Cost to Charge Kia EV6 on Francis Energy

The EV6's NACS+CCS port plugs directly into Francis Energy's CCS stalls without an adapter. Check the Francis Energy app before your first session to confirm which connector your target station uses — mixed-connector deployments are common in 2026.

On a session-by-session basis, the EV6's 240 kW peak charging speed is well-matched to Francis Energy's DC fast hardware. Expect a 10→80% charge in roughly 11 min. Real-world times run 10–20% longer due to charging taper and battery preconditioning.

Cost-wise, one $17.34 full charge on Francis Energy represents $0.06 per mile of driving — about 5.6¢/mile. A gas equivalent at 30 mpg and $3.50/gal is roughly 11.7¢/mile, so this charging session is still cheaper than gas. Over 15,000 miles/year, exclusive reliance on Francis Energy would cost roughly $1,048.65/year in fuel — a meaningful delta compared to mostly-home charging (~$617.95/year).

For most EV6 owners, the realistic use-pattern for Francis Energy is road trips and occasional top-ups — not primary fueling. If you live in an apartment or condo and rely on public charging as your main option, factor in the per-session pricing with no membership option.
