 KIA - KIA EV2 - mcb100
I’m running a KIA EV2 for a few weeks while it’s being launched.
So far, so good. It’s proving pretty efficient, despite me having to traverse the Pennines every day from Manchester to multiple locations on various varieties of Yorkshire - it’s showing 4.2 miles per kWh despite doing very little urban running.
KIA are pitching it against the Renaults 4 & 5, and it provides a bunch more practicality than the 5 and similar to the 4.
By summer there’ll be two battery sizes, a 42.2 kWh First Edition (the one I have) and a 61 kWh variant. Official ranges are 196 and 281 miles. Even my less than optimal commute is producing a real world range of just under 180 miles.
Comfortable, rides well, decent stereo, all good so far.
