- Today, we are going for a range test with the all-new Kia EV6! We have shown you Kia EV6, Kia’s first all-electric car based on the all-new EV platform, but today, we are really going to show you how far the EV6 can drive with a single charge. Yes, we are going to drive the new Kia EV6 down to 0%. And for the range test, we have Kia EV6 long-range model RWD with 19inch rims. I can not tell you the outcome just yet, but there were times we were worried that we are not going to make it back home. And during the range test, we also compared the new Kia EV6 against Hyundai IONIQ 5, in terms of the interior and exterior design. Alright, without any further due, now let's get on the road with the new Kia EV6 and check out the range! And for today’s range day, our best friend Daniel is joining us!

Is Kia EV6 your favorite Electric Vehicle, "LIKE" if you agree. If now, tell us your favorite EV car in the comment section!
ionic 5 far superior and £5000.00 cheaper in uk does ev6 has light mode on display please show remote parking between lines in car park
far too much cheap piano black plastic better ride on ionic 5
ionic 5 bigger boot more legroom light and dark mode displays higher up bigger windows better alround visabily
@@seanholdom9739 interesting Sean, when the EV6 is in the show rooms I will definitely check the Iconic 5 out against it. Somebody said the iconic looks better in the flesh. A
I'm driving a KIA E-Soul at the moment and I have ordered an EV6 for 2022. Not available here in Ireland until later this year, so it's good to see and hear your reviews 👍
By the way, would you have a link to the firm that supplies the air mattress.
And also do you know if the EV6 is compatible with a custom KIA roof rack?
531 km! Wow! And the looks on the EV6 is very unique and sporty. Impressive Kia!!!
The EV6 is a real winner and will sell extremely well I believe. 👏
Yes, Kim. I couldn't believe how efficient this Kia EV6 was. Thanks.
Speed was about 70 kmph on an average
..
Have you seen any proof of the range ?? Don't be fool by his fanboy on Kia payroll.
@@BUNKERPT that is the thing that im talking about ... This is a big and quite heavy car ... Moreover its drag coefficient is also high about .28...To get this type or rage it needs to have a battery above 85 kwh.. here it has a battery which is only 77.4 kwh... Dont even know how much is the usable out of that... May be 72-73kwh.. then how come it has a range of 531 km ??? Answer is hyper milling...at 70 mph range test it might have a range of 285 miles...
Still good. It's a massive improvement over what we have been seeing
Impressive demo of actual range under realistic conditions, as well as using both V2L and V2V! Kudos on scoring a US-spec version and comparing your trip’s length to a comparable US one. Enjoyed the conversational style of this vid; you make a great team.
Yes, i was quite surprised to see the overall range. And yeah, loved the V2V capability.
KIA just came up with an amazing EV, and I'm sure that is success will be PHENOMENAL!
Yes, Kia did a great job with Kia EV6.
Drove it all. Was thinking EQC, i4, Tesla 3P.
Long term BMW fan.
Test drove EV6. Ordered one later that same week.
Awesome that Kia allowed this long range test drive. Both Kia and Hyundai deserve all the success they’ve worked hard for. Seriously considering the EV6 or the Ioniq 5 over Tesla and others. Fan of the channel from the UK, thanks for the in depth videos👌
Yes, I had a great time and Kia EV6 quite surprised me with the range!
And they didn't exactly drive it in "max range" mode - they were frequently, at least it seemed to me, going over 100km/h, which seriously affects the range.
Also the quoted range for the AWD has to be wrong, there's a table popping up in the video, it just can't be THAT much lower, it makes no sense.
@@tudormontescu6275 i think the cruising speed was about 70 kmph... They deliberately showed only that clips when the speed was above 100 kmph... I might be wrong though
@@ridwanurrahman8945 Its average speed, if you drive 100 kmph and make 1 stop you have to drive ridicilous speeds to keep your average speed 100 kmph!! you do realize that?
@@antza4393 They did 531km in 10h 21m. That’s an average of 50km/h (and the timer stops when they stop).
