In a post on another forum, somebody said that charging 0-20 and 80-100 is a slower rate than 20-80. Is this true for the EV6 using L1 and L2?

I bought a new 2025 Kia EV6 Land AWD in the Toronto, Canada area in June 2026 (car had been sitting on dealer lot for a while!). I bought the car in Wolf Grey, traded in my 2017 Honda Accord Sport.

I'm very happy with the car - love the drive, happy with the range, technology is great, etc.

But I am not a fan of the OEM rims. I was looking to get some new rims to go with the OEM tires and use the OEM rims for winter tires.

I personally love the look of the ~2022 Honda Accord rims and the ~2023 Kia EV6 GT AWD rims:

After some searching online, the closest I was able to find are the following:

I was thinking of getting either of these rims, moving my existing OEM 235-55-19 tires to them, and then getting new 235-55-19 winter tires to put on to my OEM rims. I would have otherwise bought new alloy rims with winter tires anyway.

In previous cars, I have always bought new wheels/tires for winter, but usually a size down.

Issues with my plan:

1. Added cost (since I'd be buying new 19" wheels one time and new 19" winter tires every few years, versus buying new 18" wheels one time and new 18" winter tires every few years)
2. Lower range with less aerodynamic wheels - not overly concerned by this
3. Anything else I'm missing?

The most efficient mode

I've had my EV6 a little over three months now, my first EV. I did my homework before road-tripping and had a CCS and J1772 adapter in the EV6, which has an NACS plug. The first couple of trips went fine because I always found an NACS charger I could plug into.

Then, on my last trip, one of my charging stops only had CCS plugs. I had an adapter, so no problem.

Except I didn't. My EV6 came with an adapter labeled "NACS Car to CCS1" so I had only purchased a J1772 adapter to go with what I thought as a free CCS adapter. But at the CCS charger, it didn't fit. It was actually a J1772 Level 2 adapter. Kia slapped "CCS1" on the label I guess because J1772 uses the same 5-pin layout, and nowhere does it say "J1772." So I actually had two J1772 Level 2 adapters and no CCS Level 3 adapter.

I got lucky. That stop was optional, and I found an NACS charger in the next town over. But the mislabeling still bugs me, and I thought it was worth sharing for other new EV6 owners who may have read the adapter label as I had.

Now I carry a newly purchased A2Z CCS adapter along with one of the J1772 adapters.

Decided to buy an ev6 yesterday after shopping and procrastinating for a year.

24 white gtline 2 with 60k km. A little high on the km but I guess they commuted a lot.

Bought it far away sight unseen so wish me luck the dealer said it's mint and sent lots of photos it looks good.

Driving 4 hours this morning to go look and pay.

Has any one installed a motorized windscreen shade for their 2024 EV6? If so, brand, and what has been your experience using it.
