The Kia EV6 has officially been tested under the ARAI test cycle. Thus the EV now comes with a travel range of 708km. Meanwhile, its WLTP-certified driving range stands at 528km. Noteworthy to mention that the ARAI-tested 708 km range figure is only applicable to the EV6 GT Line RWD variant.

Kia EV6 Delivery Schedule

Previously, the South Korean automaker had planned only 100 CBU units of the EV6 for the Indian market. But, it received 356 reservations until its launch day itself. Thus, the brand has now increased the total allocation of EV6 units. As of now, Kia has managed to deliver over 200 units of the EV so far. Kia has plans to complete most of the pending deliveries by the end of 2022.
