I have an EV6 GT. It is not just ridiculously fast. It is an awesome daily driver. The suspension is very comfortable, especially considering the level of performance. The bucket sits are manual but again, I find them to be very comfortable as well. The climate control system is confusing and the controls for it are poorly conceived but they work and one ultimately gets used to them. My favorite feature of the car is the "iPedal" mode, Kia’s one pedal driving mode. This mode, unique to electric cars, allows one to drastically slow down the vehicle by simply lifting one’s foot off the accelerator. Doing so, equates to putting your foot on the brakes, except the brakes are not used at all. The energy used to slow down the vehicle is instead sent to the battery, in effect re-charging the battery as one drives. This not only dramatically extends the lifespan of rotors and pads, especially in busy, stop and go traffic. It makes the act of driving a lot more comfortable as a single foot on a single pedal now offers the kind of control a gasoline car driver can only dream of. It does take some getting used to but once you get the hang of it, you don’t ever want to be without it, except for extended highway driving. The "iPedal" feature can of course be turned on or off at the touch of a button on the steering wheel.

Cool drag race :). Could the Kia only be running around 500hp in this race? Did you put the Battery Optimizer on? It's on the right screen where the navigation is (just scroll up and down to find it, only works over 68% SOC) and it can give 50-80 more horsepower, actually the fully 585hp (577bhp). It will warm the battery up to around 30c (86f), but it take 10-30min depends on the temperature. Most people doesn't know about it. I own a Kia EV6 GT in Norway. The Challenger would cost about 3 times the price of a EV6 GT in Norway because of insane taxes :(. Here in Europe you also get stickier tires, Michelin Pilot Sport 4S :). It hurts range, but so nice for spirited driving. We have a lot of fast chargers in Norway so range isn't a issue.

This vs CT5V Blackwing would be interesting. 2 completely different types of 4 door family cars that can actually perform in real world.

You need to roll the cats out to about 12-14mph before you stab the gas. On perilli’s though you’re honestly not doing anything wrong it’s impossible to hook them.

I've been saying the same thing since the Hellcat initially came out, waste of power for real life driving , don't even attempt to drive it in wet or cold weather !

When it came time for me to get a new car last year I decided I was going to get an EV. I went to the Hyundai lot and tried an Ioniq 5 but I wasn't sold so before buying it I went to the Kia lot and the salesman was like "we're going to test drive the GT, but I get to take it out first because you'll kill us if you dont know what to expect." and he was absolutely right. All I could do was laugh as soon as he mashed the gas and gravity shifted. I was so nervous to actually mash it on a city road but the car is still super easy to drive and the traction control is very much there. What a beautiful thing. I almost went with the GT, but the seats in the GT-Line are far more comfortable and you get an additional ~20% range while saving $15K. The GT-Line is still plenty fast to shock anyone that rides with me without knowing what it can do before hand. I absolutely love the car and wouldnt trade it for anything.

Wow didnt expect that. The days of muscle dragsters are is coming to an end

By default if it’s hot out supercharged cars are down on power, not sure where they’re shooting at but it seems like it’s in the middle of the desert during the middle of the day “hottest” time. EV’s on the other hand love hot weather. Those 2 factors affected this a lot I’m sure. Also the fact that from the factory a lot of the times these hellcats and other high HP cars get crappy all seasons or something like a pirelli which are absolutely useless in terms of grip instead of something stickier like a Toyo R888R which would be a lot better for getting traction, I’m sure the Ghost would’ve fared a lot better with a proper tire. Still blows my mind that manufactures will happily sell a 800hp car and not put on proper tires for it. I run Toyo R888’s on a car with almost half the HP and it’s helped me tremendously. Everyone Ik with high HP cars runs Toyo’s or something similar in compound to properly grip.

I don't hate on EVs and I'm a huge hater of the HellCrap! However, the HellCrap can do that all day long from a full tank of gas all the way down to running it dry. The EV6 is going to start to conserve juice at some point and that will no longer be repeatable. Both have their places but racing against one another isn't that place.

It's not really a surprise. The Black Ghost is just a special edition, last call Hellcat/Demon/Redeye variant. Did I miss one? These cars are high-powered boat anchors and are absolutely useless on street tires. Although the Black Ghost sounds awesome. However, the biggest insult to injury is spending $100k+ dealer mark-up, and getting its @$$ handed to by a $62k KIA!!! What makes matters even worse is that you can get a $7500 rebate check from Kia, so that's now $55k. Now that's arguably half the money. Sorry Dodge, I hope the e Muscled Challenger is better.

