      @@packetattack7437 I’m in the UK. At 4.7 metres long this is one of the bigger cars on the road. I can’t comment on headroom as I don’t have one and I am only 1.78 metres tall. My current car is an original Ioniq which I’m replacing with an Ioniq 5 next month. I’m a little worried about the sheer size of the I5, especially when manoeuvring in multistorey car parks. I did consider a Niro EV but went for the I5 because of the charging speed.

    Current EV6 owner (2023 model), which I love. Nothing on the new model that I love but nothing that I really dislike either. Headlights are fine, wouldn't be a deal breaker, but prefer the current model version. Like the new infotainment system, don't care either way on the new steering wheel, great that wireless carplay will now be available.

    I agree 100% with your analysis of the EV6 facelift especially the part about the front headlights and the new wheels. The EV6 is very different from the other EVs in Kia's lineup which are more boxy with maybe the exception of the Kia Niro. I just hope they add more exterior color options in the GT-Line trim.

    @garyclark6747 Před měsícem

    AWD IONIQ 5 Limited with no rear motor noise even when just using the rear motor only. Was that a RWD thing? EV6 square themed wheels are trying to transition this from a crossover to a SUV related to the EV9. I’d ok with the DRL’s but the horizontal connecting part needs to be hidden in the day and visible only when the head lights are on. Hopefully it’ll be thin as well. If the second color of the steering wheel matched the paint I’d be ok with that or atleast compliment the seating color that also compliments the exterior color. 11:57

      Everything is always possible regarding a software update. If it happens it likely will be done after the refresh models are out for a few months and then done quietly. This gives their salesmen the ability to say this feature is only available on the new model when they have both the new and older models in stock.
      They did the same thing with the ability to preheat the battery in the first year models as it was not available at all until a future software update on the AWD models since the RWD models didn't come with the ability to preheat the battery in the first year.

    I like how you put it, possibly an evil mustache! I do feel the EV6 has always been a battle of designs among itself, it’s got like 3 different designs from the front, side and rear. I wish Kia would ditch the “tiger nose” but I suppose it’s objective - I think it’s a poor style staple that calls back to their days as a cheap economy car company. Impressive list of changes for a mid-cycle. I’m sure the 2028 eV6 will usher a whole new design language, or be similar to however the EV9/3 refreshes look by then.

      The ride quality in my 22 Wind AWD is much better than a model 3 (pre highland refresh). EV6 to me is a more engaging drive if you use the regen paddle shifters to change the driving dynamics. The Model 3/Y is a get in sit down, drive and forget about most of the experience. My wife has a Model Y and I have an EV6. They both have pros and cons. It comes down to what you are looking for and how you use the car. Lots of long drives? Tesla in car charging navigation is leaps and bounds better than EV6. raw charge speed (if you get a working charger) the EV6 is way faster than a model 3.
