Kia America reports that in June its car sales in the US decreased by almost 5% year-over-year to 65,142. The result after six months of the year is also weaker than a year ago: 333,340 (down 12%).
On the positive side, Kia electrified car sales (HEVs, PHEVs, and BEVs) are improving this year.
Deliveries of the all-electric Kia EV6 in June amounted to 2,567, which is 3.9% of the total Kia volume. That's one of the best monthly results so far. During the second quarter of this year, a total of 7,287 Kia EV6 were delivered.

After five months on the market, the Kia EV6 has reached a cumulative sales total of 12,568. At such a rate, 25,000-30,000 units per year should be possible.
Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not report sales of other plug-in models, as they are counted together with conventional or non-rechargeable hybrid versions.
Detailed results:
The Kia EV6 is available in several versions and trim levels. At the end of the year, the company intends to launch a sporty GT version (above the GT-Line).
