KIA EV6 GT: FUNNEST EV YOU CAN BUY FOR UNDER $100K?

EV Channels Review

The Kia EV6 GT is lauded as a standout performance EV bargain under $100k, delivering exceptional speed with 576 horsepower and a communicative, playful chassis. The reviewer praises its outstanding body control, smooth ride even over bumps, responsive steering, and effective stability control, noting it impressed even alongside more expensive performance EVs like the Porsche Taycan and BMW i4 M50. However, the GT trim is criticized for its poor efficiency (2.8 miles/kWh) compared to other EVs, leading to a real-world range of around 200 miles, which is a significant drawback for the reviewer. Additionally, the manual seats are a deal-breaker for his family's needs, despite loving the car's performance and driving dynamics. The reviewer suggests a lower trim EV6 might be a better family option, but the GT's specific performance features like adaptive dampers and quicker steering are highly desirable.
