Kia EV6 GT gains adjustable suspension and a new set of wheels

The range-topping GT version of the already sporty Kia EV6 combines near supercar-level performance with good looks, but it could arguably use a few handling tweaks. That’s what the upgrade shown here aims to accomplish.

First off, the car gets a set of KW V3 coil-over springs that can be flexibly adjusted for compression and rebound. You can also lower the ride height at either axle by 20–45 mm (0.8–1.8 inches) with millimeter precision. A full set costs £3,085 in the UK, which roughly translates into U.S. $3,900.

As for the wheels, the set seen here is called BBS CC-R Unlimited and comes finished in a shade known as White Gold. The rims cost £2,500 ($3,200) without tires.

In case you forgot, the Kia EV6 GT (see video) makes use of two electric motors producing a combined 584 PS (576 hp / 430 kW). It sprints from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in three and a half seconds.
