    We have a leased, 2019 Ioniq Limited, 28 kw. We only drive a few miles each day, here in Oregon, so the battery size was not an issue. Our son lived 80 miles away, which was the farthest we drove, and we both installed level 2 chargers at home, so even that wasn’t an issue, we just charged at his house. Then our son moved 50 miles farther away and we became concerned the battery was too small, we had never charged it on the road.
    Fortunately, there is a Walmart supercharger 90 miles from home, right on the way to his house. Charged in about 17 minutes, barely enough time to stretch, walk our dog, bathroom, and get coffee to go! It was super easy too. We didn’t have the app, so we just plugged it in, swiped our C.C., and charged, just like a gas station, at a fraction of the price!
    Didn’t even need to re-charge at our sons house. We had enough range to get back to the same Walmart and charge!
    The lease will be up in October. We are definitely going to buy it at lease end.

    The DC rapid charging capabilities of the first generation actually are a huge advantage over the later version. I have a 2017 and on a 100+ kw charger it can get from 10-80% in under 20 minutes, a second generation car takes more than double that time (which is really sad).

      That is not completely right. Things are often confused here that were different at the beginning.
      When the Ioniq facelift 38 kWh came out there was a problem with the BMS, on the first models.
      These first cars were tested everywhere back then. An average charging speed of 10-80% of 34kW was determined.
      That was of course a step backwards compared to the 28th Battery pack. The 28 kWh battery charges at an average speed of 64kW from 10-80%.
      But the old BMS and batteries were later replaced during a recall.
      There were also always BMS updates in the individual production years.
      However, these updated IONIQ 38 kWh were no longer tested at that time, but I have a newer BMS in my late 2021 model.
      It still doesn't charge above 50kW, but keeps its charging speed above 40kW for longer.
      The old BMS has already reduced to 35kW at 53% and from 68% it was then reduced to 25 kW.
      With the new BMS this no longer happens so much.
      At 68% I still have 35 kW and at 75% it throttles down to 25 kW.
      This is why you usually charge from 10-75% with the new BMS.
      With the new BMS you have an average charging speed of 40 kW from 10-80%.
      And yes, I know that it still doesn't come close to the 64 kW of the 28 kWh battery, but it's not as bad as people remember from the old comparison tests. Of course also an improvement of 6kW average charging speed from 10-80% compared to the first 2019 models of the IONIQ 38kWh.

    (i think you didn't mention) The new one has liquid battery cooling, so therefore are the vent flaps in front. Also the new model software care more about battery (so it doesn't charge so fast, rapidgates, coldgates etc.). If someone is interested, check Bjorn Nyland videos about it, so you get a vision about it.
    Personally I don't like this touch (non-button) design in new cars - I think it's even dangerous...

      Touchscreen controls on some of the chinese cars are used for even basic drive functions, which seems crazy. I really like analogue switches and knobs for functions that you are going to use all the time. Touchscreens or haptic buttons are only good for those occasional settings only IMO.

  • @WhiteManInAVan

    Charging speed on the new Hyundai Ionic electric is alot slower than the old one. On a 50kw charger i can only get about 12kw at best (at 20-30% battery) and its quickly slows to single digits when it gets to 50%. 20%-80% on a 50kw charger now takes over an hour where the old one would take alot shorter time making longer journeys more possible. Maybe this was a deliberate act to have now phased out the Ionic electric? Anyone looking to get a second hand one, I'd recommend the older generation, simply because charging is soo much quicker.

    DC charging speed went from fast to practically useless for long trips. 70kW up to 77% and 30 min to 94% on the 28kWh. Newer model charges 40kW up to 40% before it tapers off. Takes hours longer to do a 1000km trip.

      You say the charging speed makes such a difference but what if you have to wait because all of the chargers are being used ? (This has happened to us a lot) You would have an extra 50 miles left in the new 38kwh ioniq so you could drive to the next charger because let's be honest your not going to drive the full 170 miles without needing to stop for the toilet or a walk or a Greg's.

