What is Under the Hood of the 2025 Kia EV6?
The EV6 features an electric motor set on a rear axle and rear-wheel drive. However, you have the choice of two electric motors placed on the front and rear axles for all-wheel drive. Rear-wheel drive models get 167 or 225 horsepower, while all-wheel drive models crank out 320 or 576 total horses.
But there’s even more power in the GT—it gets a whopping 576 ponies and features enhancements like firmer chassis tuning, an adaptive suspension, an electronic limited-slip differential, and stronger brakes.
The Light (base) trim with rear-wheel drive features a smaller 58.0-kWh battery pack while the other trims have the 84.0-kWh battery in place of the 77.4-kWh from 2024. While we don’t have exact mileage for 2025, it should be better than last year’s numbers. Kia has stated its battery can be charged up to 80 percent in under 18 minutes when using a 350-kW fast charger.
We expect the EV6 to have combined mileage of up to 117 MPGe for the single-motor version, and 109 MPGe on dual-motors. If that changes, we’ll be sure to let you know.
What Is the Interior of the 2025 Kia EV6 Like?
The EV6’s interior is elegant and high-tech with its large digitized screen placed on the dash, a two-tone, two-spoke steering wheel, center console start button and gold accents throughout the cabin. Passenger space is plentiful, no matter where you sit.
The 12.3-inch infotainment system touchscreen is next to a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster. Tech features include wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and smartphone charging, a Wi-Fi hotspot and available over-the-air updates and voice commands. You can also upgrade to a Meridian stereo system with 14 speakers.
