Kia is preparing to introduce the new and improved EV6 in the US. Ahead of its official debut, the updated Kia 2025 EV6 has been spotted with new design developments on US roads.
Here's a look at the updated Kia 2025 EV6 in the US
Launched in 2021, the EV6 is Kia's first dedicated EV to ride on Hyundai's E-GMP platform, which itself supports the IONIQ 5. Kia's EV6 goes on sale in the US in early 2022.
While the electric crossover was praised for its bold design and long-range capabilities, the EV6 has lost steam as new models enter the market.
EV6 sales fell by double digits in the US for the third month in a row in September. Despite this, sales are still up 8% year to date.
Kia is hoping that a smart new design, fast charging, and more range will help attract buyers. We first got our hands on the new EV6 in May after Kia launched it in Korea. Last month, Kia's EV6 was developed in Europe.
One of the most important changes is design. You'll immediately notice Kia's signature LED daytime running light design, which is also featured on new models like the EV9 and EV3.
The large 84 kWh battery, up from 77.4 kWh, provides up to 307 miles (494 km) of driving range in Korea. That's up from 295 miles (475 km) in the previous generation. In Europe, the new EV6 reaches 361 (582 km) WLTP driving range.
Next in line for an improved model is the US. Kia's updated EV6 was recently spotted testing in the US. New video from KindelAuto it gives us a glimpse of the new EV design.
Despite being hidden, the new lamp design is clearly visible. A faster upgrade than the current model.
Kia has also updated the front and rear design for a faster, sportier look. The new EV6 is expected to be officially launched in North America by the end of the year. Official pricing and details will be announced closer to launch.
As the updated EV6 has started to roll out in global markets, the upgraded GT model with high performance was spotted earlier this month with a new sporty design (you can see the video here).
The current 2024 Kia EV6 starts at $42,600 and tops out at 232 miles of range. For $45,950, the Light Long Range trim offers a range of up to 310 miles.
