Kia EV6: Driving your vehicle / Regenerative braking system

Contents:

• Regenerative braking (Paddle shifter)
• One pedal driving

The Kia EV6 regenerative braking system helps recharge the high-voltage battery while slowing down or braking the vehicle, improving overall driving efficiency and helping extend electric driving range.

Regenerative braking (Paddle shifter)

The Kia EV6 paddle shifter system allows the driver to manually adjust the regenerative braking level from 0 to 3 while decelerating or braking, helping improve driving efficiency and battery energy recovery.

Type A

• Left side ( ): Increases Kia EV6 regenerative braking force and deceleration level.

• Right side ( ): Reduces regenerative braking intensity and decreases deceleration.

Pull and hold the left-side Kia EV6 paddle shifter for more than 0.5 seconds to activate the One Pedal Driving function, which significantly increases regenerative braking.

While using this Kia EV6 feature, the vehicle can be brought to a complete stop simply by continuing to hold the paddle shifter.

For additional details, refer to the One Pedal Driving section.

Pull and hold the right-side Kia EV6 paddle shifter for more than 0.5 seconds to switch the Smart Regeneration System automatic braking adjustment ON or OFF.

For additional information, refer to the Smart Regeneration System section.

NOTE

The currently selected Kia EV6 regenerative braking level is displayed on the instrument cluster for easy driver reference.

The default Kia EV6 regenerative braking setting and available adjustment range vary depending on the selected drive mode.

For more details, refer to the Kia EV6 Drive Mode Integrated Control System section.

One pedal driving

The Kia EV6 One Pedal Driving feature allows the vehicle to decelerate and stop primarily using regenerative braking control through the accelerator pedal and left paddle shifter.
