Having to run heater and rain is a killer for range for sure. I really enjoyed your break down at the end with the time spent for each 10%interval. I had not seen that kind of analysis before and I find it very useful. Thanks for the video Chris.
u most be a scientist sir, I love how you break down the charging so concisely! I am seriously thinking about getting a 2020 I was scared about cold-gate charging, and that it would never charge at a reasonable speed. 47 kwh speed aint so bad. insta subbed, cant wait to see the rest of your channel!
You did this test in May, when the temperature was 14 degrees. Today, July 16 here in Portugal, we have 38 degrees. When I turn off the Ioniq's air conditioning, the autonomy increases between 10 to 20 km. My experience tells me that in hot temperatures, the ioniq air conditioning removes up to 20 km of autonomy. Once again I recorded your video. Thanks Chris for sharing
Thanks for introducing your viewers to "Wesley" (not sure of the spelling). Is he the silent partner in your video production company? Lots of great information on the Ionic. I drove the Kona and found it to be a fun car to drive, although here (Québec, Canada) it is close to $50k, perhaps before government incentives? Good news is that we pay about 10 cents per kilowatt hour for electricity. I might have to wait and buy a used EV as my next car. I'm tired of relying on ICE technology. Thanks for uploading this video. Cheers.
Thanks for the video, great detail. I still don't understand why Hyundai changed its battery voltage to limit the charging. I have a 28 kwh IONIQ and at 90 km/hour I can go for 200 km no problem and can recharge to 94% in about 30 minutes. I was planning to change my 28 kwh to the 38 kwh but the slower charging speed was the deciding factor. I'm hoping that the new line of IONIQs will fix this set back.
I have had a 2021 Ioniq for 5 weeks and love it. The manual tells me that the lights and entertainment system is run by the 12 Volt battery in the front of the car and not the main 38Kwh
Excellent, a realistic range test. What I have seen from other 90 KMS range tests is that the cars normally get around 90% of their WLTP range, there are some exceptions. Lots of variables are in play so even if you did the same test a few times the result would never be the same. I would expect the same range test on the ID.3 1st will be just under 400 KMS.
could you take the same test with ioniq 5 as well, many who are waiting for that test from norway since many have ordered it here and you can get many followers.
Interesting video! I wonder though: What would be the optimal speed to get the shortest time driving 1000 km..? (Good to know when going on holidays no..?!)
Wow to get to 94% in my car at a 350kW charger I get to 68kW and then it tails off after 80% but still finish in about 30min. Sad how Hyundai have such poor charge rates on this 39kWh pack. It aligns with Bjorn's results though.
The decision is about money. This is the small Kona battery. It is cheaper to use an excisting battery then to develop a new one. But they could have designed it better from the start.
After doing the maths out of the BC numbers having driven 300 km, the battery would already have lost 1.5 % of its rated capacity. I guess, there might be at least 1... 2 % below displayed 0 % SOC available during the display maintains showing "0 %". But trying this is not suitable for wimps. 😄 My longest ride without recharging was 272 km with a consumption of 90 % SOC in summer 2022. This year, it looks like that would be harder as only around 135 km remaining are claimed on 50 % SOC instead of around 150 km...
@@dominikhejl5748During this summer, the available distance displayed at 50 % SOC recovered to >170 km unexpectedly. Indeed no degradation noticeable at 25.000 km.
Speed! joke aside : I have a model 3 SR+ and a good way to reduce consumption is to play with the heating settings. I usually do 20 degrees, fan at 1 no AC. In winter, heating your feet takes quite some power too! Just go windscreen and facing you'll notice a difference. If you turn HVAC completely off the condumption really goes down. I did a test on my daily commute without HVAC at all on both ways, I got a crazy low consumption of 120Wh/km (with half distance at 110kph). With HVAC I never go below 135 typically (that was with 10degrees outside). After lockdown and putting summer tyres on again I'll probably be even more efficient.
TheVanlaas Model 3 has more unsprung weight - wheels are bigger and heavier and have more rolling resistance. The Ioniq is a Prius class car where they’ve worked harder on mechanical friction and traded off looks against aero efficiency.
These Korean models ( I have a Kia EV) seem much more efficient than other models, Leaf, Zoe etc. Of course assessories are the killer on all EV's. Then there is regen'........
@captain pugwash You're right, but if anyone is looking to buy a EV, the best charging speed and range belong to Tesla, especially now with the new 4680 battery, range will increase to 500-600 miles. I've heard that Tesla is expensive in Europe, here in the U.S. cheapest Model 3 is around $39,000.
