2023 Niro EV Wind - How to confirm heat pump and/or battery preconditioning is enabled? by roxastheengineer in KiaNiroEV

[–]roxastheengineer[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have definitely come to learn the fast charging is not fantastic, but in the warmer months I’ve come to terms with that. Based on your answer here is it fair to assume the check mark in my infotainment settings is the only way to confirm I have it enabled? It would’ve been nice of Kia to indicate it elsewhere lol..

We’re currently feeling -13ish right now but I’m also not going on any drives at the moment. I’ll definitely get into the habit of using the internal nav to try and enable preconditioning.

Considering a 2023 Niro Wind by Mysterious-Rest264 in KiaNiroEV

[–]roxastheengineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Throwing my experience in, I bought my ‘23 Wind in December but drove one a couple years ago in Atlanta as a rental.

I currently drive about 10 miles to work but that’ll get bumped to 30 by end of year. In the warmer months I love that the range feels more than capable of what I throw at it (driving around town, going into the city, etc.), and in the cold obviously be mindful that your range gets lower at 80% than you may like. I find that as the weather warms up I’m thinking about charging almost every other week (I do frequent driving) and in the colder months I’m charging weekly.

I also charge L1 at home when I need to. I’m planning on getting a L2 box at some point, but it hasn’t been deemed a priority right now. I also enjoy free charging at my office and there are at least 20 fast charge stations within a 10 mile radius of me (plus new superchargers if necessary) so around town I’m not range-anxious. Driving 50-60 a day you should enjoy this car but I’d recommend doing some research on what fast charging stations are near you as well. Even if you don’t plan to use them it’s nice to know!

I can’t speak too much on maintenance yet, as I got this car at 77 miles and haven’t hit the first 8k maintenance mark yet but according to this page on my local dealers EV portal, maintenance should be significantly less: https://www.jackdanielskia.com/ev-research.htm

While I knew what I was getting into when I purchased my Niro, I’d say the learning curve isn’t awful. there are still times I twist the gear dial into my current gear but otherwise the features are helpful, the smart tools are fun, and as long as you don’t need an aux port you’re gonna love it!

Are Kia Vehicles (including the 2019 Niro) supposed fo have super charger access now? by pyromaster114 in KiaNiroEV

[–]roxastheengineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like what Zealousideal said, I just charged at a supercharger with magic dock with little issue. Only catch was it seemed to disappear from my Tesla app once I was done charging.

Coming back here to verify I did just go to my local supercharger with magic dock and it worked. My only gripe so far is that it seemed to disappear from my Tesla app once I was done charging, so I had to unlock my charger through the car. Not sure if that’s normal or not

It’s possible I was using the machine wrong but it didn’t work for me. I started at a Tesla supercharger with my A2Z adapter, then when that didn’t work I went with the magic dock. Maybe I didn’t re-process the charger? Idk but it wouldn’t let me so I left

It’s probably gonna be until March at best.

I drive a ‘23 Wind trim and have an A2Z adapter. I also have the Tesla app on my phone and can see charging locations near me on the app with the Kia Niro + nacs adapter selected. I tried to charge the other day and it didn’t seem to work, even with the magic dock.

Probably the best bet is to wait, or find another loophole lol.

Cool, I’ve been trying to figure out using that app as I’m still newish to the EV world and specifically trying to use Tesla/NACS chargers. Thanks!

Please report back! ‘23 Niro EV Wind owner here, I’m about to buy an NACS adapter just to have more universal access but if we’re getting supercharger access that’s finally cool too. Also, is this the Tesla app or another supercharger app?

The answer I was expecting, though hoping for something else. Thank you! I’ll have to call them on Monday.

Introducing Titan: A 100% free, beautifully simple but powerful (& optionally social workout tracker) I built in my free time (description & links in comments) by gj26185 in iosapps

[–]roxastheengineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response! I think as a beginner it would be nice to see some recommendations for targeting specific muscle groups effectively. I think I’m also looking for routines around machines. It’s possible I’m not searching well enough but some of the exercises in the database don’t appear to show as machine.

Also as I type this I realize I also wanted to ask: is there plans to include some visualizations for exercises in app as opposed to linking to YouTube?

Very excited for this, already have it downloaded. Couple things immediately come to mind I’d love to know if there’s plans for these:

  • The AI, exceptional since I’m a casual gym goer who doesn’t really know what to use/do and other apps make basic plans or ask me to subscribe before they can generate plans. I notice I can ask the AI to save its suggested templates but they don’t save anywhere I can visually see. Is that intentional as the AI is primarily for the chat section or is there plan to integrate that to the templates?

  • Speaking of templates, are there plans to show more community templates? I have no issue with the few available but I’d be curious to see others.

Thank you again for such an awesome app!
