However, is there any good reason to still be producing 400v architectures? It's not like it slashes cell cost for the same kWh, and the pack is by far the most expensive component of the powertrain. Seems more like forced market segmentation than anything.
The truth is, the car isn't great, according to the pictures, and I don't know what new features it offers that other electric cars don't already have. Its aerodynamics don't seem very functional to me; we'll have to see the coefficient of friction. I'd rather wait and see if Tesla releases a similar, more refined product with a much larger battery capacity to travel at least 500 miles, which is what future electric cars should have, since they only get 350 miles and that's barely enough.
Yet another hideous EV abomination from KIA. They have utterly lost the plot with every single new car they have released in the last 2 years being a ugly POS.
The Kia EV4 sedan for the US was recently on show at an event in New York. This is the first all-electric sedan for the global market and is expected to launch in other regions later this year. Customers will be able to choose between three trim levels, including a range-topping GT-Line version, and is expected to have a lower starting price than another EV from the brand.
