In city traffic, it should be over 200 kilometers more. That is the result of the ECE homologation that has now been completed. At 506 kilometers, the all-wheel-drive version is insignificantly below that.
Three designs for the Swiss launch
The just under 4.70-meter-long Kia will be available in three versions: the base model, the GT-Line and the GT. A 58 kWh battery is also available for the base model with rear-wheel drive, which is combined with a 125 kW engine (170 hp).
With the larger battery, the rear-wheel-drive model produces 168 kW (229 hp) and the all-wheel-drive model 239 kW (325 hp). The top model, the EV6 GT, produces 430 kW (585 hp).
From zero to 80 percent in 18 minutes
As standard, the sedan's battery can be fast-charged at both 400 and 800 volts without the need for additional components or adapters.
At an 800-volt station, the battery can be charged from 10 to 80 percent in 18 minutes for all model variants with a maximum output of 239 kW. The Kia can also be used as an external power source, for example for charging an e-bike (center gallery).
