I bought the EV6 in May of 23. I started having ac issues. The replaced all the components after several issues and sitting in the shop for over a month. I also started having issues with drive to reverse but that could not be " duplicated". I requested buyback. Kia corporate, BBB, Attorney General have all have been contacted. They could not get responses from the company. This has to be the worst service, communication etc. I do not recommend KIA or the EV6 unless you want issues and horrible communication from corporate.

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.

I’m the owner of Two EV6 2022 EV6 wind 2023 EV6 GT line I’m having big time problems charging the battery , the charge gets interrupted without any reason . I charge at home at night, when I wake up the next morning ready to leave , I have no charge. Talked to Kia , was not able to find a Kia approved technician to take a look at my problem , they try to say is my charger, but no , since my Gt EV6 chargers fine . Very disappointed with Kia

Really like the car. Pretty steep learning curve of all the technology. Takes off like a rocket in any of the drive modes. Fantastic sound system, Minor tweaks that could be improved better door handles, and all trim levels are missing a rear window wiper. Some questions on the battery management system and life of the standard OEM 12 volt battery. Two years into it and haven’t taken a long trip with the EV6. Too many worries about charger availability. Wanting to change to a hybrid model.
