Driver aids include adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane keep assist, blind spot warning, rear cross traffic alert and a 360-degree camera with front and rear parking sensors.

Boot space is 472 litres with the rear seats up and expands to 1260 litres when folded. The electric tailgate with foot sensor helps loading, though the high loading sill and lack of a frunk limit everyday practicality.

The cabin feels airy and spacious with strong rear legroom despite the sloping roof. Front seats are leather-trimmed, heated and multi-way power adjustable with decent support. Dual-zone climate and a large fixed panoramic glass roof add light and openness. Ambient lighting and soft-touch surfaces give a modern feel, though some plastics are harder. It stays relatively quiet on the move.

The U6 is pure electric. Official WLTP figures put combined use at 15.9 kWh/100 km for a claimed 405 km range from the 63 kWh pack. Real-world tests show around 17-19 kWh/100 km depending on conditions, with the heat pump helping cold-weather efficiency. AC charging is 11 kW. DC peaks at 90 kW for a 20-80% top-up in about 35 minutes.
Servicing is sparse. The maker quotes a 100,000 km inspection interval. In Europe the cars are handled through partners such as ATU rather than a full dealer network. Vehicle warranty runs 5 years or 150,000 km. the battery is covered for 8 years or 150,000 km with a 75% capacity guarantee.
Safety kit is comprehensive as standard. You get seven airbags including a front-centre unit, autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, adaptive cruise with stop-and-go, lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert and a 360-degree camera system. Level-2 autonomy functions are included. The U6 itself has no Euro NCAP score. the mechanically similar U5 earned three stars.
Living with the car means relying on the partner workshop network for any work. Long service gaps keep costs low. The fixed panoramic roof, dual-zone climate and heated front power seats make daily use comfortable. Boot space is 472 litres, expanding to 1,260 litres with the rear seats folded.
