I have ordered an EV3 GT Line S, due for delivery in the next few weeks (Ordered before 1st April 2025 to avoid the " Expensive car supplement!)
The colour is "Sunset Orange" I have not seen it in the flesh and every website shows it in varying different shades... The dealer assures me it is a "Metallic" paint.
Can anyone confirm this? Some pictures show it as a bland orange and the Kia website shows it as brown!

I think if it was metallic they would charge extra for it,the pics I have seen are all orange not brown.

Hi, I am the Fleet Manager at Fish Brothers KIA, Sunset Orange is a no cost option but is a metallic paint finish on the EV3 range. If you would like a photo of a Orange one, we have several awaiting delivery and could send you a shot of the model - drop me an email at kiafleet@fish-bros.co.uk - hope you enjoy the new car!

We have ordered the same model + heat pump in Sunset Orange. We are waiting for the '25 plate but before April for the same reason as you. We are upgrading from a '70 plate eNiro 4+. We never saw one 'in the flesh' but did not want white or black and the grey one looked a bit like a tank when we did the test drive. Pistachio Green was our second choice. I am/was worried about the colour but found some great pictures on Google of a car in a UK Dealership that is reassuring me.

We've just collected our sunset orange EV3 from our dealer in the UK. We've found that phone cameras don't seem to capture the colour correctly, so suspect this may be due to the type of paint reflecting the light in different ways. In some light, the colour has a hint of salmon.
Two pictures taken this morning:
