Kia has an EV6 on display at this year's Chicago Auto Show. Is anyone going to the show this week?

Soulman, did you actually attend the show? For such an expensive vehicle, you shouldn't see seat rails exposed like that on the floor.

No I couldn't make it down for the show. If it's at the NY Auto Show next month I'll try to go down and see.

What don't you like about the seat rails?

The US market doesn't get the "Premium Relaxation Seats"?? The driver's seat is missing that button. (It's situated above the seat bottom adjustments in the UK thread)

Supposedly. Kia Canada's website has the same splash page as the US but, unlike the US, there has been no media release so we don't know specs or trim levels.

Speaking of trim levels, it appears the US will get an EX, EX Plus and GT-Line trim levels.

EX - 58kWh, RWD, 168hp
EX+ & GT-Line, 77.4kWh, RWD, ~225hp

I guess dual motor is optional but unclear whether it's optional on both EX+ and GT-Line or just GT-Line.

Where did you get this info? I have no idea why both Hyundai and Kia have the lights mostly out on these two models.

Ahh it appears I misunderstood your question. I thought you asked if Kia Canada will sell the EV6, not if Kia Canada will equip the EV6 with relaxation seats.

There is zero information on Canadian spec EV6s at this time. My speculation comes from that image I quoted above (also in the 1st post) where the driver's seat is missing the "lounge" button that is present in the UK photos that other members took at the UK viewings/showings.
