I realy like these 1000km tests. If you never have driven a ev this tells a lot

[@alaneasthope2357]

I am SO glad I bought the 28kWh Ioniq. Thanks Bjorn. It was your original video, along side Robert Llewellyn's review that sold it to me. I always try to charge when it gets to 20%. I've found that gets the fastest speed. (20% to 90% in 25 minutes on a 50kW charger.)

[@Prodigious1One]

Really smart and great advice!

[@P1iMaster]

Hey Bjørn at the same Weekend we made a trip with the Ioniq from Kiel (Germany) to Sandefjord (Norway) via Hirtshals (Danmark). And I can absolutely confirm your test. From Kiel to Hirtshals is about 450 KM and we took 5.5 hrs. We stopped 3x at Ionity and had an average stop of 20 min. But that included eating and toilette with 4 Persons (2 Kids). So it would be able to have shorter breaks as single person. Same tour with the same numbers back home. So yes - Ioniq is still very efficient and (important) a low-cost way of travelling. I used "eins energie" as roaming partner and they charge 5 EUR blanket for each charging at Ionity -> 30 EUR for the whole trip! :)

[@Peto02]

It is impressive that old 28 kWh Ioniq beat new 64 kWk Leaf E+ by big margin.

[@clipse85]

Yes it is, but it's logical when you think about it. A big battery only helps if you can charge it fast, otherwise, once you exhaust the initial range, charging speed is what determines how fast you will cover a long distance.

[@gorazdnovsak3705]

24 KWh Leaf can probably beat 62 KWh Leaf... At 55°C it was still taking in 110A till 60% SOC... So more then 40 KW... And it drops to about 25 KW at 80%...

Yes the 1000km challenge is THE TEST of an electric car's ability to tour. Any electric car will do day to day running when charged at home and driven locally, but not all will carry you a long distance in a reasonable amount of time. The Ioniq EV never ceases to amaze.

It was your and others reports about the Ioniq, that raised my interest in the car and after a weekend testdrive I was hooked and bought one. Now after more than a year and more than 20.000km, I know it was a right decision. I think it would be quite interesting if you would use some tracking software like EV Notify to illustrate what‘s going on in the battery. If I go 200 km in one strech without charging, the car consumes ~36kWh, someone might wonder, how this is possible with a 28kWh battery. The answer is ~13kWh energygain due to recuperation. I always wished for that when I still drove a diesel car.

[@gardreropa]

Thank you for a great test Mr. IONIQBjorn! I would humbly suggest that you drive on Regeneration level ZERO... the car will ride smoother, you'll feel it at the steering wheel...Try it yourself the next time you drive an Ioniq... change the Regen level from 3 to zero with the right paddle whilst driving... you'll feel as if the car has dropped a bit of weight instantly... The regen paddles truly unleash the Ioniq's efficiency, and they are one of the rare things Ioniq has and the Teslas don't... Thanks anyway for a great video!

[@bjornnyland]

More efficient, yes. But it doesn't matter because I cruise at speed limit + VAT already. I don't want to go even faster downhill. Unless you want to pay for the speeding tickets for me, then I'll consider 0 regen.

[@watereverywhere]

I agree with the above. Cruising on the highway, set regen to zero and then hit cruise control for the desired speed. Then play with the cruise +/- controls for the uphills/downhills so it doesn't "accelerate" up hills. 120-ish W/km.

[@lennorris4544]

[@GAF5006]

I think, it is even a poke in the eye of Hyundai with its new IONIQ. How can it be, that the (in my opinion) best EV (price/efficiency/size) sucks in the next generation.

[@TheEVGuy85]

Chademo is the reason, not the battery on the new 62kwh setup. They still haven't given it 100kwh charge speeds. But yes, #nissan should take this kick in the ass to heart and step their game up. CCS is the best and should be the standard.

