Kia EV Strategy – Like a lot of brands, Kia is growing their models with several EV cars. The current EV6 is perhaps my favourite everyday electric car. Minimalist and functional design, practical range and good driver engagement. 
There is the EV9 which is a large SUV, breaking boundaries and will be here soon.
But at a recent EV expo in Korea, Kia revealed plans for more models, the EV3, EV4 and EV5.
The EV3 concept is a compact SUV that is ideal for inner city urban streets.
EV4 brings an unusual design to electric sedans which redefines what is possible is style.
And the EV5 is a mid-sized SUV designed for millennial families.
Al of these embrace sustainable production techniques and extensive use of recycled materials.
By using sustainably grown products like Mycelium and Hemp Kia is doing more for the environment on a broad scale. Details matter, such as having the carpets made from 100% recycled PET or even a portion from recycle fishing nets.
Kia is demonstrating its commitment to minimize its impact on the environment when producing vehicles with the introduction of 10 must-have sustainable items for all new Kia model lines.
Dare I say it, the future looks electric at Kia
