Finding these really interesting- got mine in order and just trying to have the mental mind shift towards electric and not having range anxiety. Keep up the good work
Nice one, Mark! I found this very interesting because I’m new to the EV world, and often travel from Wales to Weybridge. I’ve not used a Public Charger yet, but seen this site on ZAP Map! I have more confidence in using a PC now after the comprehensive instructions - thank you 👍🏼
Thanks. There is also now a brand new Ionity HPC site (6 chargers active but space for another 6 in future) in Newport J23A Magor. Not in Magor services but near the opposite (westbound) exit. Also massive new Tesla SuC x12 just opened at Celtic Manor + 18 free to use Type 2 chargers. Open to all EVs. MM
Not sure how far you have to travel on the M4 but Ionity are also putting in chargers at Magor Services M4 J23a just across the Welsh border. Still being built though so not ready. They now have 6 high speed (up to 350kW) chargers at M4 Chippenham as it was and is getting busier & busier as the sales of EVs are increasing rapidly. MM
Really great videos. Keep them coming. Would you be so kind and show us the side windows covered with water and where does the water go if it stays inside the door. Thank you very much.
hello sir. good videos. we just ordered a car similar to your same color and it all , so looking forward to your next videos. continue the good work . with kind regards Allan from DK
I know this might be incredibly pedantic and I apologise for that, but your caption as to when Winston Churchill was born in Blenheim Palace was somewhat inaccurate. He was born on 30th November 1874 and not 26th October 1951 as per your caption... otherwise, a great video, thanks!
No. You are absolutely not being pedantic! A mistake on my part. That was the last part of text that I added to make it a bit more informative. That was the last year he was in opposition I think. Thanks for pointing that out. Thought I had checked and double checked before uploading! Will have to wait for many others to point it out now also. 🥲😂. MM
This is indeed a game-changer. It will be really interesting to see how the battery degrades over time with these types of speed. If Hyundai/Kia can show similar figures as the Tesla M3/Y, this is a revolution. On another note, I wonder if these type of "isolated" quick charging spots (relative to a gas station) are ideal to women travelling alone, i.e. I've come to understand that there is a big difference which type of environments where men and women feel safe. How would your wife feel stopping at this Ionity location late at night? Just curious..
A very good point and something I am aware of (as I am married) and still a big reason why EVs are not as attractive as their ICE counterparts..yet. However will not be long until multi point well lit fuel stations will become multi point well lit EV Charge stations. And if these charging speeds continue and the fact that you can sit inside your car with the doors locked, it will only be a few minutes of being isolated. And not that much different from getting out of your car and standing beside it waiting to fill your tank with petrol. MM.
A good point as a lot of charge Points are placed away from the Entrance of Shops. This was often done to stop Petrol Cars Icing the spots in a busy Car Park, but really Charge points should be placed close to the entrance of Facilities and have proper enforcement of Towing away of cars blocking chargers.
Could you please test the charging speed when ambient temperatures drop and battery pack is below 5°C or 10°C? It probably will be only 70kW, as reported by other owners. Battery temperature can be read with free phone apps: car scanner elm obd2 or evnotify.
When you get out of the car or unlock the car to get out, the daytime running/main lights come on and stay on for a little while unless you lock the car. They go off after 2-3 minutes. It gives the impression that they were on all the time but it was only when I got out to take the video portions at the start and near the end of the charge. MM
What a complete contrast to Guy Martin, who stupidly paid 69p per kw, because he was ignorant of the "Charge My Hyundai" app. And then made out it was all the car's fault, because he hadn't done his research and planned his trip! 25p per kw is better than 69p per kw any day. It's worth noting that Gridserve's planned 100 large charge hubs, projected for most major UK road routes, will have several 350kw chargers, as well as around 30 other lower current chargers on each site.....
I know. Exciting (and hopeful) times. Let’s hope they come to fruition. These multipoint charging hubs which in effect will replace multipoint petrol stations will make long distance travel a breeze even in smaller battery EVs. MM
To sign up for hyundai card to get discount rates on Ionity you need to pay extra charge per month. Not really worth it if you use it once or twice a year
In the UK, as mentioned in the video and after purchasing an Ioniq 5 at present, there is no subscription fee to use Ionity or get the Hyundai RFID card. The first year is free. P45 owners get a 2 year free subscription so no extra charges. Just a flat rate of 25p/kWh to use the fastest chargers around at present. But after the 1 (or 2 years are up) , yes, it looks like there will be a monthly fee. But I will worry about that after the 2 years are up. Will hopefully be a lot more choice and more competition in the charging market by then. As an EV owner 95+% of my charging is done at home. Not every EV owner will be lucky enough to do that (if living in an apartment block etc). Only when travelling long distance do these public chargers need to be used.
@@markymarkreviews Yes that is correct. I was mostly highlighting for non ioniq 5 drivers. If you buy a new kona electric you don't get the deal. I tend to clear away from Ionity I prefer other providers some are even promoting loyalty schemes 👍
@@foolcellsorryfuelcellmirag4835 Ok. Understood. I agree. Subscriptions only worth it if you are a very regular user or a business user and can claim the costs back as a work expense etc (which I am neither). MM
If you buy it new it should be a minimum of 5 years. North America gets free charging for a year. It's penny pinching like this that drive people to Tesla.
Great informative video. I’ve just received free Premium ionity from Hyundai and will be trying one of these at Leeds M1 next week. Do you know if ionity premium gives discounted rates at any other brand of charger, for example podpoint or genie.
Not that I know of. You can use the card for use on many other chargers I think but won’t be discounted. I only use mine on Ionity and still very pleased I pay 25p/kWh which is so so cheap in these times of high energy tariffs. MM

