For anyone wondering why KIA is testing an EV rally car. Google the new WRC regulations. Seems like we might be getting a Group B type of rally scene, just not at dangerous, in the near future. More manufacturers are gonna join in on the fun. I’m excited to see what’s coming next!!!
yep, its bouncing all the time and making the rear bottom out all the time... probably needs stiffer springs, maybe they didnt account for the momentum of the car on jumps since its so heavy
If they make these purpose built and lightweight, then replace the siren with a PA sound system bumping tunes it'll be the first EV category I approve of. 🤣
It was hard to keep up with the “x class” but you were starting to beat the times of people in the regular rally class. It would be sick if they give a safari version of this car.
A huge part of spectating rallying in Ireland is the sound. Everyone loves to hear a mk2 escort with a Millington scream by. EVs humming past will ruin the experience
I know this car as a lot of power, but just the fact that I dont hear an engine rev, it takes half the thrill I normally feel seeing these runs. My brain processes it as if you are going slower 😂
the car looks cool, and i think its really cool of kia to let adam test this prototype. however i found it remarkably less interesting watching (and listening) to rally of an ev when compared to normal cars. removing the sound really does kill alot of the enjoyement for me
They need to put in one of those accelerator pedal modulating engine sound generators that play it through the sound system and add an external speaker for the spectators. You can select a sample of any engine you want it to sound like! 🔊
@@mitchellsteindler controlling it still hasnt been mastered. we'll know when those tight ebrake turns dont use the e brake anymore i imagine itll look a lot like a tank turn
@Innovative_Mic i don't think there's an ev with torque vector that even has a hand brake. I'm sure that is already possible. But you don't need torque vector to do that anyway. Just lock the rear motor.
Word. This was the tech that had me gassed up (pun intended) the most for EV's since the NSX used it back in 2016, but almost 10-years later almost nobody is using it, and my excitement for EV's is pretty much gone by now. Maybe/hopefully by 2034 "Torque Vectoring just kicked in yo" will be the new meme, at least 😅
At the start I was like meh, actually starting to get mad that they didn’t put a handbrake in a rally car, let alone havnt coded the ability to left foot brake… But more I watched it and watched Adam learn how the car needs to be driven really made me respect Adam and his skills. Kia should go for a season and get Adam in the car, think his suspension set up experience along with his feeling for weight transfer would help them develop the car with some proper suspension that’s clearly needed for such a heavy car!
I am not a Kia / Hyundai fan to be honest - but their efforts with the N line are pretty awesome. The Ionic 5N is IMO the only true "enthusiast" EV made to date - so seeing a "prototype" factory test rally car from an EV6 only shows that Hyundai / Kia is really trying to make EVs great for the enthusiast. Super neat-o.
Yea dude! Btw, their sister company Hyundai recently showcased a rolling lab that features an electric handbrake - it tells the rear motor to lock up, so it gives you the same effect as a normal handbrake
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS THING !!!! This is so quiet and makes hearing your co-pilot a breeze. It’s so awesome seeing it so quiet and still rippin it up out there. I want an ev rally car. That’s so sick !!
I would love to see Adam in a drift EV next time. And not like the Mustang SUV that Vaughn used on some events, but something more... intricate and "realistic"
Just give this thing the fake engine sounds. It’s stupid for EVs but wayyyyyyy better than a siren lol. Awesome content man, rally is a pretty good use case for EV sports cars.
Its almost impossible to tell what your wheels are doing on EV's. Combine instant torque, weirdest power curve, no noise, very heavy vehicle, it just doesn't work well. You'd need crazy programming to make the wheels give proper feedback, or even haptic feedback as crazy as that sounds.
@@Ayane13b look up stard projekt. It actually works great. Electric has many advantages over ICE rally cars. Look at the fastest cars up Pikes peak. It's an electric car
@@Ayane13b That's just wrong the Speedo is the wheel speed. Because electric motors and LCD screens are soo fast responding you can very much see a readout of wheel speed. But realy what needs to be developed for motorsports is a HUD that like a Rev Counter that is actually wheel speed.
Not a major issue considering Where It is Located. Weight Distribution and how it the momentum of the battery reacts is far more important than just total weight.
They have already started banning EV's from drag strips due to Lithium Fires and the tracks inability to contain them... I don't see EV's lasting long in the rally scene..
Dear Kia, either figure out how to add a mechanical sound (straight cut gears?) a sequential transmission w/clutch, left foot braking AND a handbrake or kindly stay out of Rally please 😊
FYI Cupra Born VZ is a thing. You have to be lucky as it's only available in certain markets. It's basically a spicey version of the VW ID.3 with 322hp JUST to the REAR WHEELs. A RWD Hot Hatch.
Hurry up and get KJ to the compound so he can drop a new lap record in the CRX
2 seconds slower no doubt... ur dreamin
That alarm might be the most annoying thing to hear while you’re driving….
Unless you just pretend you're in GTA being chased by cops. Then it could be fun.
Yeah really could’ve done without the siren

