Kia EV6 named 2022 Car of the Year in Europe.

The Kia EV6 was crowned this year’s winner in a ceremony at the Palexpo exhibition centre in Geneva, Switzerland, which would typically now be hosting the Geneva International Motor Show but for its cancellation for the third year running.

The EV6 – the first Kia to win the award, and the third pure battery-electric car to do so – scored 279 points as it saw off challenges from six other shortlisted cars in a closely fought competition.

Runner-up was the Renault Megane E-Tech Electric, with 265 points, while the Kia’s close relation, the Hyundai Ioniq 5, finished in third, with 261 points.
