Tapping the paddle shifters in my EV6 do nothing. I've been googling for 3 days. Holding them doesn't do anything either. Can someone please help!

We bought the EQS SUV this week and love it. Just all around better vehicle than bmw

Nissan Ariya measurements at 2:40 are all "F"ed up. 4595 km is 180.9" not 182.9" 1850 km is 72.8" not 74.8" 1655 I'm is 65.2" not 65.4" IONIQ 5 conversions are correct, good for you. Simple math gets you thumbs down.

The drag coefficient is often thrown around but is only part of the equation, the other being the frontal area. That said I have no idea what they are for these cars.

The Kia looks better,performs better and feels a little better in build quality, driven both. Much more space inside as well. The Kia is a mix of a stationwagon and an suv, while the bmw is only a sedan.

EV6 GT here.. IPEDAL mode is cancer. It keeps front motor on.. so i have 15% moore consumption, no matter whatr...

One thing you didn’t seem to mention is the range hit you take as soon as you leave eco mode for normal mode. It can be as much as 20 miles if I remember correctly. This makes comparison between eco and normal modes pointless if overall range is what matters most.

Yr the only one i know who got a lemon

I got 2024 ev 6 gt line love it

Very informative 👏

You give the most informative information ! Thank You so much ...

even with a cheaper sticker price the mache leases cheaper

I know I'm late to the party but allow me to share my experience: I always have i-Pedal engaged but I always (98%) drive with cruise control on. I live in upstate NY (Hudson Valley) which has cold winters and is very hilly. With snow tires on 5 months of the year I have averaged 3.3 MPK over 18,000 miles in my AWD Ioniq 5 Ltd. What these tests overlook is that WHEN CRUISE CONTROL IS ON, I-PEDAL IS AUTOMATICALLY SUSPENDED, THEN RESUMED THE MOMENT YOU DISENGAGE CRUISE CONTROL. When in local 'cities', cruise control let's me relax and manages efficiency automatically.

Get to the point already

I7 definitely looks much better. EQS looks is very cheap.

That’s why I drive the original ioniq. No problems after 24000 miles.

need to test auto 1 vs auto 3 now 😅

When i go for a run i just leave my key’s in the i-pace and lock/unlock with my phone, don’t really see the point of the bracelet

I used the paddles as needed, like gearing down in an ICE.

Get the bus pal.. cars are the devils spun k.

you do know Auto has multiple settings, right? Right? also - i'm under the impression when you hit the brakes, it uses regen before applying any brakes. so, there is that too...

I get highest with 0 , allow the car to “ free wheel “ as much as possible rather than 1 pedal full regen driving . I get 1kwh per Mile better efficiency

How can you make the comparison and NOT drive the cars, 'on paper' figures are speculative, brands boast the 'best', but on EVs its the actual physical indepth test that sways the buyer (such as I)

Absolutely wonderful video. Loved it

Thank you Mahesh!! I just discovered your channel as I'm thinking of purchasing an EV6 Gt-Line but waiting for the 2025 upgrade. I love your videos as they're very informative and detailed. I'm discovering many things I didn't know before purchasing the EV6. Are you still happy with the EV6? Again, thank you so much for your great videos and insight! : )

I've been a little concerned with long term battery cost for replacement when needs be. I plan to keep cars for the next 20 years unless its not economic to do so. As much savings there is for fuel, it seems negated if the battery is $60,000 like it was for that individual with the Hyundai Ioniq. Insurance cost is a little higher than an equivalent hybrid for me, $100mo/ vs $140. I just want to see if I'll really save money or not. I only drive about 6000-7000 miles a year.

Impressive video & detail!

Hmmm... interesting... you don't seem to have used 'smart'; cruise control. for any of these trials. I'm in the UK, with an ionic electric 39kwh and use cruise a lot, even in London's suburbs, I am frequently getting 5m/kWh and even reached 7m/kWh on a longer trip recently.

KIA EV6 all the way

Good video however I think you only proved that regen level 3 is the way to go on this route. I wonder how the car would do with auto regeneration level 1 or 2. Also when breaking I believe you get both regenerative breaking and friction breaking for harder stops. The car shows that it is recapturing power in my ionic 6 when using break.

