Auto - Rund ums Auto. Fahrberichte, Gespräche und Informationen
Speziell für den europäischen Automobilmarkt hat Kia den EV4 entwickelt, er ist der erste Elektro-Kia, der auch hier in Europa produziert wird. Ein gelungenes Design, viel Platz, auch im Kofferraum, dazu neueste Technologien inklusive KI-Assistent und Videostreaming sowie eine Segment - Spitzenreichweite von bis zu 625 Kilometer runden das Angebot ab. Und nur zur Erinnerung – der Wagen punktet mit der bekannten 7-Jahre-Kia-Herstellergarantie, dazu hat er als Elektrofahrzeug auch 8 Jahre Batteriegarantie.Darum geht es diesmal!Mit dem EV4 hat Kia ein Elektrofahrzeug speziell für Europa entwickelt, das auch in Europa, genau gesagt, in Zilina in der Slowakei produziert wird. Obwohl er in Natura größer wirkt, ordnet Kia ihn im Bereich der Kompaktwagen ein, der EV4 ist ein speziell für dieses Segment entwickeltes Volumenmodell. Power und Drive! Der EV4 basiert wie EV9, EV6 und EV3 auf der Elektroplattform E-GMP (Electric Global Modular Platform), im Fall des EV4 kommt die 400-Volt-Version zum Einsatz kommt. Die beiden zur Wahl stehenden Akkus mit 58,3 bzw. 81,4 kWh gehören zur vierten Generation der Kia-Batterietechnologie. Mit bis zu 625 Kilometern Reichweite liegt der EV4 mit Langstrecken-Akku im Spitzenbereich dieses Segments. Das Grundmodell kann mit einer Ladung seines 58,3-kWh-Akkusbis zu 440 Kilometer weit fahren (jeweils Werte für 17-Zoll-Räder). Bei beiden Varianten lässt sich die Batterie in rund einer halben Stunde von 10 auf 80 Prozent aufladen. Der Elektromotor des frontgetriebenen EV4 verfügt über einen 150 kW (204 PS) starken mit 283 Nm Drehmoment, das schon beim Start zur Verfügung steht. Das Grundmodell sprintet in 7,4 Sekunden auf Tempo 100, die Version mit großem Akku in 7,7 Sekunden. Beide Varianten sind 170 Kilometer schnell.Die Kosten!Den Kia EV4 gibt es in den Ausstattungslinien Air, Earth und GT-line zu Preisen zwischen 37.590,00 Euro und 49.440,00 Euro. Für Air und Earth sind beide Batterien verfügbar, wer den GT-line haben will, den wir im Test hatten, muss auch die 81,4-kWh-Batterie akzeptieren. Dafür bekommt er aber nicht nur einen erheblichen Reichweitensprung, sondern auch eine deutlich umfangreichere Ausstattung. Dazu gehören zum Beispiel adaptive Dual-LED-Scheinwerfer, der aktive Totwinkelassistent mit Lenk- und Bremseingriff, der Querverkehrwarner hinten, den ich grade bei Ausparken sehr schätze, auch der Frontkollisionswarner 2.0 hat eine Quer- und Gegenverkehrerkennung. Weitere Features wie der elektrisch einstellbare Fahrersitz inkl. Lendenwirbelstütze, Harman/Kardon Premium Soundsystem mit insgesamt 8 Lautsprechern und viele weitere Features rechtfertigen den höheren Preis ohne jede Frage.

