Clearly the EX+ and GT-Line will be the LR battery. I'm personally shocked that they're offering the RWD option in anything other than the base EX trim level.
Well, I'm aiming for the GT-Line AWD. Was the bells and whistles and am prepping for it. Just going to have to find a dealer who sticks with MSRP.Clearly the EX+ and GT-Line will be the LR battery.

@Cataract2 I will always order one for you at MSRP.Well, I'm aiming for the GT-Line AWD. Was the bells and whistles and am prepping for it. Just going to have to find a dealer who sticks with MSRP.
@Waynerm002 Yes Sir, that's exactly what I'm saying. I didn't expect an LX. The price of the EV6 will be too high to offer a stripped out model so that's why they're starting with EX. It's the same way with the Niro EV. I believe that they decided to put the GT-Line over the EX because of the branding for the GT high HP model for next year. There won't be an SX for sure.Hmmm..., are you saying KIA will not offer a LX version of the EV6 and the GT Line will be a higher trim than the EX? That's not normal for trim designations for KIA. The EX is normally higher than the GT Line trim and above the EX is usually SX. We could get an SX version, that would be normal, before the GT comes out or not. At this point we really don't know for sure.
I think you're right with the trim designations; prices seem accurate but I hope it is a few grand cheaperHey Everyone! Happy Friday!
Hot off the presses are confirmed trim levels for the US EV6! Here are the FIVE trim levels that are going to be offered for the 2022 model. What you'll notice is that the GT is missing because it will be a 2023. I have noted what I'm GUESSING the pricing will come in at for each trim level. In case you're color blind, the massive word GUESSING bright red... (hey...., it's not confirmed yet)
*EX
---RWD $41,000
*EX+
---RWD $47,000
---AWD $49,500
*GT-Line
---RWD $54,000
---AWD $56,500
Please sell it for less.@Cataract2 I will always order one for you at MSRP.
A loaded-out 2022 will be a GT-Line AWD with probably a Premium or Technology package to top it out around $59K for the 2022 year.
I was estimating that the FE @ $58k would be that top of the GT-Line package price, or at least a good guesstimate to start. So, $59k would be within the error I figure (knowing what you are giving us is the same guesstimate).@Cataract2 I will always order one for you at MSRP.

If things weren't crazy, yeah, I could see less than MSRP. As it is, fair is MSRP IMO.Please sell it for less.![]()
Well, the FE will be $60k MSRP. It's listed at $58,500 BEFORE destination of probably $1,225 and then you have to add floor mats! HahahaI was estimating that the FE @ $58k would be that top of the GT-Line package price, or at least a good guesstimate to start...
Fair enough. Just checking, if you are serious on what you say. You location is IA, correct? We would consider heading your way for a fair transaction.Well, the FE will be $60k MSRP. It's listed at $58,500 BEFORE destination of probably $1,225 and then you have to add floor mats! Hahaha
I'm expecting the sticker to say $59,935.
My feeling is that if this product ends up being that expensive as you have mentioned earlier, people might just head over to Tesla.If things weren't crazy, yeah, I could see less than MSRP. As it is, fair is MSRP IMO.
It's looking like the Kia is also coming in around the same price as the Audi Q4, which is another car I've been considering. That's why I'm so interested in the list of features. Audi's inability to source components for things like the 360 camera, Homelink, and other features originally on the spec sheet are what drove me to look elsewhere. In normal times, people would be reluctant to pay the same price for a Kia as they would a comparable Tesla or Audi, but these aren't normal times. IF Kia can produce the product people want when other brands can't, they might get a foothold in the premium market.My feeling is that if this product ends up being that expensive as you have mentioned earlier, people might just head over to Tesla.
Always a possibility. Comes down to how people value what's offered. I have a test drive of a Model Y today, but I feel it will remain in the #3 slot of which vehicle will replace my Bolt. I test drove the Model 3 in the past and went away from it feeling it was just, ok. Same for the Mach E. Besides the fact that I just am not that much into the whole Tesla ecosphere where they try to be like Apple. Again, really comes down to the person.My feeling is that if this product ends up being that expensive as you have mentioned earlier, people might just head over to Tesla.
I still think people that are looking for the "premium" lines will still gravitate towards them initially. Kia is just not viewed that way. That said, I think you are right, if Kia can produce and have the offering available at a premium, but not premium price (up there, but maybe a few Gs less) then those who can't get all that they want at the "premium" brand dealers will take a look. This might be Kia (and Hyundai's) moment to change their stars. I mean, I never would have thought I would look at a Kia or Hyundai, but here I am.It's looking like the Kia is also coming in around the same price as the Audi Q4, which is another car I've been considering.

You're comparing the RWD Q4 to the AWD EV6. The EV6 is quicker than the Q4, but when comparing apples to apples, they are closer than that.The Q4 is just a nicely dressed ID.4 with similar performance, about 8 seconds to 60. ...the EV6 is rated at 5.2
I would consider Hyundai Kia Automotive Group's luxury brand to be Genesis.KIA doesn’t have a luxury brand
Same.Clearly the EX+ and GT-Line will be the LR battery. I'm personally shocked that they're offering the RWD option in anything other than the base EX trim level.