Honestly, I'm not surprised. I had a 2016 Mustang GT (UK spec, so the tech and sport kits were standard equipment) and my current car, a dual motor EV6, easily out paces it despite being exactly 100hp down and 200kg heavier (321hp vs 421hp and 1800kg vs 2000kg). There's no transmission, you don't have to wait for a cam profile to change, you don't have to wait for a supercharger to spin up, the motors in an EV aren't driving any other equipment except the wheels through a reduction gear (basically direct drive). The EV6 GT has a TERRIFYING amount of Torque, and even my non-GT dual motor spits out over 600Nm. The chassis on the EV6 is a peach, too, and the centre of gravity if slap-bang in the centre of the car in the floor so it corners like a mo-fo. I've done a cheeky slide or two on a roundabout and it's very, very controllable, and this is on the stock Nexen eco tyres.

@jonpetter8921 nobody's talking about European cars. This is about how one electric car performed against an American benchmark in power and performance. You mad extra cuz some euros really can't. That's another talk for another time

Great race, but we know the RWD Hellcats can’t put the power down. I say do this again, but with the Durango Hellcat… Then we’ll see what’s up AWD vs AWD. Thanks for posting!

Durango loses , there’s a video on you tube . 😂😂😂

EVs are definitely the future, and they will eventually own the performance records, but the classic muscle car is still a thing to experience. That said, this is more a test of RWD versus AWD on a less-than-ideal-surface, rather than ICE versus EV. It is representative of what would happen at a light, but would the tables turn at the track on a prepped surface and drag radials?

I'm surprised they kept the regen mode ON in the EV6, especially when it was at level 3 (almost MAX). Either way, was nice to watch.

@@StuartJ True. I believe you'll still get the full performance/power with your foot and pedal to the floor, but if you've ever driven with the regen high, once you let off of the pedal even just a little, the vehicle will apply the regen brakes without driver input.

Once again, the "Black Ghost" gets ghosted and gapped! This Dodge Challenger has a famous name and big reputation that it's not living up to, but this rare car will bring in megabucks at Barret Jackson and Mecum.

You can actually get more power in the EV6 GT by preconditioning the battery. Takes 5 to 15 minutes over 70% battery you get the full 576 hp and 545 tq otherwise it's more like only 500 hp. I know I own one. They should test it against a real performance car like the BMW M3 Comp X drive probably much closer.

How hard is it to add the year to the vehicle?

Hey! This is a Kia. The same company that built the Picanto🤣 destroying the greatest muscle car legacy. Car technology came a long way. But i still go for I.C.E for life. I cannot drive quietness 🙂

the thing about driving an ev6 gt everyday, is you can pass any car from behind it to in front of it go from 70 to 100 then let off the acceleration and be back to 80 all in a few seconds. also, it is very stealthy. it really is way more fun than you are imagining. I saw a mustang turn in front of me yesterday at a red light. it was so loud and all I could do laugh, but I wanted to swing around and meet him at the next light. most people have no idea what my car is. and I love that. only one speeding ticket since January.

Damn, this and the Shelby would be close

The IONIQ-5N, which is much more complete than the EV-6 GT, has been released. Since the performance has also increased, please compare it with sports cars with internal combustion engines with the IONIQ5 N.

Yes the ioniq 5 n is waaayyy better version of the ev6. I can not wait for US pre orders!!!!! I never wanted a car so bad

Is it illegal to warm up tires here??

Before watching- this should be interesting. My guess us that this will all come down to the Kia's brakes. If thr Kia's brakes work great, it will win. If not the challenger should be able to claw back s win on the return trip. If the driver nails the launch and turm at the end. Lets see how wrong i am!

That EV6GT is 0.6 seconds behind a BMW M3 competition and 0.8 seconds behind a M8 competition. FFS Its a Kia SUV. The world has gone mad. The Challenger is a serious embarassment. The only thing it wins is the little pinky finger award.

You're wrong. Ev6 gt is faster than m3 already.

It would be cool if you do stinger vs ev6 to see what is better number wise but we all know with one is better or maybe kia stinger vs scat pack or even a cadillac cts-v

We love KİA , especially EV6 and EV9 in TÜRKİYE...and also I have a Niro EV...

If the black ghost is this big of a failure just imagine the failure of the demon 170 😂😂

They need a Jenny Craig version of the Dodge Challenger. I mean, every time they come out with another Challenger, it puts on a few extra pounds. Honestly now, the beast needs to go on a serious diet if it ever hopes to be competitive again.
