This all-new Kia EV6 is coming in hot!
This is the EV6 GT, and it’s one of the most powerful small EVs you can buy! The question is, can it compete with the Tesla Model 3 Performance? And can it justify the £63,000 price tag?!
Well for starters, let’s look at what you get over the standard EV6. In terms of the exterior design… Well, it’s all pretty similar to the standard EV6! Around the back, you’ll find a larger roof spoiler, a new rear bumper, and some GT badging. The GT also comes riding on 21” as standard, and it also has a slightly redesigned, more aggressive front end. Otherwise, it’s pretty much identical to the normal car!
It’s a similar story on the inside. There’s a fair amount of lime green stitching throughout the cabin, and you’ll also find a pair of new sports seats up front. Apart from that, it’s the same as the normal EV6… But then again, that’s no bad thing!
But of course, if you’re interested in the EV6 GT, you’ll want to know about the motor upgrades! Power output has been boosted pretty significantly, with the EV6 GT producing 585hp and 740Nm - that’s 260hp more than the regular dual-motor EV6!! The GT edition also comes with bigger brakes and tweaked suspension. The only negative, though, is that it’s about 100kg heavier than the regular car, so it tips the scales at 2,185kg.
So what do you think - can this Kia warrant the £63,000 price tag? Or would you just choose a Tesla instead? Let us know in the comments!
