Kia will hold the ‘Kia EV Experience Week’, allowing customers to experience and test drive a variety of electric vehicle models starting from October 19 for 11 days.
Before the event scheduled for October 19-29 at the Hanam Starfield Gourmet Atrium, Kia has announced that online pre-registration for customers wishing to participate in the test drive program will be available from the 5th (Thursday).
Customers interested in test-driving can register through the events page on Kia and Starfield’s websites. The test drive vehicles include the flagship electrified SUV ‘EV9’, the high-performance electric car ‘EV6 GT’, the recently launched ‘Ray EV’, as well as other Kia electric vehicle models like the EV6, Niro EV, and Niro Plus.
Winners of the test drive lottery will be individually notified about five days before the test drive application date, and those who do not pre-register can still test drive on the same day by visiting and participating in available slots. The test drive program will operate daily from 11 AM to 6 PM during the Kia EV Experience Week.
The Kia EV Experience Week is an event designed to showcase the excellence of Kia’s electrification technology and provide an opportunity for customers to experience various electric vehicle models all in one place. In addition to the test drive program, various other activities, including special EV exhibitions, will be operated.
Customers visiting Hanam Starfield will have the chance to freely explore the EV9, EV6 GT, and Ray EV through special exhibitions and listen to detailed explanations about the vehicles. The special exhibition will be available during the Kia EV Experience Week, from 10 AM to 8 PM on weekdays and from 10 AM to 10 PM on weekends.
Additionally, customers can engage in unique EV life experiences, such as the ‘EVTI’ balance game that helps find their perfect match of EV, creating cotton candy using the V2L (Vehicle to Load) function, and gaming activities throughout the event period.
During the event, professional consultations will be available regarding electric vehicle features to purchasing advice. Customers who agree to personal information collection and apply for consultation, as well as those participating in the test drive, will receive a small commemorative gift.
A Kia representative said, “Through this ‘Kia Experience Week’, we hope that many customers will directly experience various Kia electric vehicles and find the right electric car that suits their lifestyle. We also plan to continuously introduce diverse and complex EV experience programs in the future,” they added.
