One percent is within the margin of error. Could just be differences in wind direction or even the amount of traffic (drafting effect). Looks to me like no measurable change.

@UpperWestEV3 ай бұрын
That’s interesting. What I noticed with the Ioniq 5 over the 44,000 miles I drove it, was that the rated range on a full charge was very susceptible to the efficiency you got in the last few drives. so for example, if you do a long drive up a mountain pass, and then a full charge, You might notice a significant range drop. Not positive that is what you were experiencing but it’s a possibility

The way the car calculates the rated range is a little wonky, it estimates what your range will be at a full charge based on your efficiency in the last few drives. So for instance, if you’ve done a lot of hill climbing and then you charge the car to full and the rated range calculation on the car shows 210 miles of rated range but on a highway journey you would still see about 255 miles of range.
@justaguy62165 ай бұрын
Honestly, a 1% change in the range can just be chalked up to the margin of error. Like a test a few years apart with a sample size of 1, there is no way all variables were exactly the same. If it was 5% or higher then it would be really concerning, because all things considered 40k miles is not that much mileage. Also, I'm really impressed with how accurate the predicted range was, it was within 4 miles, which is really good esp compared to something like a Tesla which can be over 10-12 miles off.

The batteries of the ioniq5 are from SK innovation which is known to build batteries with very low degradation.

Thank you! What’s your take on limiting your battery charge to only 80%. Some people think this helps the battery to last longer.
@amperformance79987 ай бұрын
It is a pretty well established practice for NMC batteries and is recommended by the manufacturer (at least in the case of my Kia EV6). The idea is not that you should NEVER exceed 80%, but that for normal driving conditions you should limit charge to reduce degradation. Charging to 100% is recommended about once a month to balance the battery cells, and is acceptable for a longer trip. However there is another 80% rule, and it has to do with minimising charging time. Basically, when on a fast charger, your charging rate will start to slow significantly as the battery gets above 80% or so, and will slow more as you get closer to 100%. Therefore it is often faster in terms of total time to stop fast charging at 80-90% and plan your next charging stop a little earlier. It is both easier on the battery and keeps you in a range that allows you to take advantage of the I5's super-fast charging capability.
@UpperWestEV5 ай бұрын
When I was home, I would always set the battery charge level to 70 or 80% but while on road trips would set it to 95% sometimes even 100 if I really needed the extra range and even after 40,000 miles I saw very little battery degradation.
@Paulmetatron810 ай бұрын
Awesome! On the Freeway, estimate is 256 so right there. City much more. Avg 303. At 34k miles (18 mths), my car seems to actually get better miles per Kw this month than I've experienced before. I didnt expect that. Im very conscious to use regen braking in cold or hot weather since engineering reports say this increases battery life in EVs. Thats in general, not necessarily the Ioniq but physics are physics. Something to do with how the electricity is captured. I am always at 0 on the freeway and I use the paddles religiously in the city.

I've been dc fast charging on electrify america only. My mileage after 14 months is 47k. Past few weeks I've noticed severe battery degradation. For example, I charge to 81% and dashboard says I'm good for 200 miles. Its parked for 8 hours while I'm at work, weather is about 70 degrees. Before driving home, dashboard says 183 miles @ 74% - a 7% decline just parked for 8 hours? Then I drive 63 miles home, now dashboard shows good for 70 miles @ 32%. I was going about 70 miles/hr on the highway. Holy crap! A 42% drop for driving 63 miles. Isn't that like 1.5 mi/kwh? But dashboard shows that drive being 2.7 mi/kwh. The numbers are so off.
