Kia Venga EV concept – Click above for high-res image gallery<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nApparently, we we missed at least one interesting machine from the recently concluded press days at the Geneva Motor Show<\/a>. Kia<\/a> showed off a battery electric version of its new Venga B-segment hatchback. Like the rest of Kia and Hyundai<\/a>‘s hybrids and plug-in concepts either in production or recently shown, the Venga EV uses lithium polymer batteries, likely sourced from LG Chem. The battery pack is stored under the floorpan of the electric vehicle (EV).<\/p>\n

The Venga EV contains 24 kilowatt-hours of battery capacity. The front wheels are driven by an 80-kilowatt motor packing a stout 206 pound-feet of torque. Kia says that the concept has about 112 miles of driving range and a 50-kW fast charge can provide an 80-percent recharge in as little as 20 minutes, while a full charge at normal power levels takes about eight hours. The rest of the details can be found in the press release after the break.<\/p>\n
