For decades now, pop culture has tried to imagine what the cars of the future would look like. From flying cars to cars that can travel through time, there have been a lot of big ideas. Now, the future is here. Meet the Kia EV6. With the ability to travel an estimated 499 km on a single charge, it has easy handling, a smooth ride, and top-tier safety features. Fully electric, the entire body has been redesigned to show how much is to be gained from losing the engine. Aesthetics meets engineering to make a truly stunning compact SUV. If you're looking towards the future, we have the 2024 Kia EV6 for sale, and it's ready to change your driving life.
Can an electric vehicle have competitive performance? Have a range that goes for hundreds of kilometres on a single charge? Come in all-wheel drive? The Kia EV6 answers all of those questions with a resounding yes. And that is only the beginning.
The all-electric powertrain offers impressive responsiveness, accelerating instantaneously for a smooth ride and superior driving experience. The standard rear-wheel drive powertrain produces a respectable 225 hp, while the available all-wheel drive option delivers 320 hp. Exclusive to the high-performance GT trim is a unique all-wheel drive system that can generate a truly impressive 576 hp.
The EV6 takes fast charging to a new level with the 800V multi-charging system, which can add 100 km of range in under 4.5 minutes. Low on battery? Not to worry––you can go from 10% to 80% state of charge in less than 18 minutes at a Level 3 DC Fast Charging station. Meanwhile, a Level 2 home charger can fully charge the 77 kWh battery pack in just over seven hours.
The EV6 has a striking body style with waves and curves that generate the feeling of movement. Long, sleek, and low, its sporty style is simply stunning. Black accents make the six available colours either pop from the bit of contrast or create a sophisticated monochromatic palette when paired with Aurora Pearl Black. The headlamps of this Kia SUV are in an eye-catching triangle shape that balances beautifully with the taillamp, which runs from one wheel well to the other in a curving, graceful arc against the diminutive spoiler nestled at the bottom of the tailgate window.
The interior has clean lines with a bold design that makes an already roomy cabin feel more spacious. Black seats with gray accents lend sophistication to every occasion. The generous sunroof creates an open feeling that helps you enjoy the sights around you, whether you’re driving through a mountain range or the bright lights of the big city. The flat floor, a benefit of Kia’s Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), provides extra legroom for ultimate comfort.
There are three trims available for the 2024 Kia EV6. The Wind trim gets a peppy 225 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque from a single motor on the rear axle. It offers an estimated 499 km of range on a full battery. If you’re looking for a bit beefier specs under the hood, the GT trim brings a massive 576 hp and 545 lb-ft of torque. This trim gets an estimated 351 km on a single charge of its lithium-ion polymer battery. It glides through the streets on 53 cm alloy wheels while you enjoy the supportive bucket seats.
The middle Land trim has two optional packages for additional features: the GT-Line Package 1 and the GT-Line Package 2. All three versions of the Land trim come with dual-motor all-wheel drive for 320 hp and 446 lb-ft of torque. The GT-Line Package 1 adds a smart liftgate, ventilated leather seats, and more. Upgrading to the GT-Line Package 2 brings additional features, such as a sunroof and augmented reality display. The base Land and GT-Line Package 1 have a range of 454 km, while the GT-Line Package 2 has larger 51 cm wheels and a range of 406 km.
The heads-up display of the future is now part of the present in the Kia EV6. This HUD uses augmented reality technology to project vital driving data on the bottom of the windshield in three dimensions. While out of the line of direct sight, you can view the information you need without taking your eyes off the road.
The interior also has dual 31 cm displays that stretch across the dashboard. The controls are right at your fingertips from the driver’s seat, allowing you to operate infotainment options with ease. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are standard in the EV6, along with SiriusXM satellite radio and Kia Connect, giving you a variety of choices for music, podcasts, and news.
The available V2L (vehicle-to-load) feature supplies up to 1.9 kW of AC power you can use for lights, power tools, or for a little music while you’re enjoying the great outdoors. With that kind of power, your tailgating parties, BBQs, and beach bashes can rise to a whole new level of fun. Who said that the EV life wasn’t exciting?
Even the best technology, design, and ecological-minded electrified options don’t matter if a car can’t protect its driver and passengers. Kia takes that responsibility seriously by ensuring all its vehicles have top-of-the-line safety features. The EV6 is no exception, bringing to the table a range of the most innovative safety and security technologies on the market today.
Forward Collision Avoidance Assist alerts the driver to potential collisions and applies the brakes if you do not have time to react. Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance Assist works in a similar manner, monitoring the rear end of the EV6. The available Surround View Monitor gives you a 360-degree view of the area around your car, aiding in collision prevention and parking.
Seven airbags will deploy on impact, including dual advanced front, dual side curtain, dual front side seat, and a driver knee-level. The Lane Keep Assist System will help you stay in your lane with warnings and a gentle nudge from the EV6. Rear Occupant Alert will make sure no matter how busy you are, the smallest members of your family are never left in the car unattended. Safety is best when it protects everyone so you and your family can focus on enjoying the adventures your EV6 carries you toward.
As we see with every new wave of technology, some people are still skeptical about electric cars. When you look at the capabilities of electric vehicle technology, though, there’s little doubt that it’s not only the future but the way to a brighter future for everyone. When the planet is healthy, we all have better tomorrows.
Kia takes its dedication to the environment seriously. The EV6 and its E-GMP platform are a culmination of the brand's efforts. It’s also just the beginning for Kia, for electric vehicles, and for the planet. You can be part of the future without compromising on style, capability, or comfort. The EV6 has all of those qualities and so many more. The future isn’t some far-away goal or dream. The future is here. The future is now. Contact us at Sherwood Kia today to learn more.
