Kia EV8

Launch Date | 2026

Kia's ambitious electrification plan is charging forward with the upcoming EV8, a performance-packed saloon that draws design cues from the Stinger. Leaked specs reveal a powerful dual-motor setup offering up to 603 horsepower, alongside a massive 113.2 kWh battery, which could deliver nearly 500 miles on the WLTP cycle. This stunning electric saloon rides on Hyundai's advanced IMA platform and promises to combine thrilling performance with practical range. Look out for the EV8's debut in late 2024, marking Kia's bold step into the future of electric motoring.

Salary Sacrifice

EcoMute and save

The EcoMute programme offers substantial savings on a EV8 reducing monthly costs and tax liabilities compared to a Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) agreement and maximising financial benefits for employees.

Design

Head-Turning Stunner

Meet the Kia EV8 - a sleek, game-changing electric saloon that's set to inherit the Stinger's swagger in the Kia lineup. Built for those who crave both style and speed, this mid-size marvel is ready to capture the hearts of the style-savvy and thrill-seekers alike.

Safety

Protection on Point

The Kia EV8 isn't just eye-catching; it's as safe as it is sharp. Built to hit Euro NCAP's five-star mark, it's stacked with features like Forward Collision Avoidance Assist, Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance with Rear-Cross Traffic Alert, and Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist. This beauty has got your back, front, and sides covered.

Technology

Charged to Impress

With a lightning-fast 800-volt battery that zips from 10% to 80% in just under 20 minutes, the EV8 is all about tech on turbo. It's got power for days with a twin-motor setup, and its smart vehicle-to-load (V2L) system turns it into a mobile power station. Toss in multiple sleek displays and cutting-edge connectivity, and you’re looking at one of the techiest EVs on the road.

Savings

Save the world and your wallet

By leasing the EV8 through the EcoMute programme, you contribute to reducing carbon emissions. It cuts both corporate Scope 3 GHG emissions and personal carbon footprints, as electric vehicles emit significantly lower greenhouse gases compared to conventional cars.

Drive Green, Live Green

Break free from your PCP

Salary sacrifice allows you to pay for your electric car before income tax. The same applies to servicing, tyres and motor insurance, saving you a bundle on your running costs too. What's more, there's

no deposit;
no credit check; and
no personal finance agreement.

It’s a single monthly deduction from your gross pay – before income tax and national insurance contributions. It's typically about half the cost of an equivalent PCP or personal lease. A no-brainer.
