In reality, given equal charger availability, it's likely both cars would get to the destination in a similar amount of time.įor winter time driving, the Tesla's main advantages are
IONIQ 5 VS MODEL Y INSTALL
There are now other brands jumping into building solid fast charger stations, or existing brands like EVGo who are starting to install their next gen fast chargers.Īs to your 300 mile trip scenario, both cars would need to stop and charge once on the trip. Lastly, EA is no longer the only game in town. although getting them to expand this quickly is like pulling teeth, given that it's such a huge anti-competitive advantage for them. Especially on the coasts.Īlso, Tesla has finally (later than they claimed they would, per normal) started opening their charging network to CCS cars. It just so happens that the northern mid-west has seen a lot of delay in CCS charger buildout, whereas other regions have seen far more. "Supercharger" is specifically Tesla branded name for their chargers. Some regions have loads of, say it with me now, "CCS chargers" or "DC fast chargers". Your first two paragraphs are entirely geography dependent. I adore my i5 and have never had a better ride. Last thoughts are that even with the limitations of the Ioniq 5, I don't regret my choice. If you're a more practical person and/or drive longer ranges more often, then a Model Y is a no Brainer. So - if you rarely drive more than 150-200 miles in a day and are looking for a cooler, nicer car - go with the Ioniq. The Tesla screen controlling literally everything gets very annoying. My ioniq feels solid and is absolutely silent on the freeway. His Model Y has a few "rattles" that he says is pretty common with the car. It looks cooler, the construction quality is better, and it's just overall more comfortable. That said, we both agree that my Ioniq is MUCH nicer. My ioniq literally can't reach our destination due to lack of superchargers and lower range. We are planning a trip to Door County this Spring which is around 300 miles away and we would be CRAZY not to carpool in his model y. Considering he is able to supercharge almost anywhere, and I have nearly no DC fast CCS charging options, the model Y destroys the Ioniq 5 in long range drivability. During the winter (Wisconsin) I was getting around 180 miles at 80% charge, whereas he was getting around 230 at 80%. His model Y puts my Ioniq's range to shame. I have a '22 i5 SEL AWD and my best friend has a model Y that I drive once and a while and know a lot about from talking with him.
