The New York International Auto Show opened to the press today and we were there to see what electric vehicles carmakers brought to the floor. New York’s show isn’t big for premieres, but we got a good look at some upcoming EVs, along with some electric concepts. One world premiere was the special EQC Edition 1886 from Mercedes-Benz — which you can check out here.

Here are the other electric vehicles we saw on the floor:

Kia HabaNiro concept

Kia’s HabaNiro (Niro, get it?) electric crossover concept is funky and a bit chunky, with a bright red interior and butterfly doors. The crossover is said to have a 300+ mile range and Level 5 autonomous driving capabilities, but…it’s a concept. There are no known plans for production, but for what it’s worth, Kia Senior Design Manager Kurt Kahl pointed out to us Kia that has brought its concepts to life in the past.

Kia’s Niro EV was there as well:

Genesis Mint concept

Genesis brought its Mint concept to the show — for much more on the concept (and EV concepts in general), here’s Jamie’s article about the reveal. Genesis is still saying it plans on introducing a separate, production-intent EV with a new electric drivetrain in 2021.

Hyundai Kona EV

Qiantu K50

A Qiantu executive said the K50 would be sold in North America in the first half of 2020 for $125,000-150,000, based on options. Mullen/Qiantu will sell 1,000 “signature series” cars first, and 2,500 per year after that.