    @ashton9699 Před rokem +2

    The charge curve was brutally nerfed, to the point where the facelift is actually slower on road trips given you have enough range with the older car to get from charger to charger.
    Old 28kWh gets up to 75kW charging speed and holds 50kW until 80%, new 38kWh gets only 50kWh and already starts dropping at 50%, similar to Bolt.
    Why they made this big step backwards is simply beyond me.

    • @GoGreenAutos
      @GoGreenAutos  Před rokem

      Heat probably, because they've squeezed an extra 10kWh capacity in the same size battery enclosure. This is why they also added water cooling on the 38kWh model. But you'd have thought with the addition of water cooling, they'd manage to keep faster charging.

    I purchased one recently the newest model, the car had 20,000 miles on it but the battery was bad it’s going to take a couple of months to get it back since Hyundai is backed up with ev’s needing new batteries. I enjoyed driving the Ioniq and it’s the best investment I have purchased despite my car waiting on a new battery, it’s till on warranty and it’s like getting a brand new car. The traffic in the Seattle area sucks and I would pay $80 in gas just to drive 4 days before haven’t to fill up again on day 5 and gas at $4.79 a gallon isn’t fun not even if you have a small car.

    Assuming you’ve driven the same amount of kilometres the new one is not going to take longer to charge simply because it has a bigger battery (talking about type 2 here). It will still charge slightly faster than the old one. Very detailed comparison and well done apart from the camera focusing problem.

    Really enjoy your videos, so informative and real life - keep producing!
    Regarding the 38.3kWh. I am seriously considering buying one of these (I have the hybrid ATM, and love the car, but would like to go electric).
    My daily commute is 130 miles (65 each-way). Using ABRP, it says the car will not do the round trip without a 10-15 minute charge. Would this be because of the ideal 20-80 battery usage range. So 4.5m'kWh x 38 x 80% = 137miles? Annual mileage for me 20-25K.
    Would using nearly the entire battery range most days (having to charge 10-90%), seriously degrade the battery overtime, maybe too much for the Ioniq?

    • @GoGreenAutos
      @GoGreenAutos  Před rokem +4

      An Ioniq 38kWh would do your 130 miles VERY easily, even in the coldest winter and on the fastest roads, with no charging needed. In fact, even a 28kWh would do it, but you'd have to drive pretty economically in the winter as it would be tight.
      Using all the pack as zero effect. Lots will tell you otherwise, but in the real world (I see lots of used EVs), its not measurable. The BMS looks after the battery for you, so let it do its job. You charge to 100% every day and it will be fine. Our Ioniq 28kWh has been charged to 100% every night and its now done 102,000 miles and the battery is still as good as new with no range loss whatsover. Plenty of videos on this here www.youtube.com/@GoGreenAutos/search?query=ioniq

  • @jarlrise
    @jarlrise Před rokem

    Fast charging on the old model actually rises gradually up to a maximum at 75% SOC, so "if the battery is flat enough" is wrong.
    Also, one-pedal driving has no effect on brake dust as the car still uses regenerative braking when you use the brake pedal. Only if you really stand on the brakes it uses the mecanical brakes (or if the ABS kicks in, as this disables regenerative braking).

      I own a 28kWh Ioniq and but have never driven a 38kWh version long enough to require DC rapid charging. A lot comment on the speed of the rapid charging, but I'm less worried about it. In reality, you rarely charge at maximum speed anyway and there's many factors that can effect the charge speed at the given time. Plus if you can charge at home, DC charging will be a very small percentage of your charging. Personally, I wouldn't worry about it. Go with the larger battery and enjoy the longer range. If the 28kWh didn't charge so fast (and faster than Hyundai quoted) then it wouldn't have been such an issue.

