I want a carwow drag race!
Yes
If all cars launch controlled the kia gets wrecked
all of them did launch control
it's a real race. You work for audi and you afraid of Kia performace and price. Hasta la vista
yeeeee
This is by far the most interesting EV to me, I cant wait to test drive one
Have you gotten to drive one yet? Bought one last month. It’s awesome❤
Really impressive job KIA. Imagine you guys made Stinger coupe with the same tech? It would be hot commodity if it were sensibly priced.
That Stinger design reminds you so much of an Aston Martin!!!!
I was just say that if I can't get a ev stinger I will take this in a heartbeat
The stinger was overpriced.
I wanted to get one,but when the price was revealed i passed on it.
It should of been a loaded 40k car out the door.
@@bigdi77 A EV Stinger is my dream.. :o
@@xxZerosumxx it was heavily discounted towards the end of year, i know some people got a deal at around 38k fully loaded
The fact fact they had the dignity to show themselves losing the race says about their Integrity. In a good way.
Kia didn't lose the race. That was the California T.
@@trafficlaw29 Maybe that was the wrong word. I should've said coming in 2nd my bad
@C J B As all car companies do. 99.9% of people that buy any car will NEVER be able to get the 0 to 60 times manufacturers quote. They use professional drivers, car has 1/4 tank of gas, on a track. Dodge is the worst for it.
Electric cars. It's pretty easy for anyone to get their quoted times. they're idiot proof
@C J B you're kind of right
@C J B I didn't see any prep
nice of them to admit defeat to the 570s, props to you kia. first the stinger and then this!
looking forward to it
Still launched the hardest and fatest
This is actually pretty nice
Not to brag but just came from the dealer ship with mine after waiting for them to be in stock forever. The video doesn't do it justice it is insane how fast it is. I say this as somebody with track and auto cross time. Can't think of anything under 100k and stock that can touch it.
Enjoy!
You must not have any real drag race experience. The 2023 Corvette ZR1 would wipe the floor with that piece of s*** Kia the 2024 Dodge Demon 170 would absolutely decimate that Kia. The Dodge Demon 170 goes from 0 to 60 in 1.7 seconds. I'll even give Tesla props and I hate Tesla's, but, the Tesla Coupe would wipe the floor with that Kia. All these TV commercials make these kids look big and bad they are garbage as far as street racing and high- performance. Electric cars are not going to be the wave of the future. The combustion engine will always win. I can find five or six videos each for for the statistics on the demon 170. The demon is about $30,000 more expensive than the $61,000 Kia but it's much more worth it
Badge snobs: Easy mode...haha
Kia: whos laughing now? 🤔
Wow that's awesome Good Job KIA
C'est un truc de fou,comment elle a pulvérisé la plupart des voitures de luxe sportives! 👏👍
c la triche. en effet la plage optimale d'utilisation du moteur électrique est jusqu'à 100km/h au delà le moteur vas subir une diminution de puissance donc cette video n'est que la moitié de la réalité la preuve si tu cherche les performance de Tesla, Porsche Tycan sur google de leur accélération de 0à200kh/h eh bah tu pas pas trouvé (parce qu'ils n'ont pas) ... en plus à cause du échauffement des batteries les voitures électriques ne peut faire cette performance que dans des conditions optimales si on répète cette course une autre fois de suite et bah on vas surement obtenir de résultat différente (comme aussi il est difficile de maintenir la même vitesse sur autoroute je veux dire tu vas voir ta vitesse diminué sans décélérer)
@@cactusman1 exactement, c'est vrai, les moteurs thermiques ont des trous pendant l'accélération et de se fait ils ne sont pas constant pendant la phase d'accélération ,le moteur électrique est plus constant !
Il y'as des vidéos de kart électrique qui ont une sacrée accélération.
@@cactusman1 c'est vrai pour l'instant
That was soo quick ! But only the Mclaren cross the line first. I can't wait to see Tesla model X vs Kia EV6 :-)
The McLaren is much smaller and lighter. That KIA is a heavy crossover.
