Kia is getting ready to release a more affordable electric SUV in 2025. They want more people to have electric cars without giving up safety and cool design. Even though we don’t know all the details about how far it can go or what features it has, this new model is going to compete directly with the Tata Nexon EV. People are talking about the best version of the Kia SUV having a range of about 475 kilometers, putting it in direct competition with the Tata Nexon. Kia, known for doing well with its fancy EV 6, is making plans to stay strong in the electric car market.

Kia’s Plan for Electric Cars
In 2022, Kia had a big share (37 percent) in the fancy electric car category (for cars costing 50 lakh and more). But this year, because more companies are making electric cars, Kia’s share dropped to 20 percent. To bounce back, Kia is adding more electric cars to its collection. Along with the new affordable electric SUV, Kia will also bring the popular EV9 car to India next year. This move matches the increasing interest in electric cars in India because the government is supporting electric cars and more people care about the environment. Kia hopes that by offering a not-too-expensive electric SUV with a good range, they can get more people interested and become an even bigger part of the Indian market.
