Kia EV2 reveal set to kick off 2026
Kia will kick off a host of new car launches in 2026 with the reveal of its production EV2 at the Brussels Motor Show.
The electric B-segment SUV is set to be exclusive to the European market and will be revealed on January 9th. Kia’s EV2 will go up against other mini SUVs like the Jeep Avenger, Renault 4 and Citroen e-C3 Aircross, and models will be built at the brand’s AutoLand factory in Žilina, Slovakia.
The Kia Concept EV2
Kia gave a glimpse into how the EV2 will look when it revealed the Concept EV2 back in February as part of Kia EV Day.
The brand says its new EV2 “combines emotional design with modern technology and connectivity” and contains “smart EV features and a roomy, adjustable space.”
Marc Hedrich, President & CEO of Kia Europe, said that the EV2 represents Kia’s “commitment to make electric mobility truly accessible to a broader audience – without compromise.”
Alongside the EV2 in Brussels, Kia will also showcase its GT versions of the EV3, EV4 Hatchback, and EV5.
The 2026 Brussels Motor Show takes place from January 9 to January 18.
