Summary
The Kia EV2 61 kWh (MY27) is a 5-seat SUV with front-wheel drive, on sale in the UK from £24,245. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 9.5 seconds, slower than 87% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 224 miles (360 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 34% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 170th of 242 SUVs.
It uses around 3.9 mi/kWh (161 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 58 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 85 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 238 miles (383 km) at motorway speeds.
It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.
Its UK starting price works out at £108 per mile of real-world range, lower than the median for SUVs (£186 per mile).
