The 2023 Kia EV6 is better in almost every way than its Tesla counterpart, and with our competitive prices on the new Kia EV financing here in Keene, NH at Fairfield Kia, you'd be foolish to pass up the opportunity to buy or lease one from us. That said, if you're still on the fence about committing to one of these cars, we understand.

Pricing
If you've ever shopped with our dealership near Dover, VT before, you know that we take great pride in providing our guests with competitive prices across our portfolio, and it's no different with the new Kia EV6. Now, it's worth noting that pricing can vary depending upon which trim and option package you opt for. But overall, the new Kia EV6 has a more affordable starting price point than the Tesla Model Y. That makes it a better EV overall for Keene, NH shoppers who're looking to save while stepping into the electric vehicle market.
Long-Term Maintenance
If you're looking to buy an EV, you're in luck. Most EV models are actually more affordable to maintain in the long run than gasoline or diesel-powered cars. That said, they will need repairs from time to time, and when that time comes, it's best to put your trust in a certified service center that knows the ins and outs of your vehicle.
Now, you can always count on our certified Kia service center right here in Keene, NH to provide comprehensive and cost-effective Kia EV6 repairs in the years to come. As for Tesla Model Y owners, the story is a bit different. Take a wild guess at how many certified Tesla service centers are located here in New Hampshire or neighboring Vermont? If you guessed zero, you're right on the money, making it much harder for Tesla Model Y owners to find certified service close to home.
Tech
One of the great things about buying or leasing the new Kia EV6 is that it comes well-equipped with the latest tech and convenience amenities. Right from its base level Wind trim, you'll enjoy in-cabin conveniences like a wireless charging pad, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, an onboard Wi-Fi hotspot, and much more. By comparison, the new Tesla Model Y lags behind on standard features even at a higher starting price point. It doesn’t have support for Apple CarPlay or Android Auto and while it can be had with onboard navigation and other streaming services, they're gated behind a costly subscription plan and it lacks a standard Wi-Fi hotspot to boot.
The Verdict
For these reasons and many more, the new 2023 Kia EV6 is the clear winner in this contest against the Tesla Model Y. To find out why it's so excellent firsthand, come take one for a test drive today at Fairfield Kia in Keene, NH.
