Kia is gearing up to introduce a special edition EV6 on August 18, but multiple dealers have beaten them to the punch by listing the model online and even throwing in discounts of $6,000 or more.
While full details will be announced later this week, the special edition celebrates the EV6 being named 2023 North American Utility Vehicle of the Year. Dealers aren’t leaving much up to the imagination as they’ve posted pictures showing an exclusive Deep Forest Green paint job that contrasts with gloss black accents.

The special touches continue in the desert beige interior, which sports a “Limited Edition” badge on the center console. The model also has a unique geometric pattern on the dashboard.
While the special edition was initially believed to be based on the Kia EV6 GT-Line, numerous listings show the package being offered on the all-wheel drive EV6 Wind and having a base price of around $59,000 before discounts.
We’ll learn more shortly, but the all-wheel drive EV6 Wind has a 77.4 kWh battery pack and a dual-motor powertrain producing 320 hp (239 kW / 324 PS) and 446 lb-ft (604 Nm) of torque. This enables the model to accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in 5.1 seconds, before hitting a top speed of 117 mph (188 km/h). Drivers can also expect to travel 282 miles (454 km) on a single charge.
