KIA EV6 AWD 70 MPH HIGHWAY RANGE TESTING

EV Channels Review

This livestream range test of the Kia EV6 Wind AWD highlights the vehicle's impressive comfort and quietness on the highway, even in challenging windy conditions. The reviewer praises the smooth ride, excellent NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) levels, and the effectiveness of the Highway Drive Assist 2 system, noting its non-intrusive nature. While the EV6's design is considered less attractive than the Ioniq 5 by the reviewer, its lower seating position and potentially more aerodynamic shape are seen as advantages. The test was impacted by significant side winds for the first half, but efficiency improved as the wind died down. The reviewer anticipates a real-world range exceeding 200 miles, potentially surpassing the Ioniq 5's 227.4 miles due to warmer temperatures and the EV6's slightly slipperier design, despite the initial wind penalty. A notable omission is the lack of a rear wiper, a shared concern with the Ioniq 5.
