#KIA #Tesla #EV - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Ten years ago I thought these EV’s were a fad. Five years ago, I realized that they were for real, but figured I’d never drive much less own one. Now, I’ve driven one, and if my wife gets her way, which she somehow normally does, we will be owning one …
Poor sob
he didn't use GT launch mode on the EV6GT hence the poor start, it runs a faster quarter mile then model y. these guys are rather clueless, and then they downplayed the fact that the EV6 competes MORE closely with the model Y, obviously., yet they still attempted to compare pricing, what a stupid futile effort, the hyundai ioniq 6 sedan competes with the model 3 not the EV6 massive hatch/SUV.
I sold my 95 tt Supra after getting one.
Owning one changes things.
Watch "who killed the electric car" on youtube for some more clarity..
@@roboticvenom1935 He did use GT mode. Try actually watching the video next time.
Exactly, me too….I’ve now owned my Model Y for a month now. Even took it on a short road trip. Two years ago I would have laughed if you told me I’d be driving one.
Kia really just woke up one day and decided to design a sick looking ev
As long as you don't look at the back of it that s*** is ugly as hell The front of the EV6 is pretty this mean
It's isn't a random thought
Good fun video guys. I have a GT and it is such a joy to own. Don't hit the GT button much (actually, only to impress / shock my buddies) but the build quality, charging speed and practicality are off the charts. Turning circle isn't great with the massive wheels & tyres, but apart from that it is a truly amazing vehicle.
What about the range?
@@brandoncarter2708I have one and the range is not nearly as low as the EPA rating of 206 miles. This evening I took a short drive, just charged it to 80%, and the projected range reading said 185 miles which equates to 231 miles on a full charge. It keeps getting better the more I drive it. I am getting 3.2-3.5 miles per kilowatt hour on every drive and that includes freeway driving. That equates to 240-270 miles range and I expect the projected range will reflect that shortly. I drive mostly in Normal mode which is around 430hp and is plenty fast. I use GT mode sparingly because it’s truly too darn fast for most driving. I never use Eco mode. The car is fantastic, I love it.
Yeah, you don't need to be stuck buying a Tesla anymore, there's better and cheaper EVs like this one out there.
@@stockey not cheaper tho..
@@stockeyhonestly tesla only holds it's charging network as a advantage. As other manufactures build out their networks, I would take other manufacturers in a heartbeat.
I'm a tesla fan/owner and I'm glad to see other car makers catch up (even though hyundai/kia seems to be the only one). Competition is good for everybody
Yup. It's needed. Tesla has said it over and over they can't do it alone.
Super fun guys. I always have a smile on my face watching these videos. Thanks so much for doing them
SUGGESTION: For the brake test it would be informative to record the brake lights and then provide the difference in milliseconds from when the lights turn on. Knowing the speed it's easy to translate into distance and do the compensation. At 60 mph the difference measured (94.6 inches) corresponds to a difference of 90 ms.
wish i could give you multiple "thumbs up"
Great video! We need more EV to gas/diesel races. Most people don’t realize how CRAZY quick these EVs are. Would be great to also include Plaid if you can get some super cars 😂
Go watch Hagerty videos... They raced Plaid versus some cars....The lucid air sapphire beat it.
At $250,000 for the Lucid, it should.

@@dvader3263 they're way smaller then tesla as a company.
@@roboticvenom1935 I believe he did but in any case, the M3P does 0-60 in 3.1s and EV6GT in 3.4s so EV6 would still lose. As for size, EV6 is between M3 and MY. It is smaller than MY in interior AND in cargo space. It's also shorter. MYP does 0-60 in 3.5s so very close and more about driver than car. Finally, the EV6GT range is just 206 miles range which is pathetic. The M3P has 315 mile range and MYP 303 mile range, so they're don't only have great performance but are also super useful for every day use and roadtrips. Having had ~200 mile EV, I would not recommend taking long road trips is only 206 mile range. That extra 100+ mile range makes a huge difference.
