First Long Road Trip in the Kia EV6 | This EV continues to impress!

[@alanrichins2382]

You mean to say that the sound system is affected by hundreds of pounds of stuff packed around all the rear speakers? I’m shocked.

[@angelfromjtown]

Found your channel a week ago, since then you’ve convinced me to go electric ! I sold my 2021 full size Ford Bronco for more than I paid , and used the extra cash towards my new Kia EV6 wind in steel gray. Just drove it home today, just wanted to say thank you for your amazing channel!

[@EVandChill]

That’s great Angel! Congrats on the EV6! I hope you love talking to people because that car gains soooo much attention 😃

[@revirdkcalb]

Damn. In a week? You're not messing around. I admire that. I would've watched reviews and do research for like at least 3 months, before oulling the trigger.

[@tominftlthomasp3559]

You made a good choice. The EV6 is rated pretty good. You shouldn’t have the quality issues of a Tesla. Most of your charging will probably be done with a level 2 charger, at home . You really don’t need the fast charging for day to day driving. It’s nice to have though for unexpected trips etc.

[@jimross623]

Comfortability is not a word! Try comfort. 😊 then you’ll be comfortable.

[@Mildern]

You don't have to touch your phone at all. Using android auto or carplay, open the EA ON THE CAR SCREEN... it will recognize that you're at a station based on your location...then you select the cable number you're going to use and swipe to start... you then get out, plug in and it starts up and goes.

[@EVandChill]

Thanks John. Fully aware however I have had less than a 50% success rate of that working. It’s worked everytime if I manually go through the app so I’ll stick with that for right now.

[@Mildern]

@@EVandChill Maybe that's related to the carplay problems you were having ? (which could also be your usb cord/port). I've had 100% success rate on android auto doing it that way. Oh well, whatever works. Just passing it along since most people seem to not know you can do that. Saves some time standing out in the heat or rain.

[@EVandChill]

Thanks for the info John! I just received an ECU update so I’ll have to try it again.

[@Zazu2You]

Great information!! Enjoy Rhode Island!! My furthest EV trip was in my 2015 LEAF 24kWh. 150 miles roundtrip. 1 stop each way to charge. I have a 2017 Volt now. We have a 2022 Maverick XLT Hybrid, as well. Very nice vehicle!! Keeping an eye on the EV World, waiting for the $25K Tesla. Love your videos. You are too funny. Keep up the good work!! Cheers!!

Thanks Paul 😃

We just finished a 10,000 plus mile, 6 week road trip in our Ioniq 5. Starting the trip like you, I thought that I would just use the CarPlay and Apple Maps for navigation, but because the turn by turn directions show up in our heads up display I decided to use the Hyundai on board navigation (same as the Kia) instead and grew to prefer it over the Apple. Here are the things that I like. First you have a segment on the side of the screen that shows the three next navigation points and the miles ahead. It's great to know a few moves ahead. There are three tabs on the top of that. Detailed, which shows the navigational points along the route that are non essential. Rest Stops, which shows all the rest stops on the route, really good to know. The last tab is simple, which tells you the next three instructions that you need to know. On this part of the screen there is a light gray area on the side. If you press on that the navigation instruction screen moves left and you have a small screen that you can scroll up and down. It has many things. My favorite is the compass screen that has an analog compass, with the longitude and latitude and the elevation in real time, it also has a clock screen, a screen that shows the state of charge, range and distance to the nearest charger, and a screen that shows the current music source playing in your car including Apple Music. As far as programing it. I found that asking it to find any location without typing was a least as good and Apple and typing in a point of interest worked 99% of the time. The only thing I like better about Car Play is being able to click on a link and have it go right to navigation. Love your content, keep it up.

[@ultratodd]

Hi Shannon. You asked what the longest road trip people have taken in their EV. Last year, just before Labor Day, my wife and I drove from San Jose CA to San Diego for a family function. After that was over, we left San Diego and drove to Manchester TN for a running race I had entered (A Race For The Ages). When the race was over, we drove back to San Jose. Total mileage was a bit over 5000 miles. I drove at or a little above the speed limit the entire distance. For some reason, Electrify America had free charging for us the week of Labor Day so energy cost was around $100 for the trip. There was a couple of hiccups. Oklahoma has chargers called "Francis". I wasn't impressed. EA had removed one station that I had planned to stop at. Had to use a level 2 charger to get to a DC Fast Charger the next day. That fiasco was mostly my fault. Other than that, it was a great way to drive across the country. Your comment about the lack of charging infrastructure for a trip to Maine is still appropriate for some other parts of the country. But, those areas are becoming fewer and fewer. And unlike ICE vehicles, if there's a plug, there's a good chance we can get enough charge to continue the trip. My maximum range in my rear wheel drive premium extended range Mach E on any trip I've taken is just over 330 miles (EPA 300). I've driven it up to 320 miles and still had 15 miles on the range estimate. (A round trip from home so no, it wasn't all downhill with the wind behind me) Glad you're getting more subscribers. You deserve a lot of credit for putting out your own perspective on driving an EV.