Model X is no better performance but is much more expensive. It's good to see someone else's take on the electric car.
McLaren ist the only car that you could call a race car in this line up
the urus is quicker than the ev6, this is bs.
@@mortensenvick5711 it's really close when it comes to 0 - 60s, the urus is 3.6sec (I've seen it go in 3.57sec on road tests) but the ev6 can go 0 - 60 in a little less than 3.5sec. The hp and tq of the urus is much greater though so I'm sure in a decent drag race it will pull through and beat the ev6. (Little side note, Can't forget that the ev6 will be much cheaper to maintain. It honestly still baffles me that a kia is causing this much controversy.)
Absolutely amazing I can’t wait for my dad to bring one home haha
Everyone laughed at Kia when they first showed up... well who's laughing *now,* Porsche and Ferrari?
you even trust this bs? lol
I doubt any Lamborghini, Ferrari, Porsche buyers even care. They probably get a lucid or plaid . Kia is comming up, but not on those guys road when buying a car.
They conveniently picked the Porche and Ferrari which aren't designed for acceleration. Let me see it go against a 918 Spyder then we'll talk
@@johnnyCham12 I think this is to show 'regular' people that they can buy a vehicle that can keep pace with supercars. Not to steal customers that are looking at a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. :)
@@ronnie_5150
KIA Power 💪🏼
Hello, I'm a strict uncle in Korea.. I'm canceling the contract for Ionic 5 right away.. Kia's ev6 is there 😍
"Strict uncle" rofl
why don't you buy a nice chienese ev instead? kia is crap
WOW ! You can buy four KIA EV6 than buying one McLaren
Wow! That's impressive! Never like a kia till now!
Why they not put this Electric Motor plus stinger3.3 Motor together that can be a Beats
Nice kia 💪😎
If you ain’t first you’re last 😂
me : Hey! those are not supercars!
people : Have you checked your bank account?
me : Uh..right. those are hyper ultimate supercars.
Jesus Christ... The only one of those I would call a supercar is maybe the 570S and MAYBE the AMG GT... These are sports cars. Not the world's fastest supercars.
Yeah, and still, I'm pretty sure they paid big bucks for a head start.
regular AMG GT is not a supercar, the AMG GTR would be tho
@@jbrennan381 Pay who big bucks for a head start? Rofl you know the details on how fast the car is will be released soon, right?
@@trstnhn McLaren and Ferrari. No I haven't bothered to look them up.
Put this engine and tech into a sedan or a coupe and I would buy it.
It's a 4 door right?
yes. There is Isofix for the baby car seat.
It's like they are indirectly promoting McLaren as well 😂
Cause if they only chose and showed cars that they knew would lose, people would complain that it was unfair...
"Buy a McLaren! It's slightly faster than a Kia!"
@@cn2673 except price, running costs, emissions, practicality, ease of use, noise levels, etc...
Combustion is dead. I'm reminded of the "Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power" meme.
@@cn2673 like you'd service your own McLaren... Hardly a rights violation; you want to service your own EV? Go ahead and get qualified to a safe standard. That's a safety issue. As for range, filling stations are already starting to disappear. With 300 miles of range, the EV6 has more range than a human needs before taking a break anyway.
@@cn2673 my electric car manages just fine in hot and cold conditions. If anything, they're better because they can be preconditioned in such circumstances. A 10 second Google search tells me you're wrong about electric aeroplanes. Stop swallowing the fossil-fuel lobby propaganda. Electric is objectively better. I was a massive petrolhead, owned various V6s and even a V10. I can now see how wrong I was.
Just watched real drag race in carwow, KIA leading the race
It proves that McLaren RWD with less power and an engine with turbo lag was quicker than an EV with 585hp and AWD...
Waiting for ev9
Supercar performance at a fraction of the price.
No available M3P in Korea? 🙄
That's the car america needs because who needs to go further than 400meters
The world is bigger than just America you know. Or maybe you don't know, that wouldn't surprise me.
@@JC130676 and the bigger it is the longer you will be wasting time recharging your duracells
daniel that doesn't make sense honestly. America is a large country and travel distances from one destination to another tend to be quite far compared to other countries.