[@newscoulomb3705]

@@TheEVGuy85 It's not just the CHAdeMO. As Bjorn demonstrated in his 1,000 km drive video, the LEAF e-Plus was also throttling its charging speed to ~25 kW after multiple fast charging sessions. It's better than the 40 kWh LEAF, no doubt, but it still bogs down after just several hundred miles. Based on what I've seen, I wouldn't recommend the LEAF e-Plus to anyone who regularly has to drive more than 400 miles.

[@TheEVGuy85]

@@newscoulomb3705 haven't watched that yet, that's definitely a hindrance as I have several 250+ miles between chargers and the need for DC is essential. We've been looking into a model 3 or bolt ev or even the Volt over last weekend.

[@newscoulomb3705]

@@TheEVGuy85 Where are you that you have 250+ miles between DC chargers? Truthfully, that's going to be difficult in any EV, as freeway speeds severely eat into range. If you look at EPA ratings, EVs are the opposite of fossil cars. With EVs, it's the city range that's actually farther, and the highway range is shorter (the opposite of gas cars). Ideally, you want no more than 60% to 70% of your maximum (full battery) range between fast charger stops. That allows you to stay in your fastest charging and still have a cushion when you arrive at the next charger. The only exceptions to that are short-range EVs that don't even have 200 miles of range or the Audi e-Tron and Porsche Taycan, which can charge at full power up to ~80%, but then their 80% range is still maybe equal to 60% to 70% on more efficient longer range EVs, such as the Kona Electric, Model 3, and the upcoming 2020 Bolt EV. Basically, what I'm getting at is that most of the modern EVs right now are really designed for no more than 150 to 200 miles between DC charging stops. The Model 3 LR can push a little bit farther, but really, anything more, and you'll either need to slow your driving to make it to the next charger or put up with slower charging speeds (spending an hour or more per charging stop). Regardless, if your DC fast chargers are actually 250 miles apart, a LEAF shouldn't be under consideration as anything other than a local runabout.

[@smr32061]

Another great and informative review. Thanks.

[@ProfessorHamer]

I found that I lost time on a long journey in my Ioniq just getting off the highway to the charger, when multiplied by the number of stops it becomes significant. Looking forward to electrify America and Canada putting HPC's right next to the highway! I can confirm the Canadian version charges at the same speed: I charged from 12% to 80% in 18minutes, with the max speed at 79% of 69 kw. That was on a ABB 350kw charger in Montreal.

[@raamb737]

Hi, I am a Canadian resident and I am looking to buy an electric car and I am very interested in buying the ioniq. Do you think its a good decision or do I have to wait for some more time until there are more fast chargers on the highway.

[@ProfessorHamer]

@@raamb737 it depends I think on Tesla, since in Europe the model 3 has CCS, so companies have a good business case to put in HPC, in the US and Canada the tesla CCS adapter is not yet available, and may never be. If they bring out an adapter then I think the Ioniq is a safe bet for some moderate long distance driving in the future (but not now) in Canada.

[@falkenhog4585]

It’s all about the driving speed. This distance in your video I have driven many times with my 2017 Ioniq, It is for me 552km and last time in June 2018 I charge just 2 times on my way having approx. 70 km left when arriving in Løddekjøping. The trip took 8,5 hours including charging. My speed average speed was around 90-100 km/h and the car reported consumption on average of 13,3.

[@falkenhog4585]

@@martian9999 Correct

[@adrianguggisberg3656]

Batterie degradation should be insignificant @ 100,000km. I have done multiple 1,000km -ish trips and in much harder topography with my 28kW Ioniq and I never got such low charging power. I usually speed up towards the end to reach the charger with no more than 10km of reach left. In my experience it goes to 62A in less than 30 seconds at 3 to 5% SOC and then slowly rises to peak @ 67A with 77% SOC and then drops to 44A by the time it reaches 82%. That’s the point I pull the plug, or at 78% if I’m in a hurry. I usually set cc to 128kph, which is as fast as you can go without risking a ticket around here, but for longer than one charge trips I settle for 118kph, because that’s the fastest combined driving + charging speed. Unless the chargers are less than ideally spaced, in which case I usually drive faster. Charging from 5% to 80% usually takes a tad under 20min. Your charging curve looks more like what my wife gets from her 30kWh Soul at a 175kW charger (here in Switzerland the law requires charging stations on the Autobahn to support CHAdeMO, which is why more and more new 175kW tripple chargers keep popping up on motorway service stations).

