Battery OEM Honda or OEM KIA
Even though the battery tested fine the problem went when I replaced the battery.
Also, most car manufacturers know that customers are generally bad at doing the "correct" thing, so they protect their batteries by design.
When you are charging to 100% you are actually closer to 95-97%, when you run your car to 0% it's actually 5-7%
All because it's easier to show you another number and build the protection into the system, than to change people's habits.
My Kia EV6 does 10-80 in 18 minutes which is getting close, IMO. It\u2019s certainly enough for me
My 2019 e Niro has done 67k miles and range has not dropped significantly. Over 300 miles suburban in summer and around 230 motorway miles with heating in the winter.
I have gone through two batteries already. They seem to only last 3-4 years on this car - at least in my experience.
Of course you do. 16-19 kWh/100km to 20-23 kWh/100km. Kia EV6.
And the super small battery…
I bought a ‘24 GT with 5k miles and regret it every day. The battery had to be replaced at 9k miles and we had a loaner for a 5 weeks. Everyday issues like Carplay not working 50% of the time and the backup sensors being way too sensitive drive me insane.
That happened to me when the battery was dying. The Honda OEM batteries suck.
I did have to buy a new battery because the OEM was leaking, but other than that, the vehicle has been great.
