A Quebec family loading up for a July drive to the cottage knows the real test isn’t the destination. It’s the four or five hours in between. Kids get restless, adults get stiff, and a flat bench seat in the second row doesn’t help either one. The 2027 Kia Carnival’s available VIP Lounge second row is built around that exact stretch of highway. What Is the VIP Lounge Second Row? On the...
The Tesla Model 3 is the best-selling electric car in history... so far. You can't take anything away from it. However, we know that for a long time, many consumers turned to it because there were no better options on the market.
Times have changed. Simply put, at Kia, we have several all-electric solutions that are far more interesting than the Tesla Model 3.
Let's take a look at one of them with the new EV6. Here are three good reasons to choose it before thinking about Tesla.
Design and build quality
Tesla's Model 3 isn't an ugly car, but we agree, its design doesn't reinvent anything and it's similar to all the other products from the brand.
With the EV6, Kia has just shown the world that it is still one of the leaders in design. People turn around on the street when they see an EV6 go by.
And there's something to be said for build quality. With Tesla, the story is known, it's uneven and it's still not up to par. With Kia, it's all about quality. A simple comparison of the two models will quickly show that.
The dealer network
By choosing an EV6, you benefit from a well-established dealer network. If something goes wrong with your car, it's easy to find help quickly. With Tesla, you have to deal with stores and customer service that don't just get rave reviews.
The price
While the two models we're comparing are similarly priced in base trim, you only have to go up the line to realize that the best value is at Kia.
In fact, if you want a full-featured, reasonably-priced model that's worth what you get in terms of quality, Kia is where you'll find it, not Tesla.
Stop by and take an EV6 for a test drive. You'll also realize that this car has nothing to envy to its competitors on the road.
