Electric Kia EV6 takes a bow

The stylish contract hire Kia EV6 is now in showrooms and ready for leasing.

It's an impressive EV with zero-emissions and a long-range battery.

However, its stand-out feature is the 800V ultra-fast charging system that is onboard - this will see a battery being recharged to 80% of its capacity in just 18 minutes.

The new car is being built on an all-new platform designed for electric cars and Kia is making plain that it is pushing hard to deliver a stylish and well-built EV for us to enjoy.

Kia EV6 car lease range

Fitted as standard in the Kia EV6 car lease range is the 77.4kWh lithium-ion battery to offer an impressive 328 miles of range.

From launch, there are two pure electric drivetrains to choose from - either the 226 bhp with power delivered to the rear wheels, or the all-wheel drive 321 bhp offering.

The battery pack is placed underneath the cabin floor to deliver lots of interior space and optimum weight distribution.

This battery pack also lowers the centre of gravity to deliver a more agile performance, particularly when cornering.

Recharging the EV6 battery

Recharging the EV6 battery at home will take around seven hours 20 minutes, but for those with a 50kW charger, this time is one hour 13 minutes.

Kia is also offering an optional heat pump on some models which will be a boon in colder seasons, so the battery lasts longer.

The handling is boosted with the suspension system smoothing out rough roads and drivers can even tow a trailer up to 1,600 kg.

Kia EV6 car lease model line-up

The Kia EV6 car lease model line-up features lots of safety and technology systems.

Drivers get two 12.3-inch displays to create a curved panoramic display which is fitted as standard.

The infotainment system is smartphone compatible, and some models feature an augmented reality head-up display.

Some models also feature autonomous parking so the car will park itself, and safety features include rear-cross traffic alert, blind spot assist and safe exit assist.

There's also a reversing camera system with rear parking sensors on every model, and some models have front parking sensors too.

There's a lot to like about the contract hire Kia EV6 which is an impressive battery-powered car lease offering, and if you are interested in an electric car, then you need to shortlist it.
