کیا EV3 نماد پیشرفت است. در 2022، با کیا نیرو EV آشنا شدیم، یک کراس اوور الکتریکی بسیار competent با برد قوی، کارایی بالا و فضای زیاد. مستقیما وارد لیست توصیه های آسان ما شد.

حالا، فقط چند سال بعد، کیا آن خودرو را با EV3 seemingly redundant کرده، که اندازه مشابه دارد اما 30 درصد برد بیشتر، شارژ سریع تر و هزینه نه بیشتر بلکه کمتر.

EV3 بسیاری از فروش های نیرو EV را جذب خواهد کرد اما دقیقا جایگزین آن نمی شود. خودرو قدیمی remains on sale، چون نیرو هیبرید هم هست، و کیا expects نیرو EV remain popular با fleets.

برای 35,995 پوند می توانید نسخه long-range EV3 بخرید، capable of claimed 375 مایل – both more range و less money از any direct rival.

آن argument alone کافی برای sell a lot of EV3s خواهد بود، اما نیاز به broader appeal برای do well در Autocar road test.

ما فکر می کنیم کیا EV3 یک خودرو الکتریکی hugely competent است، به such a degree که we've named it Best Electric Car در جوایز اتوکار 2025. بخوانید تا find out why...

کیا EV3

Rationally compelling، اما not game-changer it seems at first

خوب: باتری بزرگ برای کلاس، infotainment و usability عالی، جادار، driveability و regen control outstanding

بد: ADAS awful، bland به drive، expensive روی PCP

طراحی و استایل

مزایا: استایل bold، پلتفرم E-GMP proven به strong base، گزینه باتری بزرگ

معایب: 800V و 200kW-plus charging نمی گیرد

با اندازه 4310mm در طول، EV3 squarely در فولکس واگن ID 3 و کوپرا بورن twins هدف گرفته، با similar stature که taller و stockier از هاچبک اما not quite proper SUV.

جالب، کلاس busy است که also includes کونا الکتریک از neighbour هیوندای، اشکودا الروک و اسمارت #1. Meanwhile، رنو leads two-pronged attack با slightly smaller رنو مگان و slightly bigger سنیک.

EV3 بدنه slippery برای 0.26Cd drag coefficient دارد اما all sorts of other hidden eco features در خودرو وجود دارد، including shrunken HVAC system.

جالب، کلاس divided over whether به use front- or rear-wheel drive: VW و Geely group cars primarily rear-driven هستند، whereas هیوندای/کیا و رنو cars use front-wheel drive.

از آنجایی که EV3 بر اساس پلتفرم E-GMP است، like کیا EV6 و هیوندای آیونیک 5، expect می کنید موتور در rear داشته باشد، اما کیا جدید actually uses simplified version که evidently boot space و cost higher up priority list از ultimate ability. Dual-motor و GT versions might well follow later, however.

That's entirely understandable، و as a result EV3 driven توسط single front motor و trades bigger cars’ 800V architecture برای more conventional 400V one. It means DC charging capped در 102kW برای standard-range model و 128kW برای long-range one.

Less limited باتری size است: EV3 با choice از two packs می آید: 58.3kWh و 81.4kWh. That's pretty big، و only VW Group cars something similar ارائه می دهند. موتور same در both versions است، putting out 201bhp.

Visually، EV3 clearly follows lead bigger کیا EV9، با very blocky, chiselled shape و vertical headlights. در 1570mm، fair bit taller از Born یا Megane است. Nonetheless، quite favourable drag coefficient از 0.26 maintains، که trumps those rivals.

دو appearance packages، Air و GT-Line، quite distinct look. Air cleaner و more harmonious است، whereas GT-Line (like our test car) more ‘sporty’ bits tacked on دارد.

داخلی

مزایا: کنترل های user-friendly، جادار، صندلی های comfortable، infotainment clear, fast, easy to use; good phone app، networked functions free برای seven years

معایب: نسخه های Air worse perceived quality دارند، prevalence synthetic leather، no physical cursor device برای infotainment

مانند exterior، داخلی EV3 lead big brother EV9 را follows. در glance، effectively same design است، just shrunken down. Like so many modern cars، dashboard dominated توسط large, curved screen که incorporates digital gauge cluster و multimedia system. Between two main parts smaller section است که dedicated به climate controls، making them permanently و easily accessible.

Below main screen small اما sensibly chosen selection physical buttons می نشیند که give you quick access به primary infotainment functions as well as cabin temperature, fan speed و air distribution. Some rendered as part از touch-sensitive section trim، others come as rocker switches set در ‘aluminium’ trim strip. Pieces fabric و two-tone colour scheme complete lounge-like ambience.

Many interior materials recycled هستند، و QR code روی dashboard می تواند scanned شود به show off more از eco-credentials EV3، including what parts made از recycled materials.

It's pretty convincing، با just few caveats: کیا proudly claims it's expunging leather از cars، اما در EV3 simply replaced it با synthetic version، که shows lack of creativity در materials department.

