SHERIDAN, WYOMING – July 24, 2025 – Kia is charging ahead with two all-new electric models that make the switch to e-mobility easier, smarter, and more stylish than ever: the Kia EV4 and EV4 Fastback. Now available to order across Europe, these innovative compact cars offer impressive range, cutting-edge connectivity, and sleek, modern design – all with Kia’s signature practicality and value.
Electric made easy for everyone
With the EV4 hatchback and EV4 Fastback sedan, Kia is bringing electric driving into the heart of the compact segment — a category that made up nearly 19% of all new car registrations in Germany last year. The EV4 is developed specifically for European needs and produced locally in Slovakia, while the Fastback is built at Kia’s dedicated EV plant in South Korea.
Both models are aimed at drivers ready to embrace electric driving without compromising on space, comfort, or performance. With ranges of up to 625 km for the EV4 and up to 633 km for the Fastback, these compact EVs meet the demands of daily life — and then some.
Roomy, practical, and made for every journey
The EV4 hatchback boasts a striking, aerodynamic design with a spacious interior and a flexible cargo area offering up to 1,415 liters of storage. The Fastback, with its elongated 4.73-meter profile, adds even more trunk space — up to 1,435 liters — and a sleeker silhouette.
Both versions offer:
- A choice between 58.3 kWh and 81.4 kWh batteries
- Fast charging from 10 to 80% in just 30 minutes
- Towing capacity up to 1,000 kg (braked)
- Intuitive one-pedal driving with i-Pedal 3.0 and energy-saving regenerative braking
Premium features from the start
Even the base EV4 Air comes generously equipped. Every model includes:
- Navigation with Kia Connect services
- Dual 12.3-inch panoramic displays
- Smart-Key system and LED headlights
- Dual-zone automatic climate control
- Extensive advanced driver assistance features
The EV4 Fastback, available exclusively with the long-range battery and in Earth and GT-line trims, adds further refinements like heated front seats, inductive smartphone charging, and automatic flush door handles.
Smart tech for smarter driving
At the heart of the EV4 is Kia’s new ccNC infotainment system, which supports video streaming, music apps, and even gaming. Three entertainment packages are available, including access to platforms like Netflix, YouTube, Disney+, and Stingray Karaoke. The top-tier “Entertainment+ (WiFi)” adds hotspot functionality for passengers’ devices.
A standout feature is the built-in AI assistant, which enhances voice control with adaptive learning — offered free for the first year. Drivers can also use the in-car payment system for services like Parkopedia, making everyday tasks simpler and more seamless.
Safety and comfort beyond expectations
Kia has equipped both models with a host of high-tech safety and comfort systems, including:
- Adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go
- Highway driving assist
- Front collision warning with turn support
- Lane keeping and lane following assistants
- Parking assist with 360° camera and remote park function
- Optional head-up display and relaxation seats
Pricing and availability
The EV4 hatchback starts at €37,590 with the standard battery, while the long-range version begins at €43,240. The EV4 Fastback, available only with the 81.4 kWh battery, is priced from €47,140.
