2023 KIA EV6 GT FAMILY REVIEW WITH CHILD SEAT INSTALLATION

EV Channels Review

The 2023 Kia EV6 GT is presented as a high-performance electric vehicle that blurs the line between a supercar and a family car. Reviewers highlight its "stupid quick" acceleration (576 hp, 0-60 in 3.5 seconds) and engaging driving dynamics, attributing this to its electronically controlled suspension and AWD system. The interior is praised for its spaciousness, comfortable racing bucket seats (though potentially snug for larger adults), and modern dual-screen setup. However, significant drawbacks are noted, primarily the limited EPA-estimated range of 206 miles, which is a considerable decrease from other trims and makes long road trips challenging. The reviewer also expresses disappointment with the manual seat adjustments and the "head-scratcher" toggle system for climate and radio controls, especially given the vehicle's luxury price point starting at $61,400. While acknowledging the thrilling performance, the consensus is that the GT trim makes too many sacrifices for its performance, with the GT Line or Genesis GV60 potentially offering a better balance of features, range, and performance for the price.
