I reached out to my (old) dealership about that yesterday. Still waiting…

Yes you will get a prorated refund. Based on your dealers behavior make sure the request is in writing as that would set the date it was prorated to. Also, and I do not know how it works on a refund, the dealer marks-up the price of the extended warranty so make sure you get back that portion too.

Glad you’re ok and enjoy the EV6.

I hope anyone who reads thinks twice before shopping at Conshohocken Ford, PA.

Sorry for your loss of the GT. How does the trunk space compare between the two now that you have had hands on experience with both?

I had the PPF in the front and the rest was ceramic coated.

The trunk is a little smaller but not so much that it’s a problem. The Storage space however, is non existent. The frunk storage is a joke and the space under the trunk area is maybe 2 inches deep, if that. Very disappointing

Good decision getting one sooner than later. EV6 GT 0-60 is 3.5s. Nothing beats that charging speed, it really helps beat range anxiety. Ride quality in the Korean evs is definitely not bouncy. Maybe you can get a second tax rebate too.

The EV6 GT isn’t out yet. I have the GT-Line which is quick but at 4.6 0-60, not quite as fast as my MME. The EV6 GT is due out sometime later this year. At that point, if I can sell my car at cost, I’ll consider the upgrade…

Ok. I am not that smart. But I was thinking it was the front corner by the picture. But I have traded cars after minor fender bender. Damn sucks such an awesome car too. Glad you are ok though

It was mainly the front right, the impact broke the axel and bent the frame. Just think, this is from a swipe. He was traveling 60-70 mph when this happened. Any more than a swipe and I may have been totaled too! Side note: that black piece sticking out of the wheel well in the 1st pic? That’s a part of his door…you can also see my PPF in the same pic (near the bottom right). It doesn’t seem like it’s unfixable. However, once the frame gets bent, that when future problems can arise.

Its only a car - glad everyone is okay, that's what matters.

While i know the EV6 isnt equal to the GT - you cant beat the value proposition kia gives. great warranty, free charging and a heat-pump / better efficiency (which = lower cost for home charging)

Glad you're OK and a cop was there to witness the whole thing.

As frivolous as it may be, there's at least some value to the paint protection. A friend bought a Genesis recently. In addition to those "options", his dealer had the audacity to charge a $3000 *disinfectant fee*. I'd be less insulted if it was a straight up market adjustment.

The current Hyundai/Kia techs are truly impressive. I'm taking delivery of a Hyundai PHEV in a couple of weeks.

I am shocked there are people out there that like the GT wheels. I had new wheels picked out before I even picked up my GT and ordered them the day after I picked the car up. I had them on within a week.

I love that EV6, the color of yours is very nice! Two people bought the only two EV6's in Memphis (at the time) as my wife was buying her Niro EV last month, they came from a couple of states over to do it.

The lack of wireless AA is a bummer, but they do sell dongles now that will help with that -- Motorola has one that seems to always be out of stock, and another called AAWireless is "available", but may take a while to ship. My wife's Niro EV also lacks wireless AA (I guess the size of the screen is what they claim as a reason it isn't available .. which makes no sense), so I plan to gift her that AA dongle soon.

Damn what was buy back on the totaled mach e I want it

Glad you're ok, too bad you couldn't get another. I think the EV6 is butt ugly and could never in a million years buy one but hope you're happy with it I've heard great reviews mostly.

Good thing we all don’t like the same thing….imagine how bland the world would be. My fav looking EV is the Genesis GV60 if I’m honest.

The EV6 will do for now.