You guys have a great dynamic and cover so much. I've been looking forward to your EV6 video. Can't wait to see this car in person! Thanks for taking the time to make quality content!
Yes, hope you guys get to test drive the Kia EV6 in person!
EV6, great looking, loaded with features that make you feel you have really bought a unique vehicle.
Yeah, John this Kia EV6 looks and drives superbly.
KIA EV6 looks very nice, but I agree with Daniel. I like the IONIC-5.
Yeah, Hyundai IONIQ 5 still looks great. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
The reason that I'm leaning towards the IONIC-5 is because it comes with two years of free charging at Electrify America charging stations. I have not heard that KIA will offer that.
Great video Charlie, fantastic range and features. Looking forward to your GV60 preview when it comes out!
Yes, Ben. Hope to show you the Genesis GV60 first look! Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
Another amazing video Charlie, props to the effort put in by you and Daniel! Also the visuals were great in this one too!
Thank you Prashanth for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test down to 0%!
@@AsianPetrolhead Hehehe Yesh!
Excellent review guys! Well done! Love the ending! V2V
Yes, V2V is quite amazing. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
That ending plan was cool. Great job guys.
Thank you Mr H for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Wow!! Impressive range!! And great review guys
Thank you Lewis. Yes, i was quite surprised myself with the Kia EV6's range.
Driving the legal speed limit must have been difficult for Charlie!
Yes, Bill. But we didn't want to get a ticket. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
Thank you both for the range test and I really liked the V2V at the end, a very nice way to finish the video.
Thank you Victor. Yes, V2L is very bright idea from Hyundai and Kia.
you guys have a nice own style of reviewing a car. i like it. keep on going. and ev6 could be my next car
Thank you. Yeah, Kia EV6 is looking great!
Love this episode very much. Thanks for the effort. ❤️❤️
Thank you Leong for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
I hope to get my EV6 Gt Line in March or April. I'm getting impatient. Thanks again Charlie for the nice and educative video!
Yes, Thuy. I am sure you guys will love Kia EV6.
This car ticks all the boxes, amazing
Yes, this Kia EV6 looks quite promising!
Great job man I appreciate the hard work
Thank you GEORGE for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Daniel needs to do part-time job in APH. having two hosts on special occasion like this is great. as always great review from APH. keep it up Charlie. personally (if without budget problem i'll go for EV6 GT with the green & gray KIA GT liveries) looks so cool and sporty. the only thing i dislike with a passion is Hyundai Kia has been using dial/rotary type shifter on their cars.
Indeed!!
Yes, Yakub. I will try to talk to Daniel. But yeah, it's great to have sort of conversion type of format. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
Good vid, and for a range video it wasn't boring, I normally stop watching them after 5 minutes, but not this time.👍👍😎
Thank you Rigor. That is why we skipped 1st driving part to the turning point. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
great test guys. as usual, Korean EV range deliver better than estimated. That's awesome. Also i'd hope that you would show the charging rate during V2V.
Oh yeah, i heard 12amps, so it's not fast, but something great for emergency situations. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
3,6kwh peakpower in europe (230V 16A 1phase)
I think the charge rate is around 3kwh with V2V....
Daniel doing a great job being Canadian. Thank you Daniel! ;). I can't wait to test drive this and the Ioniq 5, ID4 and the Ariya.
Yes, i had a great time filming with Daniel. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Thank you for giving us a real-time range ! Excited to see it here in US with green leather interior
My pleasure. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
Everything and more from my fav channel!

Thank you Asadullah. Please do share our channel with your friends! That would be very helpful!
Great video guys, really appreciate this range test review! Very impressed with 530km range, really looking forward to get it here in New Zealand.
Yes, i was quite surprised myself, too. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test down to 0%!
@@AsianPetrolhead hy, what was the average speed? Thanks!
You did a great range test. Impressive!
Thank you Charlie for enjoying the Kia EV6 range test!
Enjoyed the ride. Two thumbs up.
