2023 KIA EV6 GT: TOP 5 LIKES AND DISLIKES

EV Channels Review

The 2023 Kia EV6 GT is lauded as a thrilling performance EV, boasting 576 horsepower and a 0-60 mph time of 3.4 seconds, placing it in supercar territory. Reviewer highlights include its insane acceleration, engaging drift mode, striking exterior styling with unique design elements and neon accents, spacious interior offering limousine-like rear legroom, and advanced technology features like customizable displays and excellent driver assistance systems. However, the performance comes at a cost. Key drawbacks identified are the significantly reduced range compared to other EV6 variants (206 miles EPA vs. potential for more in lower trims), manual seat adjustments at a premium price point ($62,865 as-tested), and a confusing dual-mode climate/infotainment control screen that complicates user interaction. Despite these criticisms, the reviewer acknowledges the vehicle's comfortable ride quality, making it a versatile option for both spirited driving and daily family use. The charging speed, capable of 10-80% in 18 minutes on an 800V architecture, is also a notable positive.
