Designed exclusively for the Canadian market, the 2026 Kia EV5 is an affordable yet stylish compact SUV that expands upon the engineering of Kia’s other electric vehicle offerings. Drivers looking for an EV that’s practical yet technologically-capable will appreciate how the EV5 compares to other options in the compact SUV segment. Below, we’ve put together everything drivers need to know about the upcoming 2026 EV5.
The 2026 Kia EV5 features a distinct tiger face grille, along with Kia’s signature star map lighting pattern. Eight available exterior colour options are planned, including new colours such as Magma Red and Frost Blue, never before seen on a Kia model. Three wheel options will be available, including 18-inch, 19-inch, and 20-inch sizes.
The cabin of the 2026 Kia EV5 was built so that occupants not only have room to stretch and relax, but also access features and controls without obstruction. The 2026 EV5 sports a column-mounted shifter that frees up console space, while flat folding rear seats and a front trunk provide ample room for storing cargo.
The 2026 Kia EV5 will feature two configurations in terms of performance. Standard Rage models will come equipped with a 60.3-kWh battery, designed for efficient daily performance. Long Range models are powered by an 81.4-kWh battery, built with longer journeys in mind. Both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive systems are available.
A 30-inch panoramic display provides 2026 Kia Sportage drivers with essential information when they need it most, without causing distractions. A customizable mood lighting system is also available, allowing drivers to personalize the atmosphere of the cabin as they see fit!
The 2026 Kia EV5 is expected to arrive at Canadian dealerships sometime next year. Waterloo Kia is the perfect place for Ontario drivers to shop for this vehicle once it lands!
