2021 Kia EV6 Long Range | 77.4 kWh 77.4 kWh 228 hp Battery, Horsepower, Range
The GT-Line RWD ends up with the longest WLTP range in the pre-2024 EV6 lineup — 528 km (328 mi) — and the reason is straightforward: full 77.4 kWh NMC battery (74 kWh usable), one motor instead of two, less mass to move. That motor makes 168 kW (228 hp) and 350 Nm (258 lb-ft), 7.3 seconds to 100 km/h (62 mph). Body is 4,695 mm long on a 2,900 mm wheelbase (184.8 / 114.2 in), 1,890 mm wide, 160 mm ground clearance (74.4 / 6.3 in). DC charging up to 233 kW. People doing regular long solo drives — commuters, frequent travellers — tend to find this trim makes more sense than the AWD versions once they actually check the numbers.
