2026 Kia EV6 review

The Kia EV6 has been treated to a handful of thoughtful upgrades, sweetening the appeal of an already-solid electric SUV.

Kia borrows learnings from the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N and applies them to the updated EV6 GT – have we got an all-time great driver’s car here?

We still rate the Kia EV6 GT, don't get us wrong. But this sleek, extremely rapid EV has had some of its thunder stolen by another car.

It'll do 0-100 quicker than you can say "is that a Kia?!", but the EV6 GT also proves performance EVs can be both fun and attainable.

The entry Kia EV6 Air is an eye-catching and impressively resolved ground-up electric crossover from a brand on the march.

The mid-spec EV6 is arguably the sweet spot, with a good balance of performance, features and value – but it's now nearly $5000 dearer.

The EV6 is a statement of intent from Kia. It's a worthy flagship, and shows there's plenty to look forward to as its next-generation electric cars roll out.

The latest tech, long range and head-turning looks make the EV6 one of the electric cars to look out for in 2022 – it’s great to drive too.
