How to charge a Kia EV6 (how long does it take, cost and where is the charging port)?
The Kia EV6's charging port is located at the rear of the vehicle, at the small panel located just below the right tail-light. There are three ways of charging the Hyundai Ioniq 6 – two at home methods, and one in public. It is recommended that owners of the Hyundai Ioniq 6 purchase a three-phase 11kW at-home wall charger box. These retail for anywhere from $800 to $2000, depending on the manufacturer and the power supply, with additional charges of 21 to 36 cents per kW, depending on your energy provider. Additional costs can be zero if you’re hooked up to a renewable source such as solar. All up, it will deliver a charge time of seven hours. Alternatively, owners can charge their Kia EV6 at home using a conventional 240V powerpoint which takes about 33 hours. A public charging station of 50kW will deliver a zero to 80 per cent charge in 1.6 hours, while a 350kW charger will see the time it takes drop to 18 minutes. Cost is dependent on location, whether it is a peak period or not, and what the charger’s capacity is, though as a general rule you should never pay more than $40 for a full charge.
