Kia Corporation unveiled its EV4 and Concept EV2 models at the brand’s 2025 Kia EV Day in Tarragona, Spain, strengthening Kia’s lineup to enhance the adoption and appeal of electric mobility.

Versatile and practical, the EV4 is an athletic all-rounder that represents Kia’s first electrified sedan (four-door) and hatchback (five-door), designed to navigate cities and cross continents. Launched to redefine the C-segment and shown in both sedan and hatchback body styles, the Kia EV4 represents a fresh approach to the traditional aesthetics of the sector.

As indicated by the campaign slogan ‘Your Edge in Motion’, the Kia EV4 introduces a new typology for sedans and hatchbacks. In doing so, Kia is expanding choice in an EV market traditionally focused on CUVs and SUVs.

As a core model, the EV4 also expands Kia’s award-winning EV lineup and appeals to the ‘Early Majority’ customer segment. It promotes EV adoption through a blend of practical and innovative design, technological reliability, and a flexible electric vehicle experience that meets a diverse range of customer needs.

The Concept EV2, meanwhile, is an agile B-segment electric SUV that previews an upcoming production model that will enable users to experience urban spaces in new and more immersive ways. Both vehicles cater to lifestyle-driven buyers who are eager to embrace new technology, ultimately improving productivity and opening new possibilities while focusing on smart consumption.

00:00Each ADAS feature is the result of intensive development and testing, here at the Fertsfeld, proving ground with the Kia EV4 and around the world.
00:14One of our safety features is the forward collision avoidance assist.
00:18It's a feature that prevents or reduces the impact speed as much as possible when there is no driver reaction.
00:25We simulate these scenarios using moving dummies and robotic platforms that behave like real cars,
00:31which means we can test hundreds of real-world cases in a controlled environment aligned with EuronCare products.
00:38One of our highlight features in the terms of convenience is the remote smart parking assist.
00:44With this function, the vehicle can drive itself forward and backward by pressing one of two buttons on the key.
00:52This can be especially helpful when the parking space is so tight that it is difficult to get in and out of the car.
00:59The system detects nearby objects and brakes if needed.
01:03We test in real-world light conditions, using very narrow parking slots to confirm the car's ability to recognize and react.
01:11Highway driving assist with navigation guidance, adjusts speed, maintains lane position, keeps safe distance and offers a convenient driving experience.
01:22With every test, we can gather important input to enhance the assistance of our vehicles even more.
01:29Especially with up-and-coming technological advancements, tests like these are incredibly valuable to master our craft and offer our customers the best possible ADA systems.
