Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Kia EV6
- Large 84kWh battery pack. Real world range will be upwards of 500km.
- Exciting performance. 0-100kmph in just 5.3 seconds, as claimed.
- Feature loaded: twin 12.3-inch screens, 14-speaker Meridian audio system, head-up display, 360° camera, ADAS - everything you want from a luxury car.
- Strong safety package with 8 airbags and Level 2 ADAS.
BMW iX1
- Great rear seat legroom, easily the best in class
- Exceptional interior material quality and finish
- Real-world range of around 400 km is more than enough
- Comfortable and plush ride quality

Kia EV6
- Interior might not feel as luxurious as German cars in a similar price bracket.
- Raised floor leads to a ‘knees up’ seating position both at the front and rear.
- High price tag since it’s a full import. Rivals such as the BYD Sealion 7 and BMW iX1 are substantially cheaper.
BMW iX1
- Less features for the price, doesn’t get ventilated front seats, a 360-degree camera, and adaptive cruise control
- Lack of physical buttons for AC and regenerative braking