Thank you Larry for enjoying our new 2022 Kia EV6 review!
Gentlemen, you didn’t mention the Kia is built much better than the Tesla. Especially in winter the Tesla is really built for California, and in my research the Kia is more reliable. Good job.
Yeah, i think everyone knows about that, so i didn't mention. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
for a number of reasons I would pick an EV6 over a MY
however, teslabjorn would disagree about winter vs tesla! :-P
Can you expand on what you mean is better in the winter?
@@saravasquez489 the under carriage of the Tesla isn’t well finished, lots of openings, snow salt and mostly sand accumulates underneath. The Kia is better build for all environments and I’m sure will be more reliable.
I'm all about sh!t-talking Tesla and especially Elon Musk, but wtf are you talking about? What research? EV6 is not for sale yet, or has barely just started. What research did you do to conclude it's more reliable than Tesla's? If we're going by battery fire history, it doesn't look so good for Hyundai/Kia. As for winter range, if Ioniq 5's numbers are a sign, Tesla is the better choice.
Fantastic video, really really enjoyed it, really impressed with the distance, I assume that you were driving the single motor 77KW. I originally liked the Ionic 5, it's a really nice car, but when I saw it, I almost didn't realize that it was the Ionic 5, the EV6 looks different, at least for me, as for the moving centre console on the Hyundai, it is nice, but I'm sure after a while it would just stay there without moving it, looking forward to mine to be delivered, I'm in Europe, was told possibly in October, great video, well done
Yes, Gerry. We were driving the long range model with RWD. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
I think the whole design of the EV6 really rocks. Although the Ioniq 5 is exciting to design purists it's actually quite polarising, with its origami folds, retro hatchback throwback style and decorative stripes. My wife wouldn't even test drive the Ioniq for those reasons. Personally I love the EV6 and think it inherits the proportions and window styling of the beautiful Saab 9-X BioHybrid prototypes of 2008. Wishful thinking, perhaps, but I've ordered one! AWD, GT-line, white!
Yes, i love the tailamp design, it looks so unique. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Had a test drive in the ev6 last week all I can say is wow amazing car and a bright future for Kia brand time now to educate people on ev driving and it’s potential
Yes, the Kia EV6 looks and drives so nicely. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Great review Charlie, and great car ! Thank you. I'am really impatient to receive my EV6 Earth RWD comet grey in France around november/december...
Yes, hope you get your Kia EV6 soon. I am sure you will love it. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 range test down to 0%!
The design of this car is just phenomenal!!!
Grrrreat video! Fantastic job on showing the range capabilities of this car. Can't wait for this vehicle to come out in the US! I'm sold.
Thank you JC for enjoying the new 2022 Kia EV6 review!
Really enjoy your videos Charlie, thanks for all the info you get us!
As for the cars, I am more in Daniel's camp with the Ioniq 5 but something I'm curious about is if in korea the ioniq 5 comes with the movable center console at all trim levels or not? In America they plan to make it a limited trim only feature, which makes me think, that if I could only get the base version of these two cars, I'd get the Kia since if Im going to have to deal with having a console I'd rather it be stylized than plain.
Yeah, there are lots of Hyundai IONIQ 5 fans. Yes they are very close, but i like Kia EV6 a bit better. Thank you
Great job guys! I’m still trying to decide between the Ioniq5 and EV6. Both seem great.
Yes, both are great EVs, but i am leaning more toward Kia EV6 with longer range! Thanks.
wow... how come no one is talking about this vehicle.. I'm glad I didn't pull the trigger on buying one yet. This was truly impressive .. especially the V2V part.. Kia is definitely coming up as the sleeper of the EVs to watch for. Thank you for the range test.. this really helps... to confuse my decision process even more.. lol
Yes, i think you guys will really like this new Kia EV6!
It's was great video 👍😊
Good job really ~~
It's was so much interested how it's going on with charge from another Ev6 🤣
Yes, Marksim. V2V is the 1st time for me, too. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Greetings from Sweden; I will get either the Ioniq 5 or the EV6.
