KIA EV6 GT VS IONIQ 5 N HIGHWAY RANGE TEST

EV Channels Review

This video pits the Kia EV6 GT against the Hyundai IONIQ 5 N in a 70 mph highway range test. Despite the IONIQ 5 N featuring a larger battery pack, the results were surprisingly close, with both performance EVs exhibiting limited highway range. The reviewer highlights that the EV6 GT, while a capable performer on track and spirited drives, suffers from a high seating position and a less comfortable daily driving experience, leading to overall disappointment. In contrast, the IONIQ 5 N is praised for its superior comfort, seating position, and overall driving dynamics, making it the preferred choice despite a higher price point. The test revealed the EV6 GT achieved 214 miles of range at 70 mph before losing the ability to maintain speed, while the IONIQ 5 N achieved 218 miles. The reviewer strongly recommends the IONIQ 5 N over the EV6 GT, even suggesting it's worth the extra cost.
