Car drives well but the charging system (ICCU) was flawed and 3 tries to replace. 12 volt battery died and it operates all accessories including the starter. Still waiting for replacement 12 volt battery after 2 weeks
I just love this car

The ride and handling on the car are amazing....best suspension since I owned a Porsche. More comfortable than the BMW I owned (I don't understand the Edmunds complaint about harsh ride....maybe they are used to a Buick?). It's fast, fun to drive, comfortable, quiet, and great looking too. I've never had even the smallest glitch with the car so I am really happy. I bought it new with a huge discount from the dealer, but I would still love the car if I had paid sticker. Range for AWD model: mild weather @ 70 mph=240 mi / Hot weather 106 F @ 70mph=200 mi.

First, a note about journalists. They get a car and do a road trip, and criticise the car because of their range anxiety, not being accustomed to having to use 3 apps to find chargers. The simple fact that you will have a charger at home and drive around town 90% of the time should at least be mentioned. It's NOT THE CAR, IT'S THE CHARGERS. They are in stupid places, in direct sun, you don't need a super fast charger, 100 kw gets you there fast enough. End rant. This is one of the first limited edition GT cars, not the new GT. It has two motors and all wheel drive which we have not found to be necessary but perhaps it adds to safety driving in heavy rain. After a couple of years of dealing with it, I wouldn't get the matte finish again because you can't simply drive thru *any* car wash without scratching it. I have to hand wash. After 2 weeks of ownership, we took our First Edition EV6 77kwh from Tallahassee to Pensacola which is 201 miles. We traveled on I-10 at 80 mph with the A/C blasting and got there with only 10% of charge remaining. There were a ton of charging stations along the coastal roads but only one between the two cities on the interstate at that time. We prudently stopped to charge on the return trip for peace of mind at the single fast charger on I-10. Walmart, I love you for that. We love the interior design and find the car charges quickly in the 15 to 20 min range. The trim finish couldn't be better. A corner of one bit of steering wheel trim pulled up at the two year mark and the dealership fixed it promptly. A tire pressure warning malfunction happened after the tires were rotated. Overpressuring the tires by 10 lbs, driving on the highway, and setting the tires pressure back fixed the problem. No recurrence. Our only criticism of the interior is that we inadvertently turn on seat heater/cooler or steering wheel heater while using the control panel directly *above* it. This could be easily remedied by printing a cover that flips up for access. Two years of it happening finds us well trained to avoid the design flaw. We still love the EV 6 after the second year. We have learned that travel on secondary roads is not merely more interesting, but it's energy efficient and easier on the driver. All we need is more DC chargers that aren't on major highways. Rural utilities have put in 100kw chargers in small towns but it's a bit tricky to map them out. Of course, everybody has plans to do it. But it's going to be some time before people realize just how fun it is to drive through small town America.

Zero-gas Starship

Thanks to a generous offer by my wife’s employer to let EV owners charge at work for FREE, we jumped into the EV marketplace unaware of how depleted the stock had become. The Kia EV6 was not our first choice on paper as she loved her 2020 Outback. I was pushing for the Ford F-150 Lighting. But when we finally saw and test drove an EV6 AWD it was love at first sight. We snapped it up. A month of zero-gas later, the $400 we save on fuel is nearly paying for the car! Or should I say starship! So quick. Such cutting edge tech. Love the seat cooling. And the fact that the EV6 has some of the same emergency power supply capabilities as the Lightning makes it feel less like a compromise and more like the premium choice. We are loving our black-on-black beauty. Even the new Kia logo lends itself to the feel that advanced aliens dropped it off for us to enjoy.

Fold your tray tables and place your seats in their fully upright position and prepare for takeoff! What I love: This GT is a blast to drive. Even in normal mode it has snap your head back acceleration. I find that it takes most turns with incredible ease and the ride is smooth and never jars me. I find it much more enjoyable than my wife's GT-Line RWD, the seats are comfortable and the safety features are plentiful and function well for the most part. I find that it has more that enough cargo space for the average person. I can't speak for a large family but then it's not really appropriate for a large family in my opinion. I consider this car to be first and foremost a sports car and an SUV second. I feel that it does an excellent job at both. I took it on a road trip and had no issues with its range and charging stations were easy to find and recharged the battery very quickly. What I don't love: There are features available in the GT-Line that aren't in the GT and I feel they should be. They include. 8 way adjustable front seats, ventilated front seats, memory seats and side mirrors, and tilt down reverse side mirrors. To me these items belong in a high end vehicle and I was disappointed to find that the GT doesn't have them. My only other complaint is the turning radius. It’s quite wide making u-turns in tight spaces impossible. Other than those issues I really have nothing bad to say about this car. It really is the most fun to drive car I have ever owned.