My opinions on the design; I have only test driven the Ioniq 5 yet, the Swedish release of EV6 will be in November so let's see if I will change my mind once I see it IRL.
First of, think both of the cars looks really good, but here is the break down
Ioniq 5 exterior is a bit cooler then EV6, it has no bad angles! just cool all around. The EV6 can look aquard from the behind (maybe something to get used to)
Frontseat interior I would give to EV6, physical buttons on the steeringwheel is a big plus, looks much better then Ioniq (and other touch buttons).
Also the instrument cluster with black bezel looks better then white bezels, I hope Ioniq fix that in the future.
Backseat design I prefer Ioniq, movable seats, larger windows, more space for feet I believe
Trunk - I would say a split. If space is of most concern, then Ioniq5 wins, if it is more important with foldable seat from trunk, then Kia wins.
Keep up the good work, I really like your channel :)
Yes, you have to drive both and choose. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
All the testers are talking "design" of EV6 vs Ioniq 5 but no one is talking of colour choice. I love the Ioniq 5 but hate the Hyundai choice of colours... Grey, Blue Grey, Green Gray & Silver!! Hopeless for a £50,000 car. The EV6 is leagues better with a full rainbow of colour choice.
Yes, Mika, Kia EV6 seems to have more vivid colors.

Yes, it was so much fun filming with Daniel. Thank you for enjoying the New Kia EV6 review!
Going to watch this in work
Thank you noel for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
Its amazing car thank you Charlie for the video and i really respect your opinion bc i love the ev6 too
Thank you huh. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Here in Spain, Tesla Model 3 SR + starts at 49.000€. EV6 LR starts at 44.000€. Definitively I prefer the EVSexy. In my opinion much more value for less price, and it looks quite impressive, exterior and interior. Great job done by KIA!!
I'm a e-Niro owner, I'm very happy with it, but I'm falling in love of the EV6. :)
Congrats, pretty awesome video guys!!
LOL EV sexy. I love that. Thank you for enjoying our ultimate range test with Kia EV6.
@@AsianPetrolhead Thanks to you for the video man! :)
Very impressed, it gives you confidence in the EV6 that you get accurate range witch is a huge plus, 😊😊🇮🇪
Yes, i am quite surprised about the range, too. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 range test!
Great video, would have loved to see the supercharging speed after you ran it dry but maybe you can make a seperate video for that? :)

@@MrMervenut Would have been interesting to see if Charlie got the same charging curb
@@Victorp1612 agreed I have seen the ionic 5 video and it's great, was interested to see how this holds up
Another great review and drive test. How does this compare driving characteristics with Ioniq 5? I am in the UK. I ordered EV6 GT-Line RWD. I consider practicality than 0-100 km time. I am wondering if I should be looking Ioniq 5 as well. I can see you drove 531 km. What was the avg speed?
IONIQ 5 seems more spacious and design for the family, while Kia EV6 looks and feels more sporty. Average speed about 100km/h on highway (62mph). Thanks
Am very much impressed with the EV6 ! Same with Ioniq 5 ! Also Mustang Mach E ! Top 3 for me !
Yes, they are great EVs. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Two thumbs up, guys!!!!
Thank you Tony for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Never been a Kia fan but now I am! Never thought I would ever admire a kia
Yes, the Kia EV6 looks quite promising. Thanks Yolosolo.
Great video guys - impressive stuff. The car ye tested was the RWD GT line model I believe? Is the color the steel grey or the Moonscape grey? any idea? Looks more steel grey to me but was told was only available in the Earth model. cheers
Yes, Eric. We test drove the long range model with RWD. It's Moonscape Matte Grey! Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Ahh I love this video, have you done this 0% test to ioniq 5 as well?
No, we have driven the Hyundai IONIQ 5 down to 3%, but not until 0%. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test! czcams.com/video/yKuy2EvsDXM/video.html
All good guys, keep up the good work. Comprehensive and useful assessment, KIA EV 6 is impressive, like Daniel, I still prefer the Ioniq 5, I would take either one in a heart beat!
