New Kia EV6:
Over 6,000 Norwegians have chosen today’s EV6. Now the car comes in a new version.
These days, Kia is introducing a new and improved version of the EV6.
The new EV6 has a dynamic exterior design, increased range and a wider selection of options that make everyday life more pleasant. The car now has a brand new fourth-generation battery of 84kW which gives an extended range of up to 582 kilometres.
The car has also received a heavily updated infotainment system, parts of which are recognizable from the flagship EV9, as well as a number of OTA updates.
– Today’s cars are digital. Being able to update your car digitally ensures that you have a new car for longer than you did in the old days, says Christian Lagaard in Kia Bil Norge.
Many on the road
Since its launch in August 2021, the EV6 has gained popularity for its modern design and advanced technology, achieving sales of more than 210,000 units worldwide. In Norway alone, there are over 6,000 EV6s on the road.
The EV6 now looks more like the all-new Kia family. The front of the car has been given elegant daytime running lights that feature Kia’s innovative Star Map signature lighting, which gives the car a futuristic and sporty look.
There will be two different steering wheels on the different models. In the GT-Line you will find a sportier steering wheel than before.
Extended range
Kia has equipped the new EV6 with a new, fourth-generation battery. Thanks to the higher energy density, capacity has increased across all versions: from 58kWh to 62kWh for the Standard Range version, and from 77.4kWh to 84kWh for the Long Range version. This means a longer range of up to 582 km (WLTP).
With the 800V technology and a peak charging performance of 260kW, the new 84kWt battery can be charged from 10 to 80 percent in 18 minutes and customers can get up to 343 km in just 15 minutes.
– All in all, the updated EV6 appears like a top-of-the-line car inside, but with an increased sense of premium. We know that the current model performs well both during driving and charging in summer and winter. We have every reason to expect this to be even better, says Christian Lagaard, communications manager for Kia Bil Norge.
Prices and specifications will come later in September.
