KIA EV6 GT - IS THE FASTEST EV6 ALSO THE BEST?

EV Channels Review

The Kia EV6 GT, boasting nearly 600bhp, is presented as a significant performance upgrade to an already well-regarded EV. While its subtle styling enhancements and impressive straight-line acceleration are noted positives, the review highlights a disconnect between its immense power and the chassis's ability to fully harness it. The ride is described as stiff and sometimes jiggly, and the car can feel unruly when pushed, lacking the communicative and engaging driving experience enthusiasts might expect. The manual seats are a point of contention for comfort and adjustability, and while the interior is generally good, the infotainment screen's configurability is criticized. Despite its blistering pace and Kia's excellent warranty, the reviewer suggests the GT trim might be overpowered for its chassis, leading to a less refined driving experience than its GT-Line S sibling, which offers a broader range of talents for everyday use. Ultimately, the GT is seen as a niche product that elevates Kia's brand image but may not be the most enjoyable or practical choice for most buyers.
