How Difficult is a 1000 mile Trip with a Small Battery EV ? (Part I)

- We take our Ioniq Electric with a net usable battery capacity of just c24kWh for a ten day trip to the west of France. 1000 miles / 1600 km over just a bit more than a week. It's October and temperatures remain reasonably mild for day #1, from London to the city of Laval.

With my Zoe it was Impossible... 22kW, 13,3kw of consumption in city
Yes the first Zoe made it tricky all the more if you don't have the CCS port. The Ioniq is a bit special amongst the first gen EVs.
@@evdabbler But it can be charged at 42kW... Almost nowhere
Leave yourself plenty of spare time YOU ARE GOING TO NEED IT & DONT MAKE BOOKINGS AT SPECIFIC TIMES, they will all fail. .......
Regarding charging locations, were they planned? Did you have to change your mind at times, because of dysfunctional chargers? Did you use a phone app (which one) or did you rely on the on-board Hyundai map system? What do you use to obtain those live EV data on your phone? Thanks.
As you can see at 09:51 the locations were planned, and in fact the itinerary was even printed out (mostly to be able to report on actuals vs predicted here). All planned with the ABRP app. By now I am starting to be familiar with a number of the locations, and might plan much less ahead. the Hyundai map system is not really an option for this in my view (this would be different on more recent cars, e.g. a Megane or obviously all the Teslas). Would always look for 4 or more chargers per site, so that dysfunctional chargers is not a question. Increasingly, in France, this is becoming a non-issue on the motorway. I normally use canIoniq for recording/displaying the efficiency data.
@@evdabbler cheers. 🙏🏻
Oh, I miss the days of a small battery and a long way to go. It felt so intrepid. We have a 64kw/h Kia Soul now with a range of around 400km, which feels more like a petrol car on a day to day basis. And we couldn't't charge at home in the old days either... Ah, the adventurousness of it all.
I did a quick calculation and 4.3 miles/kw = 6.88km/kw = 14.5kw/100km. That's pretty good energy consumption. It's a good day when I can get the Soul below 15.5kw/100km. Good video.
Thanks. And yes the Soul is more boxy.
Wait - 9:09 - was that a queue for the fossil pumps?
Industrial action around cost of living for those working in refineries have meant shortages and long queues for petrol in that month in France ;-)