Good job. All clear to me :-)

In rwd version you would get bether results on i-pedel as it actually works in eco mode where AWD have an issue there

I own Ioniq 5 and I love it. I'd go with Hyundai over Polestar for you (larger for dog, charges faster, flexible bc ack seat, it is comfortable but it's still fun to drive on windy roads. EV6 also good but a bit smaller. I am thinking of 2023 Polestar 2 Lobg Range Single Motor Plus with faster charge speeds than AWD. Ioniq is plenty fast. But access to Tesla superchargers is why I may switch to Pokestar. Hyundai will be better lobg road trip car but both are fun. Go with Ioniq 5. Bigger, better driving aids, still fun daily driver. As I said the 2024 Mach-E And Polestar 2 are tempting me, but rgen I drive my Hyundai and come away witg a smile in my face!

after a month its in service for an entire battery replacement with no return date in sight. 😢

Gay sounding bald ABCD named Mahesh 😂😂

I love to use coasting (lvl 0) then the closer I get to the stop sign I will increase the regen level till i stop I get maximum regen and I do not use my accelerator pedal well ahead of the stop zone it's so easy to drive that way same on the highway when it stop in front of me I start increasing regen levels and brakes if I have to but as long as my tampon zone is not too short usually I coast or brake less than in front of me to decrease the distance between me and the car in front and that's enough time to let the traffic pick up speed again no need to let ACC (or AUTO regen mode) stop me in advance to keep the maximum space between us

If and when you ever do this video again you need to recognize that lane keep assist is different from lane follow assist.

I’d love to see which mode provides a better or at least sufficient BRAKE LIGHT ACTIVATION. I am more than a little concerned about what people who follow see when I’m slowing rapidly in Ipedal or Auto 3. I actually anticipate legislation addressing this in the future.

The X obviously needs a major optic refresh both for exterior and interior.

i ve tried this cars and i ll go with the auto level 3 all day . 😎

Are you sure the outside temp and your AC settings were the same? That's going to make the biggest difference in eco mode, and longer drive will show a better difference.

T8 has much reduced AWD capability and the added benefits of the hybrid system is also add possible issues in the long run. T6 is definitely a better option if you want good AWD. T8 is a better option if its mostly a commuting vehicle that you plan on selling before the warranty expires anyway.

Now there is an update on the trip planner (charging)

I have the Ioniq 5 rwd 72.4 model 2022 january and driven 97000 km. Not one problem and I think that this vehicle is both silent, good build quality and ok range for its size. In summer on 80% around 350 km on a mix of highway and b road🤗

The issue with I-Pedal in Hyundai/Kia models is that it keeps the front motor engaged all the time. I wish they’d allow stronger regen without locking the front motor on all the time. You can easily adjust the accelerator to coast regardless of regen level selected. The front motor adds additional drag even when not being used for power as PMSM motors cannot freewheel, always exerting a force as the rotor spins even when “coasting”, for this reason Tesla uses induction front motors on the 3/Y as they can freewheel without the need for the mechanical clutch Hyundai/Kia uses.

Very good informative video - thanks for producing and sharing it. My thinking is that the most efficient way to drive the EV6 / Ioniq 5 / GV60 / eGV70 is to use Auto Regen set to a "floor" of Lvl 0 or Lvl 1 and let the system ramp up automatically to as high as Lvl 3 as you come up on slower or stopped traffic. If/when you're coming up on a stop sign or a red light light without any vehicles ahead you can use the left paddle to temporarily raise the Auto Regen "floor" to Lvl 2 or Lvl 3. In either scenario you can pull & hold the left paddle to bring the vehicle to a complete stop rather than using the brake pedal. I encourage all owners of these HMG vehicles to give these methods a try.

GV60

Hi, I have purchased the Ioniq 5 couple of month back... pop come check electric vehicle system and with couple of min. the ac cooling get off.... and when you switch the car again the ac gets on .... but when I shown this problem in the company work shop they are not able to get it whats wrong with it ... sometimes you are able to here the knocking before the ac is gets off... still i am driving the car... and waiting for the company answer what to do next... company is giving the assurance we are still understanding whats wrong .....but no answer yet.... the moral is stick to petrol and say no to electric

I was thinking about buying an EV6 but there is also a charge port overheating issue . As much as I want the car I think I am still going to pass on it. Thanks for your Vid . Thumbs up for this one.
