I really hope they add manual battery preconditioning

[@MrLwhiteford]

Please and change the cut off to 10%

[@Rhaman68]

No one has “manual battery ‘preconditioning.’”

[@hlothr]

@@Rhaman68 are you being pedantic or what?

[@LogicalVue]

Finally, some OG Ioniq EV respect!

[@COSolar6419]

I really did not think they would do this. Thank you Hyundai.

[@Draconis8888]

Thanks for the info! Happy Holidays!

[@danielseguin9784]

Do we know if Canada has the same?

[@timlamb650]

Yes

[@fredbozo8488]

Thanks - Great news for my '24 '5 👍

[@741662027]

That's great news! It's something I'd like to have, but since there have been problems with other adapters, and it's such high amperage, I feel much safer with one that Hyundai approves. Making it free is a super bonus! Thanks for getting this out before we all spend $$$ on adapters we won't need!

[@daveo.9172]

First a Hyundai blanket last week in the mail and now news that I'm getting NACS adaptor for my I5 and Kona Electric? Merry Christmas to me and Merry Christmas to you Corbin!

[@snowe..]

hyundai blanket?

[@sarcophage]

@@snowe.. I was going to ask the same?! I did get the thermos..

[@snowe..]

@ thermos? Are you like asking for this stuff???

[@MrVeeBlog]

Woo Hoo! This is massive news. My 2023 thanks you for the news. Merry Christmas

[@DevonVanNote]

I was just about to buy my own for my '22 IONIQ 5 this is fantastic news!!!!

[@MegaMijit]

i did buy one, but im gonna return it lol

[@junglejota2]

Thanks for letting us know. Great content.

[@NguyenVinhHang]

Yay! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and yours!🎁🎄🧑🏽‍🎄🎅🏽

[@SteveBirkett]

Thanks for the extra vid and happy holidays!

[@TheIoniqGuy]

You too, Steve!

[@dyt06z]

Thanks for sharing! This is great news and can’t wait to get more details. Happy Holidays

[@berthogendoorn2133]

Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays which ever you do celebrate, thanks for another great year of great content!!!!

[@SheldonGay-v5g]

Nowhere near enough Electrify America stations (or ANY others for that matter) so this could be a true game-changer on what's a pretty sour point in Philadelphia. Wait times can be HOURS....CONSISTENTLY....even at 4-5am If we could pull up to Tesla chargers, even with a slightly extended time...sign me up, ESPECIALLY if it's free Thanks for sharing this update

[@BlacqueJacqueShellacque_]

Picked up my Ioniq 5 on Friday. Probably won't use it much since I can use EA for free, but nice to have in case of emergency.

[@ambee514]

Always good to have a contingency plan. To me the biggest advantage of supercharger over EA is the number of chargers per location. Typically an EA station will have four chargers. One will be out of order and two will be a Chevy bolt charging to 100% leaving one charger for everyone else. 😂 Most supercharger stations I have seen are typically 6-10 chargers that really makes a big difference on wait times.

[@zacprodehl8823]

@@BlacqueJacqueShellacque_ what is EA?

[@volcalstone]

​@@ambee514people with free EA charging will still charge at EA when tho they have home charging. You're not gonna be able to change them. That being said Bolts shouldn't be allow at EA stations if you ask me. They shouldn't be leaving out of town period. There should be a requirement for using a 350kW charger. Minimum charging rate is 150kW and up. Bolt owners are allow only to charge for a max of 20 mins then they have to unplug to get in line again if there is one. At that point they will know how annoying they are to others when publicly charging. They can't go beyond 80% as well. As you can see I despise them or any cars that can't charge over 150kW.

[@pq6328]

Thank you! I had mentioned this fact in the survey that I had received from the Hyndai Corporation regarding providing free chargers.

[@arbyyyyh]

Booo, let us Kia people in on the free adapter!!

[@velovloger2553]

Can you convince Kia to do this to as well as open up the ability to manually start your conditioning

[@kenr3961]

Hmmm. I wonder if this will include Canada??

[@jcclcreations7909]

I hope so.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

This news is only for the US. No information on CA

[@kenr3961]

@TheIoniqGuy if I find out any info re Canada I'll post it on the FB page.

[@GeoffJohnson]

It's because I just bought the A2Z one lol

[@michaelcottenden3216]

Likewise. Never in a million years thought the 2022 would get a free adapter.

[@stigidty]

thank you for your service lol

[@MrLwhiteford]

Thanks haha

[@SteveBirkett]

Ditto! Surprised to see freebies from Hyundai but who knows how long it will take to get one, so I'll just enjoy immediate access and then testing the two back to back... eventually.

[@ambee514]

Yeah I’m in the same boat… I think I’m just gonna keep it though.

[@Tdog500]

Thanks for the great news!

