Why does the Kia EV6 have such a fast charging time?

I've heard that the Kia EV6 can charge from 10 to 80 percent in just 18 minutes. How is this possible and is it safe for the batteries to charge this quickly?

The Kia EV6 uses a next-generation 800V charging system, which allows for faster charging times compared to traditional 400V systems. This is made possible by using thinner and more efficient cables and connectors.

As for the safety of fast charging, the Kia EV6 has a battery management system that monitors and regulates the charging process to ensure the batteries are not overworked or damaged.

My personal advice would be to always follow the recommended charging guidelines from the manufacturer and avoid fast charging frequently unless necessary.