[@EVandChill]

Hey Todd, thanks for the read out. $100 for 5000mi is awesome! Charging infra is def getting better. The experience I have had with EA since owning the EV6 could not have been better so I can’t wait for them to fully expand everywhere. Thanks for chiming in!

[@michaeldevitt7506]

Last weekend our family of four took our EV6 1,200 miles from Boise, Idaho to South Lake Tahoe. Really great road trip car. We had some issues with EA chargers in Winnemucca, NV, but all of the others were great, and we had a blast as a family.

[@EVandChill]

Nice! The EV6 is such a great road trip car!

[@briannielsbergh]

That charge delays must be something in the American charging stations, here in Denmark it starts instantly every time.

[@robertellis6066]

Took my Tesla MY about 1,700 miles from south of Birmingham, Al to northern Indiana, back through Kentucky across Tennessee to Gatlinburg, Tn. We then went south to Chattanooga, Tn and home. Zero issues and no problem charging. Great trip.

[@youngchirp12]

Man I love a Tesla I'm thinking about selling my ev6 for brand new Tesla model y with the newer Tesla's you get charger not just Tesla charging stations but with the EA station as well cuz I have that adapter

[@proudvirginian]

Girl, lemme tell ya what....Three weeks before I took delivery of my ID4, I decided I should probably drive one. I went to the dealer I was having mine delivered to and took one on an eight mile test drive. Not only my first ID4 drive, but **my first ever EV drive.** Fast forward to getting my car. I took delivery on a Friday and the following Friday I road tripped it to southern North Carolina. 424 miles. Jumped into EV life with both feet charged. 9 months and 14k miles later and I'd drive it across the country without any worries. 10% battery at the charger is the norm. And your small peeve is mine too. If they'd get rid of that app to charge necessity I'd be even better off. Plug and play is the way. And as much as I dearly love my ID4, they really are going to have to step up range and charging speed if I'm going to buy another VW. I road trip the snot out of mine and other makers are already WAY out pacing mine.

[@EddieHaskell97]

I live in a southwestern suburb of Cleveland, Ohio. I've taken my MME to Chicago, Detroit, NYC, and Ellicotville NY for a sub-zero ski weekend. Electrify America (and even EVGo) do a great job for those trips! NYC was the furthest for us 462 miles each way with a 50 minute McDonald's recharge midway. You're absolutely correct about some CCS charging deserts prohibiting non-Tesla travel. West Virginia is a dead zone with zero DCFCs! They had ONE single DCFC (Astorg Auto), but it's broken now. So until Elon opens up the three Superchargers along I-77, the MME isn't going to Myrtle Beach anytime soon... That EV6 is amazing, and your charge rate was stellar! Mine maxes out at 150 (and almost never stays there very long) so I was thrilled to see your next gen Kia doing that much better! Cool video, and I hope the rest of your trip is/was fantastic for you all!

Tech Package is worth every penny I have a black EV6 Wind with Tech Package and love the safety features, that is why I went with the EV6 versus Ioniq 5.

[@ccbbs]

I've also noticed some issues with Apple Car Play. On a 2 hour trip to Maine, carplay just shut down. The port seemed like it was totally dead and nothing we did worked (we were on the road and could not stop at that time). The radio worked fine, just no connection via the USB port. After a quick stop to shop (20 minutes), we returned to the car and it was working fine. I've only seen it that once. Has anyone else seen it?

Shannon, thanks for taking the EV6 Wind AWD with Tech Package on a road trip. I’m still getting an EV6 but decided to get the GT Line RWD. I don’t need the AWD in San Antonio, Texas and the extra miles are nice with RWD. Plus, Kia is smart in that from all my research you can’t get the Tech Package in the Wind RWD. The MSRP is about the same. I’ll continue to be a Subscriber just because 😏

The nav took me a long time to adjust to but it is working well now since the latest update so you may want to try it. Never had a probelm with Apple CarPlay but only have 2100 miles on the car and don't use CarPlay a lot with it.

[@Visualhead_Spacer]

from what I have been seeing, the sound system is a software issue. People have used 3rd party app to boost the audio output which helped fixed the issue. I'm sure KIA will fix this down the line.