Thank you bernard for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
I am going to buy the ev6 most probably! Thanks for the nice range test 👍
Welcome, my pleasure. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review.
Very nice 😁 can't wait to see the Genessis GV60. The gv70 it's my go to for now but I'm considering to go electric so I'll wait a bit.
Yes, hope to give you 1st look on the Genesis GV60. Thank you for enjoying the new Kia EV6 review!
I did saw a white GV60 on the road moving via a korean channel on CZcams here... sporty design looks.
정말 고생 많으십니다. 잘 보고 있어요.
항상, 감사합니다! ^^
Hi Charlie. Thanks for some great content !
Do you seat as high over the ground in the EV6 as in the ioniq 5? I have tried the i5, and really like the SUV-like seating position. The EV6 looks lower, but is it maybe only the roofline there is lower?
Great content and great car
Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
What a great review and love the conversation during the journey! How many miles do you lose with the AWD - Launch model in US and do you plan to do the test with the AWD model? Thanks!
Hi Kevin. You loose about 34km = 21miles. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Cool! Interesting fact that you can charge your car from another one, at least a similar one. I think this it should be the next step for all the manufacturers, maybe even a standardize interface in order to facilitate this thing.
Yes, it's really interesting, V2V is not fast, but you can actually use it on emergency situations. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Yes ! Kia EV6 GT-Line is my favorite , I ordered one in black !
Nice, must be sweet in black. Thanks for enjoying the Kia ev6 review.
OMG 😳 I Love It 😻
Yes, this Kia EV6 looks quite promising.
@@AsianPetrolhead Yeah 😎 the best Ev6
Hi Charlie, great videos thank you. Do you have one about functionality of V2G? Thinking of getting home solar panels using this vehicle in future as battery storage. I'd like to know what the interface is like. Is there an app to limit drain on the battery to keep capacity for driving? Or user controls settings from inside car? What is maximum power output? Hope you might be able to explain. Thank you from NZ!
The more reviews, I see with this car. It's definitely getting considered, but waiting for the GT version first before I head to the dealer🤞🏼😀
Yes, Kia EV6 GT coming next year! Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 range test down to 0%!
Good test
Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
Great job....and that's with 2 more occupants than normal for the USA!
Yeah, the Kia EV6 returned quite nice efficiency. Thanks Paul.
Isn’t Daniel the guy who was the Hyundai owner in a video? Great addition! 173K subscribers…wow, you’ve come a long way. How is the cabin noise?
Yes, STeven. Daniel was in our owner's review with his 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe review. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test down to 0%!
Thanks for the video Charlie. Going to get a EV6 GT-Line (arriving next month in my country). One question tho. What average speed did you guys made while testing this on the highway? What you think the car would make on a average of 130/140 KM/h on a highway? 450 KM range? Less? Thanks and again, great content.
We were averaging about 100~110km/h on the highway. (62mph~). Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
@@AsianPetrolhead what percentage highway versus city driving did you do?
Awesome test and real world mileage !! Kia has another winner here and yes it is much more appealing than the low quality janky Tesla with it's catfish styling!! Tough choice between the EV6 and the Ioniq5 !! Both are amazing !!
yes, i really think Kia really pulled it off this time with Kia EV6.
I think Kia has better consumption than Ioniq 5, and honestly I don't like how Tesla looks and I'm probably going to get criticised for it but I think Tesla is just a gadget, good working gadget that has a potential to get bad really fast (in sense of quality, that will decline the more orders they get), I have nothing to base that opinion on, just my gut feeling
Excellent car. Excellent video
Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Awesome !
Thank you Adithya for enjoying the new Kia EV6 review!
Ioniq 5 for me love the video ❤️
Yes, Hyundai IONIQ 5 still looking stunning. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
I like the Kia EV6 more than the Ioniq5 - the design looks fresher and for me more interesting and dynamic.
