2023 Volkswagen ID.4 vs 2023 Kia EV6: Which is the better electric vehicle?

With more and more electric vehicles (EVs) hitting the market, it can be hard to know which one is right for you. If you're in the market for a mid-sized SUV, you might be wondering how the new 2023 Volkswagen ID.4 stacks up against the Kia EV6. Here's a quick comparison of the two EVs to help you make your decision.


Cabin Space

When it comes to cabin space, both EVs offer plenty of room for four adults to ride comfortably. However, if you're looking for more cargo space, the ID.4 has a vast edge over the EV6 thanks to its larger trunk area. If you frequently carry around lots of gear or luggage, the ID.4 is the better option. With the rear seats folded down, the Volkswagen SUV offers an impressive 1,818 L of cargo space, while the EV6 offers almost 500 litres less.


Price

Another factor to consider is price. The starting price for the 2023 Volkswagen ID.4 is $43,995, while the Kia EV6 starts at a smudge over $47,000. That's a good difference, and it's worth considering if you're on a budget. Furthermore, the Volkswagen's top trim, the ID.4 Pro AWD, is priced at $52,995. On the other hand, the Kia is a whopping $11,000 more at $64,110. Talk about a price difference.


Towing Capacity

The 2023 Volkswagen ID.4 has a towing capacity of up to 2,700 lbs when properly equipped, making it ideal for small travel trailers or other gear. The ID.4 AWD also comes standard with a hitch mount for towing, making it even easier to take advantage of its towing power. Meanwhile, the EV6 has a maximum towing capacity of 2,300 lbs. If you need an SUV that can tow a larger load, the ID.4 is the clear choice.


As you can see from this quick comparison, both EVs have their pros and cons depending on what's important to you as a shopper—but overall, we think the Volkswagen ID.4 comes out ahead as the better mid-sized fully electric SUV option on today's market.