@@danielbreedlove7522 you're a climate denier and anti-vaxxer too I'm guessing?
@@danielpark7821 nope the climate exists...and I got my vaccine months ago.
NGL, they cherry picked some "slow" supercars, but that URUS does 0-60 in 3.6s
A Urus is 10* the price
Are you saying the cherry-picked cars are garbage? No. I think they showed cars the KIA could beat in a drag race and used these cars as a measure.
@@Amayi1 who said garbage ? I'm pretty sure I said slow 🤦♂️
urus is been clocked as low as 3.0 seconds on 0'-60 mph. this video is bullshit and the urus is at least half sec quicker at 60 than this ev6.
@@mortensenvick5711 for only $218,000 you can buy an Urus
I was like no way is that Kia beating a super car
its a fake race we need carwow here
Nope nearly 600BHP, got one!
Boooooom
Is this even CLOSE to being accurate?? I'm not seeing anything NEAR these numbers on Kia's website..?
Now do vs the Teslas and Corvettes/GT/GT500/Aventador
Put in a supercar in the race also and see how it ends
How is it in -20C?
i think it will be okay. do not doubt battery tech in korea.(LG, SAMSUNG, SK)
Korean battery companies are literally benchmarks. I’m sure it can handle and Korean temp goes -20 during the winter so yeah..
@@PK-eo8kp Should have been more specific, I meant a consistent -20. I live in Edmonton, its -20 from December to March with cold snaps closer to -40 like this year! I'm also certain the Kia can handle Korean winter, where the avg temp is -4 in the coldest month...
@@reeferbeard5140 That's crazy how cold it is over there.. I don't think anyone in YT knows the answer to that hahah
Nobody drives those other cars when it’s that cold out, either, haha.
Hey guys...can you give me a head start...?
Is it really that quick.
Hyundai group ev car
Ev6 gt line- 325HP 4.7~4.9sec 2055kg
Gv60- 420+60HP 4.00~4.2sec 2160kg
Ev6 gt- 584HP 3.3~3.5sec (?)
I didn't see a Bugatti Chiron out there
Love ours
Well let's talk physics. Electric cars gets torque instantly which makes their acceleration quick. But not faster in top end.
Top speed is 260 km/h or 161 mph so it's not exactly slow. How often does anyone drive at that speed? I'd gladly accept a top speed of 100mph as long as the car has blistering acceleration and is glued to the road in corners, that'll allow for much more driving fun than just pure speed. Also the Kia is a car you can actually use since it has decent seating room and luggage capacity, and can actually pull a trailer. Imagine showing up at a Porsche dealer, buying a 911 and then saying "Oh yeah, could you please fit a tow bar?" 🤣
@@JC130676 Superduke vs H2R. If we talk acceleration superduke has great window between 0-100, does that make H2R a useless bike? As they talked about speed so did I. If they would have talked about more practicality on daily use, then sure it's a great deal. 👍 They should have kept roadster too, and then see where does it stand. Wanna have competition have it right.
@@vicky19965 model s tri motor is trapping above gas cars in its speed class aka a 765lt. Taycan is the same idea. Top end isn't going to be an issue. If your dragging above 180+ your not on public roads 😂
Who really cares about top end speed for road use and stoplight racing unless you have a tarmac to race on?
Exactly right. Which is why I sold my Audi RS and bought an EV.
TRUTH IN ADVERTISING. they show it beating all comers off the line but finishing a close 2nd to McLaren at the checkers (with it almost beaten by a 911 if the test went another 50ft). so they're not bragging that they're faster than everybody... just faster than YOU...!!!
Kia is not joking at all!
It was a video where McLaren stood out. Embarrassing KIA
👏 👏 👏 👏 👍
mclaren570s(us200,000) vs. kia ev6 gt(us42,000)...
McLaren sounds better, looks better, drives better, and full ups (recharging) takes 4 mins....
And has two doors &much smaller space. Tumultuous as well.
