The Kia EV3 Air might be Kia’s entry point into the EV range, but it’s far from a basic fleet car. In this video, we take a closer look at how the EV3 Air performs when assessed through a fleet lens, focusing on whole-of-life costs, real-world usability and workplace practicality. We walk through how the EV3 compares with familiar fleet favourites like the Kia Seltos and Sportage, and where the electric powertrain starts to make financial sense over a typical four-year ownership cycle. Lower energy and servicing costs play a big role, while tyre costs remain comparable thanks to the Air’s 17-inch wheels.
Inside, the EV3 Air shows its strengths as a mobile workspace. There’s room to set up a laptop, power devices using vehicle-to-load (V2L), and make use of a clean, easy-to-use infotainment layout that still includes physical buttons. For drivers who spend time working from their vehicle, these details matter.
We also look at exterior design, driver acceptance and how the EV3 should age in the used market. If you’re a fleet manager or considering a novated lease, this review explains why the Kia EV3 Air deserves serious consideration as a practical, everyday electric SUV.