I think you should try the ev6 in level 1 or 0, the pedal response is dampened when at 3.. I have had an ev6 for a year (not a gt) Nice test though. Thanks guys!
completely agree - you gotta know how to drive this car fast as well

@@roboticvenom1935 There is no launch mode
@@galactictomato1434 he may be in GT mode, however the EV6 also has several drive modes that are in relation to the regen. Owning an EV6, granted not the GT I can tell you the vehicle is slower when the regen level is higher. To be optimal, you would be in level 0 regen and reduce the traction control as well for quickest acceleration.
The editing in this video was top notch. Thank you so much 🙏🙏
Love these drag races, awesome job fellas!
I loved Roman cheating out there. That was pretty funny 😆
The Model Y would have lost both races.

@@galactictomato1434he’d rather just keep crying about it
Not running a 12s which the ev6 ran my model y runs 11.8s all day
I've enjoyed seeing the evolution, maturity, unyielding enthusiasm, and effort TFL puts into making these. Thank you!
When you did the regen test, did you put the M3P into track-race mode? That actually uses the most aggressive regen.
I still remember the testing of the Subaru SVX noted for its bad brakes doing a test 60-0 mph in 99 feet. I never figured out how that was bad.
Great races & content guys! Thanks for sharing. Roman got smoked for sure 😂🤪🤣😜
Billy D
Love these episodes, thanks guys!
You are most welcome
Good information; Nice test!
159m for EV6 at 83% (poss 170m);
259m for M3P at 83%;
149m for EV6 at 76%;
243m for M3P at 78%.

@@roboticvenom1935 he did use GT mode. Spam more fanboy
The Model Y is more appropriate for a drag race with the EV6 GT, presonally, i would take a Kia way before a Tesla, Kia has got a great build quality and warranty also cheaper in price compared to a Model Y.
Was going to buy a Kia EV6 GT but at $64,000 vs the model 3 performance at $52,000 and then an additional $7500 tax rebate the decision was easy, the Kia is nice but not worth $20,000 more then the Model 3 performance
Tesla is lowering their car price, because they can't sell their cars, they loose money on each cars, they won't able to keep that.
@@stockey they are lowering they’re prices because the refresh is due out shortly and much of price change is so people can take advantage of the rebate, model 3 must be under $55k for the tax rebate.
Loved that. That was the race all EV6GT owners wanted to see :-)
Apparently regen in the GT can generate up to 0.6 G deceleration force. 350kw being sucked back up into the battery…

@@roboticvenom1935 he did use GT mode. How many time are you going to copy and paste your fake news comment 😂
@@roboticvenom1935 The main reason this test is purely for entertainment and not definitive, it is simply a sample of one. It means nothing. It needs lots more runs. Drivers should swap cars too.
There is no reference to "launch mode" (launch control) in the manual I have searched. Essentially it is always there - makes sense, because max torque can be delivered at 0 RPM in an EV, unlike an ICE where you have to have some revs (and dump the clutch)
At least they knew about max power preparation - most reviewers don't.
Hopefully we all know the GT can go quicker than shown here - i've seen 0-60 runs at 3.3 seconds and 1/4 miles at 11.7
@@roboticvenom1935 I have a GT. Gt mode is GT mode. There is no separate 'GT launch mode'
Roman..Roman.
Normally one would say, _"I never expected THAT ending."_ In YOUR case though, we can say, _"I never expected THAT BEGINNING."_
That was hilarious!
Roman says thanks!
I just did an 11.44 @119mph in my EV6 GT at Orlando speed world dragway last night.
I am getting 11.6 on winter tires easily on summer I 11.5
Full heated Model 3 Performance does 11.1-11.3 on the 1/4Mile ✌️
@@klauskdk4125 I wish they compared the model y performance which the ev6 compete with. I promise it will be a whole different story✌🏿
@@klauskdk4125 i didn't know about battery preconditioning. I should have done it on my run.