می توانید cloth seats داشته باشید، اما only روی Air trim، که also replaces some soft mouldings با hard plastic. Air still high-quality cabin با very generous level equipment دارد، اما good idea است به have poke around one در dealership به decide whether find that trade-off acceptable.

هرچند upholstery disappointing است، seats themselves very comfortable هستند. در our GT-Line test car، driver's side electrically adjustable و features tilt adjustment و lumbar support. You don’t sit particularly low، و steering column comes out در bit of angle، اما no shortage head room و driving position comfortable است.

Interior space undoubtedly impressive. Open, airy cabin plenty of storage space فراهم می کند، حتی if centre console could have been even more practical با few more bins و shelves. Adults no shortage leg room در back دارند، و thanks به somewhat high-set front seats، can even put feet beneath.

Cupra Born یا VW ID 3 slightly more rear space still دارد، اما کیا compensates با bigger boot که remarkable amount underfloor storage دارد. One strange lapse: luggage cover gap حدود 10cm به rear seatbacks leaves. This would make sense اگر rear seat adjustable بود، که نیست.

چندرسانه ای

سیستم multimedia کیا shared با هیوندای، save برای some unique fonts و graphics، و وقتی this good، that's something to be pleased about. Graphics crisp و clean، و screen quickly به inputs respond می کند. No physical cursor device، اما thanks به sensible menu layout و good selection shortcut buttons (including few customisable ones)، you don’t really miss one.

Wireless Apple CarPlay و Android Auto هست، و they’re well integrated into system. Built-in navigation clear و good, up-to-date traffic information دارد، meaning you don’t just default به Google Maps.

اپلیکیشن smartphone کیا easy به pair با car و core functions well work، letting you remotely monitor و control charging، send destinations به navigation و check that car still where left it. Kia Connect (all car’s networked functions) free برای seven years، whereas many manufacturers just free trial از few months ارائه می دهند.

موتورها و عملکرد

مزایا: quick enough، driveability و regen control outstanding، short braking distances در dry و wet

معایب: loses bit of performance وقتی battery very low، could be quicker

Despite bigger battery و higher kerb weight (1858kg as tested) از نیرو EV، EV3 sticks با 201bhp motor. That may be slightly disappointing، و indeed EV3 bit slower در straight line از lighter نیرو EV (1739kg)، اما 7.6sec 0-62mph time still more than quick enough برای mainstream crossover. هرچند shorter-range rivals we tested، such as 58kWh Cupra Born و Smart #1 lighter، swifter still، EV3 stays ahead lighter Scenic.

وقتی tested با 6% battery charge remaining (که less از most our low state of charge tests)، EV3 some performance lost، particularly above 70mph. Even so، only missed quoted 0-62mph time توسط half second (8.4sec versus 7.9sec)، so it’s nothing to worry about.

Even وقتی overspeed warning off می کنید، car bings وقتی limit changes. This might seem like minor annoyance، اما years driving cars taught me که such noise means something awry، triggering brief Pavlovian panic response. This gets wearing over time.

We've not performance tested standard-range 58.3kWh version as کیا doesn't expect big seller در UK، اما unusually، این entry-level model actually fastest version است. According به Kia's own figures، 0.1sec off Long-range version's 0-62mph time shaves چون same motor uses، اما weighs 85kg less.

با EVs، drivability rather than outright performance matters. As usual، کیا this nailed دارد، particularly وقتی comes به control over regenerative braking. While other manufacturers might let choose بین low و high regen mode، کیا allows drive car exactly how want، using steering wheel paddles.

سه basic levels برای choose وجود دارد. In addition، holding left paddle toggles one-pedal driving (while still letting vary severity regen)، while holding right paddle activates adaptive mode. All them progressive و predictable هستند.

وقتی do choose به use brake pedal، EV3 same easy drivability maintains. Pedal feel slightly soft at top اما very easy به modulate. System very safe during emergency stops as well proves. 1.5m less از Renault Scenic به stop از 70mph در dry needed. Wet performance even more impressive: 50.5m از 70mph 10m shorter از most cars we test.

سواری و هندلینگ

مزایا: strong wet grip; safe و composed در all circumstances، advanced stability control، quiet at cruise، standard adaptive cruise control; blindspot monitoring well works

معایب: not especially sharp, communicative or fun روی road، awful ADAS systems: poorly calibrated, no option برای standard cruise control; some systems hard به disable

کیا EV6 proved one of keener driver’s cars کلاس وقتی launched، اما switch EV3 به front-wheel drive signals different set priorities. Not that front-wheel-drive cars can’t sharp handlers باشند، of course; it’s just that EV3 isn’t one of them.

It grips well و body doesn’t roll excessively، اما indirectness به front axle EV3 وجود دارد که makes tad lethargic وقتی tip into corner با some enthusiasm. Steering also doesn’t notably weight up as put some load through chassis.

Our test car very impressive grip و stopping distances در wet داشت اما felt little indirect در dry. That sounds like result tyre optimised برای wet conditions، و wonder what like روی different rubber.

