Switching to a Kia Electric or Hybrid vehicle is easier than you might think. Kia offers a broad array of models with Hybrid, Plug-In Hybrid or Electric powertrains. Discover their benefits and which is best for you
There are many reasons to choose the Kia Electric and Hybrid Range. The 7 year warranty, the huge choice of vehicles and engines, and our electric vehicle heritage. But you might find the main one is, they’re great to drive.
Reasons to go electric
Reliably cost effective
Electric and Hybrid vehicles may have a higher purchase price but take the strong residual values and relatively low running costs into account and the proposition becomes a lot more attractive.
Range that goes the distance
Kia electrified powertrains offer truly useable range and versatility. With our Hybrids and Plug-In Hybrids, you don’t have to compromise on total range compared to conventional vehicles.
Our Electric cars offer a range of up to 328 miles (Combined WLTP testing) – more than enough for the everyday and to venture out to far-away places.
Instant performance
With clutch-less operation and instant acceleration response, our electric vehicles are genuinely fun to drive. Our EV6, with its road-hugging all-wheel drive traction system, takes you from 0-62mph in only 5.2 seconds.
Fast charging has arrived
Kia Electric Vehicles can charge in a matter of minutes, not hours. Using the predominant CCS standard for DC charging, our EV6 is capable of charging from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes.
Less tax
Good for the environment, great for lower tax. Whether you own your car or drive it for your company, Hybrid and Electric vehicles offer many tax advantages over conventional cars.
Contribute to a brighter future
Driving a Hybrid or Electric vehicle is one of the ways to help combat climate change so we safeguard our planet and children’s future.
What is a Hybrid?
Kia hybrid vehicles, or HEVs, have both a petrol engine and small battery. The battery is said to be ‘self-charging’ meaning that it is usually replenished when decelerating.
Hybrid vehicles only function in full electric mode while stationary, at low speed or when decelerating. At other times, the battery merely supports the combustion engine to get greater fuel efficiency and reach a range similar to that of regular cars.
What is a Plug-In Hybrid?
Kia plug-in hybrid vehicles, or PHEVs, allow you to drive in electric mode on most of your short journeys, while allowing you to travel much further using both petrol and electricity. They are fitted with a relatively large batter which can be charged from an external source such as a home or public charge point.
When starting from a fully charged battery, Kia PHEVs can run in fully electric mode for journeys of up to 40 miles depending on the model. On longer journeys, they boast a range similar to that of conventional cars by using their engine and battery in tandem.
What is an Electric Vehicle?
Kia electric vehicles, or EVs, run solely on electricity. This offers quiet operation, zero tailgate emissions and breath-taking performance.
Electric vehicle technology has come on leaps and bounds. With technologies like our e-GMP platform, EVs can go long distances and charge in a matter of minutes thanks to a fast-expanding and easy-to-access network of public charging stations.
Easy public charging in the UK and Europe
Whether your Kia is a PHEV or EV, you don’t need multiple apps, cards and accounts to charge on the go. Kia Charge lets you access the largest collection of public charging networks in the UK and Europe. Locate a charge point, plan a trip, access and pay - all with just one solution.
Recharge your battery, right at home
Make the best out of your EV and PHEV by charging at home. Having you own charge point installed by one of our preferred partners guarantees the best possible value and convenience.
Maintenance you can rely on
It’s easy to keep your servicing costs in check with our range of Kia Care and Kia e-Care package. Whether you pay upfront or spread your payments, your costs are fixed for your chosen period and you benefit from the expertise of our extensive network of Kia Repairers.
Low servicing costs
Electric cars also have far fewer moving parts than a traditional petrol or diesel engine, and therefore require less work when being serviced. Hybrid powertrains reduce engine strain, while regenerative braking decreases brake wear which can prolong the life of parts.
7 Year Warranty
Every Kia car comes with a class leading 7-year 100,000 mile warranty, including the battery. So you get 7 years of driving pleasure, 7 years of lower running costs and 7 years peace of mind.
Expert electric vehicle knowledge
As one of the pioneers in EV technology we’ve had time to refine and improve our EV range.
