Combined Charging System (CCS; deutsch kombiniertes Ladesystem) ist ein internationaler Ladestandard für batterie-elektrische Fahrzeuge (BEV). Die Steckervarianten und Ladeverfahren sind in Teil 3 der IEC 62196 (EN 62196) genormt.
Neben der europäischen Variante Combo-2 gibt es die nordamerikanische Variante Combo-1.

Mit dem standardisierten CCS-Steckersystem lassen sich sowohl Gleichstrom- als auch Wechselstromladeverfahren realisieren. Die europäische Version von CCS basiert auf der Typ-2-Fahrzeugkupplung, die mit zwei zusätzlichen Gleichstrom-Steckerpolen erweitert worden ist und als „Combo 2“ bezeichnet wird. Mit CCS-Ladedosen (auch Fahrzeug-Inlet genannt) ausgerüstete Fahrzeuge lassen sich sowohl über Typ-2- wie mit Combo-2-Fahrzeugkupplungen aufladen. Das im Einzelfall genutzte Ladeverfahren und die Ladezeit sind dabei sowohl von der Spannungsquelle (Leistungsfähigkeit und Gleichstromtauglichkeit) als auch von den fahrzeugseitigen Voraussetzungen (Gleichstromtauglichkeit und/oder Leistungsfähigkeit des Bordladegeräts) abhängig.
Typ 2 und Combo 2 wurden in der EU als Standardsteckverbindungen bei Ladeleistungen über 3,6 kW für Wechselstrom und über 22 kW für Gleichstrom festgelegt. In Deutschland erfolgt diese Vorgabe durch die Ladesäulenverordnung. In Konkurrenz zu CCS stehen das von japanischen Herstellern favorisierte Ladesystem CHAdeMO und das chinesische System nach GB Standard 20234.

The electric age is not in front of the door. It is already here. And we also feel that as a rapporteur. We felt primarily automobiles, to which we tinker headings with the words electricity and plug . The same fit also to the EV6. It is the first E-car of Kia, which was not derived from an already existing combustion model, but on a special electroplate form. E-GMP (Electric Global Modular Platform) is called you and represents the link to the Ioniq 5 of the Sister Mark Hyundai.

Lures on the long distance

At the same time, the EV6 documents the determination of his manufacturer to push out the corner of the former discounter with all reprints: if already electrically, then correct and premium and with all the trimmings and turn. These include features that are otherwise known only from the rich of the expensive top strainer, from the Porsche Tycan or the Audi E-Tron GT. Because to lure his users on the long distance and to save you time-consuming stays on the electricity tank, the EV6 makes very fast loading. Instead of the common 400 volts, its battery system drives 800 volts. This means a maximum DC charging power of 240 kW – and that the battery can be brought to a correspondingly suitable fast load column in 18 minutes from 10 to 80 percent charging. Ideally, Kia says, rich four and a half minutes to save electricity for 100 kilometers of route by trunk trunk. From the Wallbox, the EV6 uses three-phase and with up to 10.5 kW.

in 3.5 seconds on tempo 100

At the charging column: As a partner of the joint venture ionity, Kia offers its customers discounted electricity prices. Manufacturer

Model variants are the same as some, and so the configurator has to do properly. The customer must first be clear whether it should be the small battery (58 kWh) or the large (77.4 kWh). The former specifies the direction of the base model with rear drive and 125 kW / 170 hp, the latter presents before the decision between 168 kW / 229 hp and then connected to four-wheel drive – 239 kW / 325 hp. At the end of 2022, another candidate is added, then the GT serves as a sporty spearhead, 430 kW / 585 hp he does, is also four-wheel drive, zooms in 3.5 seconds from 0 to 100 km / h and reached 260 km / H top. This makes it very impression on the regular table.

Another peak position, which of the Reach King namely, claims the rear drive with 229 hp and 77.4-kWh power storage, a battery charge is enough for a maximum of 528 kilometers. Even the small solution – the 58 kWh and 170 hp – certifies the WLTP standard willingness for 394 kilometers. The consumption amounts to 17.2 – 16.5 and 16.6 kWh / 100 km.

Futuristic spice

What works best around the globe s body technology is the crossover. In such a dress, Kia has put the 4.69 meter long EV6, the pattern is expressive with futuristic spice, the high tail with the continuous light bar at least discussion, design technically goes the KIA design completely different ways than the Hyundai at the Edited Ioniq 5 has implemented.

Modern: Interior with panoramic screen and rotary control for automatic. Manufacturer

On the dash carrier, two screens to a curved panoramic display, the ventilation openings underline a narrow control surface, which optionally indicates the buttons for air conditioning or those for the (sometimes a bit late-reactive) navigation and the infotainment, the switching takes place by gentle finger tip. The large-area head-up display projects through augmented reality three-dimensional turning instructions on the road. And leather was banished from the interior, instead, Kia sees the seats with vegan covers, in fabrics and carpets, 111 PET bottles find a new determination. Speaking of Seats: Optionally, you can bring in a relaxation position, so you can insert a nap during charging, while – what you know from the Kia Sorento plug-in hybrid – sea noise, bird twist or the homely soundtrack of a sidewalk café in the relaxation mode lullen .

Loads the e-bike

The long wheelbase of 2.90 meters sells any tightness of the five-seater interior, the trunk volume is estimated with 490 to 1300 liters, an additional compartment under the front hood offers the charging cable a home. Or the adapter with which the EV6 of the bidirectional store is powerful and, for example, feeds the e-bike or, over a charging cable with in cable control box, helps other streams on the jumps.

If the e-auto driver or the driver wants to take a trailer in tow, it can do this, the 58 kWh model moves up to 750 kilograms, which create 77 kWh versions 1600 kilograms.

Discussion: The high tail with continuous luminaire tape as an eye-catcher. Manufacturer

Size and design are contrary to a career as a curve hunter, dynamic and precisely, the approximately two tons of important Koreans can be steered all around the sweeping, even in terms of ride comfort, nothing is told him. When driving, all kinds of electronic service staff, the team belongs to the equipment, for example, for example, the motorway assistant with lane change support, also remotely controlled parking is possible. Six recuperation stages on the steering wheel are six recuperation levels, especially smart acts the auto mode that sets the degree of energy recovery based on the respective traffic situation and the Navi data.

Where it goes in terms of electromobility, knows KIA, but that can not be paid at all: The entry-level price of the EV6 is 44.990 euros.