The Tesla Model 3 performance is not a faster car than the Kia ev6 gt. For some reason these drag race times on TH-cam have been crap. 12 flag in an ev6 gt is pathetic, I have seen 11.4 in an ev6 gt. Best time I have seen in a Model 3 performance is 11.6
I like the "re-gen" test the most.... I wish you had an OBD-2 monitor that said exactly how much kWh you re-gened off that.
👏👏👏 LOVE THE SHOW 👏👏👏 ... HAVE A BEAUTIFUL THURSDAY EVERYONE ✌️
Cool test guys! The PZero are better tires, the braking test shows how great the GT is built and upgraded
In the Tesla, you can just tap the miles, next to the batter icon, and it’ll toggle between mi and %. No need to go in the menu setting
Lol exactly

@@roboticvenom1935lots of crying.
That miles on the % toggle is garbage. That is the EPA mileage and complete BS. To get tge actual mileage, you have to go to the Energy app and look at the 30 minutes average. That's always lower and more realistic. I don't know why Tesla even displays the EPA estimated distance when it has the more accurate distance from the Energy app. Just display that.
I can say this no ev can replace the sound that engines make. That is music to my ears
Thank you and anytime you need another model 3 p to test out I’m just down the road!
Tommmys reaction time was better on the launch and likely made a decent difference.
For the video but their timers confirmed the time and trap speed.

@@roboticvenom1935 keep spamming bro. He did use GT mode.
Tell Roman a hand controlled start is done this way : at 3 - hands are open, and down at sides - then hands are raised to horizontal for 2, followed by hands are raised overhead for 3
GO is sounded as the hands are then brought down with alacrity, concurrently. Easy for an acurate countdown and launch. Kia EV6 GT is my choice and fave...way,way nicer inside, and better built than those lesser brands you featured today.
Thanks for the heads-up!
There's gotta be some way at least to resurface the huge cracks in that runway with some crack sealant - limit the squeaks and rattles that hitting those bumps at high speed are causing on every run. When I used to drag race, there was nothing worse for the car's interior than going down a poorly paved/sealed surface
The Vette embarrassing losing drag race was just as bad as when the Buick V6 grand national was faster than the Vette's at the time with massive cubic inches and liters bigger than a caterpillar engine.
That was good fun. Thanks!
The Ioniq6 N is better competitor to the Model 3 Performance.
You should do an EV6 GT vs Model Y performance, since those are more "rivals" than the 3 and EV6 🎉
Indeed, the Model Y is the real competitor to the EV6.
Why didn't you go with track mode on the model 3 performance?

track mode is a little slower than sport at the low end.
Loved that 🏁
I love my EV6! I have had it for six months now and will never go back to a gas powered car again! Only thing that sucks is it doesn’t qualify for the $7,500 tax credit.
Great new competitions
EV6 ❤
Tommy messed up he was in the Tesla, and said his car had less power than the Tesla.
Great video gents! Both fun and yet informative! As a Vette owner I always thought ICE is the ultimate until I see how EV tech has becoming. Can't wait to see how EV going to become in next 10+ years
Did u pressed the GT /boost button on the Kia?
If you slow it down, the Kia just edged the Tesla in the roll race.
Well it seems that way because the camera was on the Kia's side so the kia appeared bigger and appeared to finish first.
@@thedumbconspirator4956At 6:52-6.53 slowed down it looks like the back of the Kia is ahead, but it hardly matters - they’re extremely close. I think in any real-world encounter between the two whoever hits the accelerator first will take it.
You should test both the koa and tesla with and without traction control etc. do several races and SHOW them so we can really see the result of several races..
Love that there is truly a competitor to the M3P performance wise, but the range is abysmal, imagine colder temperatures in winter plus driving ~80mph, which is more realistic in CA, you would get be lucky to get 160 miles per charge, M3P in these conditions would at least give an additional 50 miles or more.
Driving the speed limit or even 5 below (so around 60-65). Range is fine and will get the full 200 miles if you aren't going through several inclines. A lot of GT drivers are reporting 240+ with mixed highway and city
You should test coasting length
People keep saying Tesla Model 3 Performance has these weak HP/T numbers (vs other EVs) but it beats things that have much higher listed numbers, like the Kia EV6 GT and the Mach E GT, and it loses to things like the 140k Audi E Tron by like 1/2 a car length, so either Tesla is understating, others are over stating, or Tesla just has much better use of the power. Not sure which it is.
