The prestigious DrivingElectric Awards have been ongoing for 7 years, commemorating the best new electric vehicles on the market, with a judging panel of industry expert road testers.
DrivingElectric Editor, Paul Barker, says “The Kia EV3 is a superb package with vanishingly few weak spots when it comes to meeting the needs of family car buyers. It makes a fine introduction to electric cars.”
Although it's the most affordable car in Kia's electric line-up, the Kia EV3 boasts the most impressive range of the lot, with up to 375 miles* on a single charge.
President and CEO of Kia UK, Paul Philpott said: “The EV3 is an incredibly important car for Kia and its great to see continued recognition as one of the best EVs on-sale today. This Car of the Year award follows a successful January for EV3, when it claimed the second best-selling EV position, and favourite for retail customers, in the UK – evidence of how well it meets the needs of UK customers.”
This is the second year in a row that Kia have won the 'Car of the Year' Award at DriveElectric, with the EV9 taking the crown in 2024. This latest influx of awards have propelled Kia's success rate at the annual ceremony up to a total of 13 awards in seven years, which will help the EV3 to continue its triumph during its first year of sales in the UK.