[@davidbarr5783]

Hello from Scotland Bjorn. Interesting video that only backs my belief that rapid charging is only useful with a hot battery and a low SOC. My record in my Zoe Q90 is 292 miles (470km) in 6 hrs 45 mins in heavy Friday evening traffic. Done it in 2 stops, both less than 45 mins with around 25kwh on each charge. My average speed was only 42 mph due to traffic. I could have done it quicker with better traffic and better tactically placed rapids. This far, I'm still to be convinced by rapid DC over rapid AC due to battery chemistry. If you have a 90 kWh battery then DC makes sense completely, but not for batteries like mine of 41 kwh and below. I also have a Peugeot Ion and often thought of doing a long run in it just too see how long a 250 mile journey would take....rapid charging every 40 to 45 miles 🤣

[@viper4800X2]

Would you like a telescopic steering wheel? Then yes, a second hand ioniq is your best bet. The leaf has a deeper boot with hatchback (but actually less space) and handles better with the suspension and battery placement. The ioniq just handles like a hyundai, not rough, it's comfortable, just very unresponsive/light steering, torque steering is bad and you'll spin the wheels to start off with. The headspace is better in the rear for the leaf too for adults. I would still have the ioniq over the leaf for the price, features and efficiency.. Drove a 2015 base model (S) leaf, 24kw, for 7 months, no heat pump, saw it lose 1 bar of battery, needed to use the fast(ChadeMo) charger a number of times trusting it to only do 100km around LA. The GoM was terrible. Leased a 2019 ioniq, top trim back in June, have yet to plug it into a fast charger (CCS), just some level 2 charging, most trips are 100km or less so have been able to do 110v wall socket charging at destinations(friends and family). The 28kw battery is really the sweet spot for us regarding range, price and charging and is good enough with young kids. Ultimately I'd like a model 3 LR but I don't have the money. WIth the gas and maintenance savings with the ioniq maybe I'll be able to afford one? :D

As a new EV driver on unknown territory I wanted to charge in a save way which allows me to always reach two fast chargers in case the first one is broken. As it turns out no charger was broken or occupied and I lost quite some time. Maybe next time I will charge more risky.

I am desperately looking for a car as efficient as this Ionic electric (of which I have one in my garage), but with an up to date battery size and charging speed - and having at least the size of the Ioniq (Model 3 and ID.3 are smaller in one way or the other). All new cars are way less efficient - including the new Ioniq 5 (or smaller). 🙁 Large batteries and high charging speed are nice, but 5 to 15 kWh more on 100km on the highway sums up over time! Everyone argues, if a fossil car consumes a liter or so more - but if it comes to electric cars, almost always just range and charging speed is discussed. This is, as if I would wrt fossil cars just argue about the volume of the gasoline tank and the speed to refill it.

[@Mojoh0906]

I have a Ioniq since 1.5 years and have the exact same experience on long trips as you Bjørn. I haven't done 1000 km in one day but I have made several trips 2000-3000 km over 3 to 5 days. I usually crouse at 100 kph and get a charging speed between 400 and 600 kph (exept in cold winter). I use the torque app on a dedicated small tablet to get all the data I want from the car during driving and during charging. I do set up my car in a different way though. I always use sports mode and regen 0, why? I use coasting extensively to get it even more efficient. I also always do 2 pedal driving, that means that I have my right foot on the accelerator and my left foot on the break. This way I can change my driving stile instantly only using my two feet (and the steering wheel).

Hey Bjorn, why do the speedometers in these cars always underestimate GPS speed by 1%-3%?

