It seems like it's rough to live in 😬 I love snow, but, yikes!

Thanks!

tats need

Glad you liked it!

It wasn’t planned 😂

Real world? Not everyone lives in snow , there is no real world review like all those 98% Ford 150 who will never going to tow anything

A lot bigger though than the Soul. How’s your range after 100k kms?

ho preety so you know my love it were is your ctue kids to @ therewere door bolly so you know

nice work even one thats ctue and funnyv to @ the sometime its how log you have is just Quneen so you know

Thanks!🙏

thats preey so you know

It's not a rebate, it's a tax credit. Surprised more people aren't waiting for them to be made in US to take advantage of the tax credit. The Georgia factory should start making them by the last quarter of 2024. $52k for an EV9 is great

Do you miss the tech from the Model X? Was just checking out a friends Model S today and man it’s pretty impressive how well their system works. Even the sentry system is amazing.

We still have a model Y and Tesla’s software is amazing. With that said we love apple carplay :) and Kia’s software is intuitive and really fast. Their app isn’t bad either. Our past BMW’s have been good but our Range Rover sport, Jaguar and a Ram, all had bugs and the software features were lacking. Kia’s tech feels the closet to Rivian and Tesla. The Kia feels more comfortable to drive than the model X and I do like having regen options in the Kia. Tesla’s is always on. It also doesn’t hurt to drive something different amongst a sea of teslas. I couldn’t find a German made 3 row ice vehicle under 90k so with a great lease deal, the Kia was a no brainer for us.

Can I be nosey and ask what your monthly lease payment is for your EV9?

@@user-ji6jb8tj7z it’s really close to the out of state - lease deal shown on Out of Spec’s first review of the EV9. At about 29:43 mark. Note: Lease deals (Money Factor) has changed a bit since Jan. Out Of Spec - go to 29:43. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qbxji7KaqKiVpHk.htmlfeature=shared

Exactly

Glad it was helpful!

ho wow insaides the show thatshard thats coolr to so thation s so you know

thats need so you know

Wondering the tires as well

They’re Pirelli Scorpion Winters tires.

For sure you won’t have any issue in Eastern Quebec with this. Our snow here is very slick as well

Very impresed by these tires, thanks!@@EverydayReviews2022

You will have a big depreciation on your Ev6. Why jump now?

I probably would just because the size is a little more manageable for day to day uses however you can’t beat the ride comfort, the power capabilities and that frunk on the Lightning.

I have a Hyundai Ioniq 5 and I can tell you that when it is freezing cold, you lose around 20% of range. I have not noticed a drop of range overnight when parked because of the cold.

@@swyang68 thats fair i guess. i saw a guy who got locked out of his tesla at a ski resort and car wouldnt even unlock because of full discharge. He had to get power from an old car and push to the charging station

You and me both!

Winter tires

The EV9 and Model X are definitely not made for any offroad driving. The ride height is too low, for one. But the AWD and heavy weight make them capable in the snow with decent tires for sure. The Rivian R1S is an excellent off-road EV SUV though, that's a different animal.

For sure not a real off roader. Dirt roads no problem like we took them in Arizona but if you want electric off tossing, leave it to the Rivian. Think of this like a sporty minivan with lots of features.

Pirelli Scorpions

@@EverydayReviews2022 the Snow version?

@@isuzu14b yes Scorpion winter

Yes

Yes, winter tires.

Yeah depends where you live and if you get rebates. If you compare top line to top line, the EV9 comes out under 10 K more with B.C. rebates in Canada. Can be even more depending on where you are.

No. 6 or 7

It's a review. It's not personal

All car doors and door handles freeze regardless of car brand

​@@CodyChathe design of some door handles, and how water/snow/ice drain from the roof and windows make some far more prone to freezing than others.

If you don’t like review just pass on, no need to comment. We are here to hear others experiences and decide what works best for us.

You got that right. My old house which is 40 years older had a much larger garage for a smaller house even.

Pirelli Scorpion Winter tires

@@EverydayReviews2022 Awesome, thanks!

That’s exactly what I said. 200 miles= 320 kms. That was in about -2c average temperature in normal mode with heated seats, wheel and climate set at 22c /72f.

In a norwegian range test with very wintery conditions I believe they got more than 400kms. Speeds makes such a difference.

When you come from IONIQ5 - YES!!

Build quality, charging speed, HUD ( oh yeah Tesla has no HUD) is so much better on Kia...oh and parking sensors lol actually exist on the Kia.

Wow you drive a lot! If you’re doing more than that often then EV is not for you. We only charge about 1-2 times a week max and rarely get under 50%. Which trim did you get?

