Awesome car with a quiet/refined ride

We got our Ev6 (GT-Line RWD) a few month ago, we love the car. Our number 1 requirement was for a smooth ride (after owning a Bolt, a nice but rough car and high NVH on freeway). The number one requirement was for a a refined suspension and low NVH. We tried pretty much every electric car (Model S, Y, Mach-E, ID4) and every Lexus (as a reference). We found the EV6 to be top of the line so I would not agree with "But there are better options out there if you're after a cushy ride or lots of cargo space." I found that driving the EV6 is pleasant and great damping (driving over potholes is a non event). The other 2 cars that I tested which would improve on the Ev6 is the Model S (air suspension is like velvet, sharp steering/handling) and Lexus ES (Surprisingly as its a beefed up Toyota! but handling is better on EV6). My recommendation is to try many cars back to back and make your own opinion.

I purchased a 2023 GT-Line in October. I fell in love with the Matte Gray finish and the driving capability of the car. However, within the first few weeks I started to notice several annoying flaws. I actually traded my car in after three months for a Genesis EV70. The Kia just failed at being refined enough for a $50k+ car. Here are my Pros and Cons. Pros: *Amazing car to drive - suburb acceleration and handling *Controls - easy acccess to heated seats and steering wheel controls *KIA APP - good functionality of Kia APP for remote starting car and other features *Intuititive controls *I-Pedal - one pedal driving is amazing Cons *I HATE the door handles - There are automated by motion, but do not know whether you're coming or going. If the car is unlocked and you approach it, then it may lock! Really annoying. *Cold Air on the Floor - My feet were always cold in the car. It turns out the open center counsel was not sealed well and cold air was getting into the car. I had to run the temp over 76 to keep my feet warm. *Vibrations and rattling - with items in the cup holders *Uncomfortable seats - the seats are OK, but a little hard for my taste. Kia made a great electric car with the EV6, but should have finished the car off with a touch more quality, especially at the price point. The care is SO close to being great.

Great car, too much nanny!

We've had ours for 500 miles now (Jan 24), local journeys, nothing beyond 120 mi. We spent about $1300 on a charger box plus a long 240V-50A line for that from the house. NOTE: we would *never* have an EV (this or any other) as our only car. When we do road trips--not so often--they're usually at least 800 miles each way: grandkids, other family, etc. So we're not really interested in range at all: the gas-propelled car will take care of that. Cost. On Long Island, electric power is about 22c/kWh: expensive, and just about twice the price of the energy content of gasoline (1 gal = 33 kWH.) So even when the car is routinely managing 3 mi/kWh (100 mpge), it's really not much cheaper than a really efficient little Honda. That is of course before reduced maintenance cost, etc. We'll see... We looked carefully at the new plug-in Prius Prime, which is quite something, and as a hybrid will never give you range anxiety. However, its plug-in range is pretty puny: if it were >50 miles, that would be really useful. And of course the performance (oomph) is nothing compared with the EV6. It's also smaller. The EV6 manual and the nannying. The manuals are impossible, more than 500 pages. If you find what you're looking for, randomly, use a post-it immediately, because you'll never find it again in the index. What's that to do with nannies? Well, when the car arrives it comes with the hitchhiker's guide to everything installed in the EV galazy. No mention of the real answer, 42 (not in the manual index), but the default setup is all about taking almost complete control from the driver, assisted this, assisted that, even assisted steering (which was really creepy), etc, etc. It took 2-3 hours to work out how to turn most of it off. We are both experienced drivers, after all, and we don't use phones in the car. Perhaps we're the wrong target audience? (FYI, we--just two of us-have two other cars, a 2017 Jaguar XE for much longer trips, and a 1969 MGC, the latter of course with a stick shift on the floor...oh, goodness, what is that?!) So to the quotidian details. 1) The stupid flat door handles, copied--for no reason--from Tesla. They freeze up very easily, just like Tesla's do. The manual--quite hilariously--gives instructions about exactly where to thump the door panel around the handle to try and free it. It doesn't work: use a hair dryer (which can be plugged into the wonderful 120V outlet in the car). [Note added later by my wife: if you can't unlock the car, you can't connect a hair dryer!] 2) The very poor rear visibility, not at all helped by the tailgate window being so dark. You're going to need that backup camera, baby: make sure to wipe it clean, daily. 3) The long string of buttons (swappable between climate controls and infotainment) are much too small, and many button hits will turn on AC or defrost by mistake, while you're driving. Talk about distraction. 4) The awful garbage-truck reverse noise, which--get this--is broadcast at high volume from the *front* of the car. Duh?! Actually we both love the car, despite (or having managed to turn off) many of the nannyish stupidities. 1) The two 120V/15A outlets, couple to a 77-kWh battery, mean that we can pension off our 2.5 kW gas generator in case a hurricane comes in. 2) Android auto works fine (USB cable only). 3) The stereo is OK (Meridian, but nothing special). 4) Note also that, while many reviews say it doesn't have much room...it's a *car*, not a monster American SUV that you climb into. If you need that, this ain't it. 5) Rear seat space is more than ample, and even with the rear seats up the trunk is pretty large; with the seats down, it's huge. Do reviewers all have 6 kids, or what? Driving? With the battery on the floor, it handles very very well. I haven't really tried the real twisties yet, but I'm already sure that this (the AWD version) is a car that will go just where you point it, even in rain and slush and snow. Forget the GT: this is all you need. BTW, we bought our Wind AWD just before the Light dual-motor AWD was announced; go for it. Time to hang up the ranting pen... Bye!

This is my first EV and I wasn’t sure what the driving experience would be like. I got the GT-line model. Not only is this car packed with tech (and cool tech that’s actually usable), but it’s also a blast to drive. Even in normal driving mode it can pin you to your seat if you step on the gas, and in sport mode…well, let’s just say I’ve surprised a few teens at traffic lights who pulled up next to me thinking they could beat me off the line in their souped up hatchbacks. LOL! Smooth and comfortable ride, with a roomy cabin for both passengers and cargo. I play in two rock bands and all of my gear (instruments, amps, cables, stands, you name it) fits in the back with the back seats folded down…with room to spare. My dog also likes to ride in the back, though she’s almost a tad too tall unless she’s up against the back seats in the cargo area. This car fast charges way faster than my friend’s Tesla, and gets pretty good range as well. We got a home charger installed, which makes it super convenient and easy to always remain charged and ready to go. Love the color as well - I have the Yacht Blue and it’s gorgeous! I had a delivery driver tell me that it was the most beautiful Kia he’s ever seen. I can’t say how it does in snow because it’s still summer time, but I suspect with AWD and snow mode it will do fairly well. All in all I’m really pleased that I found this car - it hadn’t even been on my radar until I went to a Kia dealership to look at a Telluride and walked by an EV6 on the lot. Once I saw it, I had to know more. I’m really surprised I don’t see more of these on the road - to me they look far more sporty than Teslas, and they have the same, if not better, tech and charging capabilities. But then again, I kind of like being the unique one in town. People definitely turn and look when this car goes by!

I bought the EV6 in May of 23. I started having ac issues. The replaced all the components after several issues and sitting in the shop for over a month. I also started having issues with drive to reverse but that could not be " duplicated". I requested buyback. Kia corporate, BBB, Attorney General have all have been contacted. They could not get responses from the company. This has to be the worst service, communication etc. I do not recommend KIA or the EV6 unless you want issues and horrible communication from corporate.
