Interesting, right? The all-new 2023 Nissan Ariya and the new 2024 Kia EV6 have a good deal in common. Both promise an electrifying ride complete with helpful technology features. However, there are a few features that are lacking on the Kia EV6 that can make a big difference in your overall experience. First, the Kia EV6 doesn’t offer LED fog lights, a safety feature that aids in visibility by cutting through mist, fog, rain and even dust in hazardous driving conditions. The Nissan Ariya does. The Kia EV6 also lacks an optional power-sliding center console or an available cargo management system. The Nissan Ariya provides an optional Divide-N-Hide® Cargo System 5 and an available power-sliding center console, two helpful features that increase your organization and free up additional space with a simple push of a button. Plus, we can’t help but notice the difference in quality of the seating materials. While we’re a big fan of the fact that the Kia EV6 is able to offer vegan materials, we wonder if their optional Vegan SynTex and Suede seats feel as supple and luxurious as the Nissan Ariya model’s available Nappa leather-appointed seats.
