You need powerful thermal management for high and reproducible output. In the e-tron GT, there are two coolant circuits for the technical components operating on different temperature levels. The cooler one controls the temperature of the high-voltage battery and the warmer one serves the electric motors and power electronics. Plus, there’s a cold circuit and a heating circuit for the interior, which I suppose your race car doesn’t have. Prediction is important in our case, too, albeit on a different level. We use a special functional feature to ensure that the driver can charge the battery with utmost capacity during a trip. When the car travels a longer distance with active navigation, the e-tron route planner issues suggestions of where to charge the battery. About half an hour before the car arrives at the selected charging station, the thermal management system starts adjusting the temperature of the battery to precisely match its state of charge and the charging station’s capacity.

The EV6 was designed according to the new "Opposites United" design philosophy. She is inspired by the opposites that can be found in nature and in being human. The focus of the design philosophy is a new visual identity that evokes positive forces and natural energy with contrasting combinations of sharply drawn style elements and plastic forms. The GT version of the EV6 was designed to bring something out of the ordinary to the crossover class. It offers a striking, impressive look with high-tech elements and a level of performance that is unprecedented in previous Kia electric vehicles. At the front of the vehicle, the typical Kia “tiger face” has been further developed for the digital era. Part of the new “digital tiger face” is the elegant, modern daytime running light with a dynamic, “sequential” light pattern. Underneath there is a flat air inlet, which visually underlines the width of the front of the vehicle and also enhances the high-tech look.
The Paseo del Born, one of Barcelona’s most popular tourist areas, gets transformed into a film set, with cameras and spotlights ready to turn a terrace into the backdrop for a meeting between CUPRA President Wayne Griffiths and actor and CUPRA ambassador Daniel Brühl. This is how the world presentation of the brand’s first 100% electric model begins, in a production with motion picture overtones designed to inspire from Barcelona.
