Hyundai Kona Electric Complete Charging Guide
The Hyundai Kona Electric is a compact SUV that offers plenty of space for passengers and cargo. The Kona Electric has an EPA-rated range of 452 km, which makes it one of the longest-range EVs on the market today.
The Kona Electric features an advanced charging system that allows you to plug in at home or work but also includes support for DC fast charging at public stations.
Charging Speed
The Kona Electric has a charging speed of 50 kW, which is one of the fastest charging speeds available. However, you should note that this is only possible when using a 100 kW charger. If you're using a lower-powered charger, then your car will charge at a slower rate--the exact number depends on how much power your particular outlet can provide.
Charging Cost
As we already know that the Kona Electric has a range of 452 Km. It takes around 4 hours to charge the battery from empty to full, but this can vary depending on your charging method and the type of charger you use.
The cost of charging depends on where you live, how much electricity costs in your area, and whether or not there are any special offers available for electric vehicle owners at home or work. In general, though, it's likely that charging an EV will cost less than fueling up with petrol or diesel (although this depends on how much fuel costs).
Charging Locations
The Kona Electric is a great car, and it's important to know where you can charge it. There are many different charging locations in India, including public charging stations and home charging setups.
The best way to charge your Kona Electric is at public charging stations because you can easily find one in metro cities like Delhi. You'll find these all over the country. Public stations are easy to use; just plug in your car as you would at home, then follow the payment procedure, once connected, simply wait until your vehicle has fully charged before unplugging again and heading on your way!
How you can charge Hyundai Kona Electric?
- Level 1 Charging: This is the most common way to charge your Kona and uses a standard wall outlet. It typically takes about 8 hours to fully charge a Kona Electric with a 240V/30A charger or 12 hours with a 120V/15A charger (your car's onboard charger may vary). You can also use an extension cord to connect your car to another outlet if needed; however, this will reduce charging speed by half as much as using just one outlet at once.*
- Level 2 Charging: This type of charging is similar in concept to Level 1 but uses higher voltage levels--240 volts instead of 120 volts--and therefore requires special wiring installation for it works properly.*
- DC Fast Charging: This method allows you to charge up quickly because it sends direct current through cables directly into your battery pack instead of relying on alternating current from an AC source like other types do.
Charging Tips
- Charge your car in the proper location. The Kona Electric has been designed to be charged at home and when you're not using it, but you can also use public charging stations. If you choose to do so, please follow these simple guidelines:
- Use only approved chargers that are installed by a certified electrician (or qualified individual) according to local electrical codes and standards.
- Do not plug into an outlet that has been tampered with or damaged in any way; this may cause injury or death from electrical shock!
- Never leave children unattended near a charging station while plugged in--even if it's turned off! Charging stations get hot during use; keep pets away from them as well!
Charging Accessories
The Kona Electric comes with a standard charging cable, but there are a few accessories you might want to consider adding to your order.
- Charging pad - A charging pad is an easy way to charge your Kona Electric overnight, so you don't have to worry about finding an outlet or waiting for an extension cable. The one we recommend is made by Anker and can charge up two cars at once.
- Car mount - If you want to use the car mount that came with your Kona Electric for navigation purposes (and who wouldn't?), then this accessory is essential! It fits perfectly on top of any dashboard without interfering with other controls like air vents or windshield wipers.
Charging Maintenance
- Clean the charging port
- Clean the battery terminals
- Check for loose connections or broken wires