Ordered an Ioniq 5. Very interested in your videos. Please keep them going...
Good info.
I’m not far from Chippenham and go past Bicester now and again 👍🏻
Beautiful car and video. Salute from🇸🇮

@@markymarkreviews .. thats great to hear!
Thanks for sharing and it's definitely made me feel more relaxed about the journeys back and forth now.
@@jeffsmith559 👍
Thank you. That Chippenham Ionity station will be a more regular stop for my new BMW i4 as I travel up/down the M4.

Thank you for your efforts here.
good to see these ultra fast rates of charging!
Thanks for the heads up yet to try one myself, your video sure inspirers confidence.
Really great videos. Keep them coming. Would you be so kind and show us the side windows covered with water and where does the water go if it stays inside the door. Thank you very much.
3.1 but what was the average speed?
hello sir.
good videos. we just ordered a car similar to your same color and it all ,
so looking forward to your next videos.
continue the good work .

Thanks for the kind words/feedback. Will certainly try and continue. Where is DK? MM
Denmark:-)

Any new videos coming? Can’t wait

Great stuff Mark. Very useful.
We have just got our Ioniq 5 and will sign up. Do you think it would work charging our other electric car (e208) ?
Good question. It should. We also have the e-208 (wife’s). Will get round to trying it at some point.
Could I ask you why you had your lights on when charging?
When you get out of the car or unlock the car to get out, the daytime running/main lights come on and stay on for a little while unless you lock the car. They go off after 2-3 minutes. It gives the impression that they were on all the time but it was only when I got out to take the video portions at the start and near the end of the charge. MM

Electricity is sold in kWh, not kw (kW).
To sign up for hyundai card to get discount rates on Ionity you need to pay extra charge per month. Not really worth it if you use it once or twice a year
yep i worked out that if you are paying the sub you need to use more than 300KW to pay for the membership - which wouldn't be too hard

11kW is max on AC-charging regardless if the charger is a 22kW or not. ;)
Would you get 11kW or only 7kW from a 22kW 3-phase supply?
@@stephenholland5930 11kW 3-phase on a 22kW. The on board charger caps at 11kW like most EVs.
@@Danne89 Thanks, I will give it a try on my car.

@@markymarkreviews Correct, used it last week at 25p/kw. Perfectly happy with that, just need a few more installations.
