The KIA EV6 is an outstanding all-electric compact crossover SUV, known for its remarkable EPA estimated range of 310 miles on a single charge. The KIA EV6 Wind is an entry-level version that shares the same Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) used for all of Kia’s EV models. Equipped with a larger 74 kWh battery pack and an onboard 11 kW charger designed for rapid level 2 EV charging, the Kia EV6 Wind offers efficient charging capabilities.
Given the substantial battery size and the battery’s charge acceptance rate, we highly recommend the NEMA 14-50 level 2, 40 amp 9.6 kWh Kia EV6 Wind EV Charger. It’s worth noting that we are KIA EV6 owners ourselves and rely on our own NEMA 14-50 40 amp EV Charger. The KIA app provides invaluable information on charging details, enhancing the overall charging experience.
Recommendation: To maximize your EV charging speed, bypass long lines at commercial charging stations, and leverage the advantages of a full overnight charge when electricity rates are lower (in some states offering super off-peak charging rates approximately 40% cheaper than peak times), we strongly recommend our NEMA 14-50 40 amp 9.6 kWh KIA EV6 Wind EV Charger. Charging times are swift, representing the fastest option available for this vehicle using a plug-in EV charger. Charging from a 50% battery (typically when most owners recharge) to a full battery takes approximately 3.5 hours, while charging from an empty battery (a rare occurrence in practice) requires around 7 hours. Our EV chargers can be used portably or affixed to the wall as wallbox-type J1772 EV chargers.
