How to charge a Hyundai Ioniq 5 (how long, cost & how many kwh)?
Answered by CarsGuide
26 Nov 2024There are three ways of charging the Hyundai Ioniq 5 – two at home methods, and one in public. The slowest, albeit the most affordable and convenient, is by installing an 11kW wall-mounted charger box. These retail for roughly $800-$2000, depending on the manufacturer and the power supply, with additional energy costs averaging between 21-36 cents per kW, depending on your energy provider. Additional costings can be zero if you’re hooked up to a renewable source such as solar. All up, it will deliver a charge time of 5 hours on the Standard Range variant and up to 6.75 hours on the Long Range variant. The other at-home method is through a conventional 240V powerpoint, which takes about 24 hours on the Standard Range variant and 37 hours on the Long Range variant. A public charging station of 50kW will deliver a zero to 80 per cent charge in 55 minutes for the Standard range, rising to 1.5 hours on the Long Range, while a 250kW+ charger will see the time it takes drop to 15 minutes and 18 minutes, respectively. Cost is dependent on location, whether it is a peak period or not, and what the charger’s capacity is, though as a general rule you should never pay more than $40 for a full charge.
