Always nice to see another small EV arrive. And the starting price of US$29,890 isn’t terrible, though that number goes up quickly as you start adding features.

@jalefkowit oooh. That looks nice. Was thinking about switching to the EV9 when my lease on my EV6 is up since a new kid comes with lots of extra stuff to haul, especially cross-state. But this might be an alternative.
@jalefkowit I have had one of these in Ireland since April 2025 and frankly it’s the best car I’ve ever owned and I loved my Volkswagen Golf TSI back in the day. The EV3 is my first EV and I love it. It’s not flashy, but it’s reliable and gets the job done.
@jalefkowit "Oh, you want *four* wheels."
@computerchronicles In THIS economy?!?
@jalefkowit Just bought the 2017 Kia EV3 Wind as my first EV. I'd been looking for an EV to replace my 2019 Buick Encore, and this is same size. With 700 miles on it, I'm really enjoying the quieter, cleaner ride.
