Hi Everyone, I've traded in my Kia Soul EV for a Hyundai Ioniq 6 so I'm stepping down as a moderator for this forum. Thanks to everyone for their good behaviour over the past few years, I've only had to remove the occasional bit of spam and not get involved in locking threads and stuff like that. Se...

It's model year dependent. My 2016 has a pin above the J1772 that is driven out when the car is locked, and that stops the latch from being undone. It's still not very secure because you can easily push the pin back in if you have something like a pencil handy.

I've moved this to the forum for the 2014-2019.

You can only do the 80% on the timer. If you turn the timer off and charge immediately then it will charge all the way to 100%. You can always take a look at how long it will take to charge and just unplug it at that point.

There were some videos from Kia showing the factory making the 2nd generation Soul, and I think those mentioned that the chassis was designed to be both an ICE and EV. This is why even though you are not meant to put a tow hitch on a Soul EV, there are still the mounting holes in the frame for one a...
