Engine power and kerb weight are registration-weighted averages of the Kia EV3 registered in the EU/EEA in 2025 (54,136 cars), engine power from 26 countries, kerb weight from 29 countries. Source: EEA COâ‚‚ monitoring (CC BY 4.0).
Engine power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the power of the combustion engine, not the system power, and for electric cars it can differ from the peak power the manufacturer advertises.

Power by engine variant (Norway)
2,823 Kia EV3 cars registered for the first time in Norway in 2024–2025, by drivetrain and type-approved engine power. The EEA data has no trim names, so variants are told apart by power.
| Drivetrain | Power | Kerb weight | Years | Registered in Norway |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electric | 150 kW (201 hp) | 1,856 kg | 2024–2025 | 2,823 |
Power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the combustion engine, not the system output; for electric cars it can differ from the peak power in the maker’s marketing. Kerb weight is the average for the variant. Source: EEA CO₂ monitoring (CC BY 4.0), one record per car (the years EEA lists twice, 2019 to 2021, are counted once).

WLTP range by version
Type-approved WLTP range of the electric versions of the Kia EV3, as recorded for each car in the Dutch vehicle register (RDW). The table shows the median; the spread is where 80% of the cars fall.
| Power | Range | Spread | Consumption | First registered | Cars in NL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 150 kW (201 hp) | 585 km | 434–604 km | 150 Wh/km | 2024–2026 | 16,286 |
WLTP is the test cycle of EU type approval, so the same version carries the same figure across the EU/EEA. Power is the net maximum electric power from the same register. Versions with fewer than 20 cars are left out. Source: Open Data RDW (Netherlands, CC0).
