Kia has revealed technical specifications for the European version of its EV5 electric SUV, which gets a different battery from the Chinese-market car launched two years ago.
It swaps the Chinese model’s lithium-iron-phosphate pack for the 81.4kWh nickel-manganese-cobalt unit that is also offered in the smaller EV3 and EV4. This is claimed to yield a range of up to 329 miles.
It can be charged at up to 120kW on a DC connection, which enables a 10-80% refill in half an hour.
