Long Range FWD

The Kia EV3 Long Range FWD covered 477 km at 90 km/h at around 14 °C in the range test, less than 80% of its WLTP range. Even allowing for a strong headwind, it was surprisingly less efficient than the Kona, and it coasted poorly. The ride was fairly comfortable, but the lane centring felt slightly nervous and the scroll wheels slippery, and the Harman Kardon sound system earned about seven out of ten. Thanks to the big battery the range is still decent, and the charging curve is flat.