En este episodio de AutoFM analizamos a fondo la seguridad del Kia EV3, uno de los SUV eléctricos más esperados del momento, con 204 CV, hasta 773 km de autonomía y pensado como coche principal para familias. Lo más importante es claro: ha conseguido 5 estrellas en Euro NCAP, el máximo nivel de seguridad, y en este podcast te explicamos por qué este modelo destaca en protección, asistentes a la conducción y seguridad activa en el día a día. Hablamos del planteamiento del Kia EV3 como coche familiar, su tamaño de 4,3 metros, su distancia entre ejes y cómo todo esto influye en la seguridad y estabilidad. También analizamos si su velocidad limitada a 170 km/h tiene impacto real en la seguridad y cómo este tipo de decisiones pueden influir en la conducción y en la percepción del conductor. Entramos en detalle en la protección en caso de impacto, especialmente pensando en familias y niños. Explicamos cómo responde el EV3 en los test de seguridad infantil, qué se valora en Euro NCAP cuando hablamos de sillas infantiles y por qué este modelo destaca como coche único para casa con un alto nivel de protección para los más pequeños. Otro punto clave es la seguridad en ciudad, donde el coche se enfrenta a peatones, ciclistas y motos. Analizamos cómo funciona la protección a usuarios vulnerables, el sistema de frenada automática de emergencia y la capacidad del EV3 para detectar y reaccionar ante situaciones de riesgo en entornos urbanos cada vez más complejos. También repasamos los sistemas ADAS del Kia EV3 como el asistente de mantenimiento de carril, el control de crucero adaptativo y la frenada automática. Explicamos cómo funcionan en la práctica, cómo ayudan a mantener el coche en su carril y cómo reaccionan ante otros vehículos o imprevistos en carretera. Por último, hablamos del sistema de conducción con un solo pedal y el frenado regenerativo inteligente, una tecnología que no solo mejora la eficiencia, sino que también aporta seguridad al facilitar una conducción más sencilla y controlada en ciudad y en el día a día.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1309: The market cools after a hot start to 2025, the New York Auto Show brings fresh product and EV momentum into focus, and NASA launches humans back toward the moon for the first time in over 50 years.March brought the new car market back down to earth, as high prices, rising gas costs, and more cautious buyers cooled Q1 sales after last year's unusually hot start.Q1 U.S. light-vehicle sales fell 4.3% YoY to 2.78 million units, with many major automakers posting declines.GM dropped 9.6%, with steep losses at Buick and Cadillac, while Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Subaru, Mazda, and BMW also lost ground.Hyundai and Kia were bright spots, both setting first-quarter records as hybrids surged.Stellantis kept its turnaround rolling with a 4.1% gain, helped by Jeep and a 20% jump at Ram, marking its third straight quarterly sales increase.Cox's Jeremy Robb summed up the mood: “Consumers haven't left the market, but they're getting more selective. Every new headline and cost increase makes them more cautious about pulling the trigger on a big-ticket item.”The New York Auto Show is back, bringing a mix of fresh, bold concepts, and future-looking EVs, giving dealers a glimpse at where product, design, and powertrains are heading next.Chrysler refreshed the Pacifica with a bold new look and trims, but notably dropped the plug-in hybrid, while still leaning on its Stow ‘n Go advantage.Kia and Subaru leaned into electrification, with the EV3 targeting ~320 miles of range and the Seltos adding a hybrid for the first time.Subaru's new all-electric, three-row “Getaway” SUV targets growing family demand for EV space and utility, with 300+ miles of range and arrival later this year.Hyundai's rugged Boulder Concept signals a move into true off-road competition, aiming squarely at Bronco and Wrangler territory.The show highlights the trend of more hybrids, more EVs, and more niche vehicles—all designed to give today's cautious buyer a reason to jump back in.NASA just launched humans back toward the moon for the first time in over 50 years, kicking off the Artemis II mission and signaling a major step toward putting astronauts back on the lunar surface.The mission kicked off with a powerful evening launch from Kennedy Space Center, marking the first time since 1972 that astronauts have blasted off on a mission bound for the moon.After launch, the crew will spend a full day testing the Orion spacecraft before committing to the multi-day trip around the moon.The mission won't land on the moon, but will loop around the far side—offering views no human has ever seen directly.This flight is a critical proving ground for future missions, including planned lunar landings and long-term moon operations later this decade.NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman said: “This is the opening act… for missions that will send astronauJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

