Canadian Kona charging at up to 93kw

Those figures imply no more than 70kW (75/54*50) - Pretty sure that "100kW" just means "no longer limited by charger output"

 

That exact same statement was found in the 2019 model year brochure. It lead to quite a lot of people believing the Kona was always able to charge at 100kW. So I don't believe that can be taken as a statement that the 21MY can charge at 100kW.
Until we see all 21MY cars charge at that speed I have a hard time believing it. It's also pretty impossible that the heater draws 20 kW as mentioned by others.

With the battery problems Hyundai had (spontaneous self ignition) it is possible that they changed manufacturers or something that allows them to charge at higher speeds. It is weird though that there is nothing mentioned anywhere about such changes.

 

I agree and understand, but the Kona in the video is getting close to 100kW charging speeds so the charge limit of that car is at least 95kW and well beyond the previous limit of 75. Considering that the older cars, including my 2019 Niro EV, max out at 75kW in practice, on 350kW DCFC, the Kona in the video has something different going on in the programming. I would love to see a new 2021 charge to know if it is just a glitch with this particular car, or if it is now standard.

 

Totally agree. It took over an hour to charge to 80%... With a max charging power of 77kW, charging time to 80% is about 50mins.This is definitly a faulty power indication.

 

It actually says in the dash that heating/cooling will slow charging speed, which underlines your statement that heating/cooling is reducing energy going to the battery.

 

In my Kona. If you have the car turned on during charging and turn on the heater/AC it will say that message.

 

To confirm: one is able to DC high power charge the Kona whilst the car is "on" (not what I call accessory mode and thus draining the 12 volt battery)? Thanks.

 

Read these posts with interest as today I stopped at a Petro Canada fast charger and my car actually hit 80kw charge rate, this was as shown on the dash of the car and on the Petro Canada charge station display. I had never seen higher than 72 kw before today. Charging was started at about 40km left and we charged up to 230 just to get home. By the time I unplugged it had dropped back to 71kw. We had the car off at the time and no other power draw

 

The most I've seen at PC is 77 but seen it flutter back and forth fm 77-78 but never seen 78 go solid, hehe
Aside fm that , given a choice I'd rather charge at low speed at home then using fast chargers.