[@Yanquetino]

Yay, I got that breaking news e-mail today also. We'll see how well the adapter rollout goes. I mean… there are Ford owners who still haven't received their adapters. I already have a Typhoon Pro, so I'm ready to go as soon as Hyundai appears on the "Supported" list on the NACS page. Not there yet!

[@ScottTaylor-n6f]

Great news! I don’t care if it takes 6 months to get. Ford may have been the 1st to “say” they are going all in on NACS. Hyundai was the last to get onboard,, BUT Hyundai was the first to implement NACS! I’m guessing Hyundai’s free rollout of adapters isn’t going to be a cluster F#$k like Ford’s. Some ford owners are still waiting for theirs😂

[@abandonhope509]

Thank you! For the information.

[@bcwest619]

Excellent news! I'd still make Tesla Super Chargers a last resort since they are so expensive to charge, but they are the most reliable and are in more places. So having access and a free adapter takes some stress off a road trip.

[@lee1PA]

I understand that the adapters won't be available for a while, but is there information about the free adapter on the app as of today? My spouse has the 2022 Ioniq 5. She looked at the MyHyundai app and did not find any information. Thanks - Love the channel.

[@ChuckvdL]

@TheIonicGuy, do you have any concern for how close to their 350 Amp limit these will be pushed on the EV9 and other EGMP vehicles with that larger but lower-voltage pack when these are used at chargers that support >500V. I know they are labeled superchargers only, but 1000v support for those is supposed to start arriving in 2025

[@ChuckvdL]

Once Tesla finally roll out V4 cabinets these will be much more useful, until then their chargers are more of an backup for places with no CCS

[@rose415]

Great update ty 😊

[@lanceareadbhar]

Awesome news. I was hoping for this and was concerned with the Kia news.

[@ZadesLegacy]

Awesome news! Could you make a video asking them to enable bi-directional charging, manual preconditioning, or at least auto preconditioning through google maps in android auto? Maybe the will listen to that one to!

[@patrick7228]

Next time traveling the east coast through New Jersey try the 40 stall magic dock in Mt Laurel. Jersey charging is awful in general. The East Brunswick and Mills at Jersey Gardens (biggest stall counts) and others always have a long wait.

[@chunkychuck]

Kia should give them out retroactively for Soul owners, now that there is a Chademo to CCS adapter 😜

[@charlesbaima2662]

Now if we could control the battery heater !!!

[@toddh4491]

This is great, thank you!

[@chycoll]

Kia said they're supposed to get delivery for NACS adapters in Early January 2025.

[@junehanzawa5165]

Wasn't 1/15/2025 the date given for getting Supercharger access? Or is that just for Kia? I thought they are pretty much the same. Or at least the E-GMP ones are the same from a charging perspective.

[@AsadChaudhary-b6y]

Any word from Hyundai Canada or Kia Canada on any of this?

[@ChuckvdL]

Any word from Genesis on what their adapter policy is going to be?

[@ChoobsX]

Nice! I'll have 3 adapters now since I bought an OG A2Z unit, got their 2nd gen replacement (which is VERY nice) and soon a free one from Hyundai. Who wants to touch me???

[@bigbertha8]

Let's go!!!! If only I hadn't bought one a couple weeks ago, but oh well.

[@DDWyss]

They should form a racing league specifically for electric cars. They could call it NACSCAR.

[@PLCGuyHD]

Did you see any info on how to apply for a free one? Ia it through the app?

[@KingTechHD]

It’ll be nice to have in the frunk in case I need it. More public charging options is always a plus

[@brucejankowitz4501]

corbin, Love your channel. I realize you do not have the answer now however I love this news an will be listening carefully to make sure I can warm my battery('23 ioniq5) prior to visiting a supercharger

[@damntomato6451]

Tesla owners about to be pissed

[@COSolar6419]

Tesla owners have been using CCS DC fast chargers for years and have no good reason to be “pissed”.

[@sprockkets]

Eh, screw them anyhow - I'm not going to use their network if I can help it.

[@EltWilder]

Cool, I’ll get one for our old Ioniq Electric.

[@ramyfrancis2702]

I dont really care as long as they didn't fix the ICCU problem. It just happened to me yesterday, and the ixcu unit is back order. It might go up to a month or more to get it and its not a guarantee that it will happen again

[@verynick]

Happy for all Hyundai owners. Still no love for BMW 😢 patiently waiting lol

[@slayher90]

I bought my Ioniq 5 from carmax, do I get a free adapter too?

[@thiagogracioso7807]

what are you 3d printing?

[@TheIoniqGuy]

Cup holder enlargers available on my website

[@ChristopherFerguson]

What about people who bought used? I bought a certified pre-owned one from a Hyundai dealer in October...

[@Ded-Ede]

Now all I have to do is convert my 2017 gas hybrid Ioniq SEL into a plug-in hybrid. Then I can supercharge.

