The EV6 cuts a low, athletic silhouette that sits between an SUV and a sporty hatchback, with taut surfaces and a distinctive rear light bar that gives it presence on the road. At 4,695 mm long and roughly 1,880–1,890 mm wide it feels substantial without being oversized for city use. The wide track, short overhangs and flush details make it look planted and purposeful rather than blandly practical.
Inside the EV6 the cabin balances minimalism with everyday function, featuring a low dash and a wide, curved display layout that blends infotainment and instrument cluster into one sweep. Quality is generally good—soft-touch surfaces where it matters, with some hard plastics in lower panels—and the supportive seats make longer trips comfortable. Controls are mostly logical and physical shortcuts keep the main functions usable on the move, while the five-seat layout feels grown-up rather than gimmicky.
Practicality is one of the EV6's strengths: luggage space sits around 480–490 litres with the rear seats up and expands to roughly 1,250–1,290 litres with the seats folded, making it competitive with compact SUVs. The long wheelbase and flat floor provide generous rear legroom and a comfortable bench for three, while the wide tailgate and low loading lip help with bulky items. Everyday use is straightforward—grocery runs, family outings or weekend bags are all easily handled.
The EV6 drives with a surprising blend of agility and comfort thanks to its rear-wheel-drive architecture and low-mounted battery; the chassis feels planted and the steering is direct without being nervous. Power ranges from around 170 hp up to a fire-breathing 609 hp in the GT, with 0–100 km/h times from about 8.7 to 3.5 seconds depending on specification, so there is a version for efficiency-focused buyers and one for outright pace. AWD variants add grip and a firmer personality, while the standard setups deliver composed cruising with the ability to get lively on twisty roads. Overall the EV6 balances everyday comfort with genuine driver engagement when required.
Range figures depend on battery and drivetrain: the smaller pack advertises around 428 km WLTP while the larger rear-wheel-drive variant can reach about 582 km, and consumption figures sit roughly between 15.9–20.9 kWh/100 km. In everyday terms most commuters will see multiple days between charges and long-distance drivers can expect comfortable 300–500 km stints before needing a top-up. The EV6's 800V-capable architecture supports very fast DC charging (up to around 350 kW in ideal conditions), meaning motorway stops for a quick 10–80% boost are far shorter than older EVs. Real-world economy will vary with speed, load and weather, but the combination of range and rapid charging makes the EV6 practical for most routines.
Kia fits the EV6 with a broad suite of driver aids including adaptive cruise with lane-following, automated emergency interventions and parking assists that make urban and motorway driving less stressful. The infotainment centers on a sweeping dual-screen setup with clear graphics and generally intuitive menus, plus wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for smartphone integration. Some secondary functions live in touch panels which take a short learning curve, but physical controls for climate and drive modes help reduce distraction. Over-the-air updates and a comprehensive sensor package mean the tech can keep improving after purchase.
The EV6 suits buyers who want a stylish, practical electric crossover that doesn’t feel like a clipped-down SUV—ideal for families and commuters who value range, comfort and fast charging. A broad spread of battery and power choices (from roughly 63 to 84 kWh and outputs spanning about 170 to 609 hp in RWD or AWD setups) means customers can prioritise efficiency, long range or outright performance without changing the body shape. Those after the sharpest handling or the lowest running costs will pick different specs, but all versions deliver a modern cabin and strong everyday usability. For shoppers weighing EV options, the EV6 stands out for its combination of design, technology and real-world range.
