Design
Talking about the overall presence road presence, the upcoming EV3, which features the silhouette with a fuel-powered counterpart, flaunts a bold stance from the outside. After giving a deep analysis of shared photos, it seems likely the company has taken some inspiration from its apartment-size e-SUV EV9.
The model shares the identical LED headlight setup, and similar style DRLs, connecting both ends at the front. The bonnet also looks similar. However, the size has been decreasing, and the reasons are obvious.
Rear Design
When it comes to the rear profile, the company has used the trending LED-connected tail lamps, which again makes it resemble EV9.

Battery Setup
It is likely to be powered by a 40-45 kWh battery pack, allowing the customers to enjoy a decent range between 400 to 450 km on a single charge.
