Kia planning to make small e-SUV in India
Having broken into top five carmakers in India in just 3 years, South Korean car major Kia wants to make it into the mainstream electric vehicle (EV) space with a small SUV EV planned for emerging markets based out of India.
According to several people in the know, the development work for a small SUV codenamed AY has kicked off which will hit the roads in 2025.
Interestingly it is not a pure EV, it is based on a flexible platform that will also offer Kia a space into the mass market petrol SUV space at the entry level.
