The facelifted EV6 improves over the pre-facelift EV6 in following areas:
- Bigger usable battery → longer range
Long-range pack grows from 77.4 kWh to 84 kWh, lifting WLTP range (RWD) from ~528 km to ~581 km (328 → 361 miles). AWD sees a similar bump. (InsideEVs) - Faster peak DC charging
Max charge power rises from ~239 kW to ~258 kW (about +8%), keeping the 10–80% ~18 min claim when you hit a sufficiently powerful 350 kW charger. (InsideEVs) - Updated design & lighting
New front/rear fascias with Kia’s Star Map LEDs, tweaked bumpers, and fresh wheel designs for a sharper look. (Car and Driver) - Ride/comfort tuning
Kia retuned the suspension to address the old car’s firmness; result is a more compliant ride without losing pace. (Top Gear) - Infotainment & UX upgrades
Panoramic display UI refresh (ccNC in many markets), wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto now standard, and a fingerprint driver authentication option for profiles and start. (Car and Driver) - Driver-assist & parking tech (availability varies by trim/market)
Expanded ADAS/parking features such as Remote Smart Parking Assist and broader sensor coverage vs earlier trims. (Baseline 2024 feature matrix for context + 2025 adds/packaging changes.) (Kia Media) - Charging-ecosystem readiness (NA market note)
2025 EV6 adds a native NACS (Tesla) port in North America, improving Supercharger access (market-specific but a real-world upgrade there). (The Verge)