[@soaringspoon]

Have you seen the Ioniq 5 subreddit? Tesla supercharging access is opening up and then closing down in an opening up again, they are testing it right now. Plenty of people with non N lines are getting successful non-magic dock charging.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

Yeah I've seen some reports but I'm not going to discuss it on the channel until it happens permanently.

[@Idaho_Spud]

Any rumors about Genesis doing the same?

[@TheIoniqGuy]

They said Genesis will announce their plans in Janaury

[@TBB0LTZZ]

“As of the taping of this video”…. You’re dating yourself there Corbin 😂

[@TheIoniqGuy]

lol yeah. I started making videos with our old family camcorder that recorded to full size VHS tapes in the mid 90s

[@axion8788]

it's Merry Christmas from Hyundai!

[@MegaSn0wb0ardJunkie]

Great news. Finally Hyundai is giving something usable away for free. Lol. Happy Holidays!!!

[@johna6448]

Hey Hyundai, what about Genesis?

[@TheIoniqGuy]

The press release mentioned Genesis will release it's own information in January

[@davidgiles9751]

Flippin' Kia better follow suit. Really torques me that as an owner of a 22' EV6 I don't qualify for a free adapter - especially after so many recalls for ICCU issues.

[@denislemenoir]

Wait, how do you get this? Wasn't clear to me from the video

[@TheIoniqGuy]

The MyHyundai app early next year. I'll discuss when more information is available. Not much other than it's coming in this press release.

[@grulo1036]

I own 2 ioniq 6 sel I hope I get one for each.

[@MangoPickle]

How does this compare to the Tesla tap you featured on your channel which I bought and use almost every day?

[@TheIoniqGuy]

Tesla Tap is for level 2. This adapter is only for DC fast charging

[@ArianaTheCutestDoe]

Does this work for people who got their Hyundai EV used….?

[@donotcare44]

Would I qualify for the adapter with a 2023 Hyundai Kona EV? I bought it in May 2024 from Hyundai and it's a certified car.

[@vstyle2009]

Hey! Ehh what about Canada 🍁

[@tjackele]

Mid January this takes effect for Hyundai? Or still unknown?

[@tjackele]

And happy holidays to all!

[@Tha1NOnly1]

Hallelujah!

[@Kainyer]

Awesome news

[@JimScooler]

I bought my EV6 on sept 3rd!!! Ugh

[@BeardedGeezer]

I'm assuming that we will have to get a Tesla account and a Tesla phone app to use their chargers.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

For now. We should be getting plug and charge at some point.

[@soaringspoon]

​@@TheIoniqGuyisn't it just the 25 refresh that has this confirmation at this point? Or would be the whole line, that would be pretty wonderful for everyone.

[@orangustang7253]

Sweet, looks like we don't have to riot (Kia owners should riot). Tesla will always be a last resort for me, but a Magic Dock has already bailed me out once when an EVgo 350 was throttled to 50kw. They are unfortunately necessary at this point.

[@foothills1008]

What about 2025 Ioniq 6 owners in canada?

[@garethw001]

I’d still rather have a precondition button.

[@rahulshah1408]

Whoa!!!

[@chycoll]

Corbin....I'll buy one of the 2 you get since you're getting a 2025 next.

[@AeschylusShepherd]

Starting to look at Chevy Equinox over IONIQ 5.. prices are way better.

[@FordEnthusiast413]

IONIQ 5 is a way better EV over the Equinox 😂

[@dianewallace6064]

Hey, Corbin. You can't stay away from your faithful viewers. 🤣🤣 (Like Stephen King and "faithful reader"). I'm watching now. Great News!! I'm at work today anyway. Go drink some Egg Nog.

[@rhuynh]

I don't understand why Hyundai treats their customers so much better when they are essentially the same company and cars cost roughly the same. Kia also does not provide free connectivity or free maintenance like Hyundai. Come on!

[@robsquared2]

I am shocked, and glad I didn't buy one. I did buy the L2 adapter.

[@TheSilverBuick]

Now beg Kia, lol

[@TheRealLaughingGravy]

But why impose a deadline of January 31, 2025? Sounds like a year-end sales incentive.

[@zeethree]

Why not Kia EV6? WTF?!?

[@Qaaxxx]

Do you have a link to the press release, does this count in Canada too?

[@TheIoniqGuy]

This news is for US owners

[@gerardmarandino1018]

So why is Kia being so stingy?

[@jefftimothy]

fingers crossed they don't forget about us second class citizens North of the border. :)

[@johnmorrill5637]

Please follow up and find out WHY NOT Kia? This makes no sense.

[@Dqtube]

I wouldn't say directly if it's FREE, just included in the price for new customers who pay for it for you. If I remember correctly from your video the US prices of the Ioniq 5 PE are higher than the first generation on the other hand in many countries they remain the same or in a few cases are even lower.

[@rydahog]

Just requested my refund.
