  • We had the Kia EV6 on loan over the Christmas holidays and so decided to use that for our usual holiday trip away to a seaside town.
    Keep in mind we only had the car for about 2 days before we went on this trip and my overview video was shot after we returned from this trip. You can watch the overview video here - • KIA EV6 Overview from ...

      @notacarguy_au  Před 5 měsíci

      I suppose double time could do it, or maybe do it in sections. I was curious as to how you could like the video without having watched the whole thing. 🤣

    Hi Lee. Re the HUD white on white issue, SBS TV solved that a while ago. Their subtitles are now bright yellow with a black outline. Totally visible on a white screen (or any colour for that matter)....

    • @notacarguy_au
      @notacarguy_au  Před 2 měsíci

      That’s a good idea, though the colour behind could always be changing. So still a challenge.

    We have 2 cars currently and the fanciest thing one has is electric windows and in the other car it's auto climate control.
    This all looks too confusing (it's probably me just being cynical). The NAV does look good though.
    The thing I like about the MY (soooo close to delivery now) us that it has all the tech but it's not intrusive (to me at least).
    It's kinda like comparing an iPhone to an Android. They both do the same thing but the iPhone does it easier.

      Different strokes for different folks. I know quite a few people that really dislike how there are so few buttons in the Teslas. I think it really comes down to personal preferences. I also really like the minimalism of the Tesla, but will also admit that there are times I would prefer an actual physical control to do things. 🤷🏻
      Hope your Model Y comes soon and hope you enjoy it. ☺️

      I'm sure I will feel the same after a while and wish for a couple of things to have buttons.

    Stop, I did not see children or grandchildren. It is a trip of a small family.
    EV6 has tight space rear. The roof destroy all comport if you higher then 130 cm

      Child wasn’t keen to be on camera for this trip. You can see the rear area in my overview video. It came out about 2 weeks before this one.

    So its a nice "car" but its no Tesla

    • @notacarguy_au

      I wouldn't frame it like that. I'd say that there's no such thing as a perfect thing. There are some things that the EV6 does better then my Model Y and there are some things that my Model Y does better. It comes down to what features and functions are more important to each person and they can then decide which option is better for them.
      I hope that comes across better in my overview video of the EV6. Hope you watch and enjoy that. ☺️

      @ O000hShiny Honestly, why put the word car in inverted commas?