[@Kimppikoo]

Too bad you didn't put an ODBII dongle and used Soul EV Spy to show charging speed and battery temps. Soul EV Spy also works with Ioniq =)

[@boloborkowski9429]

Thanks for info will try it today. I'm using EV Notify for charging speeds etc.

[@MrSonicspinner]

Does this app show more info than evnotify'? from screenshots i think its look messy compared to clean gui on evnotify

What's the red notches at the 30 and 50kmh mark on the speedo?

[@gorazdnovsak3705]

Potencial energy. Kinetic is speed...

[@kardy12]

The old ionic really is an impressive car for the price. If you get crap for calling it “cheap” (since some people take it as a derogatory term), I’d describe it as incredibly good value for money. Shame Hyundai went on to make the car worse with the larger battery pack.

Can you make 1000km again, now in winter weather? Summer result is very good, but what will be in winter? It’s good to know, what is the difference.

What is the most common chargers in Norway and Sweden? I have to finish road trip from Oslo to Trelleborg in a few days. What app should I use? Thanks

[@DrColds]

hey great stuff, i don't understand something the ionic i have has a consumption rate around 6.5 - 9.5 max do i want it higher like i see in the video you have 14 kwh and up and the blue meter under it don't give me 0 - 20 - 40 - 60 its 0 - 4 - 8 - 12 do i have a problem or what :D

[@danielbuckley7793]

Sorry for my ignorance, just wanted to check - you started the trip at 10am and already at 10:56 you're at a charging station with 40% battery left? In other words, 60% battery usage in one hour of driving? I'm really interested in one of these, but if I'll have to stop every hour on longer journeys that will quickly turn into a nightmare.

[@Victbc40]

Hi Bjorn, I know this is a little off topic but didn't know how to contact you directly. We have recently taken delivery of a Hyundai Kona Electric and live on Vancouver Island in British Columbia Canada. We live in an area where there are 'All weather (M&S)' or regular snow tires are required from October until March. Just wondering what type of All Weather / Snow Tires you might recommend to replace the stock Nexxen tires that came with the vehicle? Love your videos, thank you for all the effort you put into them and making us feel like we are right there with you during your EV testing and evaluations as well as your road trip adventures. Cheers.

+Bert Harrison Nokian or Nereus

[@seabream]

If you're going for the Nokian, then I recommend Kal Tire - I got my Nokian Hakkapeliita R2s for my Leaf from them five years ago, and have been happy with both the tires and Kal Tire (coming up on time to replace them soon, actually. I should get on that.). IIRC, they sell more Nokians in Canada than anyone else. Even if you're not buying from them, their website has a bunch of tire performance test ratings for different tire options (rolling resistance, braking, slush, ice, noise, hydroplane resistance, etc...) including Nokian Hakkapeliita R2 and R3 winter tires, and the Nokian WRG3 and WRG4 all weathers along with the more commonly available Michelin X-Ice XI3 winter tire and Michelin Cross climate+ all weather tires. If I read the Hyundai Canada specs correctly, the Kona Electric doesn't have a spare tire, so you may want to consider getting flat run tires if they come in your size since the Kona has a TPMS already, and using the supplied "Tire Mobility Kit" in winter might not be effective at low temps and you don't want to get stranded when it's freezing if possible. I went with that option and haven't really noticed the harder ride that some people say you get with run-flats. That said, I also minus sized to 16" wheels for better winter performance compared to the summer 17" wheels, which could account for that since usually a taller sidewall gives a more comfortable ride.

[@Victbc40]

@@seabream Thank you very much for your comprehensive reply. You have supplied a lot of great information that will be of use in my search for a winter solution for this vehicle. I suspect it will greatly help others who also may be searching for a solution as well. Thank you again. Cheers.

[@davidr9449]

Thanks for all your videos. I chosen the ioniq 28kw. I have a question, can you tell me how much you spend during this trip? I know the price will be different in France but it's interesting to know the price to charge the ioniq with fast charger if I have to travel in the North of Europe.

[@akomohammadi6230]

Between 6-9 euros for each charging session I think. It cost more to charge today.
