[@Investor9872]

Don't use that too much, unless you're leasing the vehicle I guess, because supercharging will degrade your battery life signicantly.

[@geraltofrivian516]

@@Investor9872 oh I’m definitely not! I have been charging to 100% just for a vacation we are on. Otherwise it’s only 80% charge ups at home

[@0hypnotoad0]

@@geraltofrivian516 That's pretty good for a 100% charge. In general though I'd say a lot of the time the last 20% of the charging cycle is almost not worth it, on some vehicles the last 30% will take as long as the first 70%. Shorter but slightly more frequent charging stops tend to be the most time-efficient, it's best to line up charging with bathroom breaks if it's possible.

[@thomascolbey4354]

Being the first owner in Alabama to have purchased a KIA EV6 on February 12 (couldn't get the vehicle until after the Superbowl debut Feb 13), I have logged over 3100 miles in almost 4 months. The KIA dealership gave me a ChargePoint Home Flex 50A ($700 value), a 240-volt Level 2 home charger that delivers up to 50 amps of power (approximately 9.4 to 11.4 kWh). I researched this vehicle for many months and in October 2021, the dealership called me and offered me the EV only saying, 'What color do you want?" In Alabama, the only answer is Crimson, and their response was "Runaway Red". I come from a different perspective on this topic. I don't use the term car as I see these vehicles as computers on wheels. With that in mind or to my point, I come from a strong software view and was shocked and pleased to hear Hyundai/KIA purchased Boston Dynamics for future manufacturing, AI and software development for their vehicles. As many of my friends who own EV in Huntsville, AL (ID.4, Tesla, etc.) all of them have had recalls that have cost them weeks and weeks of downtime (batteries burning up, dashboards going blank, et.) mostly caused from software issues. I just went thru an uneventful recall myself that cost me an hour of my time. more to come...

[@teslaemperorwithoutclothes4169]

Really nice to see you guys crack 250 miles in this test. This is what I originally expected from the e-GMP cars, and I was disappointed with the Ioniq 5 tests. Sounds like you guys figured out Eco mode and were able to eke out the extra miles.

[@dokitops7389]

I have already seen these differences in tests in Europe (I'm from EU myself) the EV6 is just more efficient predominantly due to its aerodynamic shape.

[@MisterMoncivais]

Great video. Overall, my only (constructive) criticism is that we need to stop being apologetic for driving conditions. Wind exists, cold/hot weather exist, low ramps exist, people inside a car exist, so tests like yours ARE real, if I wanted 'perfect conditions' (which rarely exist) I would just be OK with theoretical. The best solution is to put a 'range' on the range estimate.

[@Antiguan_Dart]

I’ve started to ask myself on a road trip how long do I drive for before a break either to stretch my legs or to use the utilities? 2 hrs maybe 3 hrs?! After 3hrs have probably averaged 60 - 70 miles each hour given congestion and junctions and with no serious hold ups that’s 210 miles! If you’ve got a BEV with good fast charging performance a 20-30 minute break can have you back at 250 miles range till your next comfort break. We can get caught up on range. I’ve never run my 516 miles range diesel ICE vehicle to empty on a road trip without needing a comfort break before then! At which point I take the opportunity to fill up. UK Highway Code Guidance (2020) item 91 on page 28 Rules for drivers and motorcyclists even recommends a 15 minute break minimum after every two hours of driving.

T Just looked up the charger he used - they list .35 cents/kWh - the EV6 battery is 77kWh total so the charge from 0-100 percent would be around $27.

While I was thinking about getting an Ioniq 5 or EV6, the math just doesn’t add up over a hybrid if the sole purpose is to save money. My Elantra HEV gets 50-52 mpg and an ioniq 5 is at least 10k-15k more expensive. At 52 mpg the cost savings on EV over fuel would break even years later.

(I'm looking at a RWD GT-Line EV6, but am holding off to whether go for AWD because living in Utah (though I've driven several RWD ICE cars like Nisssan 370z and Subaru BRZ).

Funny that I have had vehicles with a rear wiper for 15 years and have never used it. It just sits there. I do put rainx on my windows in the winter though.

[@OpiofTexas]

Did you have no back seats in that car?

[@cheesun124]

I love this car. I test drove it and it felt really good. The technology is great. But the headroom leaves a lot to be desired. I hit my head on the way in and out. I'm 6'. I don't get it with these car manufacturers, are they really trying to complete with Tesla? Make it closer to the size of the Tesla Y and we've got a deal.

[@quangtuynguyen8907]

how about range test for EV6 GT line RWD?

[@pedroanzola9251]

Hey. Are the rear windows for this vehicle factory tinted?

Question: If your on a long trip for a week or two and you charge from 0 to 100% every time you run out of charge, How long do you have to wait for it to get back to 100% again?

