Kia Just Unveiled the 2026 EV4 — And It’s Looking Sharp

Kia is back at it — this time with a sleek new sedan that’s 100% electric.

Say hello to the 2026 Kia EV4, the brand’s first-ever all-electric global sedan, revealed at the company’s EV Day event in South Korea.

What Makes the EV4 Stand Out?

Unlike Kia’s previous electric SUVs like the EV6 and EV9, the EV4 brings a lower, sportier profile and a design that turns heads. It’s a compact electric sedan that feels like a blend of retro and futuristic — boxy in shape, but clean and modern where it counts.

Some quick highlights:

• Estimated range: Over 300 miles

• Expected pricing: Around $35,000

• Launch date: End of 2025

• Interior: Minimalist, driver-focused, and built for comfort

And yes, it’s coming to the U.S. market.

Built on the Same Platform as the EV6

The EV4 shares the same E-GMP platform that powers the EV6 and EV9, but with a twist. It’s built for efficiency, not just performance. Kia says it’s targeting people who want a stylish EV that fits into their daily life — and their budget.

While full specs haven’t been released yet, we know it’ll offer single- and dual-motor options, and most likely support ultra-fast charging — a signature of the E-GMP platform.

A Bold Move Into the Electric Sedan Market

Kia is stepping into new territory here. The EV4 will go up against the Tesla Model 3, Hyundai Ioniq 6, and Polestar 2 — but at a price point that could seriously shake things up.

And for drivers who’ve been waiting for a more affordable, non-luxury EV with some real design flair? This might be it.

The EV4 isn’t just another electric sedan — it’s a signal that Kia is aiming for mass appeal in the EV space. It's got the looks, the projected range, and the price tag to back it up.

We’re looking forward to seeing how it performs once it hits the streets.