      @@davidadams5116 Yes. The terms "rapid", "fast" etc can be misleading. Far better to just remember DC or AC power. DC (rapid) charging is via public chargers which are huge 6ft cabinets. The actual charge rate is dictated by the car. The Ioniq 38kWh charges at 44kWh peak, so takes 45 mins to go from 0-80%.
      When charging on AC power, it will take 6 hours (0-100%) if using a 7kW wall charger or in other terms, it adds about 28 miles of range per hour of charging. If using the portable charger on a normal mains socket, charging is limited to 10 amp (2.3kW), so it adds about 10 miles of range per hour. Or a 0-100% charge will take 19 hours.

    A bit late to the party on this but I am thinking of going EV and an Ioniq would be my choice but I am torn between the 28 and 38kwh. I know that the 28Kwh charges much faster than the 38 but that has a better range. Most of my journeys will be local but occasionally I make a 200 mile trip so what would be your recomendation, the 28Kwh or the 38.

    • @GoGreenAutos
      @GoGreenAutos  Před rokem +3

      The reality is that for a 200 mile trip, the older 28kWh model could be slightly faster as for that distance, both the 28 & 38kWh would require only one charge stop.
      With the 38kWh model, the range you can achieve with a full battery at different average driving economies are:
      6.0 mpkWh (super efficient city driving) = 228 miles
      5.5 mpkWh (efficient summer driving) = 209 miles
      4.5 mpkWh (average driving) = 171 miles
      4.0 mpkWh (efficient winter driving) = 152 miles

    Hi, qq, does the refresh have the ability to limit the charge to like for example 80%? I know the 28kwh model just charged to 100% and you couldn't limit it.

    Forgive my ignorance, I'm not familiar with some of the descriptions. When you say "drive more efficiently" are you talking about using an eco mode or do you mean drive at slower speeds or is it something else entirely?

    • @GoGreenAutos
      @GoGreenAutos  Před rokem +1

      ECO mode can help some drivers, but to drive an EV efficiently, the drive mode doesn't matter. Its all about how you press the accelerator pedal, just like in an ICE vehicle. So light acceleration and light deceleration, using the regen only to slow you down and not touching the friction brakes. Coasting is key, which is very easy in the Ioniq has you can set the regen to 0. Drive as if you had no brakes and it will reward with great efficiency, just like it would in an ICE vehicle too.

      @GoGreenAutos  Před rokem +1

      @@iainmorrison1592 For best efficiency, you adjust it depending on road speed, gradients etc. But most people probably don't bother. Once you're used to it, you'll probably keep regen at its maximum for all driving and then just feather the accelerator pedal very lightly and rarely take your foot off it completely. You can achieve the same efficiency if you get good at this and holding the accelerator at the point it coasts. You use the power meter to show you this.
      But yes, generally, 0 regen when on fast roads like motorways or when taking advantages of gradients and max regen when town driving.

    Hi Matt - don't know if you'll still be able to pick-up this comment but here goes . . . just to confirm, you mentioned that there is a weight difference between the 28kwh premium and the premium SE models - is it really 55kg? Seems like that it's a rather large difference given that the 38kwh difference between the two models is only 3kg . . . thank you!

    • @GoGreenAutos
      @GoGreenAutos  Před 7 měsíci

      Just checked this again using the Hyundai sales brochures at the time and the weight difference between the 28 and 38kWh models is 100kg. I'm not sure where I got the 55kg from at the time, but the kerb weights in brochures, V5, websites etc is often wrong. I see mistakes so many times in manufacturer's own spec lists and brochures. Anyway, 100kg seems about right. That will be due to the 10kWh of additional battery cells and the extra coolant.

      Thanks for responding Matt! Sorry to be a pedant, but I actually meant between the trim levels within each model - you mentioned that the weight between the 28kwh Premium and the 28kwh Premium SE varies 55kg whereas between the trim levels in the 38kwh it's only 3kg? Hardly a riveting enquiry but just interested . . . my mind tends to focus on the most obscure facts!

On the 38kWh models this is 48kg. So maybe the brochures were incorrect at the time of making this video. Its something I see a lot. At least the figure seem correct now.
