Kia India is looking to bring in more EV6 units into the country in order to cater to the pending bookings, the automaker said on Thursday.

This number is already twice the initially planned 100 units for the entire year, the South Korean automaker said in a statement.

"At the launch of EV6, amid the very positive response received, we had promised our customers to bring in more units of the EV6, over and above the initially allotted 100 units for 2022.
Going forward, our focus will be on completing the deliveries of all the existing and new bookings at the earliest," Kia India Chief Sales Officer Myung-sik Sohn stated.
