In this service, the 4-seat passenger model Air trim of the Ray EV will be operated. The Air trim features various convenience options such as an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS), a fully folding driver's seat, and a ventilated driver's seat.

The operating model also includes the optional Drive Wise II, allowing customers to experience various safety features such as ▲blind-spot collision avoidance assist ▲rear cross-traffic collision avoidance assist ▲safe exit warning.

Users can rent directly at Socar zones using the Socar application or use the call service to summon a vehicle to their desired location and make payments.

To commemorate the introduction of the Ray EV to Socar's rentable vehicles, Kia will give the first 1,000 Socar users a 'Ray EV 5-hour free test drive coupon.' The coupon can be downloaded from the Ray EV event page on the Socar application, and more details can be found within the Socar app.

A Kia representative said, "We hope many customers will experience the Ray EV's product quality that surpasses its class by using Socar, which can be accessed without restrictions on time and place. We plan to continue creating various services so that customers can experience Kia's electric vehicles without burden."
