2023 KIA EV6 Wind

The 2023 EV6 is Kia's dedicated electric crossover, slotting above the Niro EV as the brand's flagship EV. It lines up against the Tesla Model Y, Ford Mustang Mach-E, and Hyundai Ioniq 5. The EV6 feels quick and composed, with instant torque and a low center of gravity that makes it genuinely fun to hustle. The ride is firm and well-controlled, which sharpens handling but means you'll feel sharper pavement impacts. Its fastback SUV body offers a spacious cabin and a useful cargo area, though rear headroom is a bit tight for tall passengers. The Wind is the mid-level trim, splitting the difference between the base Light and the GT-Line, and it's the one most people pick for the balance of price and equipment. This Wind uses a rear-mounted electric motor with 225 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, driving the rear wheels, and it's rated at 232 miles of range. The Wind is the trim to get if you want the bigger battery and longer range without stepping up to the GT-Line's extra cost.
