New Kia EV6 UK-Version (2025) | INTERIOR,EXTERIOR

new Kia EV6 with orders opening from September 2nd, 2024.

Like the EV3 and EV9, the new EV6 is offered with three grades for buyers in the UK: 'Air', 'GT-Line' and 'GT-Line S', each generously equipped as standard.

The new EV6 features a larger battery pack over its predecessor, now with a capacity of 84.0kWh. In its entry level 'Air' trim, the battery pack powers a single motor, producing 225bhp and 350Nm torque via the rear wheels. The EV6 'Air' is capable of an impressive range of up to 361 miles on a single charge.

EV6 'GT-Line' and 'GT-Line S' models can be ordered with the same rear-wheel drive (RWD) setup as the 'Air', or with a dual-motor all-wheel drive (AWD) set up. The EV6 'GT-Line' RWD is capable of up to 361 miles on a single charge, while the 'GT-Line S' RWD can travel up to 347 miles on a single charge.

With the AWD drivetrain in 'GT-Line' and 'GT-Line S' form, the EV6's total power output climbs to an impressive 320bhp and torque increases to 605Nm. Even with the significant increase in power, torque and acceleration over the RWD variants, the AWD EV6 'GT-Line' and 'GT-Line S' variants can travel up to 339 and 324 miles on a single charge, respectively. Additionally, 'GT-Line S' models are also available with an optional heat pump, enhancing efficiency in the coldest conditions.

The new EV6 also features an improved battery charging curve over its predecessor, with cutting-edge 800V technology and a peak charging performance of 258kW (+8% compared to previous EV6 - 239kW). The new 84.0kWh battery can be recharged from 10-80% in 18 minutes and customers can gain up to 343km in just 15 minutes.

UK customer deliveries will start in Q3 2024, with customers able to choose from 'Air', 'GT-Line' and 'GT-Line S' variants from launch. Fleet customers will benefit from the 2% BIK (benefit-in-kind) rate for EVs in 2024/25, rising to 3% for the 2025/26 tax years. The new EV6 GT will follow in early 2025.
