How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?
Kia EV6 Standard Range RWD (2024-…) achieves a real-world range of 227 miles, placing it at №148 among 264 ranked positions. However, this range is subject to several influences:
Speed: Traveling at higher speeds reduces battery life.
Temperature: Extreme cold or hot weather can affect range.
Terrain: Hilly or mountainous landscapes decrease range.
Driving habits: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
Feature usage: Climate control and media systems also influence range.
It's important to acknowledge that these are estimations, and your actual driving range may differ. Consider these factors when planning your trip and be ready for potential charging stops.
What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?
The Kia EV6 Standard Range RWD (2024-…) in the USA comes with a Tesla (NACS) charging port. It can be charged at home using a standard domestic socket or at any public AC charging station with the compatible cable. It's important to note that the car's on-board charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging rate to 10.9 kW, resulting in approximately 37 miles of range added per hour of charging.
For significantly faster charging, public DC fast-charging stations are available. Although the car can achieve a maximum DC charging rate of 180 kW, factors such as battery temperature and charge level may affect the actual charging speed.
Kia EV6 models in the USA will adopt NACS charging port instead of CCS Type 1 starting in 2025. Please note that due to its 800V architecture, the Kia EV6's charging speed is limited to 100kW at 400V DC chargers.
