Join Dave on this entertaining road trip in his Hyundai IONIQ 5 from Darien CT to Marco Island FL. Get to know Bailey; the "Shorkie" pup companion who puts up with Dave's road trip antics which include snoozing in a parking lot somewhere in North Carolina instead of checking into a safe cozy Route 95 roadside motel. Watch Dave try to warm up the battery pack before charging by manually yoyo-ing the car down the highway to compensate for the fact that the IONIQ 5 still does not have battery pre-conditioning. See Bailey and Dave strategize about how far they can push the car to the next EA station by using his VeePeak OBDII Adapter and CarScanner App. Using this device, learn how to monitor the cars hidden data you have never seen before which provides unique insights as to charging speed algorithms the car is programmed for as well as being able to visualize the rumored IONIQ 5 hidden battery buffer below 0% SOC. Join Dave's frustrated banter as 350 kW EA stations consistently attract other road tripping EV's that simply can't benefit from their charging output potential. (Looking at you Chevrolet Bolt, Volkswagen ID.4 & Kia Niro EV). Meet some fun EV people on their own journeys at EA stations and hear Dave try to help others refine their own charging techniques along the way. Enjoy the sunrise scenery at a closed Marathon Gas Station where Dave uses an actual ICE Machine tethered to a somewhat sketchy Food Mart 110 outlet to charge up his 0% SOC EV to save the day somewhere near Florence, South Carolina after an embarrassing and costly wrong turn in true OOS style. Grab your popcorn and ride along with Dave who filmed and edited this first effort full length road trip for OOS Motoring all by himself. In the end, after 8 EA charging stops plus 1 ICE machine stop, Dave somehow makes it to his destination in Southern Florida with a smile and a happy patient pup by his side still wanting more time on the road with her dad. (we think) For those who are curious, the 12V failing battery issue does not impact this trip, and in fact has not happened since Dave posted his video showing what to do when your EV dies on our Out of Spec Reviews channel ( • My Hyundai IONIQ 5 Die... ). In the end, we hope you enjoy this rather long but fun road trip video which also include all the travel data embedded throughout.

Kyle - Please don't let your dad keep overcharging to 90%+...he is setting a bad example! We did this same basic run with 8 stops and never charged past 80%...I'm 60 yrs old my self and can EV road trip properly, so it's not an age thing...

[@proudvirginian]

I'm an ID4 owner. It's my first EV. Until I saw the videos on this channel complaining about IDs being plugged in at 350s I had no idea I was being a doofus. The EA where I normally charge near my house is always empty (I charge on the way back from work at 11pm), and the 350 is the easiest to get in and out of. I charge at the 150 if I'm there during the day. We'll all learn eventually. Hopefully VW will step up their game and start producing better charging cars.

[@cydeweyz]

Until EA provides a way to distinguish between a 350 and a 150 without having perfect eyesight, this will continue

[@muten861]

I don't know about hows EA has built their 150ies. But where I am, in Europe, there are lot of 150ies with 200Amp-Limitation. Every 400Volt-based Car (like the ID-Series or Mach-E) will get less than 70KW, at such chargers. So whenever I charge my Skoda Enyaq, I use the 360ies, with good reason, though it's only possible to charge 125 kw.

That's stupid. Ideally every EA will be a 350 making it all moot

[@proudvirginian]

@ cars can already handle more than 350. Car technology is progressing faster than charging infrastructure can keep up. That said, it's really going to have to ramp up so that people can charge as fast as they fuel up. Eventually the 350 cars will be blocking faster charges too

[@carolc4862]

I also have an ID.4 And I normally use the 150s, but EA 150 chargers at my local Walmart are sometimes wonky. After trying three different 150s the other day I refused to charge at 33kw on a 150 when I got 100+ on one of the 350s. So it's not always lack of knowledge or rudeness that has us using the 350s. Just plain frustration or need.

[@wolfman9999999]

At the end of this. I'm legit curious as to what a hypermiling type of trip would do. One thing about the emergency L1 stop. That hour driving at 55 mph that you didn't want to do, would have saved you the 90 minutes at thex110 outlet.

[@Matsterious]

That car should be called the ironic 5 when it's plugged into that ICE machine!

[@adamchoi8136]

The ice machine was an lol moment. Feels like a fast and furious moment. “Too soon junior”. On a serious note car seems great. Charges 5 times faster than my mini and hope your auxiliary battery drain has been sorted. Great trip video!

16:00 As a European, driving the 500 meters from the EA station in Abingdon to Chick-Fil-A instead of just walking over there while the car is charging is peak 'Merica.

[@rzu7120]

He probably ate in the restaurant. Given the speed at which his car charges, he might have incurred idle fees while enjoying his lunch. Or he may have been busy doing work in the car while it was charging.

