Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)

Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the KGM Torres EVX. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.

Type 2 (Mennekes - IEC 62196)

Charging Point	Max. Power	Power	Time	Rate
Wall Plug (2.3 kW)	230V / 1x10A	2.3 kW	37 hours	6 mph

Rapid Charging (10 -> 80%)

Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the KGM Torres EVX.

Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%
Rate: average charging speed over a session from 10% to 80%

Combined Charging System (CCS Combo 2)

Charging Point	Max. Power	Avg. Power	Time	Rate
CCS (50 kW DC)	50 kW	40 kW †	80 min	120 mph
CCS (100 kW DC)	100 kW	75 kW †	42 min	230 mph
CCS (150 kW DC)	120 kW †	85 kW †	37 min	260 mph

† = Limited by charging capabilities of vehicle

Actual charging rates may differ from data shown due to factors like outside temperature, state of the battery and driving style.

KGM Claimed Specifications

All about the KGM Torres EVX

Pricing

The KGM Torres EVX has an On The Road Price (OTR) of £44,495. The OTR Price includes VAT, first year of VED, vehicle first registration fee, number plates and delivery.

Drivetrain and Performance

The KGM Torres EVX is a full electric vehicle (BEV). The maximum power of the KGM Torres EVX is 152 kW (204 hp). The maximum torque is 250 lb-ft. The KGM Torres EVX is front wheel drive and can accelerate from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 8.1 seconds. The top speed is 109 mph.

Battery and Charging

The battery of the KGM Torres EVX has a total capacity of 73.4 kWh. The usable capacity is 72 kWh (estimate). A range of about 230 miles is achievable on a fully charged battery. The actual range will however depend on several factors including climate, terrain, use of climate control systems and driving style.

For example: sustaining high speeds in cold weather could result in a range of around 160 mi. However, driving at low speeds in mild weather will increase the range to around 340 mi.

Charging is done using a Type 2 connector and the on-board charger has a maximum power of 11 kW. This charges a fully depleted battery back to full in around 7 hours 45 minutes. However, a 3-phase grid connection is needed to achieve this. The majority of homes and charge points currently do not have this connection. In most cases the maximum charging power will be 7.4 kW, allowing for a charge time of 11 hours 30 minutes and a charge rate of 20 mph. Charging the car using a regular wall plug will take around 37 hours.

Rapid charging is possible through a CCS connection. The maximum rapid charge power is 120 kW. The battery can't be charged continuously at this power. In an average rapid charge session the average charge power will be around 85 kW. This charges the battery from 10% to 80% in around 40 minutes. A rapid charge like this will add about 160 miles of range.

Energy Consumption

The combined (motorway and city) energy consumption of the KGM Torres EVX is about 313 Wh per mile. By comparison, this energy consumption is the equivalent of a fuel consumption of 129 mpg in a traditional petrol car.

The actual energy consumption will depend on several factors including climate, terrain, use of climate control systems and driving style. For example: sustaining high speeds in cold weather could result in an energy use of around 450 Wh per mile. However, driving at low speeds in mild weather will increase the efficiency to about 212 Wh per mile.

CO2 Emission

The KGM Torres EVX emits no CO2 during driving. This only includes direct emissions from the vehicle itself. The energy needed to charge the battery might have been (partly) generated by the use of fossil fuels. Vehicles with an internal combustion engine will always emit CO2 during driving. Additionally, CO2 is emitted during the production and transport of fossil fuels.
