the EV3's definitely shaping up to be a contender in that crowded compact EV segment. Kia's been hitting it out of the park lately with their electric offerings and if they nail the pricing and specs, it's going to give the EX30, Born, and Megane E-Tech a serious run for their money. They've got the tech, the design's sharp, and if they deliver on the promised range, they'll be in a strong position. Honestly, it'll come down to the details. How well the infotainment works, the real-world efficiency, and how it handles on the road. But yeah, Kia's got the potential to shake things up.
