The 2023 Kia EV6 GT is the quickest Kia yet:
Mechanical changes are more significant. The GT is powered by significantly brawnier motors than the current all-wheel-drive EV6, with the one at the front now having a maximum output of 215 horsepower and the rear unit making up to 362 horsepower. The rear axle also features a torque-biasing differential that varies the amount of thrust sent to each wheel, and the rear motor adds another bit of leading-edge EV tech, a two-stage inverter that uses silicon-carbide semiconductors.
Pressing the GT button on the steering wheel also unlocks the further option of the drift mode. This, you will be entirely unsurprised to hear, is huge fun—even if it's hard to imagine too many EV6 buyers making even occasional use of it.
Driving aside, the GT is pretty much indistinguishable from the existing EV6. The cabin is spacious and solidly constructed, although the dark, durable materials separate the GT from the more luxurious alternatives its performance puts it into contention with. Similarly, the 12-inch central touchscreen's user interface is more effective than impressive, with the navigation system feeling clunky and a little old-fashioned. Fortunately, drivers can use Apple CarPlay and Android Auto instead.
