KIA EV5 2024- Walkaround, New Zealand arrival.
HE new KIA EV5 recently toured Kia dealerships throughout New Zealand.I checked it out at Rotorua Kia. The EV5 on display was a demonstrator, with factory stock arriving mid-year. 📆
The Kia EV5 is a mid-sized SUV, with similar design stylings to the bigger Kia EV9. Similar in size to Kia Sportage.
The EV5 is built on a dedicated EV platform called N3 eK. This is a different platform to the EV6 and EV9, which are built on the E-GMP platform.
⚡️ The EV5 is based on a 400-volt electric architecture rather than the E-GMP 800-volt archetecture, meaning its charging speeds will be slower but still capable of accepting up to 141kW.
EV5 will be able to accept over the air updates, with a Kia Connect phone app.