I've been waiting for this race forever. I would have preferred the model Y because I like apples to apples for competition. Now quick question: What does the high altitude have to do with the influence on the cars?
This was rigged race. I suspect this is NOT a model Y P. There is NO track mode which is much faster for variety of reasons.
@@johnross6314we know it’s not a model Y performance but good observation nonetheless.
Tommy. Is there a reason you guys didn’t use Track mode?
Because it makes it slower.
i shed a tear when i saw the range estimate at 83%
C8 yes!
It’s hard to tell which electric vehicle is faster the Kia EV six GT versus the Tesla model three performance but I think they’re both faster. And Roman has the old-school Corvette.
good selection of used Model 3s (including Performance) these days, all with good FSD computer hardware included
I saw one nearby for 35K yesterday. But it's so hard to pull the trigger now with the car everywhere.
@@jghall00 This will be fun to see mass production bring down prices even more, and hopefully for Cybertruck as well in the not-to-distant future. Rental cars too, some even have FSD enabled already.
@@CrumResearch Not a fan of FSD, as I think Tesla has grossly overstated its capability. But agree about mass production lowering prices. I consistently see people complain about EV prices. But car prices in general are high and mass production takes time to reduce costs. I remember thinking I so cool when I bought a 19-inch CRT, now we have 34" ultra-wide flat. People are impatient or lack historical awareness. Can't wait for the day when I can replace my Expedition with an EV that can tow my camper.
@@jghall00 Check out recent evolution of FSD. Lookin' good, especially safe and good at seeing and avoiding all sorts of obstacles. It's happenin' and FSD should be a good proof of concept for other projects to compete, even open source like Openpilot.

Need overhead drone shot for second race to see if it's a tie, basically down to the driver.
MY3 is slightly faster because its lighter in weight. EV6 GT also has bigger wheels, much heavier. Its more of a wagon/hatch than a sedan.
Another fun day at the office!
Regen test means a lot!!
The EV6 GT is traction limited. I swapped my tires to PSAS4's and ran 11.60@118.xx per Dragy. In 32*f weather. With the battery not even at optimal temp. You leave a lot on the table with the stock tires, it seems.
Did you use trackmode for the tesla? I remember trackmode regen is even stronger
Nope. They are cheater haters again. Nor did they condition the battery like the Korean Kia.
I suspect their Tesla is NOT a real model Y
They also had the regen set wrong on model Y. These guys over history have rigged tests across the old man’s TFL channels.
You guys have such fun wile working🤠
I'm waiting for the 2023 Elantra N vs Type-R with Paul.
Why do you guys say you get tunnel vision? I keep hearing that. Is that because you’re sitting in a car in a leaned back position? I do low 10’s on my Busa and I don’t get tunnel vision at all
Should have brought an E-Ray... 😀
Gt mode puts all the power to the rear wheels defeats the awd so unfair race
The Kia did better than I expected. It's fantastic to finally see a few EVs that can legitimately compete with Tesla on multiple points.
Now if only EA could keep its CCS fast charging stations working, and not bricking vehicles from time to time. :(
Fake test.
@@johnross6314 Fake?
You guys should try to find an EV-converted 'Vette to race against.
3's most aggressive regen is in track mode. its .3g+ over .2..

And why would you use track mode for the street, EV6 has this for its normal mode and has proper buttons and paddles on the steering wheel
@Robotic Venom it was a model 3, not y. Real world is real world. Launch mode is a useless redlight to redlight.
@Robotic Venom so track mode is a no but launch control is ok? Dude stop white knighting hyundai. It is fair normal user stuff we saw here. I own a hyundai, their evs are great but not Tesla level. Not to mention, the tesla is over 4 years old at this point..
@@jpmkivhe’s a crybaby
EV 6 GT= 9K more with no tax incentive. Non starter.