If the ev6 GT was US 42k, I'd buy two of them...no way. Try double that
@@madkins1868 I'm guessing $50k loaded, at ,13-26cents per eq 30mi. It would still be cheaper to OWN and OPERATE.
I doubt a McLaren shopper is going to be cross shopping an ev6. Same the other way.
When people ask my why a want an electric car, i send them this video! The acceleration you get from an electric car is just unmatched!
Are you kidding? Electric cars are the biggest pieces of s*** out there. The combustion engine will always be faster than the electric. The Dodge Demon 170 their most recent and last Edition, Woodsmoke everything on that line and already has. The Dodge Demon is not even a supercar and it still beats all those cars. I can find at least six or seven videos a Peace on the ass Whoopins of all those cars by the Dodge Demon
Lets be clear, this is VERY impressive but, come on, "the worlds fastest supercars"? None of those are even the fastest car the manufacturer makes. Lamborghini URAS? 911 Targa? Ferrari California? McLaren 570?
The ev6 is pretty fast but who chose the 911 targa and not the 'normal ' 911?
Bizarrement il n'y a pas d'Audi ou de Bugatti
World's fastest supercars? Then proceeds to show the slowest variants from each manufacturer 😂😂
True, but are those cars any less awesome? No. So then, yes, Kia... 😂😂 So what's your point? Don't answer that. It's rhetorical.
Kia EV 6 only good KIA car
Petrol can't beat electricity
The mclaren obviously won, petrol cars are so much better
@@Tayzer74, what, you again with that "petrol cars are better BS??" However, I disagree with you and the person you responded to. Both of you are too friggin dogmatic to appreciate both types of cars without being snobs.
Hmm yes maybe they win on a quarter mile drag. But think the fact that they never advertise their electric cars around a track. Even so. Petrol cars can go to 0 to 200 mph in 1.2 seconds but the government says they are not road legal
The Porsche was gaining fast and would have passed the Kia had it had another hundred feet or so.
Urus 0-100 is 3.6 and Kia claims it's gt to go 0-100 in 3.5 yet urus falls behind quickly some doesn't add up
So the Urus loses? What's your point?
@@Andrew-cb2mo urus falls 0.4 seconds behind in this
Ok, easy, easy : come now 24 hours at Le Mans ............
Well.... then they will use the detachable batteries. Actually, it is already being used for electric bikes.
Actually its a McLaren ad
The world fastest supercars? are you kidding me? those are the base models of those cars, put a turbo s in there and let's see which one's faster
Really? The "World's fastest supercars"? Who named that?
Why don't we ever see ev's in a race in fueling speed?
Because you can charge EV at home while you are sleeping but you need to go gas station anyway to fill up the other car. If your destination is not far more than 250 miles.
Because nobody cares?
LOL
Why is that important? An EV you can refuel at home while sleeping, at work while sleeping, or at the mall while shopping. You can even refuel it while taking a big dump on any interstate gasstation, sitting in the nice and cozy warm toilet while your car refuels on its own. Not like fossil cars, standing in the rain at -10°, hurricane winds blowing full buckets of water in your face...
Worlds fastest super cars??
Bullshit. Not even close.
McLaren has mad top end speed
Fast 200 metres and then...
because of its shape. Air drag is getting stronger when a car is running faster. if the EV6 GT design is slick like Mclaren, GT would win.
It still takes 3.5 seconds according to Kia lol they could’ve done better
Zaorałaś te kupę AMG juhu!
Am I going crazy or did I hear nfsmw 2005 sound effect at the end of the race??
you hear it :)
I bet you enjoy your bad credit - challenger.
This is April's fool video?
No this is Kia's (or Hyundai, for that matter) progress from being a POS in the late 1990s to being one of the greatest car manufacturers ever, right up there with Volkswagen, Toyota, Ford and others! Time has evolved!
@@dinohermann1887 I'm kidding, I'm sorry. :)
I cross checked the porche's specs and it goes from 0-100 in 2.8 while ev6 claims 3.5. This video is sketchy
At least they weren’t lying about it not being the fast
Macleran 720s win
Funny how even in a promo video for Kia the McLaren still wins!
