KGM Australia has launched its first electric SUV in Australia: the KGM Torres EVX. Competing against cars such as the Tesla Model Y and Kia EV5, the Torres EVX is an electric mid-size SUV with up to 462km of range (WLTP).

Priced from $58,000 drive away, it’s available in a single specification in Australia and is priced $10,000 above the Torres hybrid, which the brand also recently launched. Torres EVX sales will commence on December 1, 2025.

Powered by a front-mounted 150kW/339Nm electric motor drawing power from a BYD-sourced 80.6kWh LFP battery, the Torres EVX is rated at 462km of range (WLTP). The battery can be charged at up to 150kW for a claimed 10-80 per cent charge in as little as 37 minutes, while peak 10.5kW AC charging gives a full charge in a claimed nine hours.

Unlike the also-recently launched Musso EV electric ute, the Torres EVX is only available in single motor front-wheel drive form for now. Vehicle-to-load (V2L) functionality is standard, allowing the Torres’ battery to power external devices.

Like the Torres hybrid, the EVX benefits from updated frequency select dampers and additional sound deadening materials from key noise transmission areas such as the engine compartment, engine cover, and wheel arches.

Just one specification will be on offer from launch, which is loaded with standard features including synthetic leather upholstery, heated and ventilated electrically adjustable front seats, heated outboard rear seats, dual 12.3-inch screens and a sunroof.

Safety features include eight airbags, autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, parking sensors and a 360-degree camera.
