EV6 is also the first of Kia's next-generation BEVs to be developed under a new design philosophy that embodies Kia's shifting focus towards electrification.

"EV6 is the embodiment of both our brand purpose, 'Movement that inspires', and our new design philosophy. It has been designed to inspire every journey by offering an instinctive and natural experience that improves the daily lives of our customers, and provide user ownership that is simple, intuitive and integrated," said Karim Habib, Senior Vice President and Head of Kia Global Design Center. "Our aim is to design the physical experience of our brand and to create bold, original and inventive electric vehicles."

Kia's new naming strategy for upcoming dedicated BEVs
As part of the company's brand transition, Kia's new dedicated battery electric vehicles will be named according to a new naming strategy. The new approach brings simplicity and consistency to Kia's EV nomenclature across all global markets.

All of Kia's new dedicated BEVs will start with the prefix 'EV' which makes it easy for consumers to understand which of Kia's products are fully electric. This is followed by a number which corresponds to the car's position in the line-up.

Designed and engineered to embody Kia's new brand slogan, 'Movement that inspires', EV6 will make its world premiere during the first quarter of 2021.

Worthship: Do Not Conform to the Age

Worthship is the older English word for worship, and it means to ascribe worth. Bishop Robert Barron preached Romans 12 on 30 August. This essay follows the text into the prison letters, and puts two questions to a graph: do the four readings of that Sunday agree, and was Paul free or in chains when he wrote about despair?

The Truth in All Its Ugliness Must Survive

A majority vote does not determine the truth. Consensus is a mood, gossip is a sport, and a model will write the pretty version for free. Why the ugly number has to survive, why a record beats a dashboard, and what KXCO was built to keep standing when the room changes its mind.

Don't Be the Best, Be the Only: Winning in an AI World

AI is repricing competence downward. What it cannot reproduce is a life. The case for remaining non-fungible, why friction still produces the best ideas, and what it means to build AI systems that keep the human intellect in them.