Hope that you can show us soon a test between the EV6 and the GV60 🙏🤞😎👍💯 - that would be magic! Thanks for your great reviews!
Thank you Roger. Yes, i am liking the Kia EV6 design, too. Thanks.
Great video, really impressed with the cars range, do you think it would of gone much further? Tough choice between one of these, an enyaq or model y for my next car! Tesla superchargers are a big advantage to have.
Well, it i was driving only myself. Yes, i think the Kia EV6 could have reached a bit better range. Thank you Sam.
Well done on the range test, I like the look of the ev6 but haven’t seen either in person located i. Australia. Price will be interesting as the Ionic5 starts at $72,000 up to $77,000 before taxes and on road costs. So around 80,000 plus. That’s a lot of petrol for similar spec car.
Like the e2l, e2v, what I’d like to see is a charger cord that rolls out from portable charger. Similar to how the cord goes into a vacuum.
Thank you for enjoying the new Kia EV6 range test! Hope you guys get Kia EV6 and Hyundai IONIQ 5 with reasonable pricing in Australia. Thanks Shane.
If 80,000 is reasonable. But problem we also have is some state governments are putting a tax on ownership, like a road tax.
Hi guys, thx for your "range" videos ! Would be very interesting to do the exact same test with the Dual motor to test for real the "impact" of the AWD safer option on autonomy ... thx :-)
Oh yes, i would try to find a test car. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
@@AsianPetrolhead With the AWD you need to do two tests, one in ECO and one in sport mode as when in ECO the front motor is disconnected via an electronic clutch so should be slightly more efficient.
@@robev809 it's good idea, but I think don't need to fool yourself. dual motors in ECO mode will be similar to a long range with one engine. if difference will is 5-10 km it just doesn't make sense 🤔
Nice video looking forward for model y awd vs ev 6 awd long range... ah and that ev 6 air matress too for camping. Exiting. And kia don't skip rear blinds etc etc.
Yes, hope Kia really sell the air mattress with the Kia EV6 in N. America, too. Thank you.
Charlie 328 miles is the quoted range for the car in the UK. I am a wee bit surprised you did not get more miles from 100% to 0%.
Yes, i am quite surprised about the range from Kia EV6~! Thanks Gordon.
Guys very nice test drive, and I think next time you should mention the high quality that kia and hundai has, compering Tesla. Good for you Charles 👍
Yeah, we will. Thank you Morphious for enjoying the Kia EV6 review.
"6" on the charger display means you are only charging with 6amps ( x 230V = 1,3kW). You can hold down the button on the charger and toggle between 6,8,10 and 12A. 12A will give you roughly 2,7kW.
Yes, you're right, but we did set it wrong i guess, b/c Kia guys said it can do upto 12amps. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 range test down to 0%!
Awesome range, very impressive Kia.
Yes, the Kia EV6 impressed me, too. Thank you Steven for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test down to 0%!
Charlie, I Forgot to Mention that I got my New Vehicle for Lower Monthly Payments; 5yrs.! I Love This Chip Shortage!! NOW, I have Everything I Always Wanted!!!
NicE!
Nice video and nice car! Can you give us more details about the road trip: how many km on highway and how many on normal roads and the travel speed for each one? Thanks!
yeah, mostly on highway driving around 100km/h = 62mph. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
What do you think it should be the range at a constant speed of 130 km/h on highway?
Hyundai KIA Genesis going to dominate the market
Yeah, this Kia EV6 looks very promising.
So that was 13.89kWh/100km.
Impressive, knowing that there were three adults in the car and probably some equipment. AC was running too.
So, with only one person, this could do better?
The only questions I have:
- Average speed
- Peak speed driven for more than 5 minutes (because that one acceleration you did doesn't really count)
Thanks for a great video.
PS: My choice would probably be Hyundai Ioniq 5 (well it has that "iconic" exterior, right?). Waiting for N version though.
