Best Mainstream Electric Car 2025 – Kia EV3

The electric car market is growing and maturing rapidly, so we’re seeing more and more EVs that are highly cost-effective but still pack in loads of tech and a cutting-edge driving experience. The Kia EV3 is a prime example, which is why it’s been chosen by owners as the Best Mainstream Electric Car of 2025.
The EV3 has won ahead of two brilliant EVs in the shape of the very practical Volkswagen ID.7 Estate and the stylish Peugeot e-3008. The Kia is so good, in fact, that it’s turning people on to electric cars, with one owner explaining that it’s their “first time going electric…it’s quirky, futuristic and easy to drive.” A stunning electric car and an outstanding effort from Kia. Well done. Return to the New Car Awards homepage
