The Be EV6 in 2026 will begin $72,660 before on-road costswith price increases of just $70 in each of the four model grades.
The modest price increase comes with an updated exterior design, interior improvements and a larger battery that should provide improved range.
According to a press release from Kia Australia, the updated range will be available in showrooms “shortly”.
Every EV6 now comes with the same 84kWh lithium-ion battery, replacing the 77.4kWh unit previously offered.
The range of the entry-level Air RWD model increases by 54 km and is now expected to reach a range of 582 km according to the WLTP test cycle.
The GT-Line RWD has a range of 560 km, with the range dropping to 522 km for the GT-Line AWD and 450 km for the GT.

The update also brings a revised front bumper as well as new “Star Map” headlights and daytime running lights (DRLs).
At the rear, the EV6 gets a new bumper with “Star Map”-style taillights, as well as a revised wing shape that Kia says better blends the front and rear design.
New alloy wheel designs ranging from 19 to 21 inches in diameter will also be offered, while driving dynamics on the flagship GT are set to be improved for Australian conditions with changes to the suspension, including stiffer front and rear anti-roll bars and softer springs at the front.
Kia promises the GT has more grip and steering feedback.
Inside, the EV6’s cabin features a new steering wheel design and an updated center console, with fingerprint recognition now available across the range.
The updated software for the two 12.3-inch curved displays offers wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity, updated graphics and Kia Connect – the brand’s connected services system that enables over-the-air (OTA) software updates.
There are no changes to the electric motors. The single-motor Air RWD continues to produce 168kW and 350Nm, while the twin-motor AWD EV6 offers a combined output of 239kW and 605Nm. The flagship GT AWD variant with two motors retains its output of 430 kW and 740 Nm.
Like the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 with which it shares components, Australian sales of the EV6 slowed in 2025, with the Kia suffering one of the biggest sales declines at 80.5 percent year-on-year.
