The Kia EV6 fully electric crossover blends practicality, styling panache and fine driving dynamics to good effect. Its roomy interior, useful hatchback configuration, tech forward interior and competitive pricing keep it at the top of EV buyers' shopping list.
Some of the EV6's competition includes the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Ford Mustang Mach-E, VW ID.4, Chevy Equinox EV, and Nissan Ariya.
The EV6 gets a refresh for 2025 that includes bold new front-end styling, redesigned wheels and tweaked rear taillights. The interior gets the big screen treatment along with standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless phone charging, and available fingerprint-authentication system. Below decks, a larger 84.0-kWh battery pack replaces last year's 77.4-kWh unit, slightly boosting driving range. The red-hot 601-hp EV6 GT has been discontinued for 2025.
While we mourn the loss of the blazingly fast GT, the dual motor AWD Land is no slouch with 320 horses and 446 lb-ft of instant torque. The entry level Light RWD makes 167 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, while the Wind RWD ups that to 225 hp with the same 258 lb-ft figure. In any configuration, the EV6 is agile and fun to drive.
The EV6 Wind RWD with its 84 kWh battery is the range topper of the line with a max claim of 513 km. The entry level Light RWD with its smaller battery is good for 381 km. The dual-motor Land AWD is rated at 475 km, dropping to 435 km when the 20-inch wheels of the upper trim packages are added. With its 800-volt architecture, the EV6 is one of the fastest charging electrics. Kia says its battery can be charged from 10 to 80% in under 18 minutes when plugged into a 350-kW fast charger. If you can find one.
Kia equips the EV6 with a full complement of safety features and driver aids – forward collision mitigation, adaptive cruise with stop-and-go, blind spot warning and view monitor, junction turning detection and intersection assist, lane keep assist and semi-autonomous highway drive assist. A 360-degree surround view monitor is fitted to higher trims. The IIHS gives the EV6 an overall Good rating, and the NHTSA bestows its top 5 Star rating.
J.D. Power gives the 2025 Kia EV6 a predicted reliability score of 76 out of a 100, which is considered average. Anecdotally, customers have found the EV6 to be largely problem free.
The EV6 has a comfortable and well-built interior, showing daring styling and overall good ergonomics save for the fussy multi-function rotary controllers. The big screen houses both a 12.3-inch instrument cluster and 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen. The second row is roomy enough for most adults.
While some rivals offer more cargo space, the 690 L found behind the second row, it will be more than enough for most people’s needs. Drop the 60/40-split second row, and capacity expands to 1,322 L. There’s more storage in the front trunk too. The Wind RWD will tow up to 1,653 lbs, and the dual-motor Land is rated for 2,700 lbs.
The 2025 Kia EV6 comes in three trim levels, starting with the Light RWD (63 kWh battery) at $48,995 before freight and taxes. The Wind RWD (84 kWh battery) starts at $55,995, and the Land AWD dual-motor asks $58,495. Add $1500 for the Premium package, $3000 for the GT-Line package, and $6500 for GT-Line Limited package.