The Tesla Regen gets stronger the lower the battery gets. My model Y typically shows limited Regen above 80% state of charge.
Facts they made a 576 hp kia to barely beat a model y performance years later model y been doing this for years wait till Elon puts the power bump on the model y
@@letdothisman1139 These cars are so fast, that to be quite frank, they are borderline too fast for the average driver. I’ve startled my father in law, my wife, and even my dog looked at me once when I was accelerating through a yellow light. Even in “chill mode” the car is faster than many ICE vehicles. 10ths of second are drag strip bragging rights.
Hey guys I just seen the E V6 Kia in person and it's an incredible car a little sticker shock 63000 but between Hyundai and Kia they are catching up and building really nice cars
63k for manual seats and a sub 200 mile range.
@@devinmurray5280 And you think that Tesla model 3 Performance actually gets 315 miles as stated on paper? Dream on... Real world is also in the low 200s for the M3P, charges slower, not built as well and is an appliance on wheels.
If anything, the price for a better built car like the KIA GT is more justifiable than the kit cars tesla offers.
We own a M3P, and Model X. No strangers to Tesla, just not the typical petty tesla fan boy owners here. Just keeping it straight and real.
@@alohaduck3530 real world on the highway locked 70 is about 280 max (with the same useable battery size). Also handles much better as it weighs about 500-800lbs less. Realistically I expect about 250 driving normal (I own one lol).
Chargers slower…if you can find a charger that supports the Kias speeds. Tesla chargers are just beginning to make the EV charging outside tesla not a pain for a trip. They don’t support those high high of speeds currently.
It’s not being a fanboy in any regard. The model 3 performance is also 9k less expensive. The little straw man case isn’t helping you either.
Yes the 63k is justified if you ignore the massively lower range than the competition and manual seats in a 63k crossover lol. Kia is trying, but they aren’t quite there yet.
@@devinmurray5280 , You must be a slow driver. Which is fine, but as a M3P owner myself as well who drives not pegged at the speed limit, I'm in the low 200s.
Both the M3P and GT would be making the same stops to charge, real world, unless you treat your M3P like an LFP and beat the battery from 100-0%.
The greater point that you're missing is that the GT has a smaller battery, heavier, larger 21x wheels and yet it's still able to dial in ~220 miles and some change.
When considering that normal EV habits is to keep it within 80-20%, counting beans between the GT and MYPs (even M3Ps) range is irrelevant as the bigger point here should be obvious.
Most enthusiasts would take faster charging speeds over some range any day. To each their own, but as a fellow tesla owner, please don't try to glorify our poorly built appliance on wheels like it's anything spectacular. Let's keep it real.
Tesla does have the best UI, driving dynamics and infrastructure, but other EVs also have good driving dynamics... Just not the other two with the UI and overall infrastructure, however; with the new tesla chargers w/ CSS becoming more available, it's helping with the poor CCS infrastructure currently.
@devonmurray5280 Oh boy! Seeing as I just dumped the worst vehicle I've ever owned in over 30 years - Tesla Model Y LR AWD.
My EV6 is light years ahead in terms of build quality, ride quality, interior design and driving experience.
No squeaky panels, the springs & struts are perfectly matched, Alcantara seating, Carplay, Android Auto, satellite radio, ambient lighting, no phantom breaking, cruise control works perfectly.
I suggest you educate yourself before typing.
Who cares about charging infrastructure? Who buys an EV without a home charger? 18 months of ownership of the garbage Y and I used a Supercharger 6 times. It's a non-issue.
And if manual seats is a real issue for you, you have bigger issues to deal with.
fun to watch~
Interior with the buckets and black headliner is stunning in the Kia. Tesla needs to step their interior game up.
These new electric cars might be fast but I love my Corvettes!!!!!
How come you didn’t use track mode on the tesla it allows you to configure more
No, that makes it slower.
@@justrandomthings319 definitely not true but even if it was it shows more options for regenerative braking and it cools after every run which could have made it a little better. I don’t think there would have been a huge difference but I think it could’ve been used on some of the tests instead of acting like it doesn’t exist. To be clear I think the ev6 is amazing still I was just asking why they didn’t use track mode on the tesla.
