Three Ways to Drive Electrified

Not sure where to start? Here's how the three main types of electrified Kia vehicles compare.

Hybrid (HEV)

Pairs a gas engine with an electric motor that recharges as you drive. No plugging in required, just better fuel economy and a smoother ride.

🔌

Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV)

Drive on electric power alone for short trips, then switch seamlessly to the gas engine on longer hauls. Charge at home and enjoy the best of both worlds.

🔋

All-Electric (EV)

100% battery powered with zero tailpipe emissions. Instant torque, quiet cabins, and the convenience of charging at home or on the go.

EV Terms, Explained

A few key terms to help you shop with confidence.

kWh (Kilowatt-Hour)

The unit measuring battery capacity. Think of it like the size of your fuel tank, more kWh generally means more range.

Level 2 Charging

A 240V home or public charger that adds significant range overnight, ideal for daily charging at home.

DC Fast Charging

High-powered public charging that can take many EVs from 10% to 80% in around 20–30 minutes on a road trip.

Regenerative Braking

Captures energy normally lost when braking and feeds it back into the battery, extending your range.

Frequently Asked Questions

How far can a Kia EV go on a single charge?

It depends on the model and trim. Many all-electric Kia models offer an estimated 250–310 miles of range. Plug-in hybrids add electric-only miles for daily errands plus a gas engine for longer trips. Ask our team for exact EPA-estimated figures on the model you're considering.

Can I charge an EV at home?

Yes. Most owners charge overnight using a Level 2 home charger. You can also use public charging stations and DC fast chargers when you're on the road.

What's the difference between a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid?

A standard hybrid never needs to be plugged in, it recharges its small battery while driving. A plug-in hybrid has a larger battery you can charge externally for meaningful all-electric driving before the gas engine kicks in.

Are there incentives for buying an EV?

Federal, state, and local incentives may be available depending on the vehicle and your eligibility. Our team can walk you through current offers, contact us for the latest details.
