With the increasing spread of public charging infrastructure in residential locations and shopping malls, charging your Kia EV has become faster and more convenient than ever before. Say goodbye to range anxiety and plug into the convenience of public charging.

At charging facilities with 350kW high-efficiency charging technology, Kia EV models built on the E-GMP platform can charge their battery from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes. This is currently the fastest charging time in the industry.

FAQ

  • First, park your EV in a location that allows easy access to the charging port and open the port. Next, connect the appropriate charging connector to the port and select the desired charge amount. You can then pay for the charge using a credit card or charging application. After the charging is complete, simply disconnect the connector and return it to its original place.
  • Kia EVs can be charged using both AC and DC charging methods. AC charging is available at home and public charging stations, while DC charging is only available at public charging stations due to its fast charging speed. Charger types may vary by region and country. For AC charging, Type 1/Type 2 chargers can be used, while CCS 1/CCS 2 chargers can be used for DC charging.
  • It is advised to avoid overcharging (more than 80%) and over discharging (less than 20%) to prolong the battery's lifespan. Keeping the State of Charge (SoC) between 30 and 70% is also recommended for optimal battery usage.