A new RGEV medium 2.0 platform with 800V architecture enables up to 466 miles of range, or 869 miles with an optional range extender.RENAULT MEGANE TO ADD RANGE-EXTENDER OPTIONThe next-generation Renault Mégane will be offered as both a fully electric and a range-extender model, with the EREV version targeting an 870-mile total range. The new platform cuts production costs by around 40% versus current EVs, and the cabin will feature a Google-co-developed software system with future AI integration for safety and driver assistance.ALPINE SETS OUT ITS ELECTRIC A110 PLANThe next-generation Alpine A110 will launch as a battery-electric model on the Alpine Performance Platform, using an 800V architecture, dual rear motors, and targeting over 500 bhp, a sub-1.5-tonne kerbweight, and up to 373 miles of range. Alpine is aiming for a lightweight, driver-focused character closer to the current A110 than a performance EV like the Taycan, with torque vectoring recalibrating every 10 milliseconds.MICRA 52KWH GETS FULL UK EV GRANTThe Nissan Micra 52kWh now qualifies for the full £3,750 UK Electric Car Grant following a switch to a Europe-sourced battery, bringing its entry price to £23,245. The entry-level 40kWh variant retains the lower £1,500 grant, with Micra pricing starting from £21,495, and first UK deliveries scheduled for April.VOLKSWAGEN REBRANDS ID.3 SUCCESSOR AS ID.3 NEOVolkswagen will rename the ID.3 successor the ID.3 Neo, with a world premiere set for mid-April, bringing the brand's latest software including One Pedal Driving, enhanced Travel Assist with traffic light detection, and Vehicle-to-Load capability. The same software platform will extend to upcoming smaller EVs including the ID. Polo, ID. Polo GTI, and ID. Cross.VOLKSWAGEN TARGETS 50,000 JOB CUTS BY 2030Volkswagen Group plans to cut 50,000 jobs by 2030, 43% more than previously disclosed, as profits hit their lowest point since the 2016 diesel scandal due to weak China demand and US tariffs. After spending roughly €12 billion on its in-house software unit CARIAD, VW has scaled back and turned to outside partners including Rivian, committing $5.8 billion to use Rivian's software stack in future EVs starting with the ID.1 in 2027.KIA ENDS NIRO EV WITH HYBRID REFRESHKia has discontinued the Niro EV with the model's latest refresh, which launches only as a hybrid in South Korea. Kia CEO Jung Won-Jung confirmed the decision, stating the company now focuses its EV efforts on the dedicated EV3-through-EV9 lineup.MG OPENS UK ORDERS FOR S9 PHEVMG has opened UK orders for the S9 PHEV, a seven-seat SUV priced from £34,205 that offers 62 miles of electric-only range and sits in the 9% benefit-in-kind tax band. It uses a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine paired with a 24.7kWh battery supporting 7kW AC charging, undercutting the rival Chery Tiggo 9 by nearly £9,000.MG 4X BRINGS SEMI-SOLID BATTERY TO SUVSAIC has unveiled the MG 4X, an electric SUV based on the MG4 platform that features a semi-solid-state battery as standard across all trims. The battery uses manganese-based lithium-ion chemistry, reduces liquid electrolyte content to 5% for improved safety and longevity, and the MG 4X targets a CLTC range from 510 km (317 miles).BYD WEIGHS F1 AND LE MANS MOVEBYD is considering entering Formula 1 and the Le Mans World Endurance Championship, either by building its own team or acquiring an existing one, though no decision has been made. The move would complement BYD's performance brand Yangwang, whose U9 Xtreme recently set a production car speed record of 496.22 km/h at a German test track.

In the sprawling Las Vegas campus of CES last week, electric cars were shown off as spaceships and rolling tech showcases. Meanwhile in the temperate climate of Northern Europe, at the Brussels Motor Show, the star of the show came back down to earth with a little box from Kia.Launched at the 2026 Brussels Motor Show, the EV2 is a small, upright SUV-shaped EV designed squarely for Europe. It is built in Slovakia, sized for tight streets, and priced to slip under the EV3 as Kia's cheapest dedicated EV in the region.Welcome back to another bonus edition of the show, and our mini-series called The Spec Sheet which runs the numbers on new car launches.

