In 2022, Kia expanded its lineup of electric vehicles by introducing the Kia Sportage Plug-in Hybrid. As Kia enthusiasts ourselves, we appreciate the intuitive technology and the wealth of EV charging information available through the app. We frequently receive requests for new Kia Sportage EV Chargers, as these vehicles do not come equipped with a level 2 EV Charger, and charging information can be limited.
Our EV Chargers offer the advantage of being lightweight, portable, and adaptable to various locations. Whether you’re renting a home or planning to move, they can also be used at places like RV parks where suitable plugs are available.
Recommendation: To optimize your EV charging experience, including maximizing charging speed, avoiding long queues at commercial charging stations, and ensuring a full overnight charge when electricity rates are lower (in some states, super off-peak charging can be as much as 40% cheaper than peak times), we recommend our NEMA 14-50 40 amp 9.6 kWh Kia Sportage EV Charger. This choice is ideal due to the larger battery size and increased acceptance rate (indicating how quickly the battery can accept a charge). It not only provides the fastest charging available but also futureproofs your charging needs. Charge times are optimized for efficiency. Charging from an empty battery, which rarely occurs in practice, takes approximately 2 hours, while charging from a 50% battery, a more common scenario, can be completed in just 1 hour.
