According to the reports, 439,000 Model 3 units were sold all over the world. As the battery electric vehicle was launched only three years ago, it defeated most of its fuel powered cars. This report is according to Focus2move as published by Forbes.

Most affordable Tesla

Some of the reasons why Tesla Model 3 is highly preferred is safety, speed at an affordable price and the 5 seater space. Perfect for regular drivers like families or working people.

And depending on the preference and affordability people can opt the autopilot option. Or else just use the car as a regular electric vehicle.

Furthermore, it is a simple car yet has quality. Though it is not available in many countries, the Model 3 seems to be selling more as the company keeps expanding.

Best selling everywhere

By 2020, the Model 3 was known as bestselling EV in the world. And has been best selling plug in for 3 consecutive years in the US.

Further in 2019, the Model 3 was best selling plug in car in Europe. Also, in 2020 best selling plug in model in China.

Though in 2021 the Model Y, the latest model seems to take over the sales. The demand of Model 3 is still continuing because of its affordability.

Back in 2016 when Tesla first starting taking booking for Model 3. Then there were 325,000 reservations made.

Against fuel powered cars

Being a 14 year old company, Tesla isn’t just competing other car companies. But actually setting up the future trends.

In the past year, most countries around the world saw the need to shift to electric vehicles. Considering the pollution and other environmental impacts raising day by day. Also, the increases prices of fuels like petrol, gas and diesel is pushing the governments to take innovative initiatives.

In the middle of the increasing demand, Tesla Model 3 being a mid sized sedan stole the spotlight.  Interectingly they don’t have a special PR team or advertising. Except for the special handling team in China majority focusing on eradicating false claims about Tesla. Which was formed only a few months back.

Tesla most latest car released is Tesla Model S Plaid.  As they keep bring in new models, Futuristic yet simple technology involved is pushing other companies to move forward.  Ford is one such fuel based car existing for decades, which is Ramping up it’s EV production line.

The 2021 best selling vehicle list would be interesting and Tesla now has some strong competition.

Kia EV5 Charges into the UK Market with Sleek Looks, Smart Tech, and Up to 329 Miles of Range

Kia’s EV portfolio continues to expand, and the EV5 is the newest entrant to join the electric SUV party in the UK. Nestled between the compact EV4 and the more performance-oriented EV6, the EV5 is designed to hit the sweet spot for families and city dwellers alike. With a striking exterior, sustainable interior materials, and solid electric performance, the EV5 aims to be more than just a placeholder in the brand’s electric journey. The EV5 will launch in the UK with one battery option: an 81.4kWh pack, delivering up to 329 miles of WLTP-certified range in the base 'Baseline' model and up to 313 miles in the mid-tier 'GT-Line' variant. Both versions are front-wheel-drive only. Powertrain and Charging Capabilities While Kia is keeping things simple (for now) with a single battery option, the EV5 doesn’t skimp on performance. The models revealed so far are FWD and optimized for efficiency. Power figures haven’t been fully disclosed yet, but expect punchy acceleration and smooth handling typical of the brand's electric models. What makes the EV5 especially practical for UK drivers is its 400V electrical architecture, which allows DC fast charging from 10% to 80% in roughly 30 minutes – or roughly the time it takes to watch an episode of The Office. Plug it into a 150kW charger and you're good to go in no time. Kia’s intelligent i-Pedal regenerative braking system also helps drivers maximize range with one-pedal driving, ideal for stop-start urban environments. Design: Sharp, Bold, and Boxy True to modern EV styling, the EV5 takes a bold leap forward with sharp lines, squared shoulders, and futuristic lighting signatures. The SUV embraces a boxier, more upright stance – a departure from the sleeker coupe-like profile of the EV6 – lending it a rugged, practical look that’s both urban- and adventure-ready. Expect a variety of vibrant colour options and distinctive alloy wheels across the trims, making this a head-turner on UK streets. Inside: Sustainable Luxury Meets Everyday Practicality Step inside the EV5 and you’re greeted by an airy, tech-focused cabin designed with both comfort and sustainability in mind. A seamless panoramic display stretches across the dash, combining the infotainment and instrument cluster into one fluid unit. There’s also generous cabin space, enhanced by clever packaging and flat-floor architecture. Kia has used eco-friendly materials throughout the cabin, including recycled fabrics and plant-based leathers. Add in massage seats, ambient lighting, and more storage than your average Zone 1 London flat, and you’ve got a space designed to both relax and impress. The Upcoming GT Variant While the Baseline and GT-Line trims are confirmed, Kia has teased a third, range-topping EV5 GT variant. This high-performance edition will feature all-wheel drive and a sportier character, but beyond that, details remain scarce. Expect it to arrive with beefed-up power figures, likely mirroring the punchy GT performance we’ve seen in the EV6 GT. Final Thoughts The Kia EV5 is shaping up to be a well-rounded electric SUV that offers strong range, thoughtful design, and innovative tech. With prices yet to be confirmed and the GT variant still under wraps, there's more to come – but based on what we’ve seen, the EV5 is a compelling new option for anyone looking to go electric in 2025. Keep an eye on Kia’s UK site for updates and bookings later this year.
