I bought my Ionic a month ago. I was an early EV adopter in 2014 with a 24kw Leaf. In 2015 we drove to Holland and back. What an adventure but that’s another story. The Leaf had to go because we moved to an apartment with no charging facilities. So we now live in a house and have had a Wallbox fitted. The Ionic seemed to fit the bill but I have to say that without this excellent video i could not have learnt so much so quickly. Thank you for the information that you provided in a clear and friendly way.
Made the jump from a Dacia Sandero to a 2022 Ioniq Electric 38 kWh yesterday. Quite a leap, but your channel and this video in peticular + comments all give a fantastic help and insight. Thanks a lot!
If you can set the Auxiliary Battery Saver then you don’t have the latest battery management software and need that updated at dealership. After that the 12v battery management is automated and charges as and when needed instead of before every 4hrs, which can cause depletion of the 12v battery.
51:21 Seat Memory also stores side/wing mirror positions so set these accordingly before storing too. Centre rear view mirror is of course manual...until someone bothers to motorise these too! 🤣
One of the very best cars out there that you can get. Unbeatable in energetic efficiency and price / performance ratio, very nice and smooth to drive. Sad that Hyundai ceased production of that car. Only downside is very slow CCS charging, which is a pity, because it could be changed obviously very easy by software change, especially in Winter the cells are always on the cold side, and yet charging is slooooooooooow.
Regarding what Matt says at 24:45 about EV charging, for those who don’t know the Ioniq 38kWh hasn’t got a great charging curve, meaning that it does not maintain a high level of charging power for a long time. So for this particular EV, if you want your charging session to last a maximum of 30 minutes, you will want to only charge from 11% to 70% maximum. This will give you 100 miles of motorway driving (4.5 miles/kWh). And don’t worry, 11% is about 19 miles of motorway driving at 4.5 miles/kWh, so you’re fine. 😊
Hi Matt since i bought the Ioniq ev I check all the videos you made very helpful for everyone. I had question about how can i get road speed sign activated on my instrument cluster i saw one of your video you had it on your vehicle. Like road speed 20 or 30 what so ever the speed limit. I think it’s called speed limit Recognition.
Thank you for your time putting this together. Most useful. I have a dog and recently purchased a 21 plate premium SE. Would you knopw how to disable the internal alarm sensors so that my dog can move around without being blasted by the alarm? Thanks in advance.
Battery care is battery heating, but I never have seen it working while driving - also in German Winter. I think battery heating only works while charging with more than 4 kW an winter mode switched on.
Hi Matt Just watched your video on the 38kw instrument and controls I don't remember you showing timed charging on screen On my 28kw I found that it wouldn't set the off peak charging times untill a daytime start time was entered in the previous menu I've got used to it now after 7 years of ownership You've mentioned in other videos you rarely use public charging so do you use off peak charging where you only have a set time to charge And going back to the vehicle you're able to charge at the press of a button to the right of the wheel cancelling the timed event It's shown infront of the driver Timed on or off A useful information for new owners
Very informative, thanks. I’ve recently purchased a 2022 ionic premium, can you help? The road speed limit displays (red circle) when using the sat nav, but I can get it to display on the driver console! I’ve seen it displayed on other videos, I’m wondering if this is only available on SE models? Or is it a fault with my car?
very detaled video looking at one of these today are they reliable read a review saying they had issues with the battery cost of 1500 to 3000 pounds and idea on this please as you owned yours for a while
Sorry to ask a question on a old video Do you still get a 12v battery charging indication on the dash while the vehicle is turned off followed with a message telling you Battery Saver Mode Used With the range down by 2 miles when starting up the vehicle
I'm not sure. I haven't actually regularly driven an Ioniq for over a year now. You certainly did on the 28kWh version. But probably best to ask in one of the Ioniq Facebook groups.
When you were in the power modes and showing regen in each one you missed pressing each on screen mode which takes you to another screen where you can set the air con settings in each mode.
Just plug in and then press the "timer off" button on the dash, which is next to the charge flap button. This then disables the schedule when AC charging.
He's doing a tutorial video and the very first thing he shows he doesn't know what that is. I bought the last gen ioniq for 2 weeks and I know what that is off of my head. Come on man you are better than this
@@Matthew54227chill man, I appreciated the honesty tbh, I'd rather somebody say they're unsure than make it up, it's thanks to this guy's videos that I knew a lot more than the sales person when I went to look at one, he was telling me the premium was the best model and that it had wireless android auto etc which were just wrong and put me off trusting other stuff he said, all thanks to these videos
A feature you didnt show on the Premium SE is the reversing dip mirror where you turn the mirror selection wheel to the left and on selecting reverse it dips down.
