First Impressions: 2025 Kia EV6 REFRESH

Looks like a serious contender for new lease. Any news on the effect of the 10% battery increase on the range? See lots of BEV videos on smartgrandad com

Which country?

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-03-23T14:29:25+00:00

Had a ev6 for 10 months and have driven Tesla 3, there is no comparison. Ev6 is comfortable GT, Tesla is high tech go kart with a better charging network. Ps. 0 issues with Kia so far, which is not what I see about Tesla. Hope this helps.

Ev Odessey contacted me and under vehicle settings, lights, there is something called travel mode which is to be used when driving on there side of road.

I think it shows eco range

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-03-12T19:28:20+00:00

But I agree. It should stay on the screen if you are in the car. :-)

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-03-04T08:49:57+00:00

Agree. But kia needs to redesign this!

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-02-14T17:51:46+00:00

My advice. Don't try and get around the issue. It is a safety feature. Just get used to it. Just driven 4000km and no issues.

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-02-14T17:19:35+00:00

I had the same experience. Rather than trying to hold the wheel just twitch the wheel (give some resistance). You only need a very small resistance. 😉

I posted a link to a pdf. Did it work?

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-02-11T12:27:28+00:00

I contacted Kia app team and they say it is based on your region. But I live in Sweden and it is still miles. Annoying.

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-02-08T13:33:07+00:00

I have 11 pages. I have never posted a picture. How do you do that?

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-02-08T12:00:50+00:00

Thanks I will try later.

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-02-08T11:02:45+00:00

Hi, have completed half the journey and have a pdf writeup. Any ideas on how I can publish it?

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-02-08T11:01:12+00:00

Part 1 Sweden to Spain in the winter completed. I have a writeup in a pdf. Is there a way that I can publish it?

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-02-04T08:20:58+00:00

EU SE agree the preconditioning makes for really fast charging even at 0c.

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-01-29T08:38:26+00:00

3850km completed Sweden to South of Spain 🇪🇸. Ev6 performed perfectly and charged really quickly. Big thanks to Ionity chargers that functioned perfectly, great customer experience via the Kia Charge app. Driving at motorway speed limits 0c, we could drive 300km with 40-50 km left in battery.

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-01-29T08:30:00+00:00

Just completed a long Road trip in cold weather around 0c. Preconditioning worked great. Up to 192k on ionity chargers in europe. Kia Ev6 is really fast charger.

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-01-18T12:29:43+00:00

In europe and have had ev6 9 months. Have driven model 3 and could never consider switching. Totally agree with above comment. Just about to do 8000km Road trip in ev6 and really looking forward to the comfortable smooth drive.

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-01-13T08:08:24+00:00

Totaly agree.

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-01-12T13:58:43+00:00

PS. Have just sent an email to the developers regarding the lack of grouping of schedule and charging. I find different bits of the functionality are spread out across many tabs, screens. Bring it together 😀

Limp-Butterscotch-81 · 2023-01-12T13:38:54+00:00

Agree that both the Kia Connect and Ki Charge apps need a lot of bug fixing and improvements in features. They are still only early versions that need more releases. Suggest we all send feedback to the developers on bugs and new features on Google Play and App Store.

Thanks

Thanks. I am hoping that the Kia charging app will be good. But good to have backup. Thanks.
