Kia launches the EV4 sedan and hatchback, featuring a bold design and cutting-edge technology, reflecting the brand's commitment to innovation in electric mobility.

Seoul, South Korea- Kia Corporation., has unveiled the EV4, showcasing both the EV4 sedan and EV4 hatchback models ahead of the brand’s second Kia EV Day event, which will be held in Tarragona, Spain.

Developed to enhance the appeal of Kia’s EV offering, targeting a broad demographic, the EV4 features a modern design and advanced technologies that resonate with lifestyle-focused buyers who are eager to explore.

Mr. Karim Habib, Executive Vice President and Head of Kia Global Design, said, “The Kia EV4 is a clear reflection of our commitment to rethink mobility, and expand the boundaries of what design can achieve. By offering both sedan and hatchback variants, we are bringing to our customers, the unique experience of modernity and practicality that defines the Kia EV family, in a way that suits their varied lifestyles and needs.”

“Offering a fresh take on the sedan, the EV4 sedan features a sleek, low nose and long-tail silhouette. The EV4 hatchback is a nimble, versatile all-rounder. Distinctive and clean, it is built to excel in any situation.”

Rooted in Kia’s ‘Opposites United’ design philosophy, the EV4 embodies a striking balance of contrasts, setting a new standard in the compact EV segment. Its dynamic profile seamlessly blends sharp, distinctive lines with bold, technical detailing, creating a unique visual identity.

The EV4 represents Kia’s forward-thinking vision for the next generation of electric sedans, introducing an innovative silhouette that breaks away from conventional EV design. Designed for drivers who value both innovation and versatility, the EV4’s styling reflects a spirit of freedom and exploration. Whether in sedan or hatchback form, its bold design ensures a commanding presence on city streets and long-distance journeys alike.

At the front, the EV4 sedan and hatchback showcase Kia’s signature EV Tiger Face, flanked by vertically oriented headlamps and the brand’s signature Star Map lighting. This combination accentuates the vehicle’s wide, sporty stance while reinforcing its refined, high-tech character.

The EV4 sedan redefines the traditional sedan form with a sleek, streamlined silhouette. Its low hood line flows seamlessly into an elongated tail design, while a unique roof spoiler enhances its premium aesthetic. Intricately machined 19-inch wheels, adorned with technical stripe patterns, further emphasize Kia’s ‘Opposites United’ design ethos. The rear design features a distinctive two-piece spoiler and vertical light units, reinforcing the vehicle’s wide stance and progressive spirit.

The EV4 hatchback, meanwhile, takes on a bold, contemporary look with crisp lines and contrasting black vertical C-pillars. Strong fenders and 19-inch machined wheels amplify its dynamic energy, while geometric lower-body patterns highlight its forward-thinking design. Its rear profile echoes the sedan’s robust proportions but introduces its own unique character, featuring sharply sculpted lines, wide-positioned taillights, and a sloping rear window that creates a clean yet powerful aesthetic.

For those seeking an even sportier edge, the EV4 GT-Line offers exclusive design enhancements. Wing-shaped front and rear bumpers create a more aerodynamic impression, while the striking triangular-motif 19-inch wheels enhance its futuristic appeal.

With its innovative design, cutting-edge details, and bold personality, the EV4 stands as a testament to Kia’s commitment to pushing boundaries in the electric vehicle space.
