Driven by Jenny
We have driven the EV6. Watch the full review for the verdict.
Why consider it
- The 84 kWh battery and 800V architecture: up to 582 km WLTP on the Air and 10 to 80% charging in about 18 minutes on a 350 kW charger.
What to know
- Priced well above the Chinese mid-size EVs, and the sloping roof trims rear headroom against the boxier EV5 and Ioniq 5.
Who it suits
EV buyers who road-trip and want 800V charging that adds real range in a coffee stop, with a sleeker, lower body than the EV5.
