We just posted our review of the Kia EV6 GT-Line. Priced at RM300K, the EV6 GT-Line costs RM20K more than the Ioniq 5 Max with the optional 5 year extended warranty. Is it a better car overall? Watch the video: ua-cam.com/video/t7YS_5lGr9w/v-deo.html
I've always wanted to try 1 of these fully electric Cars that's currently available BUT am just too sceptical about the Charging & Battery-Life, kinda feel that Malaysia still too far back for these EV's. 😬 p/s: Charging = where to charge IF suddenly "kong" while driving on a road trip & how much more gotta pay if charge from Home then Battery-Life = will it explode if meet any accident / how long will it last / how much the cost to replace 1
Having driven EVs, totally understand where you're coming from. With EVs, you will have to change the way you drive, where efficiency and maximising the mileage you can get out of every charge is the focus. You'll start to plan your drives better as well to include charging points at your destinations. EVs drivers will try to avoid running out of charge as much as possible but if that happens, you can arrange to get the vehicle towed (on a flatbed truck) to the nearest charging station to get it charged sufficiently to return home. Granted, the charging infrastructure in Malaysia still needs work but even if you're averaging 400km a week, you'll probably only need to charge your EVs once or twice a week and the cost is definitely much cheaper than petrol or diesel. Regards to the battery exploding during a crash, I've attended a session with Kia where they explained that EV battery have been designed to be safe specifically for this reason. It to say that combustion engine cars with a full load of volatile and flamable petrol is also safe and unlikely to explode during a crash. -- Amin
Great comprehensive review guys … thumbs up to you all 👍🏻👍🏻.

Can the recliner function for the Passanger be used while driving ?
solve the waiting period issue first
( as when i tested this car they told me Max need to wait for a year )
Agreed. Many prospect buyers decided on something else because the wait time is ridiculous. No matter how good the car, customers just can't wait.
I think you miss your chances during your ad earlier, should say that you can get free soyacincau from our coffee shop🤣
Good suggestion!
Unless you go for eqs this and ev6 pretty much the best
Kia EV6 is a close competition.

Impressive. Like to get one.
It's certainly one of the best EVs today. The problem is getting one. In Malaysia, the waiting list is indefinite.
