New Electric SUVs for 2026

The Chevrolet Equinox EV (from ~$35,000) and Kia EV3 are targeting entry-level buyers, promising over 300 miles of range.

The Equinox EV is slated to offer multiple configurations, including front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive, catering to different driving preferences and needs. It also boasts a spacious interior and advanced tech features, positioning it as a practical and appealing choice for families. The Kia EV3 distinguishes itself with a bold, modern design and a focus on connectivity and advanced driver-assistance systems. Kia's established reputation for reliability and value could give the EV3 an edge in the competitive entry-level EV market. These models directly challenge established players like Tesla by offering more affordable options. If successful, GM and Kia could significantly accelerate EV adoption among a broader consumer base.
