Kia has officially announced that its compact electric SUV, the EV3, will arrive in the US market in late 2026. The vehicle, already available overseas, will feature a design similar to the current model but with an updated interior, including the removal of the controversial "chopping board" armrest. North American buyers will also have access to a new "Nightfall" appearance package. The EV3 will be offered in both standard and long-range versions, promising a significant driving range.
