I’ll give the infotainment system a thumbs up overall too. The interface is fairly intuitive and the screen is a responsive one. What I especially love about the home screen are the customizable widgets. It's not perfect, but it works, and you won't be too frustrated.

I am a bit disappointed, honestly. The EV6's system feels a step behind what one would expect to come from a Tesla. Sometimes the UI is cluttered, and some things are more taps than they should be. Plus, there are no built in streaming apps.

If you’re not super tech savvy, I actually like the EV6’s infotainment. There is a good balance between functionality and simplicity. In my book, physical buttons for climate control is a huge plus.

Everything is okay, but not amazing. What Kia offers is definitely better than what it did a few years ago, but it still lags behind some competitors. The navigation isn't perfect and I've seen occasional lag. However, the integration with Android Auto is a seamless one.

I feel people are too harsh on it. It’s not as flashy as some of the others, but it’s reliable, and it gets regular updates. Voice commands are surprisingly good, and split screen functionality is really useful on long trips.
