Kia is preparing to expand its electric vehicle options in the Turkish market with its fully electric compact model, the EV2. The brand’s statements confirm that this new model will officially go on sale very soon.

Kia Turkey General Manager Şafak Sözcü stated that the vehicle will be on Turkish roads in August. If there are no changes to the planned schedule, the starting price of the model in the Turkish market is expected to be below 2 million TL.

Technical details and price expectation

Şafak Sözcü shared valuable information about the vehicle’s technical specifications in a program he attended. Offering a range of 450 km , the Kia EV2 will come with advanced ignition infrastructure features.

Providing explanations on the pricing strategy, Prosecutor Prosecutor stated that the EV2’s price will be positioned at a level more than 10% lower than the current EV3 model. Considering the EV3 model, which is currently sold with a starting price of 2.4 million TL, this ratio shows that the EV2 will be a more accessible option.

Kia’s future goals and new models

Kia Turkey is setting ambitious goals in the electric vehicle transformation. The company plans to achieve a total sales of 30,000 vehicles by 2026.

In line with these goals, the brand continues to expand its product range and aims to launch the Seltos model in Turkey in November. Furthermore, a sales volume of 17-18 thousand units is projected for the Sportage model alone by 2026.
