In the sprawling Las Vegas campus of CES last week, electric cars were shown off as spaceships and rolling tech showcases. Meanwhile in the temperate climate of Northern Europe, at the Brussels Motor Show, the star of the show came back down to earth with a little box from Kia.Launched at the 2026 Brussels Motor Show, the EV2 is a small, upright SUV-shaped EV designed squarely for Europe. It is built in Slovakia, sized for tight streets, and priced to slip under the EV3 as Kia’s cheapest dedicated EV in the region.Welcome back to another bonus edition of the show, and our mini-series called The Spec Sheet which runs the numbers on new car launches. Patreon supporters get the podcasts a week exclusively, but if you’re happy to wait, everything ends up in the free podcast feed with a few ads. You’re welcome to check out Patreon to support my work.
