    EV6 Pricing Announced by Kia America for the 2022 model

      Kia America has released pricing for the 2022 EV6 model by trim level.

    Back in May 2021, we covered the details that KIA released around their first BEV for the U.S. marketplace. At that time KIA did not release pricing.

    Now we have actual pricing that shows the KIA EV6 will start at $33,400 factoring in the available federal tax credit of $7,500. KIA also stated the following:

    • EV6 eligible for sale in all 50 states
    • Available in Light, Wind and Sporty GT-Line trim configurations
    • State-of-the-art 77.4kWh high-density lithium-ion battery allows up to a 310-mile range
    • Innovative Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function turns EV6 into a mobile power source for the world around it

    Excluding the $1,215 dollar destination charge, the EV6 has the following trim levels:

    • EV6 Light RWD - $40,900
    • EV6 Wind RWD - $47,000
    • EV6 Wind Dual Motor e-AWD - $50,900
    • EV6 GT-Line RWD - $51,200
    • EV6 GT-Line Dual Motor e-AWD - $55,900

    Depending on model you get one of two battery packs58.0kWh or 77.4kWh battery pack and performance up to 320 horsepower with an EPA rated all-electric range up to 310 miles depending on configuration. The battery pack to trim level is as follows:

    • RWD - 58.0kWh battery with a 168kW rear motor yields 167 horsepower and an AER (all-electric range) of 232-miles (Light RWD)
    • RWD - 77.4kWh battery with 168kW rear motor yields 225 horsepower and an AER of 310-miles (Wind RWD, GT-Line RWD)
    • Dual Motor e-AWD - 77.4kWh battery with a 74kW front motor and a 165kW rear motor yields 320 horsepower and AER of 274-miles (Wind AWD, GT-Line AWD)

    The EV6 might also qualify for various state incentives, including single rider carpool lane access in California, check your state for any addition incentives such as an example in Washington state where no sales tax is paid on the sales price up to $45,000.

    EV6 is expected to start arriving at KIA dealerships in various trim levels in the upcoming weeks of February 2022.

    Priced similar to a Ford Mustang Mach-E or VW iD4, but those don't sell too well, so I don't think this K - backwards N vehicle will do any better.  $51k for the 225 hp, rear drive GT line, that is more than an all wheel drive BMW X3 or Mercedes GLC300, each of which have more power and aren't a Kia.

    Where is Mercedes-Benz, The Best or Nothing is NOTHING right now in the BEV market and you know this. Mach-e is out selling the Vaporware MB BEV lineup.

    Save $300 and get the 320hp AWD model.

    They are selling the most luxurious, highest tech EV available.  And plenty more coming.  Plus the EQS isn't double the price of an S-class, like how the EV6 is double the price of a Sportage of which is of similar size.

    • This is not going to help return steel production to the U.S. Explosion at US Steel plant in Pennsylvania leaves 2 dead, 10 injured
    • GOP is in for a major reconning imho. Enough people are educated enough to understand that others should not be dictating how another lives especially when you do not pay for their life style, etc. We are coming up on one of the biggest money exchanges ever as the Boomers die off. Yes those that inherit billions are never really going to change their ways, but the bulk of society is not happy with what is going on and I think outside of meddling by Musk and others for the attempted control by Billionaires, U.S. society will stop this. Sadly it will be too late for leadership of this country as that ship sailed and has been sunk by imbeciles. I fear there is going to be major reconning for various industries. Steel, Aluminum, etc. are not going to come back in the droves that current lemmings think they will. Manufacturing of various kinds will also not come back, just to much to setup up and have covered that are already in places with much cheaper labor. BIGGEST area is the American Auto Industry where I believe it will truly be reduced to a fraction of what it is today and just be more of a foot note in history in a couple decades. Very sad due to poor leadership at many levels that cannot seem to see the future. Was waiting to hear if @Drew Dowdell was going to post a story on this or not, but here is the press release of the Cadillac Velocity Concept that channels the essence of the Cadillac V-Series of autos.

    • True that..I ignore much of modern American culture and people...I really have no interest in what the generican masses are into, F them...a nation full of lobotomized imbeciles.   All my stuff is here, my dogs, my house, my cars, my sister, a few friends.   Not interested in moving again--I've moved 5 times in the last 30 years, 4 states.  That's enough..
