Facelifted Kia EV6 Spied With New Headlights And Curvier Accents

The Kia EV6 still feels new, but the model was introduced nearly three years ago. Given that, it’s not surprising spy photographers have snapped a facelifted prototype undergoing testing in Europe.

Caught heavily disguised, the 2025 EV6 will adopt a new front fascia and restyled headlights. The latter can be seen peeking out from beneath the camouflage and they appear to adopt a triangular design with stacked LEDs.

Further below, we can see a central intake with a new rectangular mesh pattern. Additional details are hard to make out, but it appears the bumper might be slightly more curvaceous.

Facelifted Kia EV6 Spied With New Headlights And Curvier Accents

The rest of the crossover is familiar, but we can see what appears to be a new rear bumper. It also looks like the automaker could swap the position of some painted and gloss black accents out back. While that remains to be seen, we can expect updated wheels as well as a revised color palette.

Previous spy photos from South Korea have shown interior updates, but their extent remains to be seen. However, some of the changes appear focused on elevating the cabin and making it feel more luxurious.

Powertrain details remain more elusive, but the current model has 58 and 77.4 kWh battery packs that offer EPA ranges of between 218 and 310 miles (351 and 499 km). Speaking of numbers, the EV6 has outputs ranging from 167 hp (125 kW / 169 PS) to 576 hp (430 kW / 584 PS).

Gearhead Nirvana: We Visit Porsche’s Atlanta Workshop Where Classics Get Reborn

Image
Maintaining any car is a duty that different owners approach in vastly different ways. For some, a few zip ties and a rattle can of spray paint is good enough. Far on the other end of the spectrum are owners like the ones who take their car to the Porsche Classic Center in Atlanta. During our trip there to see the new Macan EV in virtual reality , we had the opportunity to tour the Classic Center as it was deep in the midst of multiple repair and restoration projects.  To the owners of these cars and to the Porsche brand itself, what these mechanics, technicians, upholsterers, and painters are preserving is heritage. The center’s mantra “As good as new. But with even more character” is on display for anyone who visits the site.

The New Honda Prelude Will Be A Global Model, But It Won’t Be A Toyota GR 86

Image
Last month, Honda rolled out the red carpet for the the hybrid Prelude Concept , heralding the comeback of a historic name in the motoring world. Now, this car has been given the green light as a global model, set to cater to both right- and left-hand drive markets. However, it might not quite rev up to be the full-throttle sports car many enthusiasts were anticipating Despite being labeled a concept by Honda, the car presented at the Japan Mobility Show (JMS) looked quite production-ready. And if we know anything about Honda, they have a knack for unveiling thinly-disguised production cars as concepts. Take the last two Civics, for example. The 10th-gen Civic Concept was more or less the Civic coupe of that generation with a more aggressive stance and altered bumpers, while the 11th-gen Civic Prototype was virtually the same sedan that made it to production.

As Good As New Porsche 918 Spyder With Just 43 Miles Could Fetch $2 Million

Image
This Porsche 918 has been kept in a climate-controlled storage facility ever since it was delivered. The car is one of just four Hong Kong-spec 918s in existence. Driving the hypercar is a 4.6-liter V8 hybrid powertrain with 887 hp. A 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder that has never been registered will be available at a Hong Kong auction running from April 2-5 and is expected to sell for between $1.5 million and $2 million. The 918 Spyder launched as one of the ‘hypercar holy trinity’ alongside the Ferrari LaFerrari and McLaren P1. While there are many low-mileage examples out there, few are thought to have been driven less than this one. Over the past decade, it has been driven less than 70 km (43 miles) and has been owned by a single person in Hong Kong. It has also never been registered for road use. The listing doesn’t specify how the car has racked up 70 km without being registered. Read: This Porsche 918 Is One Of Just 2 With A Gulf Oil Livery Nevertheless, this car i...
