Design and Technological Enhancements

The front bumper has been redesigned with sharper angles and character lines on the hood, adding depth to the overall design. At the rear, three-dimensional taillights with the Star Map design language and a visually wider bumper enhance the vehicle’s stance. New wheel designs and front and rear cladding with sharply angled side sill molding further refine the EV6’s profile .
Kia Media
Inside, the EV6 now comes standard with dual 12.3-inch displays that integrate the digital instrument cluster and infotainment touchscreen. Kia’s next-generation Connected Car Navigation Cockpit (ccNC) system supports over-the-air updates, streaming, gaming, and a Wi-Fi hotspot. Automatic pop-out exterior door handles are now standard across all trims. An optional “Tech Package” is available on Light Long-Range configurations, offering advanced driver assistance features such as Surround View Monitor, Parking Distance Warning – Side, Blind-Spot View Monitor, and Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist – Reverse .
Battery and Charging Improvements
The 2025 EV6 introduces larger battery packs across its lineup. The standard battery capacity increases from 58.0 kWh to 63.0 kWh in the Light trim, while the long-range battery grows from 77.4 kWh to 84.0 kWh in the Light Long-Range trim. Kia estimates that the long-range RWD configuration can achieve up to 319 miles of range, though this figure is pending official EPA certification .
Charging has been enhanced with the relocation of the port to the left rear fender, reducing parking challenges at charging stations. Additionally, the EV6 adopts the North American Charging Standard (NACS), allowing broader compatibility with charging networks .
