The Kia EV6 Air is the entry-level trim in Kia's futuristic EV6 range, but it still offers a premium EV experience. Built on the same E-GMP platform as the Hyundai Ioniq 5, the EV6 Air delivers strong range, fast charging, and advanced safety features—making it a favorite among Australian EV adopters.
The EV6 Air has a WLTP range of up to 528 km, and its sleek, aerodynamic body helps cut through drag and boost efficiency. Inside, drivers are treated to a clean layout, large dual screens, and Kia's latest infotainment and ADAS technology. It's stylish, smooth, and super practical.
Kia Australia equips the EV6 Air with:
Like the Ioniq 5, the 19-inch tyres prioritize ride quality and energy efficiency. The 20-inch upgrade offers a sharper visual look and firmer road response but may reduce overall range slightly.
Load indexes of 101 and 105 make these tyres suitable for heavier EV setups, supporting 825-925 kg per wheel.
Choosing the right tyres means going beyond size—you need tyres that are purpose-built for EVs. These come with reinforced sidewalls to handle instant torque, and low rolling resistance compounds that preserve your range without sacrificing grip.
For Australian conditions, look for tyres rated for both dry and wet traction. With unpredictable rain and long-distance heat exposure, a quality tread pattern can make a real difference in braking distance and cornering control.
If you go for the 20-inch wheels, be aware they'll ride firmer—so choose W- or Y-rated EV tyres with noise-reducing foam, extra load capacity, and strong wet weather performance. Brands like Michelin, Pirelli, and Bridgestone all offer EV-specific models tailored for these needs.
Also—don't skip the rotation every 10,000 km. EVs wear tyres faster due to their torque-heavy nature, and with AWD and rear-drive variants, even tread wear is key to keeping range and handling consistent. A small investment in tyre maintenance saves money in the long haul.
The Kia EV6 Air may be the most accessible trim in the lineup, but it's anything but basic. With the right tyre setup, you get a refined, efficient, and road-trip-ready electric crossover that's equally at home on city streets or wide open highways.
Tyres aren't just rubber—they're your connection to the road. And with the EV6 Air, matching your vehicle with the right performance-rated, EV-optimized tyres means you're getting the full experience this futuristic ride was designed for. Smart, sporty, and future-proof—this one's ready for whatever's next.
