Hybrid system overview

PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle) system

The Kia Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) shares the characteristics of both a

conventional hybrid electric vehicle and an all-electric vehicle.

When used as a conventional hybrid electric vehicle, the HEV computer selectively

operates between the engine and the electric motor or even both at the same time.

When it is operating in the electric vehicle mode, the vehicle is driven only using the

electric motor over a certain distance until the hybrid battery becomes low. The driv

ing distance in EV mode depends on the driver's driving style and road conditions.

Aggressive driving maneuvers may at times temporarily enable the engine to oper

ate.

The engine power could be limited during the emission reduction control period at

cold engine condition.

The hybrid battery can be fully charged by connecting a plug to an external electric

power source.

An engine can be turned on due to factors such as the heater and a frequent opera

tion of the accelerator pedal by a driver in CD mode.

Hybrid system overview HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicle) system

HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicle) system

The Kia Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) uses both the petrol engine and the electric

motor for power. The electric motor is run by a high-voltage HEV battery.

Depending on the driving conditions, the HEV computer selectively operates between

the engine and the electric motor or even both at the same time.

Fuel efficiency increases when the vehicle is driven by the electric motor with the

HEV battery.

The HEV battery charge must be maintained, so at times the engine will come on

even at idle to act as a generator. Charging also occurs when decelerating or by

regenerative braking.

Charging the plug-in hybrid vehicle

Charging information

僅 AC Charger: The plug-in hybrid vehicle is charged by plugging into an AC charger

installed in your home or a public charging station. (For further details, refer to "AC

charger" on page 1-9.)

僅 Trickle Charger: The plug-in hybrid vehicle can be charged by using household

electricity.

The electrical outlet in your home must comply with regulations and can safely

accommodate the Voltage/Current (Amps)/Power (Watts) ratings specified on the

trickle charge. Use only as a backup charger.

Charging time

僅 AC Charger: Takes about 2 hours 55 minutes at room temperature when charged

from 15 to 100%. Depending on the condition and durability of the high-voltage

battery, charger specifications, and ambient temperature, the time required for

charging the high-voltage battery may vary.

僅 Trickle Charger: For charging at home. Please note that the Trickle Charger is

slower than the AC Charger.

Charging types

僅 Depending on the condition and durability of the high voltage battery, charger

specifications, and ambient temperature, the time required for charging the high

voltage battery may vary.

僅 Actual charger image and charging method may vary in accordance with the char

ger manufacturer.

僅 * : Depending on your region, ICCB cable for trickle charge may not be pro

vided in your vehicle.
