I walked away once, and did not hear the beep over the traffic noise. Problem is if you don't know the sound, and don't expect it, your mind may dismiss it and let it be ignored. I suggest you deliberately walk away with the key in a quiet space where you can hear the soud and know what it...

After 3 months - I LOVE the car, but my pet peeves: 1: There are numerous small, hard-to-access areas that things (like the key) can drop into ans be difficult to retrieve. 2: WHY is the "delay Charge" button not reflected either by a light on the button - like all the rest - or somewhere on the...

And while people might not notice lights blinking with a frisbee covering them, I would thnk the big thick cable sticking out of the hood would kinda give it away... :-)

One workable software solution would be to be able to set a cutoff point - when the battery is discharged below 90%, or 60% etc - user definable. Would be a simple enhancement, but valuable.

Thanks for the suggestion. I already carry a bunch of stuuf in there, but we might be able to move it the center console. And better than what we have at the moment (nada...)

Nobody? This sounds trivial, but we are leasing, and I eat in the car a LOT. What have YOU done about trash beyond a temporary paper bag? Thanks.

Sounds silly perhaps, but we cannot figure out what to do with typical road trash. In both of our Dodge Caravans have, we have used standard single-use plastic bags for trash and they work great, but I can't figure out how to fit one into Nola (the White Rhino...) Any ideas appreciated.

Hmm, didn't think of that. I'll try it out. <edit> Yup. That's it, apparently. Thanks.

Our tailgate, since day One, does not lock with the rest of the car. Eventually (about five minutes, I think) it decides to latch, but NOTHING I can do will lock it right now. Any ideas? I can't imagine the dealership will actually be able to DO anything...

I think the philosophy behind the decision is to insure that you don't find yourself with a discharged battery - but a warm cabin. I agree it would be nice to be able to regulate temp while disconnected, but if it is that big a problem, for now, just start your car, start the heater, and go back...

That can be a usage issue as much as a battery half-life thing. I drive to work and take two breaks (pianist.) I sit in the car with the heater on, and now my range has apparently dropped 15%. But driving still discharges/recharges at "normal" rates and range seems the same. I get it totally -...

Well,with the heater on and radio, no headlights, made it 38 miles one way and back with 11 miles left. What I am really interested in is how far can you go ON THE FREEWAY AT 65 MPH AT NIGHT, IN FREEZING WEATHER, so both the lights AND heater need to be on. IOW worst case scenario. Any takers?

Thanks. Didn't see a reference in the manual.

Yesterday I went to get my 2016 EV+ while it was charging from our Level 2 EVSE. There was a fairly loud fan-like, rushing sound coming from under the hood, like a blower or fan running. Outside temp around 65F, and I have never noticed this before. Normal, issue or who konws? Thanks.

Thanks for the ideas, but I don't belivieve that is the issue. I have been using it like that daily for two weeks without incident. Checked the Climate preset, it is normal - 100%, set for 3:40, clock is within 1 mon of maste Internet clock. Today it was at 100%. :roll: Hope it stays that way.

A few days ago, my wife plugged in the Level 2 charger (with timer set for off-peak hours.) When I got in the car at 3PM, the display told me I was at 61% (after 15 hrs) and needed another 12:20 to complete. The heat was on (I have it set to go on at 3:40 when I leave at 3:45, but it was earlier...

Thanks for the idea. I have figured out how to get the best heat under the cnditions - but it has a curious effect. The projected mileage is down from 93 to 82, probably because of the use of the battery with the power on but not really going anywhere. Does not affect the ACTUAL available...

I'll have to look more closely, did not notice any such. But thanks.

Just got the plates, but I cannot find anywhere to mount the front plate. ??? Thx.

Yeah, there are some obviously irrelevant paragraphs - distance to gas stations... :-) And there are a number of examles of the wrong graphic as well. If Kia needs a proofreader to proof their own proofer, I am willing to do the job for a free Soul EV+ :lol:
