Make way for Kia EV6

The Kia EV6, the Korean carmaker’s first full EV in India, has been launched at a starting price of ₹ 59.95 lakh for the rear-wheel drive (RWD) variant, going up to ₹ 64.95 lakh for the all-wheel drive (AWD) version (ex-showroom, India). 

The Kia EV6 is pricey as it comes to our shores as a full import (CBU) and will be limited to only 100 units for 2022. It will sell only through 15 dealerships in 12 cities. Deliveries for the new Kia electric will begin in September 2022. Kia also revealed that they have received 355 bookings for the EV6 so far, and are trying to increase allocation to meet the demand.  

The Kia EV6 currently does not have a direct rival in our market. The only other model that comes close in terms of price is the recently launched BMW i4 electric sedan (₹ 69.90 lakh, ex-showroom), which has an 83.9kWh battery pack and 590km claimed range.
