    Kia EV6 to be launched in India on June 2

    What's the story

    Kia Motors will officially introduce its all-electric EV6 crossover in India on June 2. The company will commence pre-bookings for the car on May 26.

    The EV is based on Hyundai's E-GMP platform, which it shares with the IONIQ 5 from the sister brand. The vehicle has a futuristic design and a tech-biased cabin.

    It will arrive here as a completely built unit (CBU).

    Context

    Why does this story matter?

    Kia Motors has made its mark in the SUV and MPV segments in the Indian market. Now the South Korean automaker plans to do the same in the EV category with its EV6 electric crossover.

    However, only 100 units of the vehicle will be sold here due to the import restrictions, unlike its cousin, the Hyundai IONIQ 5, which will be assembled locally.

    On the sides, it is flanked by blacked-out pillars, indicator-mounted ORVMs, and 19-inch alloy wheels.
