![]() Even as the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster displays higher and higher speeds, Kia’s sportiest EV feels planted and stable, with none of the front-end wander that plagues lesser EV6s. The Kia shoves off the line with authority courtesy of four-wheel grip and instantaneous torque.īut that doesn’t mean the EV6 GT is a loose cannon. The EV6 GT sprints to 60 miles per hour in 3.4 seconds – four-tenths quicker than the standard Ford Mustang Mach-E GT and one-tenth faster than the Tesla Model Y Performance – and it carries on to a top speed of 161 mph. While the Eco, Normal, and Sport modes restrain the electric motors’ output slightly, GT mode unleashes their full, 576-hp force, uncorking the most powerful and quickest-accelerating Kia ever built. ![]() That GT button activates a driving mode that is exclusive to the flagship EV6 trim. Between the heavily bolstered sport seats and the neon-colored “GT” button on the steering wheel, it’s clear from the moment your butt hits the fabric that this EV is no shirking violet. The thick-rimmed steering wheel and microfiber suede bucket seats also get some bright green accents, helping liven up the otherwise all-black cabin. That acidic shade carries into the cabin via an applique on the center console and dashboard. The most conclusive evidence of the performance under the skin is the GT-specific set of 21-inch wheels wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 tires – up an inch over the GT-Line – as well as the 15.0-inch front and 14.2-inch rear brakes with neon green calipers. The rear bumper has been reshaped a bit with vertical strakes in the diffuser styling element, but the overall design is like that of its kid siblings. ![]() On the GT, the front fascia is a bit more aggressive than the base EV6 Wind, but it’s shared with the similarly named, but less powerful, EV6 GT-Line.
