Talking Cars 349: Driving the Kia EV6
Plus, we discuss the challenges with buying an electric car today
Main theme: The EV6 is Kia’s first purpose-built EV, meaning it doesn’t share a platform with an existing gas-powered model. We rented one from the automaker. It has a lot in common with the Hyundai Ioniq 5 but also has its own distinct character. We run through what it’s like to live with the EV6 and how this electric car stacks up against rivals like the Tesla Model Y, Ford Mustang Mach-E, and Volkswagen ID.4.
Audience questions: With supply shortages, is it possible to get a deal on an EV? Why are some dealers better than others when it comes to selling electric cars?
