What we know about the KIA EV6
The EV6 will be KIA’s first electric offering in the Indian market. KIA plans on bringing the electric SUV in via the CBU (completely built unit) route. This means that the prices are surely not going to be as lucrative as the Seltos or the Sonet. Like every other KIA, the EV6 will also be loaded with high-tech features and even an extensive ADAS set-up for enhanced safety.
