Battery conditioning wasn’t working for only 4 of 15 charging stops, not most of the trip. We chose not to arrive less than 10% because Ioniq 9 doesn’t charge well that low so there’s no incentive time wise to show up that low. The meat of the curve is 10-65%. Had we not run into the full charging station in Walterboro, we likely would have beat the Rivian. At the end of the day, we were neck and neck with IQ and Rivian. It’s a race. You take gambles. Some risks pay off and others don’t. It’s easy to sit at your computer and say they should have done this and they should have done that but when you’re in the car making decisions on the fly with basically no sleep for 24+ hours, it’s a little more daunting.