[@GabrielEtsHokin]

FF to the end of the video and you can see the car predicting 58 minutes to go to 100%. But if you're on a road trip it makes more sense to limit charging to 80% and charge more frequently, as the last 20% takes as long as the first 80 on a fast charger.

[@waywardgeologist2520]

It's a great looking car and high on my list for purchase when they hit the used car market.

[@davidtolson7680]

How do you rate the EV6 vs Tesla Model Y ?

[@commanderroddi7742]

Isn't 254 mi close to the EPA rating?

[@aadilsarfani8408]

Thanks for the review. Was that passing maneuver automatically executed, or did you signal the car to lane change to the left and then the right?

[@y0uRF4t3]

You have to signal to make it do a lane change, it does not change lanes just b/c there is someone slow in your lane.

Hello Kyle, I have driven a few Hyundai Ionic Hybrids and they all had really hard seats. How were the seats in this Kia please? :)

[@timdrake4332]

Was was the cost to charge?

[@justinsmith4839]

How much do they charge to use the chargers there?

[@peterjorgensen3]

I'd love to see you try the Niro EV - I bet it could do a little bit more... Probably 3.7-4 mi/kwh vs 3.5 with the EV6.

[@grantmansell9664]

What's the cost to do a full charge?

[@SanjeevKGollapudi]

Hi Kyle, Can you please do or ask your friend to do range a highway range test on Hyundai Ioniq5 with 19" wheel. Since you got better climate now.. range number might improve??? Thanks!.

[@phshon]

You’re in America, why are we at 30 degrees Celsius?

[@whodat99991]

How long does it take to charge a Tesla at a charging station?

[@RandyJM21]

General question : whatever the range of an EV how many miles can you put on the clock before its a throw away , meaning putting new batteries is not worth the value of the car ? Im gonna say if you buy a good ice car meaning a model and brand known to last and you know how to drive meaning how not to abuse a car as far as operating temps and bad habits that kill life of main components like waiting for car to fully stop in reverse before slapping into drive and things I see people do in cars . I have never had any new car have anything fail in 100k pr even well into 100s except for a clutch on a car thay was stolen by somebody who didnt know or care how to use a clutch on a car over 100k , but yeah never had to replace even a clutch in a car including ones with V8S driven hard ( i think thats from not really using it much actually ) nor had a manual trans fail or an auto trans for that matter although I try to avoid owning them . But i feel like 200K is doable and you somewhat regularly see cars with 300k including people listing them for sale for 1000s of $ saying plenty of life left of which i would not risk , if you have a car with 300k with plenty of life left you should drive it and not expect somebody else to believe you unless they are a mechanic and take it 1/2 apart to see if that is so . But on average what is the ACTUAL LIFE of an avg EV . I realize like a phone or laptop and other products it will work but not hold charge as well so that means different things but even to say you keep an EV knowing it only has 50-60 % of range and have it along with another car and use it for shorter trips etc . What is the maximum life on avg if your willing to deal with loss of range as i figured but still use it to go shopping and shorter trips ( have another vehicle you would preserve life on by using ratty car same as ice cars , like use it to drive in NYC not. Eing afraid to rub paint with cabbies and pushy people and park on street etc) . It seems some people do for whatever reason end up with cars that need new or not new but " re conditioned " or used with less mileage new battery packs and there are scenarios where you have a nice vehicle but not worth anything because of battery / batteries crapping out so zero equity in car . It feels like EV owners dont at all think past 70k maybe 100k and replace their vehicles faster or similar to a german car owner for instance . I am more of a 10 year owner or longer even i have one care that is a 19 with 10K on odometer so god knows if the car doesnt outlive me at 57 years old at this pace . Evs being cheaper to run i might want to run more miles in fact . Yeah general question i know its broad and perhaps that could be for average tesla owner . Im gonna say normal driving 12-15 miles a year in NY with seasons . Is 200k a reasonable life span and is there any equity left at 200k or is it a part out if treated well enough ?

The sequential door locks are for occupant safety. keeps a bad guy from jumping in.

[@jamespaul2587]

But what if you want to let a bad girl in?

[@newscoulomb3705]

So about 10% more range than the Ioniq 5. Now I'm really curious about the RWD version.

[@djsabourin101]

Was Hvac on at all? I missed that if you stated it was.

[@jonaskristensen3066]

Matt watson from carwow did a 100-0 % at 70 mph. He did 273.9 miles

[@PeterGregg]

Doesn't anyone watch to the end?? I think you edited out if that last charger station gave more than the other charger did? I think the one was at 51 or 58? What did the end one rise up to?

[@StuartFriedman8888]

115, it's there in a quick view

[@MrKillerRC]

I wish I had a head of hair like this guy.

[@c130cc6]

Kia EV6 or Mustang Mach-E?

[@indrishahdorval3094]

Since this video, I really want mine. Thank you for the review 😊
