KIA first dedicated battery electric vehicle - the innovative EV6 makes its European debut

EV6 - Kia first dedicated BEV built on versatile E-GMP architecture

This pioneering crossover - the first dedicated BEV launched under the new Kia design philosophy Opposites United displays a future oriented EV design characterized by high-tech details. It is powered exclusively by electric energy, with a choice of multiple long-range, zero-emissions powertrain configurations. The 800V charging capability means EV6 can go from 10 to 80 percent battery charge in just 18 minutes, while the GT version, engineered to inspire consumers with exciting driving performance, can accelerate from 0-to-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds with a top speed of 260 km/h.


It is Kia first electric vehicle to be available with two-wheel (2WD) or all-wheel drive (AWD) options.


The 2WD 77.4kWh EV6 can travel up to 528 kilometres (328 miles) on a single charge on the WLTP* combined cycle. With a maximum 605Nm torque available on the AWD version, the EV6 can accelerate from 0-to-100km/h in just 5.2 seconds.


For ultimate peace of mind, the new EV6 is equipped with a host of convenience features and the latest Advanced Driver Assistance Systems including next generation Highway Driving Assist with lane change assist, Blind Spot View Monitor, Forward Collision Avoidance Assist including junction turning and crossing functionality, and the new Intelligent Front Lighting technology.


Relaxation seats, dual 12.3 inch curved displays, multimode controls, class-leading space and impressive storage combine to give EV6 a competitive edge that caters for all needs. The E-GMP architecture permits a flat floor design, helping to create a comfortable and first-class interior cabin that includes front legroom space of 1,078mm and a generous 990mm for rear legroom. Adding to the EV6 practicality and functionality is a family-friendly trunk space of up to 520 litres (VDA). Keyless entry with automatic flush door handles, several drive modes that optimize ride and handling, Augmented Reality head-up display tech and a highly ergonomic design all further help to deliver an experience that always puts the driver first.

Kia also delivers in Europe the KIA NIRO model with full electric propulsion option which in the option with 64 kWh battery offers a range of approximately 370 km. This model is the market leader in the electric vehicle sector in some countries, for example in the Netherlands in the last 12 months 3158 Kia Niro EV (E-NIRO) vehicles have been sold.
