Kia India, one of the fastest growing carmakers in the country, today inaugurated India’s fastest charger for passenger vehicles at its dealership in Gurgaon. With a capacity of 150 kWh, this DC fast charger is installed at Dhingra Kia, Gurgaon. In line with the company’s commitment to offer world-class mobility solutions, this initiative is expected to provide access to charging solutions to all EV owners. With this, Kia India has taken its first step towards developing an EV infrastructure in the country and will be setting up more charging stations this year, across its EV dealerships.

Speaking on the occasion, Myung-sik Sohn, Chief Sales Officer, Kia India said, “We started with the ambition of making EV ownership aspirational and launched our global best EV – the Kia EV6 in India, earlier this year. To take things further, we’re now incredibly excited to inaugurate the first DC fast charger for passenger vehicles with 150 kWh charging capacity, playing our role in India’s EV growth story. At Kia India, it is our constant endeavour to provide a superior customer experience and we believe that such fast-charging solutions will take away issues of range anxiety & charging time that EV owners face. We have begun the journey of providing an unparalleled EV experience across all our EV dealerships in the country and here, we will be able to cater to the charging requirements of EVs from other OEMs as well. We shall be installing a total of 15 such chargers across 12 cities by August, 2022, and are hopeful that such small steps will go a long way in fostering EV adoption in the country. ”
