First real outing, sort of a shakedown trip. Did a loop, Langley > Hope > Merritt > Logan Lake > Kamloops > Cache Creek and return via Fraser Canyon. I planned a max speed of 90 kmh to conserve. Total trip was 770 kms and required 5 charge stops. I also used […]
Took delivery January 19, 2022. Delightful drive home. Hoping to use the Ioniq 5 as tow vehicle for the Ascape on occasion.
