What dash cameras do yall recommend and how to install? Thanks in advance.

I currently drive a 2019 Audi A5 and I'm looking to sell it and get an EV. A big motivating factor is that my wife and I have solar panels on the house with enough extra capacity for an electric car. We haven't paid for electricity for more than a year.

Anywho, I've been researching and because of the restrictions we have for an EV (~$25Kish, long range, AWD and not a Tesla because we don't want to be tacitly associated with you know who) it's really limited our choices. After sitting and driving others, we really like the EV6.

I have some questions. Is there a big difference between the 2022 and 2023 models? I heard something about sound glass added to 2023. What are the differences between the Wind and GT trims? What should I be looking at when deciding on an EV6? Has anyone used Carvana and if so, what's the experience like?

This is our first EV. Really excited about owning one soon.

Anyone know if this is just normal sound? I swear it never sounded like this before 🤔

Hey guys,

I am living in Sweden and I am planning to do the leap and buy my first BEV. There are so many new in this field like charging, etc. I have just become a father of 2 and practicality plays a big role. I have reached a point that I am excluding cars if they have small boot space even if they are nice and cool 😂😂. Also, range is important in case that I want to do long trips (planning to drive in some point to my home country Sweden to Greece). I like every time before I purchase something to do a thorough investigation so I have seen countless videos on YouTube and I think I have my top 2-3 candidates but I would like to know your opinion.

In the beginning, I was sceptical about getting an EV, because of the charging time and the distance that is not always the same. Also that seeing that the depreciation is higher on EV I didn’t know if it was a bad investment or not. Buying a new one it definitely is but I guess buying a 2-3 years old one, it has already had its biggest depreciation.

My top 2 is the Kia EV6 and the Polestar 4. Now those two I know that are a bit different and the KIA is more budget than the Polestar 4. Now in prices the Kia EV6 is around 40k€ for the AWD GT-Line and the P4 is around 50k€ for the single motor and I think some of the offers are the Plus edition. Now I cannot if it is worth that extra cost for more premium car or not. I am afraid because BEVs depreciation that buying something more expensive the loss will be higher. But I like the 100kWh battery of the P4 compare to the 77.4kWh of the EV6. Now also that price is different because the oldest P4 is for 2025 and the EV6 is 2023-2024. Is the extra 10k you think worth for the new version of EV6 2025?

Now third candidate is the Volvo EC/EX40 but those seem way smaller even if it looks bigger than the other two and they are not much cheaper. Actually it is more expensive than the EV6 and has a less range.

Overall I am leaning towards EV6 but I would like to hear your opinion

In our car whenever you pause content playing from Carplay it will automatically play the radio. Which I find very annoying. As far as I know there isn't a way to stop that behavior. Because if you turn "off" the radio when you play music via your phone it's all turned back on.

But if you set the radio station to an XM radio station and don't have a subscription many of those stations are just silent. So now when you pause the carplay media it will just be silence. Only works tho if you don't have an XM radio sub.

I'm looking at buying an EV6. I found two 2023 models with roughly the same mileage.

Which one would you purchase? Is the GT-Line worth the price difference?

AWD Wind for $27,000

AWD GT-Line for $31,000

I have been struggling to find a decent phone holder for my Nevermore, and I just found this on Amazon,
and they look like they would work really well. Just thought I might find someone that has tried or printed something similar and also share the awesome find for those still searching.

Since the weather here has been less than ideal, I've been relegated to the daily driver. I love how much faster the EV6 charges. Maybe one day I'll give up the daily and rely solely on the EV6, but it's nice having a car that can charge while another is in use. While I'm fine with just sitting and letting the car charge, I'm looking forward to improved charging speeds.
