Description:
Today we test the Kia EV4 with the small 58 kWh battery on a real 600 km long-distance Autobahn trip.
How fast is the Kia EV4 on a long highway drive including charging stops? We look at charging performance, efficiency, comfort, cruise control behavior, route planning, real-world consumption and overall long-distance usability.
The route was planned with A Better Routeplanner (ABRP), including live state of charge tracking and charging stop optimization.
