I can’t understand why Kia isn’t bringing the EV5 to the US. It’s the size of vehicle that sells the most outside of trucks. People buy RAV4s, CRVs, Foresters, Escapes, etc in insane quantities and this is squarely in that size range. It’s more roomy and open than my EV6 and we’d probably have bought the EV5 if it was available.
Just look at the demand for the Volvo EX30 and that’s a tiny car, but priced well. If they brought this bigger, but not big, car to the US at the same price it would clean house and sell as many as they could produce
Apparently they don’t have plans to bring it here. They launched it in an ultra competitive Chinese market instead of choosing to dominate the US market and convert untold quantities of EV buyers. So stupid IMO
This is pretty confusing. I would love to find out directly why they are holding off. There must be some market research or financial calculation that is getting them to NO.

Just a matter of time maybe?
