00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,280
- The Kia EV6 is a car that a lot of people

2
00:00:03,280 --> 00:00:07,938
in our office like a lot, and I'm not among them. It's fantastic in many ways,

3
00:00:07,938 --> 00:00:11,120
and just incredibly annoying, and a whole bunch of others

4
00:00:11,120 --> 00:00:14,920
so I'm going to nitpick a whole bunch of things in this,

5
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:19,070
and if those all seem like stuff that you can live with there is a very good car underneath.

6
00:00:19,070 --> 00:00:23,800
Seeing it in person, I am shocked by how much I like the looks of the EV6.

7
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:28,170
Just going off the photos, the IONIQ 5, I thought looked incredible,

8
00:00:28,170 --> 00:00:33,170
and the EV6 was kind of, huh. But having seen both of them in person

9
00:00:33,170 --> 00:00:39,190
the IONIQ 5 five looks kind of like a chunker and this thing, in my opinion at least, looks awesome,

10
00:00:39,190 --> 00:00:46,180
and a whole bunch of people in the office agree. Kind of have this cool sporty sort of cat fishy front

11
00:00:46,180 --> 00:00:52,310
that goes into this long sweeping thing that goes up into the, people say it's an Austin Martin

12
00:00:52,310 --> 00:00:57,070
kind of taillight. I think it looks more like a Prius Prime, but whatever.

13
00:00:57,070 --> 00:01:01,870
It's pretty sweet. (laughs) My favorite part though, is right under here.

14
00:01:01,870 --> 00:01:05,700
There's this little light that during the nighttime lights up the haunch.

15
00:01:05,700 --> 00:01:10,110
Kia calls it their silhouette lighting. It's pretty sweet, If I'm honest.

16
00:01:10,110 --> 00:01:15,690
What surprised me the most about the looks though, is that despite this being one of the first in Canada,

17
00:01:15,690 --> 00:01:21,040
no one cared, not a single second glance. You drive past a bunch of people and no one looks,

18
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,160
until I drove past a bunch of middle schoolers

19
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:28,460
on their little e-scooters. They were just like, "Ha, oh my God."

20
00:01:28,460 --> 00:01:32,320
So that's who you impressed Kia, take from that what you wish.

21
00:01:32,320 --> 00:01:35,850
Another surprise is just how damn big this thing is.

22
00:01:35,850 --> 00:01:39,273
The wheel base on this is the same as a Kia Telluride,

23
00:01:40,980 --> 00:01:45,170
it's longer than six feet. That's for sure. It kind of makes it a bit weird

24
00:01:45,170 --> 00:01:50,620
when you're going around tight corners. I'm sorry, Kia but I nearly curved that tire a couple times.

25
00:01:50,620 --> 00:01:56,720
Just you don't expect to be this long. Coming around to the tailgate, Kia does have a thing where

26
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:01,730
if you stand here for six seconds, it'll open up. I think it needs to be locked, but whatever.

27
00:02:01,730 --> 00:02:03,263
You can just touch it right there.

28
00:02:04,900 --> 00:02:11,023
One important note is that there is no sensor so if your garage is a little bit low, mine's here,

29
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,160
it actually goes up to there, you have to hold this button for three seconds

30
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,480
to set the height. Pretty simple, fairly standard.

31
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:23,669
I didn't know, 'cause I don't come from a power tailgate family. In here, there's a good amount of space

32
00:02:23,669 --> 00:02:28,190
and you're able to put down the seats just like that.

33
00:02:28,190 --> 00:02:33,110
Works awesome. It is kind of annoying that they give you this.

34
00:02:33,110 --> 00:02:37,423
It's your charging cable if you want to just plug into a random house socket,

35
00:02:38,988 --> 00:02:45,570
but I don't get why they couldn't have just packaged it in a way that goes underneath right here,

36
00:02:45,570 --> 00:02:49,250
or maybe in the incredibly small front. It's just kind of awkward.

37
00:02:49,250 --> 00:02:54,850
I would take out the cable and throw away this package. Overall though, the functionality here is pretty great.

38
00:02:54,850 --> 00:02:59,449
Like this bit you can take out and stash underneath.

