Derek Reilly from Nevo.ie takes a look around the exterior, interior and brings the Kia EV 4 Earth Trim 3 out for a drive. We take an in-depth look at the Kia EV4 Hatchback in the high-mid-tier Earth 3 trim. Is this the sweet spot in the EV4 lineup, and more importantly, is it the best electric hatchback on the market today? We dive into the features of this European-exclusive model, including its long-range battery, key creature comforts like heated seats, and its stylish design built on the 400V e-GMP platform. Join us for a full exterior, interior, and driving review to see if the EV4 is Kia's next runaway success.