[@stiggel]

@@rzu7120 He charged for ~24 mins from 11% to 90%. Charging to 100% would've taken an extra ~10 mins. At EA you get a 10-minute grace period after charging has stopped before the idle fee of .40$/min kicks in. So that's ~45 mins total. That should be enough for the walk to and from the restaurant + having your meal. No offense though, it was just an observation I made.

[@scpowered]

Just for conversation sake, If I had to guess I would say he probably used the drive thru because I don't think he can take the dog in the restaurant and it's probably not ok to leave the dog in the car when charging and walk over to sit in the restaurant.

[@billbennett6921]

Dave, the ICE comment in your header had me wondering if you actually had met up with an ICE vehicle which had an on-board AC Inverter or an AC generator to bail you out of trouble. That's funny! You were very creative... My first totally battery only EV was a FIAT 500e with approximately 87 miles of range. Even so, I once obtained 98 miles running around town between 45-50 MPH. I was impressed with that range. I bought the car In Spring Hill, Florida, about 25 miles north of Tampa. I live in Lake City, Florida which is approximately 150 miles north, driving mostly on US Highway 41. I had to configure some creative charging routines to make it home before dark. I stopped approximately 45 miles north in Inverness. I arrived at the town square which had two level 2 (free) charge stations. I plugged in and went across the road to a diner and had a hamburger and fries, then returned to the car. I waited about 15 more minutes until the charge was at 82%. That was not enough to get me home, so I had a pre-planned location to reach the little town of Newberry. That location had NO public charging stations. But I had previously joined the "PlugShare" network. It shows public as well as some private locations which allow Level 1 or 2 charging. Since the car only came with a 120V Level 1 unit, I knew that would be too slow. The private home had a Level 2 charger installed, so he had arranged for me to use that one to complete my remaining 52 miles to reach home. I spent almost 2 hours with him, while being entertained by four kids and two dogs! I thanked him and offered ten bucks for his time and generosity, but he would not take any money. He also had a 2016 Chevy Volt (PHEV) which he used for his approximately 50-mile trip to work in Orlando. He worked at a location with Free charging for EVs. So, he used very little gas for his weekly 250 miles of commuting for employment. I bought the Fiat 500e in May 2017 and sold it to a "new car dealer" almost Five years (April 2022) later for exactly what I paid for it! Note: I had already purchased a 2018 blue Chevy Volt Premier in June 2020, so I didn't need two electric vehicles. I also allow private Level 2 charging at my home for urgent or emergency use.

[@shahzadiqbal1976]

Moral of the story, try and trust the car’s route planner. I think to truly test an EV the route planner is one of the most important elements. Using ABRP or planning yourself is great, but we can all make errors, I’ve done it! Awesome video, Ioniq 5 is awesome. I will be making a similar trip to Wilmington hitting some of the same stations in my Etron, hopefully it goes smoothly!

[@markrichards9792]

[@ChargingtheRoad]

Awesome roadtrip video! Very informative in typical Out of Spec style! I hope that everyone who charges in 350kw are more aware of what their cars can pull in. I have my Mach-e First Edition and I would only pull in 350kw if it was the only available station left

[@evquietcornerct3210]

my opinion is the whole manual "pre-conditioning" the pack thing, and the managing your speed based on expected remaining range thing, is of little real value. is it technically correct ? sure. but, just keep your speed constant (gives you the best efficiency in EV or ICE) and get to the next stop. rewards are just not great enough vs risk.

When you had 47 miles left and 50 on the GoM I would have gone a bit slower and that should have been enough to make it.

[@TheIoniqGuy]

What a journey! Seems like it was a great trip with consistently fast charging sessions. I feel your pain with ID.4 owners always on the 350kW chargers. I wanna give them the benefit of the doubt that all other stations were full when they pulled in.

[@LBrisk01]

I wish EA would just make all the stations 350kw capable but split power if there’s multiple cars hooked up at the same time. That way it could manage and adjust the power and people wouldn’t have to worry about which stall they’re pulling into

[@simoningebrand]

As a European who’ve never seen an EA station in trial life, how do you distinguish between a 150- and 350 kw station when approaching them? From all videos I’ve seen, they all look the same from som distance where you normally commit to which one to use? It seems a little harsh to fault an average 1st time EV owner to block a 350 kw station with their ID4 if they’re not informed about the car’s charging curve and also can’t spot the difference between the higher- and lower powered chargers.