and make a course with Adam's skid
Everyone who is complaining about the siren. It for safety purposes. People can’t hear EV cars, and they might cross the road of the rally course. EV cars in the pikes peak also have to run sirens.
OBVIOUSLY
Thats crazy, I wish there was a solution so the car makes an engine sound to let you know its under load. Oh wait-
they only need the sound when backing up it’s a stupid law. Rally does on care about the car making a sound. Adam turned it on for some odd reason
Do like Tesla and have recorded engine sounds 😂
@@Kodi5204 The "stupid" reason is literally the comment you are replying to. It's a safety rule for driving the course, stupid.
@5:53 "Is the A/C on" is just straight ballin 🤣😂
Dont like suvs, or EVs, but you have to appreciate kias dedication to performance. Its a positive sign that kia lets engineers try stuff like this.
No. No it's not
i hope in future they think about a smaller battery pack, probably not neccessary to bring all the weight to the track for a few short laps.

“Sahmir you’re breaking the car” lmao🤣
Kj saying "Don't" will now be my inner thoughts when I go to do stupid stuff
I guess they’re tortured testing the coffee cup holder too. I just can’t believe that there’s a cup of coffee in a car that’s going off jumps.
all stanced out back der and debeadjulated in the front! fkn killed me
I hardly even notice the siren. Yall gotta chill.
You have low auxiliary brain functionality... just know you are in the minority with that
That has to be the most Texas guy of all time

19:24 electric engines you reckon 😂
Rally content from LZ is always a winner for me

Or like that Hyundai N treatment.

I know this car as a lot of power, but just the fact that I dont hear an engine rev, it takes half the thrill I normally feel seeing these runs. My brain processes it as if you are going slower 😂
This needs that VIRTUAL Hand Brake from the Hyundai RN24 prototype. It uses the rear electric motors to lock up the wheels.
the car looks cool, and i think its really cool of kia to let adam test this prototype. however i found it remarkably less interesting watching (and listening) to rally of an ev when compared to normal cars. removing the sound really does kill alot of the enjoyement for me
Man I love seeing Adam so happy with Collete, been here since the beginning of the webisodes. We love you Collete!
i cant tell if it just looks slow or if its the general lack of noise lmao
He was not exceptionally fast compared to the rally cars, but he kept up with a lot of them. The sound does make it harder to judge for sure.
Get KJ. Some sort of sponsorship and get him to the compound! The dudes a legend
They need to put in one of those accelerator pedal modulating engine sound generators that play it through the sound system and add an external speaker for the spectators. You can select a sample of any engine you want it to sound like! 🔊
Yes the refreshed EV6 GT is getting the virtual sound and gears system from ioniq 5 N.
Kyle Bentley, one hell of a name considering the industry he's involved in.
Technically, a factory ride ^^
@11:02 When you accidentally set your monitor to the widest resolution 💀😭
Still waiting for EVs to start using torque vectoring that's going to be as significant as 4WD/AWD was back in the killer B era.
Many high end ones do. But mid range EVs like these generally only have 2 motors, so no torque vector except by brakes.
that would be insane for ralley driving. youd be able to steer with throttle alone. especially good for wet gravel and dirt like this
@@mitchellsteindler controlling it still hasnt been mastered. we'll know when those tight ebrake turns dont use the e brake anymore i imagine itll look a lot like a tank turn

Why does it sound like you're being chased by the cops????

