PERFORMANCE
As relative newcomers on the scene, electric vehicles have boundless potential when it comes to their performance. The Kia EV6, in particular, is made with sport-level handling in mind. You’ll be sure to revel in every second spent in the cockpit as you unleash the power of electricity.
Power
Electric motors run quietly while also outputting tremendous strength. The Kia EV6 can be configured in a variety of ways to suit your tastes and needs. Its standard build generates 167 horsepower, and it only gets better. The GT AWD trim takes engineering to the max, outputting an incredible 576 horsepower. Both sporty rear-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive give you the push you need to get the blood pumping.
The Kia EV6 puts all that energy to good use, too. You’ll have four different drive modes to select from based on current conditions. These different modes fine-tune the Kia EV6 and adjust how it performs, making it well-suited for any occasion:
- Eco
- Normal
- Sport
- Snow
Electric Capability
Battery performance is a key indicator of an electric model’s quality. Range is among the most important, and as you’d assume, more is better. The Kia EV6 has a standard EPA-estimated range of 232 miles on a single charge, which can take you all through a typical week with ease.* When properly equipped, the Long-Range models sport an EPA-estimated range of 310 miles for even longer road trips.*
When it’s time to recharge, you can relax knowing you’ll be back out on the road shortly. When connected to a DC fast charger, your EV6 can go from 10% to 80% battery life in as few as 18 minutes. More of these chargers are popping up every day, making confident electric driving a reality.
TECHNOLOGY
The futuristic appeal of electric driving comes with an equally stunning suite of high-tech systems. These cutting-edge features turn your everyday drives into their own reward while also helping protect you and your riders.
Infotainment
From the driver’s seat, you’ll have an expansive set of features awaiting you. The dual 12.3-inch displays, including a digital instrument cluster and a navigation-enabled touchscreen, invite you to step into the next generation. You can connect your device and access your favorite apps, music, and more with ease.
Available tech upgrades make the Kia EV6 worthy of superstar status. The available Meridian® Premium Audio system uses 14 speakers throughout the cabin to bring your favorite playlist to life. For easy reading and increased focus, the available Augmented Reality Head-Up Display shows key route guidance and safety info right on the windshield.
Driver Assistance
State-of-the-art technology has made driving safer than ever. Kia Drive Wise is a collection of systems that work together to give you more peace of mind as you drive. Thanks to these standard technologies, the Kia EV6 provides more confident adventuring:
- Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist

INTERIOR
A well-designed cabin can be your home away from home by catering to your senses. The inside of your vehicle is where you’ll be spending a lot of your time, so it should be a place you want to see again and again—that’s exactly what the Kia EV6 is.
Comfort
Settling in for the long drive ahead is a breeze thanks to the driver-centric design in the front row. The standard 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat includes heating and 2-way lumbar adjustment to help you find the ideal position. The available ventilation system keeps you cool when the sun starts beating down through the windshield.
Vegan SynTex is a touchstone in the interior as well. It wraps the steering wheel and seats for a look and feel that combines luxury and sensibility. You’ll even have seven total choices for interior color scheme to make the cabin suit your preferences.
Space
When your family and friends want to join in on the fun, you’ll need to make sure they’re comfortable as well. The Kia EV6 has plenty of room inside for your riders to stretch out and settle in.
