I live in MA and there's quite a few charging locations. I am sad to see states that are much larger, like TX, don't take charging infrastructure seriously. One way or the other the future is EV, and even people who value money should see the $ signs. Heck it's Texas, they could install solar in a random area nobody cares about and still charge by the kW.
I truly get 10%-80% in 18 minutes on mine. I super charge when I go grocery charging so I have rush each time to stop at 80. The curve slows down by then so I let it go to 90% if I need to buy time. I’ve only charged to 100% a couple of times…will try to avoid it at all costs.
6:24 - 42min at a 350kW charging station? Or did the charging station have less power? I think Hyundai promises 18min at 350kW. Btw that black with the dark tint is on point for your Ioniq. Still wrestling with color choice if I get one someday - all colors look awesome on that sled!
3.2 mi/kWh is a good efficiency. At what speeds were you driving to get that value? Was the AC running? I have a 2023 Ioniq 5 SEL. At 70 mph, the efficiency runs about 2.6 mi/kWh; at 80 mph, about 2.2 mi/kWh. The temperature when testing at those speeds was around 45 degF. Thanks for the info.
Does the free 30 min charging have any mile cap? Like does it expire after 15,000 miles or is it truly "unlimited" If I go for 29 minutes, then 29 minutes again, will I get charged or will it still be free? Thanks :)
They have started imposing limits. You can charge for 30 minutes and the wait an hour and then charge again. It's unlimited otherwise but only for 2 years. Kia comes with 1000kwh free not 30 minute sessions
I re watched this and noticed the same. It took 45 minutes. Getting to 80 % is easy. It's the last 20 percent that take a long time. That's why I usually only go to 100% at home but I was in a hurry.
