A $32,000 EV that goes 280 miles? Kia's smallest SUV might be its biggest winner yet. This week at the Brussels Motor Show, the Korean automaker pulled the curtains back on the EV2, a shrunken, city-ready version of its flagship EV9 SUV, designed for urban adventurers.

Kia EV2 electric SUV 2026: Specs and Performance

As an entry-level electric car, the EV2 is expected to retail for approximately $32,000. Despite its compact size—barely over 13 feet long—the top-tier version packs a 61-kWh battery capable of delivering nearly 280 miles of range. Built on the 400-volt e-GMP platform, it can recharge from 10 to 80 percent in just 30 minutes.

Don't let the city car tag fool you. It offers 144 horsepower, a zero to 60 mph time of 8.6 seconds, and a top speed of 99 mph. Inside, it's packed with a triple-screen infotainment setup and 403 liters of trunk space, proving that small packages can hold great value.

For camera enthusiasts, Fujifilm announced the Mini Evo Cinema, a hybrid instant camera mimicking the classic Super 8 cine look. It shoots 15-second clips accessible via QR code. It arrives in February 2026 for $410.

Simultaneously, Ricoh unveiled the GR IV Monochrome. At $2,200, it's $700 more expensive than the color version but promises superior tonal range from its 26-megapixel sensor without a color filter.
