EV Channels Review
The Kia EV6 GT's highway range test yielded surprising results, exceeding the reviewer's pessimistic expectations and even beating the EPA rating. Despite its powerful dual-motor setup and less efficient performance-oriented nature compared to standard EV6 models, the GT achieved 217.2 miles on the 70 mph highway loop, with approximately 210 miles considered usable. While this is less than the 230-250 miles seen in previous EV6 tests, the reviewer found the difference not as drastic as anticipated. Key criticisms include the manual bucket seats, which, despite their sporty appearance, proved uncomfortable for the reviewer's shoulders on longer drives, and the overall efficiency, which, while improved from initial estimates, is still lower than the standard EV6. The car's charging capabilities and adaptive suspension were noted positively.
