Performance & Charging. Power to explore.


Class-leading range Leave range anxiety at home with an incredible AER (All Electric Range) of 604km (WLTP) on the Air LR grade, 563km on Earth/GT-Line grades and 436km on Air SR grade.

Charging With DC fast charging capabilities, the EV3 Air SR grade as an example can be charged from 10-80% in as little as approx. 29 minutes on 350kW chargers and 55 minutes on 50kW chargers.

V2L Interior & Exterior Conveniently use various electronic devices both inside and outside the EV3 with the available interior V2L (Vehicle-to-load) power outlet in the 2nd row or with an adaptor on the outside charging port.

i-Pedal driving Activating the Intelligent Pedal Mode (i-Pedal) changes your driving mode so that you can accelerate, decelerate & stop solely using the accelerator pedal only. Apart from the convenience, i-pedal mode also helps increase your available range by recovering more energy through rengerative braking and reduces wear & tear on the hydraulic brakes.

Safety. With 5 Star ANCAP Safety.


Autonomous Emergency Braking AEB alerts the driver to sudden slowdowns of the preceding vehicle or detects potential collision risks with vehicles, pedestrians, or cyclists. It automatically intervenes with braking assistance if the risk of collision escalates after the initial warning.

Rear Cross Traffic Collision Avoidance Rear Cross-traffic Collision-avoidance Assist (RCCA) provides a warning if there is a risk of collision with an oncoming object on the left or right side while reversing. After the warning, if the risk of collision increases, it automatically assists with emergency braking.

High Beam Assist High Beam Assist (HBA) detects the ambient light and illuminance, such as an oncoming vehicle or the rear lights of the vehicle in front and automatically adjusts the high beams.

Blind Spot Collision Avoidance Assist Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA) warns you if there is a risk of collision with a rear side vehicle in the blind-spot while changing lanes. When forward exiting a parallel-parking spot, if there is a risk of collision with a vehicle approaching from behind, it automatically assists with emergency braking.

Safe Exit Warning The Safe Exit Warning system will look out for you as it detects and warns of approaching vehicles that enter your blind spot zone before you open your door.

Lane Keeping Assist & Lane Following Assist 2 Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) & Lane Following Assist (LFA) helps keep the car in the centre of its lane through warnings & steering correction when necessary.

Driver Attention Warning System Driver Attention Warning (DAW) monitors your driving and warns you when your attentiveness drops while driving. It also provides a notification to you when the vehicle in front has moved on from a traffic stop.