39
00:02:59,449 --> 00:03:01,115
(car clanking) Oh.

40
00:03:03,892 --> 00:03:07,043
Okay it's kind of difficult. (upbeat music)

41
00:03:07,043 --> 00:03:09,626
(car clanking)

42
00:03:19,910 --> 00:03:23,886
Just like that. One thing I was kind of shocked to learn is that

43
00:03:23,886 --> 00:03:27,870
this one with the 14 speaker Meridian sound system

44
00:03:27,870 --> 00:03:32,600
has a subwoofer. They really fooled me because somewhere around 80 Hertz

45
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:37,800
it just rolls off into nothing, there's no sub base whatsoever.

46
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,960
Let's have a look at it though. I'm guessing there's a little six inch sub in here

47
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:47,290
but it does not do a whole lot. The good news is though, that the other 13 speakers are quite good.

48
00:03:47,290 --> 00:03:50,990
So if you are an audio file, you will likely be very happy

49
00:03:50,990 --> 00:03:57,150
by just chucking this sub in the garbage and putting another little sub down here with an LCTY

50
00:03:57,150 --> 00:04:00,150
and if you are not an audio file, you'll probably be happy

51
00:04:00,150 --> 00:04:05,260
with the standard six speakers setup. Even though getting these seats down was super easy

52
00:04:05,260 --> 00:04:09,740
in order to put them back up, you need to come around here and pull that.

53
00:04:09,740 --> 00:04:12,863
It's pretty simple but not the most intuitive.

54
00:04:14,070 --> 00:04:19,130
Getting in though. It's my first time in the backseats. This is quite a nice little area.

55
00:04:19,130 --> 00:04:23,610
It's pretty borderline, my hair is hitting, but my head isn't.

56
00:04:23,610 --> 00:04:27,460
I'm six feet tall by the way. These seats are comfy. You have heated seats.

57
00:04:27,460 --> 00:04:32,170
I'm sure that's only a top trim option. We also even have little USB charging ports

58
00:04:32,170 --> 00:04:33,570
on the sides of these seats.

59
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,423
I just moved the trunk, cover back one notch and now,

60
00:04:39,843 --> 00:04:43,780
oh, I can recline, sweet. Oh, when you go back, you lose a lot of headroom.

61
00:04:43,780 --> 00:04:47,740
That's too bad. (laughs) Oh, this thing goes up with it.

62
00:04:47,740 --> 00:04:52,920
Moving up to the front though. The storage situation is a little bit weird.

63
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,370
So, LTT water bottle does not fit, unfortunately,

64
00:04:57,370 --> 00:05:01,717
and this little spot here is not storage it's a fuse box.

65
00:05:01,717 --> 00:05:06,827
(Andy and Alexander laughs) (car door bangs) Sitting in the driver's seat there's a whole lot of,

66
00:05:06,827 --> 00:05:11,500
"Did you guys even test this?" Like this is a brand new electric vehicle

67
00:05:11,500 --> 00:05:17,120
and there's not really a good spot to put your phone. Well, there is, it's right here, there's even a Qi charger,

68
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,640
but unfortunately that means that I can't use Android audio

69
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,510
because that's wired only, and in fairness you should use wired only

70
00:05:24,510 --> 00:05:30,315
just because the audio is so much better, but like they very easily could have had a USB port here,

71
00:05:30,315 --> 00:05:34,980
little cord that goes up to my phone. Would've been awesome, but they didn't.

72
00:05:34,980 --> 00:05:38,940
So instead, the USB ports way up in here

73
00:05:40,460 --> 00:05:45,460
and my phone I have to plug in and chuck down there.

74
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:51,920
Not a huge issue, that's not too bad, but it means that I can't put my water bottle down there

75
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,290
'cause it's gonna bash up my phone. I guess this means that I just have to Chuck my water bottle

76
00:05:56,290 --> 00:05:59,820
into the backseat. It is nice that it'll remind me though to grab it.

77
00:05:59,820 --> 00:06:03,303
Andy was getting in the backseat for a B-roll shot and now he's locked in.

78
00:06:05,050 --> 00:06:08,830
- [Andy] Help me out. - We have no idea how to turn off the child locks in this,

79
00:06:08,830 --> 00:06:12,210
it's actually a problem. - [Andy] I Wanna go.

