I think the Max KWh you got circled there is just the Max draw it has ever seen at one point in time. The car is rated for 150KM, so 97% battery health would give you about 145KM MAX, Remember though the car can vary day to day based on driving conditions. Cold weather can cause a drop of up...

Hi Pearson , Using a level 1 charger daily is not recommended for charging your car. Would be ideal to get a 240v 16amp or higher Level 2 charger. If you can help it charging between 20-80% would yield a longer lasting battery. Also make sure you do not get home and plug it in right away. I...

My car had the same issue with the battery, the SOH will eventually show the true state, the BMS was probably reset. mine was at 75-80 and after 4 months settled at 60% SOH which was the true state of the battery, which is why I claimed the warranty. My Soul has 144000km

Alright after my last post on Nov 20, KIA called me literally about 30 minutes after I posted, the battery came in! I dropped it off on November 25 and got it back a few days later, battery showed 150km at 100%, I drove 170km on that charge, so pretty happy so far, the range has been going up...

Hi Neel, I bought my car from a small Toronto Dealer, no touchups. I still have my taxi roof signs, I removed all the electrical myself and found the keyfob spare under the console. Update on battery replacement: It's on backorder, which I expected 100% with what I have read before, needless...

Hey Everyone, crazy this forum is getting so big. I just brought one of these cars into KIA (the dealer who sold me the car said the battery was newer, which it wasn't, just the charging system.) Kia is replacing the battery with a brand new one, I brought it last week, left it there for 3...

What ever came of this?!?! I am going to try booking an appointment soon, dealer said my battery was replaced but I called KIA and it doesn't seem to be the case, the BMS was upgraded (firmware?).

ksoul, It's too bad you don't live closer to me, I could help you with the backup camera. But to be honest look at the way they handled some of the dismantling they probably accidentally unplugged it, or it's not seeing the shifter position. What happens when you put it in reverse? Does the...

I believe the reason for the keyfob to be wrapped like it was, was to provide all the drivers with a master key which would open the doors (My manual keys do not work). This way the taxi driver would be able to drop the car off and easily swap and start the next car without requiring the fob...

I will post a quick video tomorrow sometime.

Hey everyone, So I decided to take the wiring out of the car today and found the SECOND KEY FOB and the AUX/USB unit completely intact! The FOB was so exciting to find, they had it connected around one of the NFC wires by winding the wire around the fob about 15 times, very odd. Anyways some...

Thanks! The tires do not have any indication of being an all weather, there are snowflakes all-over it, I will have to look into it for sure. My GOM is a bit whacky, I drove today from 100% charge and got 105km, which i did similiar driving to yesterday when it was at 80% and I got 100km. I...

Hey everyone, Just joined the forums, I purchased one of these EV's last weekends, very minor damage (replacing a bumper bracket, roof not caved in from taxi mounts). Couple of strange things so far, When we picked it up after purchase the GOM read 122 km range left, after a long drive home...
