- Charging my Kia EV6 Wind AWD at an Electrify America 150 kW DC Fast Charging Station. In this video I walk you through the process of charging your car at an Electrify America station using the app to select the EV charger and start the charge, as well as test out the charging speeds on my 2022 Kia EV6 in detail. Overall I'm very pleased with the DC Fast Charging speeds on this 150 kW Electrify America charging station and can't wait to try my Kia EV6 with the even faster 350 kW Electrify America charging stations.

Bet the 350KW would be insane, but still the 150KW still manages to give good charging rate. Love these new EVs with amazing charging speeds!
Totally agree!
Can’t wait to see your 350 test!
Same here! I'll be sure to test it soon 👍
I have the same trim as you and thanks for your content! At 150kw stations, I get 120kw+. My first experience at a 350kw was a bust. I got around 107kw with no other chargers in use and I drove for 35 minutes to get there on a 70 degree day. I have always turned my car off when charging. I'll try leaving it on next time.
Btw, I'm loving the Grizzl-e home charger. Super durable charger for exterior applications! I have the duo so we can either charge 1 car at 40amps or 9.5kw per hour or 2 cars at 20amps or 4.75kw per hour. If you don't need a smart charger because your charge management can happen with the car's software, like the ev6, I suggest buy a charge box built with premium parts like these.
Glad you like the content! That's a bummer though. Definitely keep your car on so you get air! Lol. And yeah I've heard good things about that charger. I love my JuiceBox though.
Nice video!
Thank you!
Jeff, Nice session. How often do you note readings in excess of 150 kW at 150 chargers? Don't think I've ever seen that in my sessions (same trim as yours).
This is honestly my first time charging my EV6 at a 150 kW charger. The EA chargers are known to push around 170ish though on the 150 kW chargers.
I have the same experience like Jeff. The Electrocute America chargers generally push out above their rated power. However, I have encountered many charging stations in bad repair, i.e. either the unit is inoperable, the hardware is broken or the card/App reader won’t work.
@@ulin4226 electrocute America? 😯 Haha. Yeah unfortunately some aren't as reliable.
Hi Jeff, Is there a "Plug and Charge" option available with the Kia EV6 on Electrify America?
Not yet unfortunately but supposedly it's coming
We've only had our EV6 for a week, didn't realize you could charge with the car on. Is there an advantage to that? I of course assumed that just like a gas car, you'd have to have the car turned off. We broke in the car (aka big learning experience) driving from the LA area (Corona) to San Francisco and back and for the most part, charging speeds were pretty solid. Oddly enough, 90% of the EA chargers we used were "complimentary charging", so we didn't even have to use our free 1000 KwH. We did use one EA charger that was incredibly slow (50-60 kWh) and an EVGo that was also in that range.
Congrats! The biggest advantage to be is that you have ac/heat while you're waiting for the car to charge.
Jeff are you using the pass+?
No with the 1000 free kWh from Kia, I don't I'll need to pay for anything for a while.
Man, I feel sorry for those Bolt EV drivers. The EV6 bests the Bolt at max charging speed (55 kW) all the way up until 89% SoC. I was almost going to get a Bolt EV, then I considered a Blazer EV before settling on this car. It's not even a fair comparison because at 89%, the Bolt would be down to under 20 kW.
It's absolutely insane (in a good way) that the EV6 can hold over 100 kW at 80%. I don't know any other car that can do that except maybe Lucid Air for 2-3x the price.
Yeah exactly. The bolt is a great vehicle too other than charging speed. And yeah the lucid and I think porsche.
Isn't $25 a lot of money I thought it would be cheaper for electricity
That's what it would have been without the Kia charge pass and without the charging plan. You can pay $4/month for cheaper fast charging ($0.31 vs $0.43). Check out my other video comparing EV Charging costs to gas!
It's much much cheaper when you charge at home.
@@markhanson7499 yes definitely
Charging at home is much cheaper. My residential rate is 9.6 cents. Public charging prices vary by location. In my area, EA is 16 cents.
@@jghall00 yeah mine works out to be about 14 cents per kWh at home.
I'm going to do videos of me filling my tank full of gas at different gas stations....
Do it
@@TechnicallyJeff the EV6 has a 12 month waiting list at Toronto dealerships.
@@kevinn1158 that's crazyyy
