A year after its debut as a concept, the Kia EV2 will make its debut in production guise at the Brussels Motor Show 2026 on January 9. Teaser images of the car show the production-ready EV sitting under a thin cover, revealing proportions that are virtually unchanged from the concept, which by itself looked quite near-production from the outside.

The teasers reveal that the EV2 will carry over the split headlamp design into production, with the lighting elements arranged horizontally rather than vertically, as seen in most recent split-headlamp designs. Each side of the fascia features two vertically stacked LED daytime running lamps, with the outer units also integrating the main headlamp units. Around the rear, the low-set tail lamps are a carryover design from the concept.
Other design elements visible include the use of cladding around the wheel arches, a chunky front bumper and a prominent rear haunch.

Cabin design remains under wraps, though we expect it to share similarities with its larger siblings, with elements such as a floating dashboard, minimal physical buttons on the centre console and a pair of free-standing displays for instrumentation and infotainment.

The EV2, as mentioned in previous reports, is set to become Kia’s smallest EV on sale globally, sitting below the EV3. The EV could share some of its powertrain elements with the EV3.
The Kia Concept EV2 debuted in February 2025.
“With the EV2, we reaffirm our commitment to make electric mobility truly accessible to a broader audience - without compromise. This compact SUV delivers the innovation and the spirit of our larger EVs while fitting seamlessly into everyday life in Europe. Designed, developed, and soon to be produced in Europe, we are confident that the EV2 will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of responsible mobility across the region,” said Marc Hedrich, President & CEO of Kia Europe.