@@GoGreenAutos But you showed the seat memory functions and for an additional 10 seconds viewing that could have been shown as not many people know about it.
You have a star button which is a shortcut button which you can program to do what you want. But from memory, you can't put drive modes on it. Not sure why you would need too as there's already a switch near the gear buttons for that and typically that's only one push either way to change the mode.
@GoGreenAutos thanks it would be useful at some points when you wanted to switch quickly without look down to check! Not a biggy though, appreciate the response
V helpful vid, thanks. Less than 2 weeks to wait for ours now v excited and entirely down to this channel sparking my interest. Hoping the SOH is good when it arrives (33k on the clock). P.s. do you have a referral link for intelligent octopus? We're on Octopus at the mo and would be nice to benefit from the credit 🤝
Well done. You will not be disappointed. It's the best no nonsense EV on the market. It does everything very well. Ive had mine for 4 years from new. Only been to the dealers for servicing and recalls. Brakes and discs still good. Only the front tyres will need replacing before the mot in July. It's a lease car and due to go back in July. Ive spent the last 6 months looking for a replacement, In the "affordable' bracket, nothing gets close to the Ioniq. Ive just had a great price from the lease company for the purchase of this car and I'm going to grab it with both hands.
I bought a 2020 Ionic Premium Electric 38kWh last August. So far I have found it to be a great car. I have found your videos for the Ioniq Electric to be extremely informative and helpful. I have a question which I am hoping you can clarify. Last December I updated the mapping for the navigation, to the latest available. On the previous mapping I actually liked the display, where it showed the horizon with either blue sky and clouds for day and dark sky and stars for night. Do you know if there is a setting which gives this, as I cannot find it so far.
I don't think there is. I've not seen it. Have you tried changing the sat nav colour schemes? Maybe these schemes are more than just colours. That's all I can think of.
@@GoGreenAutos OK thanks for your reply. I will check the colour schemes. Keep up the good work with your channel. I find it very interesting, as at the moment I am a very happy convert to electric vehicles.
The speed camera alert is annoying because if you match the actual car speed to the speed limit, say 80 kmph, the car will say it's driving at 85 and keep warning you even if you know your actual speed is legal and it's OK. I have such a camera on my daily route, so I had to turn it off.
That's the ready light. It means the car is switched on and ready to drive...like tickover on an ICE vehicle. All EVs will have a ready light to show you it is running, as there's no noise or vibration from an engine.
Thank you. I've watched all your videos on this car over the months and finally about to dive in and hopefully get one. Seems like you've had yours a while now so you obviously like it
@@AndyKennedy The Hyundai Ioniq is the best EV you can get for the money, by far. I've owned various ones for the last four years. My partner currently drives an Ioniq, but I haven't been driving one since Sept 23 when this one in this video was sold. My videos can be filmed up a year in advance of going live on RU-vid.
Around 4.5 mpkWh in the winter and 5.5-6 mpkWh in the summer. Loads of videos on this channel about the efficiency of the Ioniq, such as this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lYTU6jkgIFA.htmlsi=ZM7F5Yfdppnzozjs Or see playlist ru-vid.com/group/PLW0oq-rvufntC8Qk6ONQjJ7nncwqhp9LL As fart as the DC rapid time, the 38kWh has slower charging than the previous 28kWh model. The 38kWh Ioniq charges at 44kW on a DC rapid charger. You get a charge from 0-80% in 47 minutes.
@@GoGreenAutos I think tech wise Tesla has advantage but people complain about build quality, lack of gauge cluster, boring interior design & no regular buttons. I never seen any car with bubbled steering wheel except Tesla. Personally I prefer other brands.
I not an expert but I'll run through it as best I can. The left side of the instrument display shows the regen mode. When in manual mode this shows as Lv 1, Lv2, or Lv3. Left paddle increases the regen and right paddle decreases the regen. I usually drive in this mode, It feels a little bit like changing down in an ice car. Pull and hold the left paddle for max regen to a complete stop if required Auto, Pull and hold the right paddle for 3 seconds. Display changes to AUTO. On the open road there will be no regen level. Say, on a motorway, and you start to approach the traffic in front. The closer you get the more regen it applies. It's very adaptive. if the car in front is going only slightly faster or slower than you it will adapt the auto.regen braking. @@AndyKennedy
@@jimrandall1739 Ohhhhh THANK YOU this has answered loads, so basically pull the right one and it'll cruise control with the vehicle in front using regen? I use cruise control all the time and thought the ionic could only use the breaks to adjust adaptive cruise control so this is a big plus. Thanks
