Kia UK will invite customers to its nationwide ‘First Drive Weekend’ events in April, giving customers the very first opportunity to test drive the Kia EV2.
The events will run from 16 April to 27 June 2026, moving across almost the entire 190-strong Kia UK dealer network.
Each ‘First Drive Weekend’ event runs on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
Guests can pre‑book one‑hour slots, with four EV2 cars available at each location, enabling up to four simultaneous test drives.
Each appointment begins with a one‑to‑one walkaround with an EV2 product expert, offering detailed insight, a guided introduction to the EV2, and time for questions.
This is followed by a thorough half-hour accompanied test drive on a planned route.
At just over four metres long, the EV2 delivers generous interior space thanks to its dedicated EV platform, including up to 362 litres of boot capacity.
Two battery options (42.2kWh and 61.0kWh) deliver anticipated best-in-class range.
Built on Kia’s 400V E-GMP architecture, the EV2 supports DC rapid charging on both battery options, allowing the EV2 to charge from 10-to-80% in 30 minutes.
UK pricing and specifications for the Kia EV2 will be revealed soon, with first customer deliveries expected later this year.
These events are proven to help customers gain hands-on experience with the cars at a very early stage, and helping answer general questions about going electric.
With limited spaces available at each location, customers are encouraged to secure their place early via the official booking website.
