Get ready for a shock! The 2025 Kia EV5 is changing the EV game. I reveal the features that Tesla doesn't have, the incredible value it offers, and the truth about its efficiency. Is this the perfect family EV? And why would you buy it over a Tesla Model Y? Find out in this review.
NB: Kia App is included for the term of the warranty (7 years). Prices corrected in graphics at time of publication (8/4/25).

ABOUT
I'm that guy who took the Victorian Government to the High Court of Australia to rid our country of the world's worst EV tax. This was not only unfair and unjust, it was also a massive disincentive for new buyers of EVs and delayed our progression to cleaner/greener forms of transportation.