مهندسان کیا seem به focused mainly روی safety و stability، که hard به argue با در car like this، of course. Traction و stability control system در particular much improved از نیرو EV. Where that can easily spool up inside wheel وقتی driver accelerates hard از tight junction، systems EV3 carefully mete out power so traction never broken، و driver doesn’t really feel intervention.

EV3 this composure even وقتی provoked روی dry و wet handling tracks maintains، و again proves به wet-weather specialist با very strong grip روی slippery roads. System can turned off entirely، at which point EV3 becomes surprisingly keen به lift-off-oversteer روی track.

راحتی و isolation

وقتی editor Mark Tisshaw first drove EV3 در South Korea، said suspension soft side اما lacking در some control. European cars firmer، که seems strange given state UK roads. کیا opted برای fairly middle-of-the-road set-up که absorbs large bumps quite nicely بدون becoming floaty.

Ride over surface imperfections suffers، however. It’s not terrible given 19in wheels، اما can quite fidgety، sending slight shivers through car وقتی hit corrugations. Cupra Born feels bit firmer overall، اما better damped و more composed. Thanks به 17in wheels با taller tyre sidewalls، Air version slightly better cushioned.

اخبار کیا EV3

تایرهای test car marked ‘Sound Absorber’، که Hankook uses به refer به range technologies به reduce road noise، including particular tread design و layer foam inside tyre. It appears به work، as EV3 proved just as quiet as EV6 we tested few weeks ago، با reading 68dBA در 70mph.

رانندگی assisted

As also highlighted در road tests هیوندای سانتافه و کونا، assisted driving systems کیا و هیوندای possibly worst از any major established car maker.

Adaptive cruise control not as smooth as other manufacturers’ systems و cannot switched به standard cruise control. Semi-autonomous lane following can toggled easily با steering wheel button.

Lane keeping assistance effectively unusable روی countryside roads اما thankfully easily disabled توسط holding steering wheel button. Overspeed warning can easily muted توسط holding volume button روی steering wheel، اما وقتی do this still beep every time speed limit changes. To disable this، need به turn off speed limit recognition system fully، توسط diving into menu.

Worst all driver attention monitor است، که uses intrusive camera روی steering column. System incredibly overzealous، can only disabled در sub-menu و re-enables روی start-up. Even وقتی turned off، system can falsely accuse you از falling asleep.

MPG و هزینه های running

مزایا: competitive list prices، باتری بزرگ برای class gives long range، consistent rapid-charging performance

معایب: expensive روی PCP، expensive trim levels

EV3 well priced، at least at first glance. Range kicks off در 32,995 پوند، که buys car در Air trim با small battery. It’s actually very well equipped، با heated seats، front و rear parking sensors، adaptive cruise control و more، و it’s still rated برای 270 miles range.

برای extra 3000 پوند، upgrading به much bigger battery seems like no-brainer. اما به get plusher interior materials، need به choose GT-Line (something most people will do, thinks کیا)، که costs 3500 پوند more، بدون adding much additional equipment. That doesn’t seem like good value، هرچند در 39,495 پوند still very competitive با long-range versions VW ID 3، Cupra Born، Skoda Elroq و Renault Scenic.

There’s front boot، که applaud، اما در 25 litres so small حتی charge cable needs forcefully stuffed there. Opening requires pull lever در interior. How hard به put hidden button روی bumper، or at least روی key fob?

One potential disappointment پمپ حرارتی 900 پوند option است، و then only روی GT-Line S (42,995 پوند)، top trim level.

As often case با Kias، اما، EV3 quite expensive روی PCP deal. روی same terms (6000 پوند down، three years/10,000 miles per year)، GT-Line costs 503 پوند per month، whereas Renault Scenic 87kWh Techno only 369 پوند، با other long-range options somewhere in between.

Estimated usable battery capacity 78kWh puts آن on par با long-range versions VW Group EVs. We had temperatures around 10deg C برای course our test، و در normal driving range between average و everyday figures (265 و 304 miles) seems realistic. Miles per kWh figures در high 3s respectable، اما certainly don’t move efficiency game on.

Driving Long-Range و Standard-Range versions back-to-back در event، we found former more efficient، اما only توسط 0.1mpkWh، که marginal و can't make up برای much smaller battery. می توانید expect به get around 190 miles از Standard-Range car در winter.

Same true برای rapid-charging speed EV3. Official peak 129kW below class average، اما در charging test 120kW or more up به 70% charge maintained، که gives 'weighted average' that's on par با Renault Scenic's (150kW peak) و better از پژو e-3008's (160kW peak). Battery can also pre-conditioned، either توسط setting navigation به rapid charger یا manually. Both work well، هرچند manual option tricky به find در various menus.

Peak charging speed Standard-Range EV3 lower، در 101kW، اما because battery smaller، کیا claims که 10-80% charge takes only marginally longer (31min) از در Long-Range car (29min).

As usual، warranty کیا runs برای seven years or 100,000 miles، while battery guaranteed به retain 70% capacity برای eight years or 100,000 miles.