80
00:06:12,210 --> 00:06:15,763
- Now it's time to address the worst part of this car,

81
00:06:17,100 --> 00:06:21,820
everything here, all of the stuff that you interact with.

82
00:06:21,820 --> 00:06:25,770

to help save time and work more efficiently. This stuff it's a mess honestly.

92
00:07:05,490 --> 00:07:10,340
Porsche took at the Taycan and they were like, "Why do we make things that were easy,

93
00:07:10,340 --> 00:07:13,857
way more difficult." And then VW came along and they were like,

94
00:07:13,857 --> 00:07:17,900
"We can outdo you guys by a mile, make it just so much worse to use."

95
00:07:17,900 --> 00:07:21,672
And then Kia came along. It was just like, "VW, hold my beer.

96
00:07:21,672 --> 00:07:27,650
I'm gonna do this." So (laughs) here we have, what is quite an awesome

97
00:07:27,650 --> 00:07:32,650
little spot, your volume, tune, seek, next track,

98
00:07:32,710 --> 00:07:35,783
your media. All of this is great. Shut up.

99
00:07:35,783 --> 00:07:41,400
It's not the most responsive either. Our problem is though, where are our climate controls?

100
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:48,240
You have to press that. Now we don't have volume. We do have temperature and our fan speeds right here,

101
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:52,543
but now I have no media controls. It's just, ugh.

102
00:07:53,740 --> 00:07:57,020
Why, why did you have to do this Kia?

103
00:07:57,020 --> 00:08:01,890
The absolute worst part about this, you might also accidentally hit one of these.

104
00:08:01,890 --> 00:08:06,517
I cannot recall how many times I've been just driving down the road, I'm being like,

105
00:08:06,517 --> 00:08:10,670
"Why is my hearse a hundred degrees?" It's because when I was hitting some of this,

106
00:08:10,670 --> 00:08:14,000
I rest my hand here and accidentally press

107
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,790
any of these buttons. The passenger seat cooling is a pretty common one

108
00:08:17,790 --> 00:08:22,900
that I hit as well. It's terrible. As for the actual touch screen that's here,

109
00:08:22,900 --> 00:08:26,470
it works perfectly fine. My biggest complaint about it is that it's just

110
00:08:26,470 --> 00:08:30,940
a little bit too far away. I kind of need to crouch forward every time that I use it

111
00:08:30,940 --> 00:08:35,690
making it just not as nice to use. I'm sure with a week or two you'll have it down,

112
00:08:35,690 --> 00:08:38,930
but there is a problem with though is the 12 inch screen

113
00:08:38,930 --> 00:08:43,230
that's directly in front of me. It's a kind of a waste.

114
00:08:43,230 --> 00:08:48,380
So we can look here. We have my speed on the left here

115
00:08:48,380 --> 00:08:51,900
which is typically occluded by the steering wheel.

116
00:08:51,900 --> 00:08:56,000
Fortunately, we do have a heads up display, that's the only thing that I've been using for speed

117
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:00,840
pretty much. We also have our charging over on the right. Same thing, can't see it because of the steering wheel,

118
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:06,150
but what sucks is that in the center I can't put anything that's useful there.

119
00:09:06,150 --> 00:09:11,000
So, we have attention mode, my last break was 13 minutes ago apparently.

120
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,270
I could not care less about that. Go here, drive info.

121
00:09:15,270 --> 00:09:20,460
It's all fine information that I want to have but a speedometer would be a lot more useful.

122
00:09:20,460 --> 00:09:25,410
We have a compass, but no map. If it was a map I would be totally fine with it,

123
00:09:25,410 --> 00:09:28,730
and information, this one's kind of cool.

124
00:09:28,730 --> 00:09:33,060
If you look at it, then I don't know. It's fine. It's just, ugh.

125
00:09:33,060 --> 00:09:38,780
Andy just asked if when you have nav on if it will show in here, as far as I can tell,

126
00:09:38,780 --> 00:09:42,210
no, it only tells you like the next turn that you have to do.

127
00:09:42,210 --> 00:09:45,600
So let's say I want to go over here.

