Looking to confirm if every trim in Europe comes with these back turn signals. If anyone knows, I’d really appreciate it .
Yes, all of them have them. The GT-Line and GT models have the slide animation on the blinkers, while the basic model only has a regular blinking effect.

Thanks for the info .

I thought only newer models had the slide animation. Mine isn’t a GT-Line or GT, but it still has the animation.
@Dallas
In Germany, the slide animation was part of a package, probably P1.

I think I have most of the GT-Line features on my AWD, except the front bumper and the bigger rims.
@Dallas
You could get all the features of the GT-Line, even with RWD or AWD, if you chose the larger battery, heat pump, and packages P1-P6. I have one with the 20-inch rims.

We don’t have packages P1-P6 here. We had RWD, AWD, and then what they called ‘performance’ and ‘upgrade.’ I got a special dealer edition with all the add-ons except the speaker system. But that’s okay since I plan on installing a different sound system.
@Dallas
I guess Kia offers different configurations depending on the country. What I mentioned was what was available in Germany.

In my country, only the GT-Line and GT models had the slide animation. The basic models (both RWD and AWD) with the comfort pack didn’t have it as an upgrade. So, it depends on the country.
I’m from the U.S. and I would love to have this as a mod…

You can do it. You just need to import the lights, which cost about $800. Check this link for more details: Can lower turn signals be added to US spec EV6? | Kia EV Forum
Do all EU/UK cars have a separate orange light for turn signals?

Sadly, here in North America, the brake lights double as the turn signal. We don’t get the cool or safer taillights and headlights like in other regions.
@Axel
I think the issue is that the separate turn lights didn’t meet U.S. size requirements, so Kia made the brake lights blink and swapped for a solid trim where the light would go. I saw a video of someone adding animated turn lights to their U.S. model. You might find it in this forum somewhere, from about a year ago.
@Axel
It’s strange how other Asian cars in the U.S. still have amber turn signals, even some KIAs. But with the EV6, they made it special with no amber DRLs or blinkers.

In the U.S., they allow blinking red rear lights instead of separate yellow blinkers.
I have an earth spec in Ireland, and it has the swooping indicator animations. It’s odd though, it has almost all the GT-Line features except for the sound system and seats.
