Kia EV6 coming to India? Trademark filed

Written by Nizam Shaikh

Kia has filed trademarks for the EV6 electric vehicle in the Indian market. The brand has not just filed trademarks for the EV6 brand but what appears to be its variants. Because the trademarks have been filed at the Indian Intellectual Property office we believe that Kia could be planning to launch the pure electric vehicle soon. In total, the brand has filed five trademarks. These include – EV6, EV6 Air, EV6 Water, EV6 Light and EV6 Earth. Air, Water, Light and Earth appear to be the variants of the EV6 electric vehicle.
