Should I leave my EV charging while I'm on holiday?

My Kia EV6 GT Line S will be four weeks old when I go on holiday for two months. Can you please advise whether or not I should leave it plugged into my Pod Point charger while I'm away?

Kia recommends fully charging an EV before leaving it for an extended period. You won't do any harm by leaving it plugged in - the car will stop charging when it's full to prevent any issues.

Striking design inside and out. Plenty of space, quality and technology. All versions have a range over 300 miles. Super fast charging speeds. Enjoyable to drive.
