Your Comprehensive Guide To 2025 Kia EV & Hybrid Models

Are you interested in a new Kia electric car or one of the many hybrid or plug-in hybrid models? Kia has released a truly impressive array of hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and electric vehicles over the last several years, and it shows no signs of stopping.

The team at Gunther Kia has put this page together to help you choose the 2025 Kia Motors hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or electric model that best suits your lifestyle. Below, we start by discussing some of the differences between electric and hybrid automobiles.

Kia EV vs. Hybrid Vehicles

Electric vehicles rely on a battery-and-motor system for power; they do not use gasoline at all, only electricity. This has several advantages, including not requiring routine oil changes. They're also typically quieter than traditional automobiles and help you bypass gas stations altogether.

Hybrid vehicles pair a battery-and-motor system with an internal combustion engine. They achieve impressive efficiency as a result. By still utilizing gasoline-fed engines, hybrids are a great option for drivers who want better gas mileage without fully committing to an electric vehicle.

Two types of hybrids exist: traditional and plug-in. Traditional hybrid vehicles do not require external charging, while plug-in hybrid models do. As a result, the latter typically provides better fuel economy scores than the former and can run on electric power only for a limited time. However, both types use regenerative braking for self-charging purposes.

The 2025 Kia vehicle lineup offers a number of options in all three categories. Let's explore the Kia electric car and hybrid choices below.
