About the Kia EV5
First launched in 2025, the Kia EV5 is a refined electric SUV that competes with market heavyweights like the Tesla Model Y, Volkswagen ID.4, and Skoda Enyaq. It sits in Kia's range between the smaller Kia EV4 and larger Kia EV6.
The EV5 also sits on a 400V electric platform - the Hyundai Motor Group’s dedicated Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) tech - that’s shared with the sharply-styled Hyundai Ioniq 5.
With a Kia EV5 lease, customers can enjoy a range of up to 329 miles between charges, swift 150 kW DC rapid charging capabilities, and lounge-like levels of comfort in the cabin.
Built with European customers at the forefront of minds, the Kia EV5 also features rear seats that fold completely flat while unlocking a generous loading area of up to two metres in length - perfect for use as a relaxation space when you venture into the great outdoors.

Kia EV5 Reviews
Place the Kia EV5 alongside the Kia Sportage and it’s almost a case of spot the difference. And that is a deliberate ploy by Kia as the Sportage is the company’s best-selling car. However, the big question is can the all-electric newcomer replicate the remarkable sales success of its combustion-powered sibling? In our view, the Kia EV5 is every bit as compelling as its family-friendly stablemate.

A great experience with Select and Neil specifically. Talked me through all the process and how it would. everything explained clearly and always on hand for any questions. A nice call post delivery too to check all was ok. 2 week process from initial call to delivery of vehicle. highly recommended.
Liam really helpful in sourcing, specifying, arranging and keeping me informed. Car arrived at right time with good handover- also needed document to take it abroad all sorted in a day.
As always service from David Shaw from quote to delivery is great, no problem too small, answers any queries speedily to avoid delay in the process. Highly recommed.
