For the most part, we've been pretty happy with the way things have been going in the automotive industry over the past decade. The days of loud, gas-guzzling cars needed to change for the sake of the planet. Now we're all driving around in quiet, electric vehicles that never need filling up again.

It even outperforms performance cars such as the Porsche Taycan. Let's take a look at ten reasons why we think the Kia EV6 should be your next purchase.
