And not a moment too soon. By “compact” does anyone know if the EV3 is smaller than a Bolt EUV?

I wouldn't describe it as "compact", though maybe by US standards?

We also have "subcompact" in the US for... pretty much just the smallest Mini, so I think this one does count as "compact".

The one person I know who owns one (who is overall happy with it) complains that it's bit bulky for tight manoeuvres and narrow lanes, but it's spacious enough for four adults to travel in reasonable comfort. If that's what "compact" means to you then so be it but If words have any meaning it's a generous mid-size car. Not something you'd buy if you specifically wanted something small.

The Bolt EUV looks like a really close comparison

I like it. Kia's making some cool-looking vehicles these days.

My wife loves the EV3. We took a test drive last summer and she almost got one as a company car, but there was a long wait for delivery, so she took an EQA instead. Now she's in a different job, we're waiting for them to hit the post-lease resale market in a couple of years.