Recenzia skvelého auta vyrobeného v Žiline, Kie EV4, a rozhovor s expertom na autopriemysel aj o tom, ako zasiahne konsolidácia verejných financií strednú triedu. Stredná vrstva si nové auto môže dovoliť čoraz menej. Expert na autopriemysel vidí dve cesty pre príjmovú skupinu do tritisíc eur: kúpu jazdeného auta alebo dlhodobý prenájom. Odpočty DPH sa museli zmeniť, na firmy si ľudia písali aj kabriolety a Porsche, hovorí Vladimír Orth v rozhovore. Koniec spaľovákov sa zrejme odkladáPlán Európskej únie zakázať nové registrácie benzínových a naftových áut od roku 2035 naráža na realitu.Svedčí o tom nielen vývoj v autopriemysle, ale aj silnejúci politický tlak. Paradoxne, práve v čase neistoty prichádzajú na trh elektromobily, ktoré sú lepšie než kedykoľvek predtým. Dôkazom je aj horúca novinka z Tepličky nad Váhom – Kia EV4, ktorú sme jazdili jeden týždeň.V dnešnej časti podcastu Autobazar.EU sme sa pozreli nielen na novú slovenskú Kiu, ale aj aktuálnu situáciu na trhu. Pozvanie do štúdia prijal Vladimír Orth, expert na autopriemysel. Prebrali sme aj tieto témy: Prečo je zníženie odpočtov DPH na nové autá takou výbušnou témou. Ako konsolidácia verejných financií dodatočne ovplyvní peňaženky majiteľov áut. Prečo sa v Európe začína prejavovať expanzia čínskych značiek, zatiaľ čo na Slovensku ani nie.TEST: Kia EV4 – Slovenská, luxusná a prekvapivo dospeláKia nám na týždenný test poskytla svoj novší prírastok, model EV4. Hoci ide technicky o hatchback, so svetlou výškou podvozka 14 cm ju môžeme zaradiť aj do kategórie nižších, dynamických crossoverov.Mali sme tú česť byť priamo pri spustení výroby v septembri v Tepličke nad Váhom, takže nami testovaný exemplár v nádhernej modrej farbe bol doslova "ešte horúci z výroby".Interiér: Luxus bez chémiePrvé, čo vás po nasadnutí zaujme – alebo skôr nezaujme – je absencia špecifickej arómy nových koncernových áut. V interiéri necítiť výpary lepidiel ani farieb. Je to zrejme dôsledok masívneho využívania recyklovaných a dlhodobo udržateľných materiálov. Napriek tomu pôsobí vnútro auta krásne, priam luxusne.Dojem čerstvosti potvrdzovali aj reakcie okolia, ľuďom sa nová Kia skutočne páčila. Vyzerá moderne, nadčasovo a úspešne sa vyhýba gýču. Nesnaží sa za každú cenu kričať "som elektromobil". Namiesto prvoplánových oblín tu vidíme ostro rezané línie a agresívny výraz, ktorý osloví aj konzervatívnejšieho zákazníka. Mnohí okoloidúci ani netipovali, že ide o čistý elektromobil.Baby EV6: Dosť miesta pre rodinuPokiaľ ide o priestor, EV4 pocitovo pripomína skôr väčší model EV6, než hierarchicky bližšie postavený model EV3. Cítiť to najmä na hodnotnom spracovaní interiéru a jazdnom komforte.Funkčne sú si tieto vozidlá veľmi blízke, rozdielna je najmä veľkosť. EV6 je podstatne dlhšia, ale priestor v prvom aj druhom rade je veľmi porovnateľný.Úžitková hodnota EV4 hatchback bez problémov pokrýva bežné rodinné potreby. Kufor má kapacitu 459 litrov, v interiéri je množstvo odkladacích priestorov, miesto pre zavesenie oblečenia, nechýba ani zadná stredová opierka. Praktickosť dopĺňa nosnosť strechy 80 kg a možnosť ťahať brzdený príves do 1 tony.Technologický náskok Kie v praxiV čom Kia skutočne exceluje, je technologická výbava. Asistenčné systémy sú spoľahlivé nielen na diaľnici, ale aj v meste. Udržiavanie v strede jazdného pruhu zvláda aj ostrejšie zákruty v hustej premávke nadštandardne dobre.Špeciálnu pochvalu si zaslúžia výkonné svetlomety. Podľa našich skúseností osvetľujú vozovku (najmä v noci na diaľnici) dokonca efektívnejšie než pri modeli EV6.Veľkým plusom je funkcia V2L (Vehicle-to-Load). Vďaka 230 V adaptéru na nabíjací konektor...