@@EverydayReviews2022 if i drive this car, will need to charge daily. Well my wife will drive, but i regret that I bought it! I got 2023 bmw 760i $95 for full tAnk and I like the fact that it’s good for me for good 2-3 days.

@@inshape1872 How long is your commute? OMG that’s so many miles. Are doing ride share?

Did you get the long range or standard range?

@@EverydayReviews2022 no. All cars for me, i use for business driving and I love to relax

Agree. We have some of the best new car deals around because of our dollar plus this qualifies for all our rebates as well. Rivian much more $$$ in Canada though. Absolutely loved the R1S but I just don’t like one pedal driving and having no option to completely turn it off is a pass for me. My daughter gets sick when there’s a noticeable amount of regen braking regardless how smooth you drive.

Thanks also to the 2015 Canada-Korea Free Trade Agreement that helps us to have reduced price for Korean cars.@@EverydayReviews2022

There is the 2015 Canada-Korea Free Trade Agreement that help to reduce Korean car prices

Just curious where you got that information? That seems unusually high considering the Ioniq 5 cost less than $60k. Keep in mind, a Tesla Model S battery pack replacement was sub $20k a few years back. There is greater supply today and battery costs are lower so, how could Kia's cost be 3 fold more than that today? I'm genuinely curious.

He don't know abut real technology for family ev car. First, range and efficiency. Second, Fast charging. Over 30 minutes for charging is not easy for family car(esp. winter and hot summer). Third, motor power is not important for family car. Fourth, EV9 have the newest battery technology. Do you know which country has a world best battery manufacturers?

Hmm interesting. I thought the R1S is 100k atleast. I have to look at the numbers again. US and Canada has different rebates as well. I hope the prices go down though and nacs soon

In Canada, the cheapest Rivian R1S is $116.5k new. Flippers are selling quad motor 2023 models in the $130k range. The base model EV9 Light RWD is just under $60k. The full load GT-Line is somewhere around $79k… but this is before the market adjustments some Kia dealers will tack on. I remember someone posting on Reddit the dealer he dealt with tried to fleece him for $10k extra on top and he walked 😣

@@Fabulousprofound168 yeah that's the problem with dealers. I think there is something in the works for Korean makers and Amazon. That'll be the day! I'm not sold with these big family vehicle EVs though. The way I use them for, EV is not good enough. I guess the tech and infrastructure is not there yet.

I'm not sure where you are getting your numbers. The cheapest Rivian R1s on paper would be the dual motor noon-performance silver with standard battery for $78K. The Kia GT-Line MSRP starts at $73,900 before the incentives. So with the $3,750 cash or finance incentive that would be $70,150, well below the Rivian starting price of $78,000. And I have never heard of ANYONE getting the Standrad battery on the RIvian, which increases the practical starting price to $84,000 for the silver with large pack. You can increase the cost of the GT-Line with options, but you can do the same for the Rivian and they generally cost more for the Rivian. For example, let's upgrade both to blue. This will cost you an added $695 on the EV9 and $2,500 on the R1S. Now let's upgrade the interior finish -- $495 on the EV9, $2,000 n the R1s. The only upgrade that you can do on the EV9 that doesn't have a counterpart would be the second row relaxation seats for $2,000, and they are totally unnecessary -- you get the captains seats included in the base GT-Line cost so all that adds is power folding and footrests on a kid could enjoy. And all this is before you can deal with Kia to go below MSRP, which is quite common. My R1s order is $86.5K (for dual, large, blue). I can get a blue EV9 GT-Line for $70K right now from multiple dealers, or even less with a larger lease incentive. So in practice this are more like $15K apart. Don't get me wrong, I asbolutely love the Rivian. It's got better range, larger screen and better UI, air suspension, better off-roading and more cargo capacity. But the Kia has CarPlay/AA, paddle-shifting variable regen control, LCD rear view, much better driver asst, second row captains seat option, HUD, physical buttons for climate control, more useful fixed steering wheel buttons, and a drivers massage seat, among other plusses, and nets about $15K cheaper in the real world.

It does quality for EV rebates here in canada so buyers can get up to 12K off which for sure lessens the blow and brings it into the 60’s for the top trim.

bmw/audi/merc? lol. so basically ICE brands that cost a bomb at the garage and you spend more upkeeping? While i don't think EV are the best future, at least KIA is pushing for progress, plus the 7yr warranty kicks sand at those traditional ICE brand models.

There also a full review I. The video description as I mentioned. This was second time with it and wanted to share real world experience after a week with it. Actually can’t stand listening to my own voice. Who does?😂

​@EverydayReviews2022 I wouldn't respond to comments like this lol. But that's just me.

Horrid 🤣 what do you drive 🤔

Your mom!
