  • The Kia EV6 is an electric crossover offered with either rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. We took the EV6 all-wheel drive on a day-long drive across different road conditions, including highways, city roads, village roads and multiple inclines to get a healthy combination for the drive route. This is not a hypermiling run nor are we forcing the EV6 to run out of charge as quickly as possible.
    For more information on Kia EV6: www.zigwheels....
    Drive conditions:
    AC: 23 degrees celsius
    Drive mode: Eco
    Regen Mode: Flexible
    Speed Maintained City/Village Roads: 35-50kmph
    Speed Maintained Inclines: 35-60kmph

    My dad technically got 635kms in ev6 when he went to Kanyakumari from Bangalore but he was just trying to get max range without ac with ac at fan speed 1,2 you’d get 570kms range on a non steep plane at 70-80kmph as this speed is the sweet spot of ev6 to get max range

    Definitely interesting. 500km/ charge is a good threshold that can easily convert an ICE person to EV. Perhaps the day a budget EV like the nexon max crosses 500 km real world range will be the infliction point for EVs in India. The only question I'd have is what is this increased strain on electricity demand going to do to electricity prices? And is it possible we see some new taxes on these fast chargers

    At almost Rs 26 per unit, it is the most expensive EV charging station available (120 kW). The Kerala State Electricity Board charges Rs 13 to Rs 14 per unit, including GST. Usually, state electricity boards offer the lowest rates, while private operators charge the highest.

    • @zigwheels

      Charging at home comes down to Rs.310 (vs Rs.2000 at an EV station). I own an EV6 from 4 months in Hyderabad. Never charged it at a station. I have a 30KwH charger that can charge my car in about 8 hours. So my numbers workout pretty well.

    • @zigwheels
      @zigwheels  10 місяців тому +5

      Remember we’re charging at 120kW at a public fast charger. If you charge at home, your cost will be lower by 70-80%. An electric car in this category is a whole lot cheaper to run than a petrol powered luxury car that costs the same.

    After EV adoption by majority, won't charging companies be tempted to charge people a lot more because people will have no good options. If running expense went at par or slightly less than petrol car even then people won't switch because they have already paid the EV price premium. So the only option that will be left will be slow 10-12 hour charging for that 200-250Km range. And because BJPee goormint likes to suck every bit of money from people, they might bring new law of separate unit rates for EV charging.

    It will be cheaper if you charge at home.....but for how long will those rates exists? Can't see a future where we will still have access to the relatively cheaper rates for home charging nor do I see our electricity grid having enough capacity to serve lacs of ev motorists.
    Strong hybrids are the future. The gormint needs to get its head out of their collective 🍑🍑 and reduce the ludicrous duties on strong hybrids.

    ८० लाख की गाड़ी और Rang 500 km इससे अच्छा TATA की Nexon witch gives you range approx 300kM in price of 20 lakh.
    go for Tata, देश का लोहा,
