2026 Kia EV6 review

Kia EV6: everyday electric done right. Illustrative review

8.7/10 OffLot expert score

The 2026 Kia EV6 sits near the top of its class. Roomy second row and flexible cargo floor; standard driver-assist suite. Touch-only climate controls on some trims and engine gets loud under hard acceleration, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $44,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

Great daily driver

Replaced an older Kia with this one. Big step up in cargo room; I'd like a little more power from the base engine.

★★★★☆Omar M. · Denver, CO · 17 months owned
Exactly what we needed

We cross-shopped three others and this won on cargo room. the touchscreen climate controls is the trade-off.
