The sportier EV6 GT-Line can be specified with either the 226bhp rear-wheel drive (£43,895) or a dual-motor, four-wheel drive 321bhp powertrain (£47,395). The latter set-up generates 605Nm of torque and will accelerate from 0-62mph in 5.2 seconds. due to the extra performance, claimed range drops to 314 miles according to WLTP testing.
