From pictures/videos I didn't think much of the EV6 rear taillights at all, but I was blown away at how nice it looked in person. So nice I almost rear ended the EV6.

IMO, the EV6 is by far the best looking of the current batch of electric CUVs (although I do think the Mach-E looks much better than it gets credit for). I saw an Ioniq 5 in person at the store the other day, and while it's certainly striking, there's something unsettling about how much bigger it is than it looks in photos. The proportions of an old Golf, but at the size of an SUV, feels a bit odd. But the EV6 is more of a unique shape, and although I have yet to see one in person, I think it's a very pretty car even with how large it is. If I could afford any of them, I'd buy an EV6 in a heartbeat.

I completely agree on the Ionic 5 front. Passed by one in the wild going the opposite way and I was just kinda bummed. Tremendous design, but at that size it just came off as so much more average than I was hoping

I think I still prefer the Ioniq 5. I dig the classic shape and the retro looking lights. Plus the interior seems more usable and a bit roomier feeling. Both are the only ev’s I would actually pay money for.

James’ transitions to topics in this review were absolutely fantastic. Smooth and felt well written. “Thomas, give us some production value!” Certainly adds, but the cohesion of having good B roll and solid dialogue? Love the direction you guys take these reviews.

I love what Kia is becoming, this is a bit out of my price range but the facelift E Niro that’s aboht to come out looks pretty sick so I might get one of them

There are a few things that haven't been mentioned here. I test drove one today, and the sales rep had virtually no clue about the vehicle's features. He mentioned they had done a "training session", but his inability to answer questions I already knew the answer to brought me back to this: the KIA dealer network and facilities are not up to selling a $55K electric vehicle. For one, my local dealer is in a particularly seedy area of my city, and seemed more appropriately geared to those people to buying a Kia Soul than this very expensive crossover. The facilities were old, dirty, dated, and decidedly "low-rent", which didn't inspire confidence. It's no wonder they have EV6's sitting on the lot after several weeks. Their regular clientele can't afford this car, or the Stinger GT's sitting on the showroom floor. As for the test drive, the EV6 was fine and reasonably built for the price. It did not feel particularly roomy inside compared to the Ioniq 5 I drove a week ago. The interior seemed cramped and dark, given the large size of the exterior...not terribly impressive for a $56K vehicle. Oh, wait. I mean a $62K vehicle with the $4K dealer "market price adjustment" and mandatory $2K "charging package" which seemed to include the 110V Level one charger that is supposed to come with the car, and a "220V Level 2 charger--I think" that the sales rep couldn't really explain or justify. Really just more dealer markup. I left feeling that I could buy a fully loaded Polestar 2 for the same price, with no "market price adjustment" and a much better level of build quality and performance. The problem here isn't the cars--it's the buying/owner experience and dealer network that falls short at the price.

Good job on the solo review ;) Both the Ioniq 5 and this EV6 look fantastic. It's about time there was a shakeup in the way cars look on the road, and these crazy new designs take advantage of the freed up space at the front of the car.

Between this and the Ioniq 5, I prefer the styling of the EV6, both inside and out. But the differences in features that you pointed out between the two, especially in the back seats, strongly favor the Ioniq 5. Right now I think that I would choose function over form, and go with the Ioniq 5.

12:36 The headrests do adjust. I believe you need to pull on them and then they'll eventually retract all the back automatically then you can pull them forward again to the position that you want them in.

Buyer Beware We bought the EV6 Wind RWD on April 2, 2022at Ball KIA San Diego. We love the way it looks, the way it drives, the modes and the room. We purchased it specifically because of the California CAV Carpool status and the 310 mile range. When I commuted to my work destination 134 miles away, the next day, on a 100% full charge; I had 13% battery and only 24 miles to go after I arrived to my final destination. I didn't drive extreme or in a hilly areas. Nothing different than the terrain and freeway speeds of Orange County where the KIA Corporate HDQ are located. I didn't have the heater or ac on anything more than normal. Needless to say I was peeved. I had to recharge in Compton and I'm glad my wife didn't have to do this. So here I am 3 weeks later, a new car that will not charge more than 215 est miles. The Mi/kwh is 2.3-3.4. KIA wont help, they keep giving me the runaround and telling me that the 310mile per charge is only an estimate. Even though the brochure says 310* plus/minus 10... KIA headquarters says 167 -310 est range. KIA wont help us, we have to do all of this investigation on our own, The Service managers, District Manager and Regional manager have not returned any of our calls, emails. We have been to 2 service centers and they are telling us that this 215 mile range is standard and correct for their long range Wind model (the 310 mile model) My wife and I believe that KIA has placed the EV6 Light Model Battery in the Wind Model Frame.