Good one,,,, couple thoughts,, electrify America’s may be 18.5 seconds faster with just tap ,not app.,,I plan to go next weekend from Long Island to Portsmouth new hamp. With stops at Newport ,and Boston,, and in my planning as far as Portland me,looks real easy as far as charging north of that not sure Portland 4 years ago was amazing full of charging spots ,

[@DavidS-ev4er]

I have done somewhat the reverse trip on 2 separate occasions with our AWD EV6. Our trip takes us from NYC to our Va beach home stopping at the same Wawa in New Castle De, as you did. to charge up to 80%. They have both 150 and 350 chargers.. I have used both the 350 and 150, surprisingly did not save much time over the two possibly a couple minutes at most, though in honesty I was starting at more than 55% on arrival. Just a side note going down on the first leg I was getting 4 kWh/mi second leg 3.8 kWh/mi with air and cooling seats, could have made it easily to my destination of 280 mi though my wife was not wanting to try it. One side note we must of hit the same storm you did with the hail and torrential downpours on the NJ Turnpike . I must say the car handled admirably where as many cars turned onto the shoulder of the Turnpike, we were able to continue with full control and safely deal with the rain and road conditions while having full control of the vehicle at all times . However my range did suffer on this return trip dropping to 3.4 kWh on our second leg home while using AWD in Ipedal and climate control. Just a small suggestion, download your EA app into your apple or google wallet, makes the transaction with EA EVSE units more seamless. Just tapping RFID reader from apple wallet and the system is up and running in less than 30 seconds. True not as seamless as the Tesla, but it works. Have a great time on your road trip hope to see more videos on your adventure home.

[@EVandChill]

Thanks David! Interesting comment about the 350 vs 150 kW charging experience. The EV6 has thoroughly surprised us as to how efficient it is!

[@fredkitchener615]

Sounds like a fun trip. You asked about other road trips. We drove our MME GT from Boise, Idaho to the Bay Area, then down to Santa Monica, and back to Boise. 2,200 miles. 16 DCFC's (14 of which were are EA chargers with no issues). Cost was less than 1/2 of gasoline in our other car (Audi Q3). Fantastic trip and MME GT was so fun to drive. BlueCruise did great - at one point drove 2 hours on rural Interstate without touching pedals or steering wheel. Averaged 2.8 miles/kWh (which is just about EPA highway rating) going an average of between 70-75 mph. Enjoy!

I have the EV6 First Edition (numbered 723), and my paperwork list the car as a Wind/GT- Line. The body is a Wind with all the options you can get in a GT- Line, sunroof and all the goodies. But because the body is a Wind the suspension is not as stiff as the GT-Line and I missed that, so I might have to go after market for that stiffer ride. Other than the soft ride, I love this car and will get the electrified Stinger when they come out in a few years if they're as good as my EV6 First Edition.

Greetings from central RI, where, for about 6 weeks, my Yacht Blue "SUNPOWER" GT-Line AWD has been happily bypassing gas stations and gets charged for FREE at two state-sponsored ChargePoint locations just off of RI I-95 (exits 1 & 10). Thank you for the video, agree with most of what you said, but please be more specific about where the charging infrastructure is lacking en route to Maine. I'm sure metro Boston has a ton of "level 3" chargers, so are you referring to Maine itself being a little sparse? I'll be doing some traveling this summer so need to know! Ty, and safe travels y'all!

[@EVandChill]

Hello! We went to Montpelier, VT first and cut through back to Bar Harbor, ME. Had we stuck to I-95 to ME, we’d probably be fine in the EV6 but there’s a lack of third party DCFC along the route we took whereas we had no issues with Superchargers. If you stick to 95, you’ll be fine.

There's still some things the Tesla just gets right over the Kia. It was definitely on my short list but the Model Y has more interior space, more usable range and that charging network is number 1.

And there are some things the Kia just gets right over the Tesla. I considered a Model Y but the Kia has more than enough interior space for a family, Australian market EV6s have more range than similarly priced Model Ys, and the Tesla charging network in my region is no better. Then there is the EV6's far better ride quality, important for carsick kids. A proper roof and ventilated seats so the family isn't constantly baking under a relentless sun in a hot climate. Quieter driving. Much longer warranty. I like the EV6 style better, though that is subjective. Different priorities.

[@bubbalo3388]

An EV is not something I would want to take on a roadtrip that requires charging between point A and B. I don't want to have to plan on locating a charging station and waist time sitting. Especially in the middle of the night. Gas stations are everywhere unlike EV charging stations which aren't everywhere and then if the chargers are occupied you may be waiting a long while or the stations may be out of order. Also if you run out of gas you can walk or Uber to a gas station and get a gallon of gas or call AAA to bring you some. With an EV you have to call a tow truck. With that said. I think an EV is a great daily driver or for small short trips to areas you are familiar with. A plug in hybrid with at least a 50 mile all electric range would be the perfect vehicle. You have the best of both worlds. 50 miles all electric would be enough to fit most peoples daily needs and barely use any gas. For road trips you are not bound to the pains of planning your trip around charging your vehicle.
