Kia, Hyundai and Genesis are literally examples of what putting in efforts look like. I’m a big fan. This is coming from someone who drives a Cadillac.
The Kia EV6 is pretty awesome too! It’s got that futuristic design and impressive range. Plus, it’s all about that electric power, which is super cool.
I really don’t like the new front end. I far prefer the previous one. Other than that, I like the changes. The NACS port, the steering wheel, the (finally) wireless CarPlay are all welcome. For me, it’s between this and the Model 3. I don’t need a Model Y sized vehicle. So the new 3 is still a far more cost effective choice, even after adding an after market wireless CarPlay display.
Gabby! Then Lyn which she was so funny in the back lol. I was hoping that they would've finally bring over the sequential rear turns but too bad. I didn't want to have to import them that's why. Was looking to retro fit them on my 23 EV6 GT. I wonder if they will give some of the new features to the prior versions. Like the fake shifting. 😅
It's still not clear to me if the US will get the 2025 models now or the summer of next year? Are they just referring to the refreshed GT trim that's coming in the summer?
@Cedar1956 Someone asked in the Kia livestream chat when they announced it and they were told summer 2025 which doesn't make sense given the Nov announcement. I think the person from Kia who responded in the live chat was talking about the 2025 GT trim.
I think the front end looks good. The back end still doesn't, though (IMO). ALSO, $55K for the GT-Line is absurd. Needs to be $10k less for the GT-Line, and the GT come in at mid-50's (or even less). It's crazy how Hyundai/Kia have become high-dollar cars, and it's even crazier how the general public is eating it up.
Keep in mind this is the 800v higher end tech in this one. The EV4 is coming in very similar shape, a little smaller, 400v and $10k cheaper in about a year
give me an example of a car with 800v ultra fast charging less than 50k? you do know the next car is Porche, Audis, lucids... which are all cost more than 80k-120k, right? You don't understand how quickly it is to charge, most of the time less than 10-15 mins
Don't like the refresh front fascia of the sportage. it looks like the Sorento and the carnival. The daytime yellow lights run too long to the bottom on both Sorento, and the carnival is obnoxious and ugly. Why would you have yellow, why not have white led.
Hatchback, eventually a crossover but definitely not an SUV. You're a car journalist, please stop spreading a marketing bull shite from the manufacturer.
Ugh they're clearly not listening to customers if they're still doing that dumb switching from climate to audio. At least Hyundai listened and brought back buttons
ehh ioniq 5 N is way better. the front of the ev6 is cool but i hate the back of the car soo much. also i agree the top should be painted black to match the large sunroof. it just looks weird being half colored body and the other half black sunroof
We have a 2024 EV6 AWD since July. About 6k miles on it. It is a phenomenal car to drive. It is fantastic.

Gabi is looking stunning next to this amazing machine.
Even Sofyan couldn't help himself and had to look 10:04
The p e r v s are out
She looks underaged
The p e rvs are out
I thought that was gabi.
I rented an EV6 for a few days and absolutely loved it.
This car can’t look any better!! Kia , Hyundai and Genesis are the best looking cars on the market and also the most innovators!!!
I really like the styling of this vehicle. The bear claw center console is a nice touch.
Mid 4sec 0-60
9:55 Beautiful behind❤
Massively improved the front.
The previous headlights were horrendous.
The Kia EV6 is pretty awesome too! It’s got that futuristic design and impressive range. Plus, it’s all about that electric power, which is super cool.
Gabi made an appearance in your video🔥🔥
Like the front end design 👍
😮I see the gorgeous Gabi from the Hyundai/Kia Channel in Canada. Hi Gabi!
We'd like to say sorry for consistently being in your exterior shots 😬
You got another subscriber so i'd day this strategy worked out for you... i'm on to you. lol
Great review, fantastic car, and a nice cameo from Alex on Autos.
Its Gabi and Charlotte making a guest appearance
So much easier on the eyes than a balding dude.
Thank you for the great coverage on this EV6!
I think the front lights look like they are doing a "most muscular" pose.
much improved front end imo
I disagree
5:15 that key fob looks huge
The front end of the previous model is the only thing I didn't like about the car and now I love it what's the updated design!
Thank goodness the GT is still made in Korea and now US of A.
Proof there are better alternatives to Tesla out there. Love my EV6 GT. Fits like a glove.
The front has grown on me
I really don’t like the new front end. I far prefer the previous one. Other than that, I like the changes. The NACS port, the steering wheel, the (finally) wireless CarPlay are all welcome.

I really don't get all you people who prefer the old front end. It's the one part that was almost out of place on it although I still love mine :)
I'm going for the 2025 BECAUSE of the front end.
Just because Tesla has a frunk doesn't mean you have to copy it if it's useless. Same thing with those door handles.
I am considering one but worried about the lack of a rear wiper.
So happy Kia is getting a way from piano black!
That's no key fob that's a wallet 😂
beautifully redesigned car but still no frunk noooo thanks
but also did anyone else notice that onion the appeared at the bottom left @ 9:56
Gabby! Then Lyn which she was so funny in the back lol.

This car looks like it’s from 10-15 years in the future.
I disagree
It looks just like everything else on the road 😂
Umm No it does not.....😒
@ I disagree
@@keeprisingmb Yes it does
Alex, Lyn who else...lol
It's still not clear to me if the US will get the 2025 models now or the summer of next year? Are they just referring to the refreshed GT trim that's coming in the summer?
I was told March or April.

3 videos in one day?
Display reminds me of the old Star Trek penal when Spock and the crew used to BS on them and now it is a reality. 😂
No audio
Ssssoooo when you bump into a wall, you destroy the headlight? How is that good design
I think the front end looks good. The back end still doesn't, though (IMO).

Almost All EVs have become super expensive. It sucks ngl
Keep in mind this is the 800v higher end tech in this one. The EV4 is coming in very similar shape, a little smaller, 400v and $10k cheaper in about a year

중국차 사세요.예전 싸구려 만들던 기아가 아닙니다.
Love the look but dam that back seat is snug!
Lmao I did not know this was a suv. Lol This is a hatchback. I don't know what kia talking about 🤣🤣🤣
Everything is just called an suv these days.
Its CCNC, not cncc lol
Don't like the refresh front fascia of the sportage. it looks like the Sorento and the carnival. The daytime yellow lights run too long to the bottom on both Sorento, and the carnival is obnoxious and ugly. Why would you have yellow, why not have white led.
No such thing as vegan leather. Its a vinyl seat
lol thats the Kia?hyuandia canada channel girl at the begining of the video
Those lights remind me of there boomerang uglier light.
Definitely a stretch hatch 😂
Give it a gas powertrain or even hybrid these things would sell GUARANTEED
Hatchback, eventually a crossover but definitely not an SUV. You're a car journalist, please stop spreading a marketing bull shite from the manufacturer.
wow...this is Fulgy.
I disagree
Form doesn’t follow function. Learn more from Tesla!
Overrated brand
Ugh they're clearly not listening to customers if they're still doing that dumb switching from climate to audio. At least Hyundai listened and brought back buttons
As an actual owner I'm telling you that you just use the steering wheels controls for audio, very simple.
It's only Americans complaining about it. It can be preset. Don't know why Americans are scared of technology.
Awful. Worth 20k next month.
Is it me or did they make it uglier.
ehh ioniq 5 N is way better. the front of the ev6 is cool but i hate the back of the car soo much. also i agree the top should be painted black to match the large sunroof. it just looks weird being half colored body and the other half black sunroof
