Since it hit the market in 2017, the Kia Stinger has seen several upgrades. However, the company announced the end of this model, making way for the all-electric EV6 GT, the most powerful vehicle Kia has ever produced.

Kia EV6 GT is powered by a front and rear electric motor with a total power of 576 hp (424 kW) and 545 lb-ft (740 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a 1-speed automatic transmission. It reaches 60 mph in 3.2 seconds with a top speed of 161 mph (259 km/h). This means that it is not only a more powerful but also a faster car than the Stinger. It is mounted on a set of 21-inch wheels.

The EV6 GT is built on Kia’s Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) designed for high electric vehicle power. With powerful motors on both axles and a long-range, 77.4 kWh battery, located under the flat floor of the cabin, the EV6 GT offers a spacious interior in the elegant form of a coupé-inspired crossover. Its range on a single charge is up to 206 miles / 424 km (WLTP, combined), while its 800V charging technology allows it to charge the battery very quickly from 10 to 80 percent in just 18 minutes.

The car is already on sale and deliveries can be expected by the end of the year. The starting price of the Kia EV6 GT is $62,695 USD.