128
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,715
Set his destination. Sure. It does tell you when your next turn is

129
00:09:49,715 --> 00:09:53,740
but it's not giving you an actual map and it seems kind of like a waste.

130
00:09:53,740 --> 00:09:57,820
Let's take it for a drive though, 'cause for the most part that is a good point in this.

131
00:09:57,820 --> 00:10:02,500
Driving around, the first thing that you might notice is that that camera's pretty shaky.

132
00:10:02,500 --> 00:10:08,330
This is a very smooth road. The ride is just a little bit on the harsh side.

133
00:10:08,330 --> 00:10:11,790
It's well, it's pretty typical EV stuff really.

134
00:10:11,790 --> 00:10:15,320
The Volvo had the same problem where it's just a little bit harsh

135
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,440
especially when it you're going a little bit slower, and then, as you get going faster

136
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,300
it sort of evens out a little bit. What I was hoping was

137
00:10:23,300 --> 00:10:26,330
that this car has electronically adjustable dampers

138
00:10:26,330 --> 00:10:30,130
so I can put it in sport mode here and the whole thing stiffens up.

139
00:10:30,130 --> 00:10:33,990
It's pretty awesome actually, but when I put it in eco or normal

140
00:10:33,990 --> 00:10:37,720
it doesn't get quite as comfortable as I would like.

141
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,760
There also is the added downside that there's no custom mode.

142
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:46,520
So I can't go in and play around with having like the dampers on their softest settings

143
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:52,510
and having the power train in its sporty setting, and I can just do eco mode with my right foot.

144
00:10:52,510 --> 00:10:55,750
Speaking of my right foot though, there is a lot behind it.

145
00:10:55,750 --> 00:11:00,750
This thing has 320 horsepower and 446 foot pound of torque.

146
00:11:01,070 --> 00:11:06,403
Now, realistically you're probably not buying the one that's not powerful but if you do,

147
00:11:07,417 --> 00:11:10,760
it has a zero to 60 and 4.6 seconds.

148
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:16,700
It is shockingly quick up until about a hundred kilometers per hour at which point it sort of

149
00:11:16,700 --> 00:11:22,330
tapers off and isn't super fast, but how many people that buy this are going to care

150
00:11:22,330 --> 00:11:25,780
if they can smoke like a Kova at 150.

151
00:11:25,780 --> 00:11:31,500
I doubt it. One thing to note though, is that as the battery drops down past about 50%

152
00:11:31,500 --> 00:11:37,090
you do lose that initial snap. And also you can turn off traction control

153
00:11:37,090 --> 00:11:41,917
and it snaps even harder. (laughs) I love that you can turn off traction control on this.

154
00:11:41,917 --> 00:11:46,890
It's just great. For the range, it's really quite good.

155
00:11:46,890 --> 00:11:50,130
You can get about 350 kilometers real world

156
00:11:50,130 --> 00:11:57,530
with climate control settings that are reasonable and a slightly heavy right foot pretty easily.

157
00:11:57,530 --> 00:12:03,450
I think for most people that's gonna be more than enough. As for charging, it's your typical non Tesla EV,

158
00:12:03,450 --> 00:12:08,100
just huge pain in the ass. Unless of course, you have a charger at your house,

159
00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:13,540
in which case, you will charge it up there and probably never charge it up anywhere else

160
00:12:13,540 --> 00:12:17,060
except on long road trips. One thing that's nice when you're driving around

161
00:12:17,060 --> 00:12:20,140
is say you're changing a lane, when you turn on your signal

162
00:12:20,140 --> 00:12:24,810
you get a little camera up here. It's pretty awesome actually

163
00:12:24,810 --> 00:12:29,370
and also if there is someone in your blind spot, it will show up a little red thing

164
00:12:29,370 --> 00:12:34,670
on the hood and around your car so you'd have have to try pretty hard

165
00:12:34,670 --> 00:12:40,970
to lane change into someone. Overall this car is very good, but like everything else

166
00:12:40,970 --> 00:12:46,780
it has a bunch of little annoyances that just add up to not really loving it.

