Bharat Mobility Expo 2025: The facelifted Kia EV6 is likely to be priced higher than the current model, which is available for Rs 60.96 lakh (ex-showroom).
Bharat Mobility Expo 2025: Kia has unveiled the EV6 Facelift in India at the ongoing auto expo at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. First introduced in South Korea in May 2024, the all-new EV6 has an updated exterior, enhanced features, and a new battery option that enhances both range and driving experience. One of the most noticeable changes is the completely redesigned front end. The iconic 'eyebrow' DRLs are replaced by slim, C-shaped headlamps. Additionally, the front bumper and grille sport a more sculpted, angular design, enhancing the car’s sporty and dynamic look. While the newly designed 19-inch alloy wheels add a fresh touch, the profile remains unchanged. The rear section keeps the familiar full-width LED light bar, but a closer look at the bumper reveals subtle updates.
