reddig33Kia EV3 coming to US
I wouldn’t describe it as “compact”, though maybe by US standards?
Don’t be misled by marketing words, the car industry calls it “compact” only to make you feel like you need something bigger and should spend more.
We also have “subcompact” in the US for… pretty much just the smallest Mini, so I think this one does count as “compact”.
The one person I know who owns one (who is overall happy with it) complains that it’s bit bulky for tight manoeuvres and narrow lanes, but it’s spacious enough for four adults to travel in reasonable comfort. If that’s what “compact” means to you then so be it but If words have any meaning it’s a generous mid-size car. Not something you’d buy if you specifically wanted something small.
