Perfect for anything from daily commutes to off-roading to fun at the racetracks, the 2024 EV6 spoils you with powertrain choices. A 58 kWh battery is standard on the base trim and pairs with a single electric motor driving the rear wheels. This system produces 167 horsepower, which is more than enough for responsive handling in the city.
A 78 kWh battery pack is available, paired either with a single or a dual-motor setup. The RWD variant pumps out 225 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, whereas the eAWD system delivers 320 horsepower and 446 lb-ft of torque. If you need more power, choose the EV6 GT, which provides a whopping 576 horsepower and 545 lb-ft of torque for a 0-60 mph time of 3.2 seconds.
Range
No matter which powertrain you like, the 2024 EV6 can take you far. The base configuration boats 232 miles per charge, but you can get up to 310 miles from the upper RWD trims. Charging is fast, with the battery replenishing from 10 to 80 percent in about 18 minutes at DC fast-charging stations.
Interior and Cargo
With seating for five, the 2024 EV6 is a great daily driver. In true EV spirit, the interior is eco-friendly, featuring a combination of vegan leather and recycled fabric seating surfaces that give the cabin an upscale sporty feel. Behind the rear seats, 24.4 cubic feet of cargo capacity gives you plenty of room for daily items.
