Tapping the steering wheel paddles lets you switch in multiple stages between almost no regenerative braking effect to virtually one-pedal driving.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&rsquo;s The Interior Like?<\/h2>\n<section class=\"type:slideshow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" data-src=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" alt=\"\\\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/driven-kia-ev3-is-everything-we-love-about-the-ev9-just-smaller\/\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"><\/section>\n<p>If you&rsquo;re a fan of the way Kia has shrunk the EV9&rsquo;s exterior styling down to work on the EV3, you&rsquo;ll love the smaller car&rsquo;s cabin, too. As on the three-row SUV, you get a pair of 12.3-inch screens, one for the instruments and a second that&rsquo;s a touchscreen, separated by a smaller display used to operate some of the climate control functions.<\/p>\n<p>It looks great and works well with a couple of minor exceptions. One is that the main touchscreen is a bit of a stretch away and the second is that the climate section is partially hidden behind the steering wheel, though you do at least get hard keys on the dash to tweak the temperature.<\/p>\n<p>        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241.jpg\" data-type=\"inarticle-image-block\"> <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\n                <picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241.webp 2450w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-400x225.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-1536x863.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/webp\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-2048x1151.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, (max-width: 1535px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 1000px, (max-width: 300px) 600px, (max-width: 200px) 200px\"><\/source><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241.jpg 2450w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-1536x863.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-2048x1151.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, (max-width: 1535px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 1000px, (max-width: 300px) 600px, (max-width: 200px) 200px\" alt=\" 2025 Kia EV3 Review: Everything We Love About The EV9 Made More Affordable&nbsp;\" width=\"2450\" height=\"1377\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Kia-Ev3-grey-interior-Dec17241-1024x576.jpg\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\">\n                <\/picture>\n            <\/figure>\n<p>        <\/a>  <\/p>\n<p>Another minor complaint is just how grey it is inside the Air-spec cars (shown above).

The result is slower charging speeds, the SR battery models charging at a maximum of just 101 kW and needing 29 minutes to fill from 10-80 percent, while the LR pack can accept a slightly better 128 kW so only needs 2 additional minutes to go from 10-80 despite its bigger capacity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2024\/10\/skodas-new-elroq-ev-aims-for-the-mainstream-sweet-spot\/\">Skoda&rsquo;s New Elroq EV Aims For The Mainstream Sweet Spot<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/skoda-elroq\/\">Skoda Elroq<\/a> charges at between 145-175 kW depending on the model, so can be topped up a few minutes faster, though the difference isn&rsquo;t huge.

In the EV3 it&rsquo;s built a fantastic small EV that&rsquo;s great to look at, well built, comfortable, and has a usefully large range and trunk. A dual-motor option and sporty GT model coming later will broaden its appeal, and some extra interior color and faster charging would be welcome, but most buyers looking for an affordable electric <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/suv\/\">SUV<\/a> are going to find the EV3 just fine the way it is.<\/p>\n<p>European drivers can get their hands on a an EV3 now, but America won&rsquo;t be able to buy one for at least a year, the one upside being that it will cost far less &ndash; around $30,000-35,000 when it does go on sale. And by the time the EV3 does arrive stateside, both Europe and America will also be introduced to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2024\/04\/2025-kia-ev5-bound-for-australia-but-no-u-s-launch-in-sight\/\">the bigger EV5<\/a> already on sale in China.