167
00:12:46,780 --> 00:12:51,030
So we have these floppy paddles here and they change the amount of regenerative braking

168
00:12:51,030 --> 00:12:54,060
that you have. I personally like it the most

169
00:12:54,060 --> 00:12:58,350
with the eye pedal on, that's your one pedal driving,

170
00:12:58,350 --> 00:13:03,640
it'll completely stop you if you let off of it. The problem is though, is that I don't know why

171
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,030
but it'll just randomly leave this mode.

172
00:13:07,030 --> 00:13:11,120
So you'll be in the not single pedal regenerative breaking

173
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:15,380
which is about the same until about 10 kilometers per hour.

174
00:13:15,380 --> 00:13:19,890
At which point it starts moving forward on you so if you're expecting it to stop

175
00:13:19,890 --> 00:13:24,070
it's kind of just a little bit scary. It's just strange.

176
00:13:24,070 --> 00:13:30,480
The adaptive crews in the EV6 is quite good. It isn't exceptional like Audi system.

177
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,950
So if there's a car that's stopped in front of you, it will stop you,

178
00:13:34,950 --> 00:13:39,230
but it's a bit back clunchy. If there's just someone driving in front of you though

179
00:13:39,230 --> 00:13:42,760
or you're gonna stop and go traffic, it's pretty awesome.

180
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,460
Also, the lane keep assist is quite good.

181
00:13:46,460 --> 00:13:49,750
It's a little ping pongy I found,

182
00:13:49,750 --> 00:13:53,430
but I actually used it, which is more than I can say

183
00:13:53,430 --> 00:13:56,660
about pretty much every other car that I've had. I think it's mostly down

184
00:13:56,660 --> 00:13:59,710
to having the hard button here to enable and disable it

185
00:13:59,710 --> 00:14:04,650
so when things get a little bit too complicated I can easily take over unlike in the Volvo

186
00:14:04,650 --> 00:14:07,890
where just it's two menus deep, never used it.

187
00:14:07,890 --> 00:14:11,590
One thing I love about this car though is the windshield wiper stock.

188
00:14:11,590 --> 00:14:15,870
It is just hands down the best windshield wiper stock I have used in a car.

189
00:14:15,870 --> 00:14:19,790
So you turn it and it just gives you a little readout

190
00:14:19,790 --> 00:14:24,580
of what your front wipers are, how much your auto wiper setting is.

191
00:14:24,580 --> 00:14:27,730
It's easy, and simple to use, and well thought through.

192
00:14:27,730 --> 00:14:30,930
It's also a carryover from non EV Kias

193
00:14:30,930 --> 00:14:35,280
so I guess that's why it's well thought through.

194
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:39,800
Oh, let's just pull over right here, I need to show the people our absolutely fantastic

195
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,490
parking camera. There we go.

196
00:14:43,490 --> 00:14:47,710
Look at this. You have the 360 there and this one

197
00:14:47,710 --> 00:14:51,620
that you can just turn around so you know exactly where you are.

198
00:14:51,620 --> 00:14:56,980
It's by far the best 360 camera that I've ever seen in a car.

199
00:14:56,980 --> 00:15:01,560
It is a little prone to dirt and water getting on it,

200
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,350
but it really isn't that bad. The only thing that does kind of suck is

201
00:15:05,350 --> 00:15:08,700
that it shows up a white car here instead of a blue one.

202
00:15:08,700 --> 00:15:12,030
Everyone should color match. Well, while we're pausing for one sec

203
00:15:12,030 --> 00:15:13,933
just stay here, Andy, watch this.

204
00:15:18,610 --> 00:15:22,811
Okay, maybe I have to get in the position. Come on.

205
00:15:22,811 --> 00:15:26,890
Go. Yeah, huh, you're supposed to be able to hold these buttons

206
00:15:26,890 --> 00:15:30,430
and it moves forward and backwards so you can get into small parking spots.

207
00:15:30,430 --> 00:15:33,923
I can't get to work right now. Andy wants to do another launch.

208
00:15:36,540 --> 00:15:40,163
That was good, that was a good one. (Andy and Alexander laugh) Ah.

209
00:15:40,163 --> 00:15:44,320
- [Andy] My headphones are in the trunk now! Oh my God! - [Andy] For real. - So good.

