Video Summary
The KGM Torres EVX is a traditional body on frame SUV, but is electric.The electric version has no grille or at least no grille as it is known.
The front styling has off road elements.
There are handles on the bonnet to emulate where a cable would tie from roof bars to keep branches off the windshield when going off-road.
There is no frunk, which is a missed opportunity.
It is standard CCS type two and will fast charge from 10 to 80 percent in under half an hour.
It has 73-kilowatt-hour usable battery.
There are two trims, the K30 and K40.
The K40 has 20 inch diamond cut alloy wheels, and the K30 has 18 inch alloy wheels, which some would prefer.
It has mostly been developed for family use, so it has lots of contrast styling and a large boot (over 700 litres).
The boot has lots of underfloor space.
A tow hitch can tow one and a half tons which is enough for a caravan and is aided by good towing technology such as Trailer Sway Control.
The backseat has lots of room and is surprisingly spacious, with heated seats and premium leather.
There's a rear console storage area with a few more cupholders, IsoFix on the seats.
The design is intended to be rugged and tough but the front has off road styling only as it is front wheel drive only.
The interior materials are not what you would expect in a $35,000 vehicle and the air conditioning controls and car functions are in the touchscreen.
It offers around 280 miles range.
It has 206 PS, which has only limited torque steer.
While this has better handling and ride than the petrol-fueled version, it has lane keep assist and radar cruise control, a few quirks stop short of a wholehearted recommendation.
Overall, its aesthetic and overall look do provide an almost unique blend of characteristics and design for what it is intended to be.
