Kia has shown a few teaser images and video on their website of the new EV6 (formally CV) which is Kia's version of the Ioniq 5. Looks like they will be revealing it shortly.

It seems like it will be a good looking crossover. They're going for a more sporty look.

Can't wait to compare it to ID.4 and Ioniq 5!

For those that are interested, there is a Kia EV6 forum here.

I like it better than the ioniq.

I like it better than the ioniq.

I do too. The general shape and idea of the Ioniq 5 looks great some of the details look cheap however. Here are some real pictures of a wrapped EV6 out on the public roads. It looks longer than the Ioniq 5 closer to 185-188 inches long.

Looks sharp. I like the Ioniq 5 exterior better, but I like the interior better on this. Would be a contender for me, especially since I'm sure the pricing will be competitive with the ID.4, but height-wise this looks more hatchback than a crossover.

Edit: Just saw the specs revealed on the Kia forum...

• 300+ mile range
  The E-GMP allows for over 300 miles of continuous driving.
• Charge in 18 minutes
  A charging time from 10-80% in just 18 minutes.
• 0-60 in 3.5 seconds
  Efficient acceleration allows you to go from 0-60 mph in just 3.5 seconds.

Might still be a contendor.

The local Kia dealer in Escondido has them and the price in the window said $68,800 + TTL. Must be a lot nice than my ID.4! Looks similar on the outside though but not as tall.
