The Modern And Cutting-Edge Kia EV6, Crowned With The Wards 10 Best Interiors & UX Award
![]()
Continuing to earn accolades within months of its launch, the brand’s first dedicated battery-electric vehicle, the 2022 Kia EV6, titled with Wards 10 Best Interiors & UX award.
Kia America’s chief operating officer and executive vice president, Steven Center remarked, “We are honoured to receive this award for the EV6, which represents an important step toward Kia’s transformative ‘Plan S’ global electrification strategy. The EV6’s modern, bold design elements and interior solutions thoughtfully integrated with intuitive technology reinforce Kia’s future-forward vision for electric vehicles.”

In order to determine the winners, the team at Wards evaluates new or heavily redesigned vehicle interiors and user-experience technology.
Specifically, the judging includes design and aesthetics, comfort, materials, fit-and-finish, connectivity and infotainment, displays and controls, advanced driver assist systems and value.

WardsAuto’s editor and judge, Drew Winter, commented, “The Kia EV6 is a solid overall value, with a stylish and sporty interior, and highly innovative morphing controls that save space and reduce clutter. That, plus its very spacious, comfortable cabin and top-notch materials, put the EV6 firmly on our 2022 Wards 10 Best Interiors & UX list.”
Overall, more than 10,000 EV6 models have been sold throughout the U.S. to date, contributing to the 132 percent growth in sales of Kia’s EVs over the previous May record set in 2021.

That, together with the 5 percent increase over the all-time monthly sales record for the vehicle category set in March of 2022.
