Overview
The GT-Line RWD is the sweet spot in the EV6 lineup by range: the full GT-Line specification package combined with the single rear motor configuration that returns 582km WLTP — the longest range of any EV6 variant. The AWD GT-Line above it trades 27km of WLTP range for dual-motor performance and all-surface traction. For buyers who prioritise distance over acceleration, the GT-Line RWD is the optimum.
The GT-Line specification over the Air adds ventilated front seats, a more complete technology suite, sportier exterior elements, and the premium audio system that makes the EV6’s cabin significantly more refined for daily driving.

Performance, Range, and Charging
225kW and 350Nm from the rear motor — upgraded from the Air’s 168kW. 0-100 km/h in approximately 5.2 seconds. This is a meaningful improvement over the Air in real-world driving: highway overtaking is decisive, freeway merging is effortless.
582km WLTP translates to 470-510km at 110 km/h with climate control. 240kW DC — 10-80% in approximately 18 minutes. V2L 3.6kW standard.
Interior and Specification
GT-Line adds over Air: ventilated front seats, Meridian premium audio, panoramic sunroof, GT-Line exterior with larger alloys and sportier bumper styling, enhanced interior materials. The cabin improvement is substantive — this is the specification where the EV6 stops feeling like a capable transport device and starts feeling like a premium vehicle.
Physical climate controls, 12-inch curved dual display, Highway Driving Assist, full active safety suite.
Verdict
The EV6 GT-Line RWD is the variant that best balances everything the EV6 offers: the longest range in the range, the full specification, 800V charging speed, and the driving character that made the EV6 an award-winning car. For buyers prioritising range over AWD performance, it is the recommendation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the GT-Line RWD or GT-Line AWD the better choice?
GT-Line RWD: 582km WLTP, 5.2s 0-100, single rear motor. GT-Line AWD: 555km WLTP, 5.1s 0-100, dual-motor AWD. The range difference is 27km — negligible. The performance difference is 0.1 seconds — also negligible. The meaningful difference is traction: AWD handles rain and gravel more confidently. For buyers in consistently wet climates or those who tow frequently, AWD is worth the $7,000 premium and 27km range trade.
