An electric wheeled howitzer

Kia’s new EV6 GT is a powerful all-electric crossover built for the new era of sustainable mobility. Kia’s most powerful production car and a new flagship model for the brand, the EV6 GT combines great performance; ability to make long-distance travel with maximum comfort; ultra-fast charging technology; and great autonomy (up to 546 kilometers in the city; 424 in the city) in real traffic conditions. Its maximum speed reaches up to 260 km/h and it can go from 10 to 80% battery charge in just 18 minutes. The price of the new KIA EV6 GT with front-wheel drive is 61,090 euros, while the all-wheel drive version costs 65,090 euros. The performance of the GT model has been significantly improved compared to the standard EV6, thanks to the installation of a new high-performance rear engine with a remarkable increase in total power of 63% compared to the rear engine of the normal version. The EV6 GT’s powerful all-electric powertrain is designed to transfer power to all four wheels to optimize traction and deliver power smoothly, even in the most adverse weather conditions. A motor mounted on the front axle, the same as the standard EV6 AWD, produces 160 kW (218 hp) and when combined with a powerful motor at the rear generating 270 kW (367 hp), brings the combined power to 430 kW (585 hp). ). ); the maximum combined torque is 740 newton meters. With all this “cavalry” it reaches the speed of 100 km/h from standstill in just 3.5 seconds, a figure equal to that of the fastest Porsche, MacLaren, Mercedes or Tesla and that is twice the price of the KIA. , so little. The KIA EV6GT. Kia The design of the EV6 GT offers something different in the electric crossover category, with a distinctive and eye-catching exterior. At the front, Kia’s signature digital ‘tiger nose’ includes LED headlights with adaptive high beam and dynamic sequential indicators. Its sporty character is also reflected in the 21-inch five-spoke alloy wheels, exclusive to the EV6 GT. At the rear, a unique spoiler, LED taillights, bumper and diffuser complete the GT’s transformation. The new KIA EV6 GT has an interior that combines a sporty approach with comfort and functionality. For the occupants, there is a set of suede-trimmed bucket seats that provide full support during spirited driving, as well as great comfort during long-haul journeys. Metal inserts with ‘GT’ lettering and neon green piping add to the chairs’ modern, technical look. The entire interior is finished in premium materials with a stripe pattern that adorns the top of the dashboard and the front center armrest, while mood lighting is also available for the door panel, center console and dashboard. The two 12.3-inch (31 cm) curved information displays display all driving, connectivity and entertainment functions with remarkable clarity. The ergonomic two-spoke steering wheel features a new GT drive mode selector, making it easy to personalize the driving experience. The all-electric powertrain makes the EV6 GT an inherently quiet car, even at high speeds. However, to give the driver and occupants a better idea of ​​the capabilities of the EV6 GT car, it has an active sound design function that provides synthesized amplification of selected sounds through the high-performance audio system, equipped with series. The residents can adjust the character and volume of the generated sound according to their own preferences. Despite its compact exterior dimensions, with a body of 4.70 meters, a wheelbase of almost 3 meters and a flat floor, the EV6 GT results in a cabin space comparable to that of many mid-sized SUVs. It also has a luggage compartment of 480 liters. The EV6 GT’s dedicated suspension keeps it level in all situations by limiting roll when cornering or changing lanes at high speed, as well as roll under braking and hard acceleration. At the same time, regardless of the selected driving mode, it remains a comfortable car even over long distances. The EV6 GT’s suspension also features completely new springs, 9% more flexible at the front and 11% stiffer at the rear, compared to the standard EV6. This better controls body movements and promotes agility. The new springs also lower the body-to-ground height by 5mm. An electronic differential lock (e-LSD), specific to the EV6 GT, ensures that all the power is used efficiently. By automatically transferring engine torque to the wheels with the most grip, it improves traction and cornering stability. The e-LSD includes Intelligent Traction and Skid Mitigation functions, in keeping with the approach of a high performance sports car. The EV6 GT’s Electronic Suspension Control (ECS) ensures fast response and driving comfort thanks to infinitely adjustable dampers. EV6 GT interior. Kia’s Drive Modes allow the driver to tailor the EV6 GT’s overall dynamic character to their own preferences. The new GT mode automatically puts the electric motors, brakes, steering, dampers, electronic stability control (ESC) in their most dynamic settings (Sport or Sport plus), transforming the character and response of the EV6. As with the standard EV6, drivers can choose from six levels of regenerative braking (none, 1-3, “i-PEDAL” and auto mode) depending on the desired level of energy recovery. The «i-PEDAL» mode serves to recover the maximum amount of energy when decelerating or braking, allowing the car to stop smoothly without having to press the brake pedal.