210
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,230
- [Andy] I don't have my headphones now. (laughs) - Electric torque is so great.

211
00:15:48,230 --> 00:15:51,360
What isn't great but's more just fine,

212
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,400
is the handle thing. It's reasonably sporty.

213
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,140
I'll put it in sport mode. Yeah, little bit sharper now.

214
00:15:58,140 --> 00:16:01,160
There's quite a bit of body roll even though

215
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,770
all the weights nice and down low, it's skateboard platform.

216
00:16:04,770 --> 00:16:09,720
And as you push on, it's all under steer a hundred percent.

217
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:15,180
I don't even think that changing the anti roll bars will be able to help you too much there.

218
00:16:15,180 --> 00:16:22,010
That said, if you're coming from an SUV this will be fricking incredible, you'll love the handling.

219
00:16:22,010 --> 00:16:27,020
If you come from, I don't know, a golf GTI like me, you won't be as happy.

220
00:16:27,020 --> 00:16:31,160
Oh, I nearly forgot these seats they're pretty good. They're heated and cooled.

221
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:35,520
The cooling only comes and the top spec GT line but they're nice and comfy.

222
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:40,080
They hold me in reasonably well, I appreciate them.

223
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:45,400
The only thing that I don't like about the driving position is that the steering wheel has to be just a touch higher

224
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:49,830
than I want so that I can see my speed. Oh, can I hands free this corner?

225
00:16:50,930 --> 00:16:55,430
- Nope, nope. - [Andy] No. - Can't that wasn't a good idea. (laughs)

226
00:16:55,430 --> 00:17:01,230
Oh, I have a little twisty here though. Sport mode. (Alexander groans)

227
00:17:01,230 --> 00:17:04,940
Yeah. You're not whipping it around corners,

228
00:17:04,940 --> 00:17:09,010
it's certainly no Fiesta ST. Finally the price.

229
00:17:09,010 --> 00:17:15,290
This one right here is in British Columbia, in Canadian dollars, $65,000

230
00:17:15,490 --> 00:17:19,010
and for that I would buy a Tesla probably.

231
00:17:19,010 --> 00:17:23,830
I'm not a huge Tesla fan but if those are my options, yeah.

232
00:17:23,830 --> 00:17:27,210
That said, I would easily buy this over an RD4.

233
00:17:27,210 --> 00:17:31,530
So the Kia EV6, it's quite a good car

234
00:17:31,530 --> 00:17:34,840
with just so many tiny little screw up

235
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,630
that, I don't know, I don't like it in the end.

236
00:17:38,630 --> 00:17:42,090
Like even just little things like we have these dedicated buttons here

237
00:17:42,090 --> 00:17:46,340
that you can change to whatever you want except that it isn't really whatever I want.

238
00:17:46,340 --> 00:17:49,423
Like we have a steering wheel button here for

239
00:17:49,423 --> 00:17:54,430
I put it to quiet mode, which turns off the back speakers for your children

240
00:17:54,430 --> 00:17:58,150
to sleep. That might be useful maybe.

241
00:17:58,150 --> 00:18:03,160
(laughs) The other mode button here, they were so useless that I ended up just setting it

242
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,690
to sounds of nature. (bird chirping)

243
00:18:06,690 --> 00:18:11,610
It was the one that I felt was the funniest so I just kind of threw it away on a gag.

244
00:18:11,610 --> 00:18:16,807
Oh, and there also were fake engine sounds, I just turned those off. I was kind of driving around being like,

245
00:18:16,807 --> 00:18:21,097
"Why is it so loud?" And it was just the speakers being like

246
00:18:21,097 --> 00:18:24,112
(screaming) the whole time. (Andy laughs)

247
00:18:24,112 --> 00:18:27,900
So, yeah, the Kia EV6 makes me want to

248
00:18:27,900 --> 00:18:31,220
drive the IONIQ 5 really bad. Sorry, Kia.

249
00:18:31,220 --> 00:18:37,180
Better luck next time. Okay, good note to end on. I liked it more than the Audi e-tron.

250
00:18:37,180 --> 00:18:43,353
Mostly because it's way less expensive. Hit like, get subscribed, and just have a fantastic day.
