This isn't an SUV in my opinion, it is too low to the ground. This looks more love a 4 door hatchback.

@MilesPerHr Год назад

Agreed

@gugu-vl2zs Год назад

Agreed just can't wait for EV to be officially legalized in Africa

@eddstarr2185 Год назад

Betcha KIA corporate says one EV6 is just like another EV6, available power makes no difference. It's the marketing department that pushed for the "GT" name despite knowing that no visual distinctions exist between GT and non-GT. All KIA's cost cutting tricks were used to keep the sticker price from going even higher! Thank you, Miles, for braving the endless winter storm weather to give us all a POV Drive Review - umbrella not included.

@MilesPerHr Год назад

Interesting! I wouldn’t be surprised if at least some of that was true. I’m glad this GT model exists 😊

That's nuts in the rain! I hope the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4's I am putting on mine hook up as well.

@NikSargent Год назад

Really enjoyed your review and love this car. It feels like Kia consciously decided driver engagement was important. While other cars are putting displays in the centre and aiming to put the driver out of a job, so to speak, I love the fact they put flappy paddles on this to control the regen - that creates driver engagement if you want to have fun. What range could be squeezed out of it in eco mode? That’s the big question. A TV show here in the U.K. seemed to imply you could get 250 miles with careful eco driving.

@MilesPerHr Год назад

Well said - this felt like much more than an "A to B" vehicle. However, I would be shocked if you could eek 250 miles out of the GT, even with ultra-conservative driving. Driving fun was clearly the focus over efficiency

@AkiraSieghart 10 месяцев назад

Obviously, this is super late in regards to when you left this comment, but I've been DD'ing my 2023 EV6 GT for a few months now and 250 miles on a single charge is absolutely possible if you can stick to under 75 MPH and leave the regen breaking in level 2 or auto.

@shalamanrogers6892 Год назад

Now this is a nice Kia

@NeonDreams7 Год назад

What a fun review! Thanks for keeping it interesting!

@UnobtaniumsQuickReviews Год назад

Actual range tested by C&D for the EV6 GT at 75mph was 190mi. For the MYP, 230mi. The EV6 GT comes very very close to hitting EPA range. The Tesla, way far from it.

@sforry9332 Год назад

My actual range on my EV6GT is around 230 miles in mixed driving. I am using the AC and making an effort to drive economically. I bought this car to both daily and rip on. It serves my purposes perfectly.

@erickirshner2810 Год назад

To think it grips in rain even with summer tires are a step away from slicks is impressive.

@mrpogi23 Год назад

so even on eco, range still takes a hit.. i was hoping it would be like the regular AWD version unless you go GT mode. it will be probably like 180 mi if u keep using GT. Best I can do for 100% on AWD with this CA rainy cold weather was still 270. 290 during summer.

@NikSargent Год назад

Honestly it seems impossible to get a straight picture on this. Like you, I expected eco mode to have much bigger range. And indeed the car was recently reviewed in the U.K. by the show Fifth Gear (1000 mile trip across Norway) and they seemed to suggest it was getting nearer 250. With I could get a straight answer.

@bigdi77 Год назад

Change the rims to 19s I bet 230 is easy to get in normal mode. I am getting 290 right now in gt line in eco mode winter driving back roads and light highway

@fp5495 Год назад

The quality of a lot of the interior materials is still too low for any car at this price. There has to be a point where the price needs to visually be justified, not just with what's going on underneath.

@pofrof4910 Год назад

I had see along years, better interior materials ended with bad shape and noises, compared with 'suposed' low quality materials, which were better fitted ans build. This is a fact that many people doens't seem to aknowlegde. Wonder why.

@bhbae1 Год назад

No not really

@vonnbarretto1221 9 месяцев назад

if it is used incorrectly and when the battery is charged, the car can explode because of the battery, it is like a bomb when it explodes, it needs to be studied carefully, the work of electric is not perfect yet

@brickoutside Год назад

This would make an awesome daily driver but nothing can replace a 6 speed gearbox as a fun car.

@TimSmith-db1iu 6 месяцев назад

I disagree. I've had manual transmissions my whole life, including my last car a 2019 5.0 manual. The Kia destroys it. It's more subtle, but I dont need to be loud to have fun. I'm not a Harley Davidson kinda guy.

@volcalstone 6 месяцев назад

Having a manual is just more engaging if anything. You get more control of your vechicle but that's bout it. My first car was a manual. To me having fun is about how your car handles on the curves and straightaways. If it doesn't have an LSD for example or some sort of torque vectoring AWD then I ain't trying to take it on the curvy back roads.

@canadianaviator Год назад

0:30 the GT has lots of design changes from the regular model tho 😢

@MilesPerHr Год назад

Not really. Green calipers, different wheels, and a restyled diffuser portion. That's it

@speksih Год назад

@@MilesPerHr front lower bumper corners are different, also the front grills are different.

@speksih Год назад

@@MilesPerHr Also the rear wing over the rear window has more downforce generated with subtle changes.

@volcalstone 6 месяцев назад

Back button markers as well. Subtle changes visually. I do wish it was more aggressive looking but at the same time I don't want it to be over styled like the 5N. That stands out way too much for my needs. This is a killer sleeper imo.

@Superman-xr1oh Год назад

I still don’t understand why they don’t just put solar panels on electric cars lol well, no logical understanding anyways. Just greed

@jayhay3746 Год назад

Because you'd need 14 solar panels and an inverter to make 7kw charger. A standard 400w in peak sunshine would take a month to charge the car assuming 12hrs per day.
