   Does anyone know whether the 20" wheels on the GT would reduce range compared to the standard 19" wheels? Kia's estimate of typical range is 274 miles and the window sticker for the car I just drove indicates that range, even with the listed 20" wheels.

   Yes. It's commonly accepted that smaller wheels always provide greater EV range.

   The 20-inch wheels offer 9 fewer miles than 19-inch wheels in AWD version.
   Lots of range figures on this InsideEVs post. https://insideevs.com/news/565543/kia-ev6-comparison-battery-range/