Kia has come such a long way in the past decade or two
Hope they make better long term EVs than their gas counterpart.
And they still have a long way to go
Please turn the annoying sirens off, they're very distracting and I can't think of any reason that they would be a good idea.
Drift skills definitely played a key role, that thing was on ice the whole time, very impressive

yea no, let's stick to engines.

Why are the cops chasing you 😂
Adam should invite KJ to the compound
When someone talks rally car. My mind immediately goes to Audi.
Interesting take, vintage groub b or modern?
@seanrose3951 vintage 1980's era.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS THING !!!! This is so quiet and makes hearing your co-pilot a breeze. It’s so awesome seeing it so quiet and still rippin it up out there. I want an ev rally car. That’s so sick !!
The sounds from the elctric motors makes it sound like youre being chased by cops.
its not the motors, its a siren to alert spectators that a vehicle is coming since the motor is so quiet.
Do collab with Kalle Rovanperä. Would be sick
ugh, the siren...
Thank you for dropping your skin care routine!! Had a blast watching you drive
With the siren it sounds like a very aggressive ambulance drivers team lol
Clicked asap.... even if it's an EV video.
Been subscribed to Adam for a decade. When I saw the new video was the glorious EV6 I clicked ASAP. Awesome car.
Exact opposite. Waited until I watched everything else on TH-cam first.
Keep killing the game lzmfg and drift HQ crews!
I have no more cigarette
What happens when someone crashes a rally ev and the battery explodes?
It’s like a freedom factory rally with the sirens lol
I wish you posted times. It would be cool to see your progress through different laps and how you stacked up against the rest of the field.
Oddly sus since every other video has had times. Guess Kia didn’t want to pay to have people talk shit about how a stock Kia is slow on dirt.
19:14 debeadulated😂😂 new favorite word
Kias just come with their own siren now because they figure its probably already been stolen anyway 🤷♂
Siren ruins the video unfortunately
The Polestar 2 performance would be an amazing EV rally car, ohlins dampers and good brakes
Please never have a siren again
I would love to see Adam in a drift EV next time. And not like the Mustang SUV that Vaughn used on some events, but something more... intricate and "realistic"
Id rather run a gas car any day instead of listening to that siren
The siren each run had me cracking up
Just give this thing the fake engine sounds. It’s stupid for EVs but wayyyyyyy better than a siren lol. Awesome content man, rally is a pretty good use case for EV sports cars.
Having no sound just doesn’t entertain me at all.
Some proper long travel rally suspension(a set of reiger coilovers) and this car would be an animal
Heck yeah, more rally content!
I know that it was slippery out, but I was wondering did it feel heavy and for an EV is it hard to tell what the wheels are doing(wheel speed wise)?

Hey Adam,
How bad does the weight of the EV batteries effect rally driving?
Not a major issue considering Where It is Located. Weight Distribution and how it the momentum of the battery reacts is far more important than just total weight.
its hilarious that you have to run the siren while racing XD
They have already started banning EV's from drag strips due to Lithium Fires and the tracks inability to contain them... I don't see EV's lasting long in the rally scene..
The rally videos hit.
Respect to Kia
One of the most annoying videos so far
That siren is hilarious!!!!
It doesn’t hit the same, need all the noise from a combustion engine.
what kind of rally car has electric windows -widescreen -cup holder and a multifunctional steering wheel
1:40 .... It's a rental just don't lift... EVER
Love when KJ is on.
Yeahhhh the siren mightve been the wrong thing for adams ADD 😅 prob the most annoying thing to hear while your driving...
it is weird seeing ev6 do that when i drive it to work every day
Pretty cool. Why couldn't throw a hand brake in it though?
Dear Kia, either figure out how to add a mechanical sound (straight cut gears?) a sequential transmission w/clutch, left foot braking AND a handbrake or kindly stay out of Rally please 😊

2. If adam one day signs with KIA for rally, I will be elated with joy. I hate kia but the sport needs the exposure.
