The Kia EV5 is officially coming to the UK. Woohoo! The car that sits between EVs 4 and 6 will get one battery and three trim levels, of which we have details for... two of them.

The EV5's 81.4kWh battery will go for 329 miles and 313 miles in the entry-level baseline and GT-Line variants, both of which are front-wheel-drive. There's a range-topper incoming in the sportier shape of the EV5 'GT', but we don't know anything about that car yet, other than it'll be the range-topper, and it'll get AWD.

We do know precious mileage is eked out using Kia's i-Pedal regenerative braking, and the 400V electrical architecture recharges from 10-80 per cent in the time it takes to watch a rerun of The Office... provided you link to a 150kW charger.

We also know it's all sharp lines and squared shoulders for this shiny new Kia, while on the inside, there's a fancy panoramic display, massage seats clothed in earth-friendly materials, and more storage than your average London flat.

Add V2L charging and V2G-readiness, fingerprint recognition, remote updates, and enough driver assistance to get you to the moon (probably), and you've got an SUV for the modern family.

Kia tells TopGear.com we'll get more info on the GT once that all-wheel-drive performance variant is finished. Don't expect much before next year though. More as we get it.