[@LBrisk01]

@@simoningebrand there’s a sticker and sometimes there’s either a sign for the spot or it’s painted on the ground. I don’t think most people would fault a novice EV driver for not realizing. Hopefully over time some awareness will spread or EA will be able to make all the chargers have higher outputs so it wouldn’t matter

Thanks so much for this video. I just ordered an Ioniq 5 from my dealer here in Annapolis and two days ago I watched a video that took a look at cold weather charging. The video did not show the Ioniq 5 in good light and scared me a bit. I began to think I had made a poor choice. Your video calmed my fears and reconfirmed my decision. Again, thank you. Your mistake was even helpful. It demonstrated that even in a bad situation, the driver can overcome the problem.

[@OutofSpecMotoring]

Congrats! Don't let the great charging sessions during my road trip allow you to conclude that this car charges strong when the battery is cold. Simple fact is that it doesn't; and it desperately needs pre-conditioning which is rumored to come to our US cars before next winter, The weather on my trip to FL was quite warm; hence the good results when charging. When I first got my car earlier this year, and the temps were cold, I would consistently only be able to pull 60-65 kW until the pack warmed up. Just watch our OOS Motoring Race to Vegas video where Zack and Jordan experienced this exact issue during the first charging session. That is the current state of reality for the IONIQ 5. Let's hope they do upgrade all the 2022's to support pre-conditioning as well as the 2023's. The car desperately needs it in cold weather. Don't let this one thing sway you away from the car though; keep the faith it will be released through a software update. And even if it doesn't come out, the car is still a charging animal when the pack is warm.

[@PVNInteriors]

We own an Ioniq5 also. And we just returned from a 2,000-mile round trip from the Midwest to Philadelphia and back. I used a Better Route Planner on my home computer to plan our trip before we left town. We included waypoints for charging at hotels each night. However, we really liked the Ioniq's built-in navigation system. We would just audibly tell the car's nav system which Electrify America stop we wanted next and then easily went there. So we did station to station navigation instead of programming the whole journey at once. The whole setup worked really well. There were two of us which maybe made it easier than you driving solo. We really liked how quickly the Ioniq5 charged - most of the time the car was ready to get back on the road before we were.

Dave....saw a guy with an Ioniq 5 who tested the buffer on his EV . He cut car off at zero miles and went 10.2 miles before he was dead in the streets. So you did have enough miles in the buffer to get to the EA chargers after all. He said he would feel safe running 8-9 miles on the buffer by itself..

[@PeteLenz]

Yes, I’ve sat on 95, the Hutch, and the Merritt far too often for hours as well! My son just moved into an apartment in that area, they want an extra $125/month for a dedicated EV spot…. And that’s not including the electricity! That’s got to change for EV owners!

That "break" in charging is likely to be balancing the cells? Once they're more equal they can add the power again without overcharging some cells.

Or rather undercharging some cells and being limited by those cells across the whole pack.

Love the cell phone tower LARGE TREE at the 6.44 mark in the trip.

Hi Dave another great video just wondering ever since the new update for the Ionic 5..... When I charge to 100% my range has increased to 275 have you seen the same thing on your vehicle.....

[@dconner9]

The range indicator is all over the place; mostly drive style and weather dependent. I will keep an eye on it though. One thing I can tell you, on a road trip like this, at these speeds, you will never see that kind of range in this car; maybe low 220’s at highway speeds

@@dconner9 thanks for getting back so soon.......I will keep an I on this as well.....

[@softpanda2458]

Just an FYI.....I charge my Ionic 5 limited at home with a level 2 when I go on long trips(over 200 miles round trip) to 100% SOC but never over 80% on all other Days.....and have used only DC fast charging maybe 3 times since owning my Ionic.....It is funny how many people don't understand there vehicles charging capabilities and I informed an ID4 owner who was thankful for the information......just thought I would share......

Its so weired to see places I know in here! I knew when ya mentioned Richmond, VA which EA station you were headed to! Used to work near there. Not the best Walmart, but the Supercharger is just a few-ish miles north on Route 1. First place I ever saw a Tesla in person!

I loved your take on range anxiety. New Ioniq 5 owner here and I'm sure it will come with experience.

I’m late to the game on your iPhone app and method of connecting to car. Link? Magnet holder for dash? Link? Thanks for the video and Hoping for more safe travels for all of us!!

Enjoyed the video, especially the ice machine helping and your great companion. So I am guessing you are still happy moving to the Ionic 5 from the ID4 then?

ARRP is actually very good and precise if you put in all the data an allowed live watching over your car soc. It’s much better calculating weather, topography and then so. I use it in my Tesla and it never more off than a 1-2% when arriving destination. But it requires that all data is correctly put in. And this changes only if you have extra weight with you. Everything else is calculated. I used it up against teslas nav and it’s as good and Sometimes a bit better.

While the car charged 115v, I would have been searching as far as I could walk for a 230v outlet to switch to for charging WAY faster.
