Kia has revealed the EV2, a new electric B-segment SUV that represents the brand’s entry point into its expanding electric portfolio, at the Brussels Motor Show.
The brand also presented three new GT models: EV3, EV4 and EV5.
Soohang Chang, President and CEO of Kia Europe, said: “The Kia EV2 represents a significant step in making electric mobility accessible to a broader audience.
“As our most compact EV, it blends bold design with cutting-edge advancements in charging, connectivity, and safety.
“Building the EV2 in Slovakia reinforces our commitment to Europe and ensures this model reflects the needs and expectations of drivers across the continent.”
The EV2 is available with two battery options: a 42.2kWh standard-range battery and a 61.0kWh long-range battery.
Anticipated all-electric driving ranges reach up to 317 kilometres for the standard-range version and up to 448 kilometres for the long-range version (WLTP pending).
Both versions feature a 400V architecture and deliver rapid DC fast charging. The standard-range model completes the process in 29 minutes, while the long-range versions take around 30 minutes.
For the first time in a Kia model at launch, the EV2 supports both 11kW and 22kW AC charging.
Production will begin in two phases, with the standard-range model entering production in February 2026, followed by long-range and ‘GT-line’ variants from June 2026.
Market launch timings will be confirmed closer to start of sales.
