I just got my Kia ev6 gt last week…traded my 2018 Audi a4 for it and i must say im in love with the car the ride quality is amazing the interior and features are top notch i do not have any form of buyers regret at all! The only downside are the lines at the charge station then having to charge for 30 mins! But they gave me 3 years free charging. I guess the only downside to the car itself are the fact that the seats are manual and not electric I mean a 60k price tag you would think they would be but! I mean with everything else the car offers you definitely will not care about having to adjust the seat manually

[@gooble69]

Just looking at trading in my SQ5 for one. I took it for a spin and was impressed with the ride quality (and of course the acceleration). The SQ5 handles well but is a but 'jiggly' with tight suspension for daily drives. The Kia was so smooth. It drives like a Camry if you want it to, or a Porsche GT3 if you hit the button. It's an amazing car, I'll probably buy it. How has it been after 10 months? I figured the charging would be a minor hassle but I drive low kms so shouldn't be too bad.

[@Sakosaga]

@@colingregson8653 you do realize high end gas cars do not have good range either right? It's only been recently in the last few years that automakers have been forced due to laws and regulations to focus on fuel economy. most older cars do not have amazing fuel economy. EVs just need time as well for the battery technology to show the potential. Lucid is already giving us commercial cars with that ability and we've seen researching changing Tesla's battery pack to new technology they've been working on getting past 800 range. The reason why charging feels bad is because in the west companies aren't making enough. Compared to in Korea where the infrastructure is actually decent . GM has already said they're going to do something similar to Tesla and focus on building more charges over the next few years. New EVs will charge 0-80 in under 20 minutes.

[@rickyreal2921]

That was quite an interesting match up, the Lamborghini showed its power, but the Kia and etron did well to actually keep up based on the price differences.

[@Stealthassin135]

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the fact that that SVJ is driven uniquely and enjoyed by it's owner. I just don't think it's the right car for Carwow's drag races because it will never be an accurate depiction of that car's performance. An SVJ that hasn't been punished off-roading will deliver much better results.

A kia to compete with a lambo is a statement of how far they've come. Well done kia

What’s almost equally impressive as how well the Kia did against the SVJ, is considering it’s essentially the same performance as Audi’s flagship RS EV at half the price…and it’s a family SUV. Lookout Tesla.
