Verdict
SUV électrique de 4,68 m, 5 places, coffre de 542 litres, noté 5 étoiles à Euro NCAP en 2022. Plusieurs rappels ont visé les premières séries : le module de charge ICCU et la batterie 12 V (EV6 fabriquées d'avril 2021 à février 2024, plus de 10 000 voitures en France) et le frein de stationnement électrique (2021-2022). CarVerif conseille les millésimes 2023-2024 ou, pour les 2021-2022, un dossier réseau documenté ; des propriétaires font aussi état de nombreux bugs logiciels.

You are importing the car to:
Import penalty (malus) in France
- The CO₂ malus follows the scale of the year the vehicle was first registered, in France or abroad (WLTP or NEDC scale depending on its registration certificate).
- For an imported used car, it is reduced by a flat-rate discount based on its age in months (scheme in force since 1 March 2025). The weight malus also applies on first registration in France.
- The malus is zero for a car more than fifteen years old or first registered before 1 January 2015.

Recalls published in France (RappelConso)
- 4 September 2025 — L'unité de contrôle de charge intégrée (iccu) peut se détériorer au fil du temps en raison de la haute tension et des variations de température. En conséquence, l'iccu peut ne pas être en mesure de charger la batterie, ce qui entraîne une décharge progressive et des réductions de la puissance d'entraînement. Si le conducteur continue à conduire le véhicule malgré les avertissements, cela peut entraîner une perte complète de la puissance motrice. Cela augmente le risque d'accidents et de blessures.

Inspection checklist
Kia EV6 I — inspection checklist
Things to check
- Faire vérifier avec le numéro de série, chez un concessionnaire Kia, que le rappel de l'ICCU et celui du frein de stationnement électrique ont été effectués.
- Demander si la batterie 12 V a déjà été remplacée et si la voiture a déjà été immobilisée.
- Tester le sélecteur de vitesse (mode Drive), l'écran au démarrage, la caméra de recul et la connectivité pendant l'essai.
- Contrôler l'état de santé de la batterie de traction et l'autonomie affichée à pleine charge.
- Vérifier la garantie constructeur restante (7 ans) et le carnet d'entretien : les révisions annuelles conditionnent la garantie.
Questions to ask the seller
- Les rappels (ICCU et batterie 12 V, frein de stationnement) ont-ils été effectués ? Avez-vous les justificatifs du concessionnaire ?
- La batterie 12 V a-t-elle déjà été remplacée, ou la voiture a-t-elle eu une panne d'alimentation ?
- Quelle version (batterie et motorisation) est-ce, et quelle autonomie réelle observez-vous en hiver ?
Test-drive tip: read the fault codes
A warning light that is off proves nothing: a fault may have been cleared just before the viewing. A Bluetooth OBD2 scanner, plugged in under the steering wheel and read on your phone, shows stored codes and whether all emissions readiness tests have run since the last reset.
