Power liftgate opening speed

To change the Kia EV6 power liftgate opening speed, select Setup > Vehicle > Door > Power Liftgate Opening Speed > Normal/Fast in the infotainment system. The default setting is 'Fast'.

The adjustable speed setting allows Kia EV6 owners to optimize liftgate operation depending on parking environments or personal preference.

To adjust the Kia EV6 power liftgate opening height, select Setup > Vehicle > Door > Power Liftgate Opening Height > Full Open/Level 3/Level 2/Level 1/User Height Setting in the infotainment system.

Additional details about the Kia EV6 liftgate configuration features can be found in the infotainment system manual supplied with the vehicle.

User height setting

Manually position the Kia EV6 liftgate to the preferred opening height.
Press and hold the power liftgate open/close button located inside the liftgate for more than 3 seconds.

When 'User Height Setting' is selected, the Kia EV6 power liftgate will automatically open to the custom height previously stored by the driver.

TIP

If no custom height has been stored, selecting 'User Height Setting' in the Kia EV6 infotainment system will cause the liftgate to fully open.

If one of the predefined height settings such as Full Open, Level 3, Level 2, or Level 1 was previously selected and then User Height Setting is activated, the liftgate will operate according to the manually stored position.

The Kia EV6 power liftgate opening speed and height preferences are linked to the active user profile. Changing the user profile may automatically adjust these liftgate settings.
