The Challenges Of Charging The New Ioniq 5 With NACS On A 2,000 Mile Roadtrip Jan 30, 2025

Show notes

I sat down with Corbin, who just took delivery of a 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 with native NACS, to hear about his 2,000-mile road trip across the country. He tested Tesla Superchargers, Electrify America, EVGO/Pilot, Rivian Adventure Network, and even Ionna stations, facing both smooth sessions and unexpected issues along the way. With Tesla’s 500V limit on V3 cabinets, using NACS on an 800V EV isn’t as easy as it sounds.

Thank You Corbin, check out his channel and roadtrip video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZVaVgVOvj0