Yes, i think it would be better with only one person in the car. Average speed: 100km/h~110km/h (62mph~) on the highway / Peak would be like 115km/h or so. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
I really like the Citroen DS/SM design cues of this car - it looks futuristic and sophisticated.
Citroen? DS? Where?
Great range-test down to 0%. Tesla Bjorn did this range test in Korea about 2 years ago and his Kia Niro EV got about 500 km also, on its 64kWh battery, so that EV (which I have) has similar range to this EV6 with its 77.4kWh battery.. impressive of Niro EV... what was your average driving speed ? About 100 km/h? And when will you re-do the Ioniq 5 range-test down to 0% and hopefully using the same route and weather conditions for EV6?
We were driving between 100km/h and 110km/h on highway. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 range test down to 0%! Yes, we will try to book a press car!
@@AsianPetrolhead We can see at you guys used 10 hours and 21 min = 50 km/h average driving speed
Let’s just hope we are able to get one when they launch. I’m definitely going electric next having just sold my heavily modded wrangler. Would be great if we could actually get new vehicles on the lots soon. Until then I’ll be running around in the kids Kia Soul for a while.
Yeah, Will. Hope you will get the Kia EV6 soon in your area.
Totally agree with Daniel about the missing baby shades in the rear for EV6. this combined the sliding rear seats and bigger boot that Ioniq 5 has makes it much more practical and roomy. So I will take Ioniq 5 for my wife and 2 small kids! even though i would have liked to choose the EV6 because of the sleeker design and longer range. What a shame KIA!
Yes, both are great EVs, but if you want more space for your family Hyundai IONIQ 5 is the answer, but if you want more stylish EV with more personalized space, then Kia EV6 is the right answer for you!
very impressive
Yes, i was surprised myself. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
For me, I prefer the Ioniq 5. Hyundai, Kia and Genesis are really shaking up the market.
Yes Barry, Hyundai IONIQ 5 still looks great. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 review!
@@AsianPetrolhead Great channel and reviews.
I just recently got to be in an Ioniq 5 (top version with all extras) and have a test drive in it and I couldn't believe just how luxurious (and fast) it was. The comfort of sitting in that car isn't something you can capture on camera but it was one of the best cars I ever sat in.
Simon F. I am with you Barry. The ioniq 5 is the way to go if you want space. The EV6 is a shade faster to 100kph - the Asian Petrol Head pulled a 4.7 from an i5 he was testing the othe day. So the difference is pretty minimal I'm not an EV fan but I thought I would give it go. Pick up i5 Limited with solar panel roof next week. Atlas White. Cooler in the hot NZ sun.
How many of these will Hyundai/Kia be able to build? They'll sell all they can make. This EGMP platform is a winner.
I not sure, as much as they can. Love the new E-GMP platform. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Hi, Charlie. I live in Vancouver and pre-ordered an EV6! Just a quick question: was there much of an elevation change on your road trip? I'm curious about power consumption on inclines.
Yes, quite a bit. Hard to say how much. But yes. Thanks for enjoying the range test with the Kia EV6.
In terms of driving dynamics, I think you preferred the ev6 over ioniq 5. However, I read in a uk publication that they thought the ioniq 5 was a bit bouncy and wallowy giving a slight seasickness effect even though they placed it second behind a Tesla model 3. Did you find that the ioniq 5 was too soft because I saw you drive it quite quickly down some back roads
Well, maybe it's only for Korean spec model, but when i drove Hyundai IONIQ 5 and Kia EV6, i felt Kia EV6 felt a bit more soft and tilting. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 Range Test!
Nice video. Do you know the range at constant 120km/h, which would be typical for my use as a musician, driving the freeway a lot of the time?
Well, we have speed limit here in Korea about 100km~110km/h, so i can't give you that range test in Korea. That would be illegal. Thank you for enjoying the Kia EV6 range test.
I wish I could just go to my local Kia dealer and buy one of these! Looks like an awesome car.
Yes, i hope you guys get more Kia EV6s in N. America. Thanks Johchadow.
