Kia EV6 facelift coming soon 

The Kia EV6 is due a facelift and these are our first glimpses of what the new car will look like. Official pics released by Kia show a new headlight treatment which will help bring the EV6 in line with newer models like the EV9 and EV5. 

Expect a reprofiled bumper which will again ape the EV9. At the rear there’s a subtly revised light bar. And expect funky new wheel designs. 

While there are no pictures of the interior, it’s all but certain to adopt Kia’s latest entertainment system with the ‘triple panorama display’ from the EV9. That would see a 12.3 inch digital display in front of the driver while to the left of that will be the 5-inch display for climate controls along with the 12.3-inch central touch screen. There will be an updated steering wheel too.

We would also bet that the EV6 will inherit the larger battery pack that the updated Hyundai Ioniq 5 gained with its recent update. This would see the overall capacity moving from 77 to 84kWh which will bring with it a few more miles between charges. While the EV6 is a very competent dynamic EV, there would be no harm in further reinforcements to the chassis, which were also introduced on the updated Ioniq 5, along with extra sound deadening for further improvements in refinement. 

All will be revealed when the EV6 facelift is fully unveiled later this month.
