The EV6 GT is the high-performance version of Kia's first dedicated electric vehicle, and the most committed Kia ever made. 430 kW, dual motors, an electronic limited-slip differential, and a 0 to 100 km/h time of 3.5 seconds. This is the EV that puts Kia firmly in BMW M and Audi RS territory.
What you are buying
A 77.4 kWh battery, dual motors making a combined 430 kW and 740 Nm, and an 800-volt architecture that lets you charge from 10 to 80 per cent in around 18 minutes on a fast enough charger. The GT spec adds GT-specific suspension, the larger brakes, the upgraded seats, and the bespoke styling.
Cartell Assessment
The EV6 GT is the high-performance EV that proves the Kia brand has properly moved upmarket. It is more committed than a Tesla Model 3 Performance, properly fast in a straight line, and the chassis handles the weight better than it has any right to. The compromise is the GT-specific ride firmness on Australian B-roads.
AU Outlook
EV6 GT pricing in Australia sits at $99,590 plus on-road costs. Cross-shop is the Tesla Model 3 Performance, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 N, and the BMW i4 M50.
