Kia EV3

The Kia EV3 arrives as a cheeky, practical electric compact that manages to feel both premium and playful, delivering crisp handling and a roomy cabin that's perfect for urban life. With smart tech, friendly styling and sensible pricing, the EV3 is the kind of car that makes switching to electric feel like a no-brainer without asking you to give anything important up.

details

Subaru Uncharted

The Subaru Uncharted is a compact electric crossover that feels at home in the city, with easy steering and Subaru’s traction helpers giving it more off‑road composure than its size suggests. It’s practical and simple to use for daily life with convenient charging, but the rear seat is snug, rear visibility suffers without a wiper, and the all‑wheel‑drive version can be thirstier on long motorway runs.