I was looking at countless of videos of roadtrips. And there’s plenty of charging stations but they both charge about the same time And also the Tesla ! They’re all the same. Just by a miles of range or a few extra minutes of charging times. So now I don’t know what I want. But I’m keep looking at videos aha

Every Intro is and will always be GOATED 🐐😂

If my local Kia dealer didn't mark it up 10K I would have thought about getting it as soon as the IL rebate starts July 1, but now I will wait an see for a year or two... great vid, I LOL'd several times!!

I'd still go for the Ioniq 5. The EV6 is a good looking CUV and a good looking electric, but the Ioniq is so unique and individual in its design language for a car of any type, and in my opinion that's something that's been sorely lacking in car design outside of super/hyper cars for decades now.

Totally agree! This is why I wanted the IONIQ 5 over the EV6 as well. Interestingly enough, after seeing the EV6 in person I was floored and took it home (I saw and test drove the IONIQ 5 that we pre-ordered prior to the EV6)

As usual, the ideal would be to combine Hyundai interior with KIA exterior 😂

I actually kind of like the kia interior.

I test drove one recently and its definitely a head turner

I knew I saw y’all in Cali! I’m part of D11 and saw people on both the west and the east testing this car!

Hard choice. I like light interiors but don't love the white bezels in the Ioniq 5. But that's the only thing I don't like. I like the EV6s dash look and maybe the somewhat firmer feel it has would appeal to me. But the Ioniq seems to have more room in it. They both seem superb and premium.

It was a little easier for me since I just fell in love with the exterior of the Ioniq 5 and nothing in the interior bothered me. It's the first car I've owned that I enjoy cleaning. That said, you definitely want to test drive them both first and your heart go with whichever you favor in the moment more.

0-60@ 5 seconds really is quick enough,. I'm older now, have slower reactions, but the lack of discipline to not floor it occasionally. I'd just end up in a video running over something if any quicker.

Man I’m seeing these new Kia’s all over town and I must say, SWEET!!!

I remember going for a ride in that vehicle at the Philadelphia Auto Show. I rode it on the E-track.

The drivetrains in the ioniq 5 and EV6 are not the same, that's why their numbers are slightly different. Out of comparable tests, the EV6 has shown to be slightly more efficient.

re: "The drivetrains in the ioniq 5 and EV6 are not the same" if not the same then the burden is on you tell us how they DIFFER (ps: be exact).

@@phillyphil1513 just go compare the spec sheets on the official sites. Hyundai states that the long range is a 73kwh battery and Kia states a 77.4kwh battery. The GT line ev6 also has 325hp while the ioniq5 has 225hp in awd form. There seems to be a lot of lazy reporting on their numbers and efficiency attributed to the shapes.

The GT line ev6 also has 325hp while the ioniq5 has 225hp in awd form." ok i see what the problem is, HERE IN THE STATES (things are kept simple) cause we get the exact same 77.4Kwh, 320hp, 446tq, AWD setup in the Ioniq 5 that the EV6 gets (i have the picture i took of window stickers from both an SE trim IO5 and a GT-L trim EV6 on my phone). re: "while the ioniq5 has 225hp in awd form." check again that it's not just a RWD model, cause the rear motor (again for us here in "Murica) BY ITSELF has 225 hp, with the addition of the front motor ADDING another 95hp to the equation (225+95=320). it's said the SMALLER 58Kwh battery model will be coming to us later.

I saw three of these on the road in less than 15 minutes yesterday. They seem to be selling well.

I asked Kia and they said if you preorder now, deliveries are expected in Q1 2023 in Canada.
