The funny thing for me is that I just got a 2024 EV6 Wind AWD with the Tech Package, and it has more power and torque than I know what to do with (coming out of a 2012 Ford Focus). I managed to get mine for $43000 (MSRP $55960 + $3285 dealer installed accessories).

Keep eye out for black line on both front calipers. If you see a 1/4 inch perfect semi circle on outside of front calipers have dealer buy car back immediately. They still have NO fix for outer caliper contacting the wheel which can be fatal on the 2023’s.

Looks Great Jeff! I also bought a White EV6 Gtline-2 here in Canada 3 weeks ago. (It is the only trim below the GT) 1. Daily driver with way more power than I would ever need. 2. Wife wouldn't justify that we needed the upgrade, but I am more than happy. Same aggressive look as the GT with just slightly smaller wheels. There are great deals here in Canada too, they very recently, reduced pricing so they are now eligible for federal and most provincial incentives. They were considered luxury here before and were over the threshold so it's a great time to buy. Although I'd be pissed if I already owned a GT haha

​@@TechnicallyJeffone thing about leasing it is that your residual value is set just in case the car value is really upside down. I always tell people to lease EVs for that added protection even tho it's more expensive overall to own it. In this case tho it will work out better as I have a feeling that the value will be less than what you're going to be expecting. I've seen a used 2023 GT a few months ago with 12K miles or so for around 44K from the MSRP of 63K. How much was the selling price after all rebates before taxes and trade-in if you don't mind me asking? I was able to get a dealership around 2 hours away a few months ago to sell me mine for $50K before tax and after all rebates. I could've tried more but I didn't want to waste anymore time with it. I could've gotten a black one for a little cheaper but wanted white instead. Black cars are nice but I don't have time to wash it every week hehe 😊 Also my lease is 2 years and if I don't keep it I will be looking at the EV9 GT. 😊 I've already did several mods to my car and planning to do more like lowering it as I think that's a must for a better stance. I'm wanting to do the turn signal mod too hopefully by the end of this year. Yes I know it's a lease but I'm able to reverse everything if I do decide not to keep it. Waste of money or not, it's what makes me happy while driving this awesome car for at least the next 2 years. I'm more on the side of keeping it tho but this is all dependent on true resale value as well.
@TechnicallyJeff
@TechnicallyJeff 4 ай бұрын
Yeah leasing is really smart, especially if there's uncertainty about resale. Crazy the residual on my GT is $38k and I've seen people posting used 2023 GTs with low miles for well under that lol. I got it for $61750 - $11750 rebates, so exactly $50k after the rebates. Then they gave me $8500 over kelly blue book for my trade. Definitely a solid deal.

Interesting choice. In Europe, the price has been reduced by 10 to 17 thousand euros (depending on the country). This makes it the cheapest +400kw vehicle on the market. They need to sell out of stock to make room for the next generation, which should be on sale globally in 10-13 months.

Kia cheapen out with the NA models as they don't have the nicer Michelin Pilot 4S tires. The best beat is to get some all weather Michelin tires. I'm planning on doing this once summer is over later this year. The more expensive option would be to downgrade to 19s or 20s with some nicer rims. You will get better range at least.

I can second that. I have had my GT since February, 2023 and my overall usage is 3.4 miles/ kWh. In the summer I can get close to 300 miles if I drive conservatively - and that’s in Normal mode, not Eco, with enough blasts in GT mode to keep me happy. The car’s range has WAY outperformed my expectations. Not to mention the build quality and the fun factor. I have owned performance BMWs for almost 30 years but I decided to not be a badge snob and try something new. I’m so glad I did.

I hope that you have a voice with KIA since the demo car that you reviewed. I went away for vacation for 7 days. Car charged the car to 100% so not an issue. When I returned, the car app would not allow remote start because it hadn't been driven in several days. This sucks if someone wants to autostart their vehicle at the airport to turn on the heater so the car is defrosted and warm upon arrival. I can send you the image from my screenshot from my Kia Connect App, with car at 90%, which says: "Vehicle Connectivity Warning Action may be required to re-establish Kia Connnect connectivity. As a battery-saving feature, your vehicle will pause communications with Kia Connect after a few days of inactivity. Manually start the vehicle to reconnect to Kia Connect." This is dumb and should only happen when the car battery drops below 30%.

That's really interesting. I suppose it's designed to do that to keep the car from waking up to refresh the app info and draining the 12v. I agree though, it should just be able to be checked and then charge the 12v when necessary using the high voltage battery.

I looking into trading in my '22 Niro EV. My wife currently have a '23 GT Line AWD. Would love to get a GT if I can a decent trade in value for my Niro. Can you please do a breakdown of all the discounts and incentives you got? What was the out the door price of your GT ? What's the monthly payment on the 2 year lease?

How’s the seat comfort difference between GT and Wind on normal day to day driving and uneven road surfaces?
@TechnicallyJeff

They are both similar in my opinion. I like sport seats though personally.

Thank you. I am in process of negotiating lease at different state. 2024 GT line and 2023 GT. Both payments is identical in fact 2023 GT is slightly cheaper. But spouse is seat comfort and handle for just day to day drive. How is new GT brake responsiveness compare to Wind on surface street

Brakes are about the same feeling. You can adjust it between normal and sport in the settings. For comfort, I drove my Wind 250 miles to the dealership and the GT 250 miles home and both were about the same comfort wise. The GT has a lot more power but you give up a little range and the power seats and cooling. Cooled seats aren't necessary with the alcantara on the seats though.

Nice trade! Any plans to do anything with the wheels like the Wind? Or too soon?

Thanks! Since it's a lease, I'd need another set of wheels and tires so I can swap back at least end haha. We'll see.

Let us know how the seats are when it gets hot out. I love ventilated seats on my other vehicles. I've been holding out for a GV60, but the used GT and Polestar 2 deals right now are crazy.

It was 87 and sunny today. Getting in the hot car the seats weren't bad at all. I think the alcantara helps that a lot.

I would say the alcantara will keep you warmer on colder days than leather or vinyl. On hot days it won't be burning you like leather or vinyl would. The memory and power seats I could do without since I'm the only one driving it but it should've had vents seats at least. They were able to do it on the 5N so why not here? I'm side the revised one coming up in 25 will get it tho. One thing to keep in mind tho is that the remote start on your key fob will active the last air conditioning setting. So just make you leave it on whiling turning off your car. If you don't it does nothing. I'm sure it's smart enough to know that it's hot outside and go turn on ghr AC but it doesn't. All it does is to get you going faster that's all. With ghr Kia Access app you could set the temperature of the remote start tho. I'm sure they're trying to up sell you to keeping the subscription if anything. I like remote starting on the key fob instead as it's just there and you could do it quickly vs longer on your phone.

Yeah, they're manual. Honestly I like that about my GT. Moving the seat is very quick and it's easy to get into position.
