Kia EV6 2022-2026 Owner's Manual: Electric vehicle overview

The Kia EV6 is powered by an advanced high-voltage battery system and electric drive motor rather than a traditional internal combustion engine. Unlike gasoline-powered vehicles, electric vehicles use electrical energy stored within the high-voltage battery pack to propel the vehicle efficiently and quietly. Because the Kia EV6 operates entirely on electric power, it does not require gasoline and produces no tailpipe emissions during driving, helping reduce environmental impact while delivering smooth acceleration and responsive performance.
