The all-new Kia EV3 is expected to arrive any day now, and the automaker has just released pricing for the upcoming electric subcompact SUV. Arriving as a 2027 model, the EV3 sports up to a 321-mile driving range, Tesla Supercharger compatibility, and available all-wheel drive (AWD).
The EV3 starts at a reasonable $31,385, which includes a $1,495 destination fee. That makes it Kia’s most affordable electric vehicle (EV).
Full-line pricing includes:
- Kia EV3 Light: $31,385
- Kia EV3 Wind: $36,485
- Kia EV3 Land: $39,985
- Kia EV3 GT-Line: $44,985
- Kia EV3 GT: $47,385
Front-wheel drive (FWD) is standard for the Light, Wind, and Land trims, but buyers can add AWD to the Wind for $3,700 and to the Land for $3,200. All GT-Line and GT variants come standard with AWD.
Reaching the EV3’s maximum 321-mile driving range requires stepping up to the Wind trim, which brings an extended-range 81.4-kWh battery pack. However, the good news for budget buyers is that the base Light trim level comes with quite a few upscale features for the money.
While the Light is limited to a 221-mile range, it offers dual 12.3-inch displays, navigation, 17-inch wheels, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a suite of advanced driver-assistance features, including blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alerts.
The top-of-the-line EV3 GT isn’t as ferocious as the earlier EV6 GT, but it boasts 288 horsepower and 345 lb-ft of torque, with a 280-mile driving range. Kia also offers synthetic leather and suede upholstery, a head-up display, and LED ambient interior lighting. Using a DC fast charger, the EV3 can go from 10% to 80% charged in as little as 31 minutes.
