What's New for the 2026 Kia EV6?
The Kia EV6 remains a frontrunner in the competitive family SUV market. While the 2026 model year focuses on refinement rather than a total overhaul, drivers will notice that premium features have moved further down the trim lineup, offering more bang for your buck than previous years. With an expanded variety of rear-wheel and all-wheel drive configurations, the latest EV6 is designed to fit a wider range of lifestyles and driving needs.
What Are the 2026 EV6 Trims & Features?
The 2026 EV6 lineup is diverse, featuring the Light RWD, Light Long Range RWD, Light Long Range AWD, Wind RWD, GT-Line RWD, Wind AWD, and the high-performance GT-Line AWD.
Visually striking as ever, the 2026 Kia EV6 is offered in nine sophisticated colors, such as Runway Red, Nebular Blue, and Ebony Black. The entry-level Light RWD doesn't skimp on tech, offering 19-inch Dark Gray alloy wheels, full LED lighting, and a massive 24.6-inch panoramic display equipped with Kia Connect and SiriusXM. For those seeking more luxury, the GT-Line RWD includes a 14-speaker Meridian Premium audio system, a head-up display, and customizable ambient lighting-with the added option of Black SynTex Suede upholstery. Meanwhile, the Wind AWD is built for comfort and control, featuring a dual-motor setup, a heated steering wheel, and heated outboard rear seats.
How Much Horsepower Does the 2026 EV6 Have?
Performance is a major highlight for the 2026 EV6, which offers several distinct power outputs. The all-wheel drive models are particularly potent, delivering either 320 or a massive 641 total horsepower. If you prefer a rear-wheel drive setup, you can choose between a steady 167 horsepower or a more spirited 225 horsepower. Regardless of the configuration, the EV6 provides instant electric torque and impressive acceleration.
What Safety Features Does the 2026 EV6 Include?
Kia continues to lead with a "safety-first" philosophy, equipping every 2026 EV6 with a robust suite of standard driver-assistance technologies. This includes essential tools like automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic collision-avoidance. For even greater protection, trims like the Wind RWD come with enhanced emergency braking that adds junction crossing detection and evasive steering assistance. We encourage you to experience how these intuitive systems work during a personalized test drive.
