Jonny Smith and the EV6 GT, Kia's most powerful car ever

There’s a lot that makes the Kia EV6 GT stand out from others in its range. You will have to look hard to spot the differences, though, as Jonny Smith finds out on a road trip to Belgium.

Using a near 600bhp flagship performance EV isn’t the obvious way to pick up some presents and shopping, but then Jonny is never one to take the easy route. On the way, he finds out just how good Kia’s EV6 GT is and that this EV is out of the ordinary for using high performance Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S 255/40 21 tyres in place of the economy-focused tyres of other EV6 models.

With performance to rival a Porsche Taycan, the near £63,000 Kia has plenty to impress its driver and passengers.

Does it excite Jonny as he heads to the Continent? With a range of up to 263 miles and rapid charging available, the EV6 GT is an ideal road trip car. Let’s find out how Jonny gets on as he explores the Kia’s sensationally quick GT mode, shopping in Belgium, and chasing some chickens.
