The Kia EV5 electric SUV could be the biggest moment in the history of the brand in Australia!

With a fully electric drivetrain, new practical midsize SUV design and a very different take on things compared to the Sportage, and chances are it won't be much more money than it, either.

Kia is targeting a sub-$60K AUD starting price for it, with Air, Earth and GT-Line models to be offered. Single-motor FWD and dual-motor AWD will be offered, and you can expect an EV driving range of up to 600km, with an 88kWh LFP battery from BYD to be offered.

The interior also has a few amazing tricks and design finishes, but the big thing will be what the model range shapes up like, and what it costs... but tell me your thoughts on what it should be priced at in the comments below!

I am aiming to review every new car on the market that people actually buy, to help new-car customers like you, or curious car enthusiasts (maybe also like you) get the right steer when it comes to choosing a new set of wheels.

If you're looking for a car for yourself, monitoring the market and hunting for the latest info, or even if you've just bought your new car and you're looking to see what experts like me think about it, The Right Car will offer you something of value.