@@wwecallofduty123 The best thing to do is supercharge to 100% and before the run, precondition the battery by navigating to a supercharger. This will warm up the battery for peak performance. Track mode won't make it run as fast.
Chinese plastic + battery vs. Korean plastic+ battery....LOL i love my Taycan
That Tesla has a stronger regen mode. Track mode regen is much stronger than regular. Also, if you turn off Object Avoidance Acceleration, you will get closer to 11.5 - 11.7 1/4 mile at 120+mph.
3:47
Damnit, Case....
Base c5 was 13-13.5s @ 108mph in the 1/4.
No chance against evs at a mile above sea level or at sea level.
Seeing these e-machines casually walk past a Vet is so cool to see...
are you an idiot? That corvette is from 1999 and has a 4 speed automatic slushbox not even the way faster 6 speed manual. They can be bought for $10k. FYI, a $27k chevy bolt EV w/ 200 horsepower puts down a similar quarter mile time to the extra slow one in the video.
The Corvettes that would've had a chance? The C8 Z06 and eRay.
Damn, Model 3 doing great for a 6 year old car.
would like to see best 2 of 3 when you do thje drag race
Kia is actually building an EV plant in the US in Georgia. You will be able to get a tax credit soon.
I'm never buying racist Korean cars.
If the Kia GT range wasn't around 200 miles (175-180 realistic) it would be a good option. But unfortunately that's unusable. The normal EV6 range however is great.
Owners of the GT have been getting much better actual range than the official number. Kia is conservative with its numbers
@@Yubuzka3774 that's good to know, I'm not hating the EV6 is awesome. I drive 4000 miles a month so it's my problem lol
It is funny to me they had to use engine noise added at the finish line.
12:57, things get interesting lol.
I've never heard that KN. Gave a good laugh
Now I can't unsee this
That was fun.
They are a perfect match.
Nice to see Kia dishing it up against the Tesla. Tesla is yawn in appearance and appeal. Kia/Hyundai are bringing interesting designs. I think I still prefer the form and function of the Ioniq 5 best so far. Looking forward to seeing more of the competition step it up and start pushing Tesla's buttons... or lack there of...
Great video, however drive all 3 cars from Boulder to Los Angeles at posted speed and the Corvette will arrive first! And by a good margin
True that
Ok. You arrive maybe 30-45 minutes earlier. Then what?
@@tewest86 Bang the wife?
please drag ioniq 5n vs other super car !! would be soo high views i bet !
Tesla under rates its horsepower figure. That Model 3 Performance really has 530 horsepower. Dyno tested.
do 100mph braking test. more realistic for performance cars.
Impressive kia!
Y’all should change drivers as well.
As an owner of a Model 3 performance I bought to take to the track on weekends, once the novelty wore off after 2 years I wanted something nicer, that EV6 GT is in every regard a better daily car regardless of it's slightly less impressive acceleration, it's on my radar to replace my 3 soon after driving one.
how's the stereo in the Kia though? It's my favorite part of the M3P
Why not the model y which would be SUV vs SUV
Cheesey way to give the edge to Tesla
@@trell1011 but it wasn't..😂
@@HDHQDIRECT You are comparing a SUV to a car how is that not chessey?
Ev6 isn’t an SUV
@@toddgilmore8242 Crossover/SUV/ CUV same thing its still not a car.
low 12s I am pulling 11.6 11.5 on my draggy. hell a stinger can pull a 12.8
he didn't use GT launch mode on the EV6GT hence the poor start, it runs a faster quarter mile then model y. these guys are rather clueless, and then they downplayed the fact that the EV6 competes MORE closely with the model Y, obviously., yet they still attempted to compare pricing, what a stupid futile effort, the hyundai ioniq 6 sedan competes with the model 3 not the EV6 massive hatch/SUV.
@@roboticvenom1935 also the battery was not optimized if you look at the video the battery gauge was not at max
