IONNA RECHARGERY - CHARGING TEST

EV Channels Review

This video provides an in-depth tour and initial charging test of the very first IONNA Rechargery in Apex, NC. The reviewer highlights IONNA's ambitious plan to install 30,000 chargers, a joint venture by eight major auto manufacturers. The Rechargery facility itself is praised for its thoughtful integration of amenities, including a cafe, co-working spaces, restrooms, and even an arcade, all housed within a renovated historic gas station. The charging infrastructure is noted to have 10 stations, with four supporting NACS (Tesla) and six supporting CCS. The reviewer experienced a 10-minute charging session, achieving a 25.8 kWh charge from 15% to 40% state of charge, with a peak output of 142 kW. The charging process, including payment via credit card, is described as easy and robust, featuring a flexible, damped cable management system. While the peak charging speed observed was 142 kW, the reviewer plans a follow-up to test a full 10-80% charge.
