Kia's Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology allows your Kia EV to supply power externally, effectively turning the car into a mobile power source. This feature enables users to charge or operate electronic devices, appliances, or even another EV using the car's battery.
The benefits include increased versatility during outdoor activities, emergency power backup, and added convenience for off-grid living or work scenarios.

Ensure your Kia supports V2L, all of the latest Kia models support this technology including EV3, EV6 and EV9.
Please note your vehicle's battery has to have enough charge which is typically above 20%.
You can use two different outlets - the external V2L adapter which plugs into your charging port, or the internal 220V outlet which is usually located by the rear seats or in the boot, depending on the model.
Confirm that V2L is enabled using the vehicles infotainment system
Use the appliance as needed whilst monitoring battery levels of your vehicle, this can be done using your Kia App on your connected device if needed.
