Kia Sonet EV ready to hit the market
Business Business: The demand for electric vehicles (EVs) of Indian consumers has been increasing in the last few years. However, Tata Motors still dominates this segment. I would like to tell you that Tata Motors alone accounts for about 65% of the total EV sales in India. Seeing the increasing demand in this segment, leading automaker Kia Motors is preparing to launch new electric vehicles in the Indian market. The company’s upcoming electric car could be the Kia Sonet EV, which has been seen several times during testing on Indian roads. Let us tell you that the company is currently selling Kia EV6 and Kia EV9 in the Indian market. Learn more about the possible features, powertrain and range of Kia Sonata EV.
According to the leaked spy shots, the alloy wheels of the Kia Sonet EV are similar to the 16-inch wheels of the ICE Sonet. Additionally, the car has signature LED taillights at the rear like the ICE Sonet. However, the rear bumper of your car may be different. We are happy to announce that the latest spy pictures capture the right side and rear of the upcoming Sonet EV. However, the specifications of the next electric vehicle are yet to be revealed. Let us tell you that the Kia Sonata EV competes with SUVs like Tata Nexon EV and Mahindra XUV 400 in the market.
At the same time, this car is expected to come with a bigger battery. The battery of this car lasts for about 450 kilometers on a full charge. It is worth noting that similar to the Tata Nexon EV, Kia Motors offers both standard and long-range models at different price points. At the same time, the Kia Sonata EV will be offered with new color options to differentiate it from the ICE version. It is likely to have a new grille, unique alloy wheels and exterior updates. The Kia Sonata EV will be one of the company’s first electric vehicles and is expected to be launched in India in mid-2025.