Jan Lang og Christian Schacht er taget til elbilmessen i Herning, hvor kinesiske mærker som Leapmotor og Exlantix forsøger at tiltrække opmærksomhed med biler, der lover ekstremt meget udstyr og teknologi for pengene. Samtidig får danske bilkøbere en uventet gave: afgiftsstigningen på elbiler bliver alligevel ikke til noget. Elbilmessen i Herning summer af nysgerrighed, nye mærker og skarpe priser. Jan Lang og Christian Schacht rapporterer direkte fra messehallernes tætte luft af ny lak og store ambitioner. De fortæller om de kinesiske mærkers offensiv, især Leapmotor og Exlantix, som begge håber at kunne stjæle opmærksomheden fra de etablerede europæiske producenter. På papiret får man nu lang rækkevidde, hurtig opladning og højt komfortniveau til priser, der engang virkede urealistiske. Og selv om Skyworth slet ikke står i Herning, er det alligevel mærket, som alle taler om. Den kommende el-SUV på størrelse med Tesla Model Y til minibilpris er ugens mest opsigtsvækkende nyhed, et tydeligt tegn på, at priskrigen i elbilmarkedet tager fart. Samtidig er der spændende nyheder fra Kia og Toyota. Midt i det hele kigger Mads Rørvig, direktør i Mobilitet Danmark, forbi Bilradio-studiet og fortæller om regeringens beslutning om at aflyse den planlagte afgiftsstigning på elbiler. En politisk aftale, der giver ro på markedet og en kærkommen lettelse for både forbrugere og bilbranche. Til sidst samler Bilradio op på messens største overraskelser, de mest lovende modeller og de biler, der stadig mangler det sidste for at blive rigtige danskerfavoritter. Ugens emner: Kinas offensiv: De kinesiske mærker fylder i Herning. Leapmotor og Exlantix forsøger at stjæle opmærksomheden med biler, der giver usædvanligt meget for pengene. Ugens vildeste bil: Skyworth står ikke på messen, men er alligevel ugens mest omtalte. En stor el-SUV på størrelse med Tesla Model Y til minibilpris. Kia-offensiv: Kia opruster med flere nye elbiler. EV4, EV5 og EV3 skal dække hele prisspektret og presse konkurrenterne fra både Kina og Europa. Toyota rykker: Flere nye elbiler er på vej med længere rækkevidde og lavere priser end tidligere. Afgifter: Den planlagte afgiftsstigning på elbiler bliver aflyst. Mads Rørvig fra Mobilitet Danmark forklarer, hvad aftalen betyder for bilkøberne.

Auto - Rund ums Auto. Fahrberichte, Gespräche und Informationen
Beim Kia EV3 handelt es sich um einen vollelektrischen Kompakt-SUV, der Autokäufern, die noch zwischen Verbrenner und E-Auto schwanken, die Entscheidung erleichtern soll. Mit seiner Reichweite, seinem Gepäckraumvolumen und Platzangebot im liegt er im Spitzenbereich des Segments. Wir schauen uns mal an, was er reichweitenmäßig zu bieten hat. Und da kann er schon mit seiner kleineren Batterie überzeugen. Darum geht es diesmal!Ende 2024 wurde der Kia EV3 eingeführt, er hat natürlich nicht zufällig Gemeinsamkeiten mit dem Kia-Flaggschiff EV9. Und ähnlich wie der große Bruder ist auch der EV3 auf Trophäenjagd. Dazu gehören bereits die Titel „World Car of the Year 2025“, „Goldenes Lenkrad 2024“ (Kategorie „Bestes Auto unter 40.000 Euro“) und nicht zu vergessen die renommierten Designpreise iF Design Award 2025 und „Red Dot: Best of the Best 2025“, die Topauszeichnung des renommierten Designwettbewerbs. Power und Drive! Den Kia EV3 gibt es mit zwei verschieden großen Akkuvarianten. Mit 58,3 kWh und mit 81,4 kWh, jeweils als Kraftquelle für den Frontantrieb FWD. Die Leistung beträgt bei beiden Akkuvarianten 150 kW (204 PS), die Reichweite ist natürlich unterschiedlich. 