2027 Kia EV6 Pricing Holds Steady After Major 2026 Refresh

We’re now in the final stretch of 2026, and that means we’re getting more pricing announcements for the new model year, with the latest update coming from Kia and its EV6 compact electric crossover. For 2027, the EV6 maintains base pricing and destination charges from the 2026 model year, starting at $37,900 (plus $1,545 for destination). Built at Kia’s assembly plant in West Point, Georgia, the EV6 avoids several costly tariffs applied to imported vehicles, and the carryover pricing applies to all variants in the lineup, which has not lost or gained any trims for 2027. In fact, everything is the same as it was for 2026.

The Kia EV6’s lack of evolution for 2027 is not a surprise because the previous model year underwent multiple convenience and style refinements, including the addition of plug & charge capability—a feature allowing compatible public chargers to automatically authenticate and bill the vehicle without an app or card—and the deletion of the Tech Package on the EV6 Light Long Range model. The EV6 also gained Wolf Gray and Glacier White Pearl exterior colors and a two-tone Saturn Black/Mild Toffee Brown interior scheme, deleting Ivory Silver for the bodywork and Hunter Green/Misty Gray inside. Around the middle of the year, Kia also added the option of a black roof to its new white and gray hues. 2025 also saw a significant styling, driving range, and infotainment processing speed update, along with a built-in NACS charge port—adopting the North American Charging Standard pioneered by Tesla—and new flush-mounted door handles, so there’s no need to update the EV6 for a while.

As before, rear-wheel-drive models have a single rear motor, while AWD models add a motor to the front axle. The Light gets a 63kWh battery (delivering 237 miles of EPA-estimated range), while the Long Range, Wind, and GT-Line variants use an 84kWh battery, with differing power figures for the latter depending on whether it’s a rear-drive (up to 319 miles of range) or AWD version (up to 295 miles of range). The base EV6 makes 167 horsepower and 258 lb-ft, while the Long Range version with RWD makes 225 hp and 258 lb-ft, and the AWD model delivers 320 hp and 446 lb-ft. Those figures remain the same across all trims, so the base EV6 does 0-60 mph in 8.3 seconds, higher RWD trims take 7.3 seconds, and dual-motor models take 5.0 seconds. AWD models also increase top speed from 115 mph to 117 mph.

The Kia EV6 shares its underpinnings and tech with the Hyundai Ioniq 5, both riding on the Hyundai Motor Group’s dedicated Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), but they’re hardly on an even keel in the sales race, with the Ioniq 5 selling over five times as many examples this year. Therefore, Kia can’t really afford to ask more for the 2027 EV6, and dealers will likely be keen to move old inventory. With no changes for the new year, the prudent choice is to look for a lightly used 2026 model at a discount, but it’s also perfectly reasonable to buy new and take advantage of the full warranty coverage, which includes a basic limited warranty for five years/60,000 miles and coverage for the EV system and battery for the first 10 years/100,000 miles.
