All public charge points except fast chargers with CHAdeMo only

Saw an Ioniq 172D coming out of the estate opposite my own (off Griffeen Glen) in Lucan. It went to the local FCP but didn't charge. At the local FCP there was another white Ioniq 171G about to charge. Either one anyone in here?

If it was on Saturday (whwen you posted) then not us though we do visit a friend in Griffeen Glen occasionally - I had to rack my brain to think were we out there this weekend or not! Funnily one of their neighbours also has a white 171 Ioniq.

Just wondering what range everyone is getting after charging to full on the home charger. I know the range differs with everyone's usage but what number shows up when you turn the car on. I get 192km to 198km but sometimes lower. I remember the first charge went to about 218km

I get around 207km when fully charged. Not sure what range I actually get though.

Was getting 240kms during summer, back to 208kms now

Fiery mutant · 20-10-2017 11:35PM

Topped out at about 250 during the summer, getting about 220-230 now.

Nice to see Hyundai finally upping production on the Ioniq; especially for export.

If they offer discounts here, as the article claims is happening in Spain, to compete with the new Leaf, that could spice things up.

Up the production from 1000 per month to 2000 per month? That's hardly gonna cut the mustard. I've no doubt they could easily sell 20000 per month...

Another strong word from inside Hyundai Ireland that RHD Ioniqs won't be available in the foreseeable future.

The problem is that if/when they become available, they will probably be surpassed by other models in battery size and chemistry.

So far you seem to be the only source for these rumours.
I'm going to reserve a pinch of salt just in case. I've not seen whiff of a rumour from any other RHD markets.

I was talking to a guy who picked up his around 6 weeks ago. At the time they were predicting January for new orders.

unkel · 22-10-2017 07:47PM

Owners in the UK are still regularly picking their new cars up. Also seeing reports of ships with their cars on them and ETAs etc. All ordered many months ago though.

Ballylad · 22-10-2017 08:41PM

This new 40kw leaf has a claimed real range of 150miles, is this true?,if so hardly worth getting one if it is that inefficient compared to the Ioniq

unkel · 22-10-2017 09:06PM

Range is still 25% more than the Ioniq, which is only a little bit cheaper to buy, maybe 2 grand or so once the cheaper model Leaf 2 becomes available. And the bigger the batteries get, the less important efficiency gets. And let's be honest. Who cares if filling up your car at home is costing €1.90 or €2.70?

22-10-2017 09:20PM

It will be interesting to get some real range reports rather than speculation.

I still have not made up my mind what I will do.

Dont be at yourself · 22-10-2017 09:34PM

My most frequent 'long' trip is North Dublin - Newry. At the moment, it just about necessitates a stop in one of the (thankfully plentiful) fast chargers en-route. An extra 50km range and it essentially ceases to be an issue for me. My eye is on the Kona for now!

Ballylad · 22-10-2017 09:41PM

I am tempted to buy it as second ev, in the short term, they should hold their value relatively well until battery size increases greatly. Like the efficiency of the Ioniq and 5yr warranty

You better make your mind up or you'll be stuck to that oul Leaf

This thread is hard enough to follow with, or more to the point pick out real information from, without this. What exactly do you mean that Right hand drives won't be available? I've seen these with my own eyes.

If a 2nd hand 33 Kwh I3 rex came up with the right Spec I'd give it serious consideration.

But it's likely I'll end up with the Newer leaf, I hate the possibility of having to wait until February though and we all know that it will probably be very late February.

unkel · 22-10-2017 10:36PM

Get your other half the new Leaf and get an i3 for yourself

Too small for her, she recently bought a 152 Outlander 7 seater. If there had been an electric version she would have got it, the PHEV was 5 seater so that wasn't an option.

It will surely do 15Kwh/100km normal driving

38Kwh battery

250km range

More efficient Ioniq @ 12 Kwh/100km with same battery would do over 315km

With a battery upgrade the Ioniq is a serious contender with its class leading efficiency

22-10-2017 11:48PM

My experience in the Ioniq was 15.3 Kwh/100 Kms on a 207 Km test drive and matched pretty close the EPA test.

I'm only going on owners average, most saying its about 12Kwh

Ah sure what would us owners in this thread know. We've only driven Ioniq for well over 100k km between us. Mad Lad is a much more reliable source of information :pac:

My son is in the industry, specifically Hyundai. He keeps hearing stuff coming out of meetings at Hyundai Ireland that RHD models aren't being produced at the moment, and there's no immediate plan to restart production. I'm sure there's some older stock still floating around.

Most dealers here and the UK aren't taking orders at the moment. Is that a sign that the whispers might be right? Who knows, certainly not me. I'm only passing on what I hear. cros13 said he'd try to find out what the story was, but hasn't come back on it.

The info I'm getting could be the ripest of rubbish, but it keeps dripping out of Hyundai Ireland.

Thanks Falcon.

I wonder how much is sales managers trying to hit targets.
I wouldn't want to sell an Ioniq knowing that the sale wouldn't be booked for another 6 months.

Falcon L · 23-10-2017 03:21PM

I just came from my local Hyundai dealer. The salesman said that they will have cars delivered February or March. "Great" I said "I would like to order one, and put a deposit down today". Loads of "ermmm ahhhh welllll" followed. "We can't take an order now" he said. "Why not?" I asked. the final answer, after a load of waffle, was "we just can't"

I asked him if they would sell their only demonstrator, a 172. He said it'll probably be sold next month. Read into that what you will.

By the way, I would love to be proven wrong on this. I hope I am.

looks like they don't want to sell more cars then.

Soarer · 23-10-2017 06:43PM

Well if that's the situation, I think I'll be going for a ex-demonstrator (possibly uk) Ioniq over the Leaf 2.

Couldn't justify the price differential.

fitz213 · 23-10-2017 07:07PM

Just bought an ex-demo which was been held back till the new stock arrived but when that wasn't coming, they sold it.

Thanks for answering all my questions. Wouldn't have bought without boards!
