Been overseas for a while, so have not been active here. Good to see I am not the only person who likes the EV6.
Shindig:
edge:
Earth accelerates same as GT-Line 🙂- 5.2 to 100k. Some key additions in the GT-Line (there are a few others) are improved headlights, Meridian sound system, "active sound design", heat pump, mood lighting (!) and ventilated front seats. I made a list and figured we could do without all of those for $12k extra :-) Others, of course, may have a different opinion!
I'm with you, those updates aren't worth the 12k.
Confusion likely would have been Between the EV6 GT (Not yet available in NZ, 0-100 in about 3.5sec), and the EV6 GT-Line. (current top trim, 0-100 in the 5.3sec mentioned). Don't know why car brands name their trim levels so similar.
On Higher trims a general rule, auto makers run higher margins on high trim's, so they typically represent less value, But of course, if you simply must have one of the features only offered on the GT-line, that is your only option. Also it is common for top trims weigh more (with the same GVM), meaning less payload and performance than the versions with the same drive train, and often come with bigger wheels & lower profile tires (Often more weight, more drag, less ride comfort, more damage prone, and more expensive to replace tires)
On the GT-Line Price jump above the earth is significant as you say, But do note it is a very different visual package. Personally as look as the looks are acceptable I'm not to fussed, but some people would upgrade for this reason alone. Didn't pay to much attention between the air and GT-line in the showroom (Pretty much only interested in this car as the Air RWD LR is within the rebate price cap), but here is an article that goes over the Korean spec appearance in detail:
Note the different lower bumper, and body colored wheel arches on the GT line.
In terms of pure spec, I is quite different but again, I could not justify the price of anything that is above the Rebate price cap, so was only looking at Air. Will list the stuff covered already first:
