Kia's finally pricing something in the real world—a sub-$35K EV crossover with 278 miles of real range and 30-minute DC charging. V2G capability means it can feed power back to your home, which matters if you're actually living with one of these instead of just Instagram-ing it.

Kia's playing the volume game with the EV2, a supermini-sized electric crossover that slots below the EV6 and actually delivers real range numbers instead of marketing fiction. At sub-£25k with 278 miles claimed, it's the first time a mass-market EV in this class isn't asking you to pretend range anxiety doesn't exist. Renault and VW are watching this one closely.

Geely's EV subsidiary is bringing the 7GT to the UK later this year with up to 413 miles of range and a starting price that undercuts the ID.7. It's competent, practical, and exactly what happens when Chinese automakers stop playing catch-up and start competing on price. The question isn't whether it's good—it's whether dealers can actually move them before the market floods.
