Video Summary

Okay, here is a summary of the YouTube video:

The Kia EV6 is a dedicated all-electric car with the all-new E-GMP platform that journalists were blown away by.

A long-range bigger battery rear-wheel drive model with a GT-Line trim, does extensive range testing.

The EV6 delivers a frunk that is roughly about 0.5 cubic feet of space.

The tester has a rear drive so no motor up front.

This GT-Line trim version comes standard with a bigger battery pack of 77.4 kWh; with a single motor at the rear axle giving rear-wheel drive with 225 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque.

The middle engine option or middle powertrain option.

The base light version of this car has a 58 kWh battery pack and only around 168 hp.

The GT does have an engine added to the front axle.

It will launch with the full-on GT, with even more beefed up versions of the motor, with all-wheel drive as standard and a bigger battery pack.

That'll deliver around 576 hp which will do 0–60 in under 3.5 seconds.

Power output goes through a one-speed reduction gear transmission.

The range king is rated at 310 miles on a full charge.

Towing maximum of 2300 pounds.

It can charge from 10 to 80% in only 18 minutes if they can find a 350-kilowatt fast charger.

It can power household devices with an included cord.

The car is four thousand two hundred and fifty-five pounds

The styling is an attractive almost futuristic looking design with unique looks to tell it apart from the Hyundai Ioniq.

Headlights are full LEDs, an upper and lower day running light portion, the outer with an LED turn signal, and the GT line.

The door handles pop in and out, black painted mirrors, panoramic style roof that actually opens, and black cladding along the side of the vehicle.

The wheelbase measures 114 inches long, similar to Kia's Telluride.

6 in. of ground clearance.

Interior has black Alcantara seats with white contrast stitching, though nothing about the interior screams luxury.

It has two 12-inch displays that create a curved piece of glass and a quick-responding system, though wireless CarPlay isn't included.

This version lacks a heated steering wheel or pump and, compared to Tesla, the model needs a heat pump.

14 Meridian Speaker System

24 cubic feet of space or about 50.
The door is power operated.

This electric car has great tech, but should have had wireless Apple CarPlay.

It feels built for somebody who enjoys driving.

The EV6 is generally considered one of the best-looking EVs, and it's really fun.

The base model starts at around $40,900.
