The single-motor version of the Kia EV6 electric SUV sacrifices performance but gains range.

That cabin features a mod-style design with a striped pattern on the dash that repeats on the center armrest, and illuminated blue stripes appear under the vents. The suede seat upholstery with synthetic-leather trim is $295 extra , and its white accents brighten the otherwise black cabin. The rear seat cushion is low—necessary, perhaps, to create adequate headroom for six-footers under the squashed roofline . The seat is plenty wide for three, though, and the floor is flat.

LOWS: Can't hustle like the dual-motor version, some annoying controls, less roomy inside than the Ioniq 5 Up front, dual screens dominate the dash. The central display is impressively broad, although, on the home screen, that space is largely wasted, as the default display is just a clock. Beneath it, the touch-sensitive climate controls oddly also do double duty operating the audio system, meaning you have to toggle back and forth between the two sets of functions.

The 2023 EV6 GT-Line in single-motor form currently starts at $54,225—there's also the EV6 Wind, which can be had in the same configuration for $50,025. For the GT-Line, the single-motor powertrain saves $4700 over the dual-motor version; in the Wind trim level, the difference is $3900. So, we see that those who have mastered the art of patience are rewarded with a fatter wallet as well as the ability to travel greater distances before plugging in.