Honesty
Compare the price. You can buy 3~4 of EV6 instead buying 1 of McLaren. Also EV6 is 100% electric car without any emission. Who is going to be smart?
@@rafiktony3190 agree
And much larger inner space and trunk.
Not funny. Impressive that an EV costing a fraction of McLaren can keep up in 1/4 mile run
The pricelist of Kia ev6 says driving range of GT model is 400 km, not 500km. Normal AWD 77kwh model gets 490 km on the 20inch wheels, so I would expect the 21 inchers on the GT model to roll slightly worse + the extra 200 hp motors are heavier. Probably it will be also on wider profile sticky tires.
It came second so it technically isn’t that good so yeah petrol cars win once again.
Isn't that good...SMH, What a lame-ass response. If you are gonna be an egotistical ICE snob, I can point you to the Tesla Plaid that will wipe that smug right off your face with win after win against petrol cars. And this is coming from a fan of all car/vehicle types. I can appreciate EVs and ICE cars, unlike some people.
There’s no substitute for cubic inches
And btw who won. Yep a mclaren 570s won. That car is literally not even that fast. The cars they displayed as the world’s fastest super cars Are not. They are coupes and low end affordable older super cars. Not the fastest cars.
I do appreciate electric cars but I just like petrol cars. I just prefer the noise and the cool designs
Cute petite Asian takes on group of European
I reckon the drives of the other cars weren’t even flat out to make people buy the electric Kia.
To be fair it should also race 400miles against a 1972 datsun b210 on an interstate.
존네요...
@V V 넌왜왓냐
그러게
FAKE DRAG RACE! FALSE ADVERTISEMENT! A Ferarri F355 from the 90s easily beat this SLOW EV in a 1/4 mile on the CarWow YT channel. KIA hold this L...
Kidding me? Unreal.
ok, just so we're clear, those other are objectively NOT the "world's fastest supercars" but apparently nobody cares 😄
I'd say "accessible" super cars.
I don't think it matters. For a family SUV to hold its own in this crowd is epic
Show me someone who purchases the Kia EV 6 and I'll show you someone who hasn't done their homework.
🤣 They make the most efficient EV'S out there.
@@johnfrench9608 Tell me that's not your only measuring stick.
No its not they also give the longest most comprehensive warranty out there.
@@johnfrench9608 LOL, and?
I tried finding a video on this chanel that thought a Kia EV was bad and was unable to. I will continue my research though and let you know if I find something bad.
Ustawka w huj 😆 widać że mc laren wygrał bez problemu i przed metą Porshe dogoniło Koreańczyka kia ,ale tak ustawiono kamery aby nie było tego widać . Przegrała z dwoma samochodami.
Supercar fanboy's disgusting excuse
The zeroback of the ev6 gt is 3.5 seconds, so it is a natural result to be in second place.
This game is not a long-term race, it is a zero-back race.
The Porsche 911 has a top speed of over 300 and the electric vehicle gv6 gt has a top speed of 260 an hour.
It's no wonder that Porsche wins over time.😆
@@ushdbrr1293 masz rację 😎
Kia EV6 can only do 100mph. and believe me it looses almost all that power after 80mph lol... (i've driven one, 4WD 320bhp)

Look at this douche.

Do you mean the others will run out of energy 50 miles later because Kia make the most efficient EV power trains there is?
it's the ugliest thing there and I dare you to take it on a track. you won't convince the people who buy those cars to get that EV instead. I need an EV to refuel as fast as an ICE car. Can we do that instead?
Get me a zero carbon fuel line into my garage so I can have a full tank every morning and supercar acceleration for 1/3 the price of a 911 Turbo. Can we do that instead?
Fucking idiot lol.
If you think that they made this video to convince supercar buyers to buy a Kia instead then you missed the point
Teslas aren't so pretty yet they are selling so well and a better deal than these super cars. But I think you missed the whole point of the video. Electric cars are sending everybody back to the drawing board lol.
Take your ice trash. I'll take a tesla model s that smashes it on track and st the drag strip. 👍
monster...
