Discover the All-New Kia EV5 — A Next-Generation Electric SUV Built for Canada
Kia is expanding its electric lineup with a bold and highly practical new SUV designed for everyday life and adventurous drives alike, the Kia EV5. This all-electric compact SUV represents Kia’s vision of accessible, smart electrification for families, commuters, and drivers who want capability, comfort, and style without compromise.
A Bold, Modern Design
The EV5’s exterior design exemplifies Kia’s progressive “Opposites United” philosophy, blending sophistication with everyday practicality. The front end features a distinctive EV-specific “tiger face” lighting signature, paired with a sculpted body that enhances aerodynamic efficiency and presence on the road. Available wheel sizes from 18″ to 20″ and eight exterior colour options, including exciting new hues like Magma Red and Frost Blue, ensure there’s a look to suit every taste.
Spacious, Tech-Forward Interior
Inside, the EV5 offers a family-friendly cabin with modern technology and thoughtful design details. A panoramic 30-inch digital display integrates both the instrument cluster and infotainment into a single seamless screen, making it easy to stay connected and informed while driving. The interior also incorporates eco-friendly materials, reflecting Kia’s commitment to sustainability throughout the vehicle.
Practical features include generous cargo space, flat-folding rear seats, and even a front trunk (frunk) for additional storage, making it versatile enough for school runs, weekend gear, or everyday errands.
Flexible Power and Drive Options
The EV5 adapts to different driving needs with multiple powertrain options. Buyers can choose between a standard-range battery and a long-range battery, paired with either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive configurations, giving drivers flexibility for both city traffic and highway travel.
Importantly for Canadian drivers, the EV5 is equipped with the North American Charging Standard (NACS) port, which ensures compatibility with a growing network of DC fast chargers across the country. That means more freedom to charge quickly and conveniently on longer trips.
Designed with Everyday Life in Mind
Whether you’re navigating winter roads or heading out on a summer road trip, the EV5 is engineered for real-world utility and comfort. Its SUV proportions provide confident handling and a higher seating position, while the cabin layout balances refinement with practicality.
Coming to Dealerships in Spring 2026
The Kia EV5 is set to launch in Canada in Spring 2026, with initial trims available then and additional configurations arriving later in the year. It’s part of Kia Canada’s broader effort to make electric-vehicle ownership more accessible, enjoyable, and tailored to Canadian lifestyles.
