The Kia EV6 GT is the performance iteration of Kia’s first dedicated battery electric vehicle. It’s built on the Hyundai E-GMP platform, an 800V modular base for electric vehicles shared by brands within the same automotive group. It underpins other recently popular cars such as the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and the Genesis GV60.
The EV6 GT is powered by two motors, a 270kW rear and 160kW front that provides it with a total of 576 horsepower, 546 pound-feet of torque, and all-wheel drive performance. 320 horsepower is as much as the other AWD EV6 models can muster up, so this is quite a substantial leap in output. Kia says this is accomplished by basically moving the AWD EV6’s rear motor to the front and replacing it with another, more powerful unit. Speaking of leaps, the additional grunt gives the EV6 GT the ability to rocket from 0 to 60 in just 3.4 seconds and sail to a top speed of 161 mph.
With extra power comes the need for extra control, and so the EV6 GT comes with upgrades to the suspension, specifically one that’s been reworked for performance that features electronically controlled dampers and unique sport components in the front. Control is enhanced by the inclusion of an e-diff to balance out the torque, and larger front and rear disc brakes.
