Test driving the 2025 Kia EV3 Long Range Light, recently crowned World (I forgot to say 'World') Car of the Year by World (I forgot to say 'World' twice) Car of The Year. In this quick but detailed test drive, I cover:

✅ Exterior design 
✅ Interior space and tech 
✅ Driving feel & regen paddles
✅ Range
✅ Pricing
✅ Final thoughts on whether it lives up to the hype
