Having debuted the all-electric EV3 in concept form last year, Kia has now teased the production-spec model ahead of its global debut on May 23, 2024. The EV3 will be the smallest member of Kia’s EV series and is also likely to sit on the E-GMP platform like its siblings.

Tail lamp design and prominent haunches carried over from the EV3 concept unveiled last year.

 

The teasers provide a look at the headlamps and tail lamps of the model as well as a glance at look at the C-pillar design. The production car retains the boomerang-shaped LED daytime running lamps and the vertically oriented headlamps up front. The tail lamp design is also unchanged as is the floating roof design and the blacked-out element spanning the width of the tailgate. The prominent shoulder line on the rear fender and squared-off cladding around the wheels is also visible – a design carried over from the concept.

Details on the interior are yet to be revealed though expect it to be toned down quite a bit from the concept. We expect the design to be similar to other recent Kia EV series models with a wide-screen freestanding unit atop the dashboard and minimal physical buttons on the centre console.
