EV Channels Review
The IONNA Rechargery in Garner, North Carolina, sets a new benchmark for EV charging infrastructure, offering a comprehensive and user-friendly experience. The reviewer highlights the station's excellent amenities, including pull-through stalls, a covered canopy extending to the market entrance, and a 24/7 market featuring Amazon's "just walk out" technology. The charging test with a Ford F-150 Lightning demonstrated strong performance, peaking at 181 kW and averaging 140 kW, with a competitive introductory price of 39 cents per kWh plus tax. The reviewer praises the site's convenient location off I-40, its variety of charging options (CCS and NACS), and the overall thoughtful design that anticipates EV driver needs. While a microwave in the market and perhaps vacuums were noted as potential additions, the facility is largely deemed complete and a significant improvement over existing options, particularly when compared to nearby Tesla Supercharger pricing.