436 Kilometer sind mit der kleineren Batterie drin, bis zu 605 Kilometer mit der größeren. Welche Version für Sie die richtige ist, hängt von Ihren Fahrgewohnheiten ab. Für die Beschleunigung dürfte das aber egal sein, sie liegt zwischen 7,5 und 7,9 Sekunden für den Spurt von 0–100 km/h. Und auch in der Spitze macht es keinen Unterschied, beide sind 170 Kilometer schnell. Selbst für die Ladedauer spielt die Entscheidung keine wirkliche Rolle, bei beiden Varianten lässt sich die Batterie in rund einer halben Stunde von 10 auf 80 Prozent aufladen. Dass die Fahrweise einen starken Einfluss auf die Reichweite hat, ist klar. Kia hat deshalb einen neuen „Driving Range Guide“ entwickelt. Er zeigt im Kombiinstrument die maximale und minimale Reichweite an, die je nach Fahrstil erreicht werden kann, sowie die geschätzte Reichweite auf der Grundlage des bisherigen Fahrverhaltens. Bei effizienter Fahrweise ist die Anzeige grün. Die Kosten!Die Preisskala beim KIA EV3 beginnt bei 35.990,00 Euro für die Einstiegsversion Air mit 58,3-kWh-Batterie, 48.690,00 Euro sind für die Topversion GT-Line mit 81,4-kWh-Batterie fällig. Für den Preisunterschied ist natürlich auch die Ausstattung relevant. Die größere Batterie selbst schlägt mit 5.400 Euro zu Buche.

Today, we explore the surprising interest in Chinese EVs among young Americans, Kia's launch of a new compact electric SUV amid cooling EV demand, and Yoshi Mobility's innovative mobile fast charging solution for EVs.Show Notes with links:A recent survey by AutoPacific reveals that younger Americans are increasingly open to purchasing vehicles from Chinese brands, despite privacy worries.35% of respondents aged 18 to 80 would consider a Chinese car.76% of those under 40 are open to buying a Chinese vehicle, compared to only 26% of those over 60.Ed Kim, President of AutoPacific, attributes this trend because it's easier to see what's happening in other parts of the world, saying “Social media has simply just made the world a lot smaller,”Privacy concerns are significant, with over 70% of respondents expressing worry across all age groups.Manufacturing Chinese vehicles in the U.S. could increase purchase willingness among 16% of respondents."[Negative] political connotations associated with China just don't apply to younger people," said KimKia has introduced its first compact electric SUV, the EV3, built on its dedicated EV platform, aiming to attract buyers with competitive pricing despite a cooling global EV market.The EV3 is part of Hyundai Motor Group's plan to introduce over 31 electric models by 2030.The EV3 will be priced between $35,000 and $50,000 and offers two battery options with a long-range model capable of 600 kilometers (373 miles) on a single charge.Kia plans to achieve an annual sales target of 200,000 units worldwide, although they declined to say what year that target is for.Kia aims to sell approximately 1.6 million EV units by 2030."We are making the EV3 very much accessible to our customers with the pricing level that customers are expecting for our vehicle," said Kia President Song Ho Sung.Yoshi Mobility has launched a mobile DC fast charging unit, dubbed "a supercharger on wheels," to address the need for convenient EV charging where infrastructure is lacking.The 240 kW mobile DC fast charger can provide multiple charges in a single trip.It is mounted on GM BrightDrop Zevo 600s, with more vehicles to be added through 2024.Initial customers include “major OEMs, autonomous vehicle companies, and rideshare operators” that don't yet have grid-connected EV chargers.The service can be deployed within 10 days once under contract.Full commercialization is expected by Q1 2025."We recognized a demand among our customers for convenient daily charging," said Dan Hunter, Yoshi Mobility's chief EV officer and cofounder.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email
