KIA EV5 is a pure electric compact SUV, which is based on KIA electric vehicle special platform E-GMP, mainly for home users. The appearance of the new car adopts the brand-new design concept of Kia’s "Opposites United", and details such as chic headlights have continued, which has a very high degree of recognition. The front of the new car is surrounded by trapezoidal vents and equipped with silver guards. The bold, avant-garde and square shape is quite individual.
The side lines of the new car body are very straight, and the slightly protruding front and rear fenders are visually quite muscular. In terms of tail, the new car adopts penetrating taillights, which are simple and recognizable, and the style is similar to that of headlights. In addition, in order to echo the front enclosure design, the rear enclosure of the new car is also equipped with a relatively hard-core rear enclosure "armor" design. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4615/1875/1715mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2750mm.
The interior design concept is more oriented to home use and practicality. Two 12.3-inch full LCD instruments and a 12.3-inch multimedia screen form a screen, which is equipped with Kia’s latest generation ccNC in-vehicle infotainment system and supports OTA upgrade of the whole vehicle. At the same time, the center console retains certain physical buttons and touch buttons, and the position and size are very easy to use, which really deserves a compliment to traditional car companies. For example, under the central AVNT screen, four hidden buttons are used for start and stop, and functions such as AVNT, heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) control.
In addition, the long-life version also adds a zero-gravity relaxing seat in the driver’s seat, a central drawer-type heating and cooling incubator, a UWB digital key, and a folding table on the right side of the rear row. Active safety will also be equipped with the second generation of highway driving assistance (HDA2), blind area collision prevention assistance (BCA), rear cross collision prevention assistance (RCCA) and so on.
In terms of power, the maximum power of the new car motor is 160kW and the peak torque is 310 Nm. In terms of battery life, the new car will be equipped with 88.1kWh battery and the CLTC cruising range will be 720km. It is worth mentioning that the new car also provides an optional package of e-AWD dual-motor four-wheel drive. The maximum power of the four-wheel drive version is 233kW, the peak torque is 480N·m, and the CLTC cruising range is 630km. In addition, KIA EV5 can charge the battery from 30% to 80% in just 27 minutes, and it is equipped with external power supply (V2L) function.
Editor’s comment:
Although the domestic new energy market has been deeply involved, in the pure electric compact SUV market, products with a battery life of more than 700km are still rare, which also makes the Kia EV5 720 long-life version stand out and has almost no competitors. If you have a budget of 200,000 yuan, will you be moved by the endurance of more than 700km? I’ll see you in the comments section. (Text/car home Guo Chen)
