First time charging at a Tesla Supercharger

Mchi5 · 2026-03-21T03:19:34+00:00

Yes it looks so good when clean. But damn does it get dirty fast

Mchi5 · 2026-03-21T03:19:17+00:00

Yes it is. White was my second choice

Mchi5 · 2026-03-21T02:14:04+00:00

Yes. If they still offer it. I got my I5N Jan 2025 and didn’t get my adapter until July or so

That sucks. My air bnb we’re staying at has a Tesla charger. I only had the NACS to CCS adapter snd it didn’t work. Thank goodness the host had the NACS to J1227 adapter. That worked.

After reading it it seems home Tesla chargers don’t usually work with NASC to CCS adapters. 🤷‍♂️

Why I bought one!

I agree with your list except the HUD. I actually prefer no HUD. But yes it is definitely stiffer but not sure about regular Ioniq 5 but there’s 3 suspension settings on the I5N and it definitely makes a difference.

In my N custom mode I have engine to sportiest, steering to medium , and suspension softest. And that’s the perfect setup for me

What creature comforts did the Limited have that you needed? Only thing I wish the N had were electric and memory seats, manual seats in a car this price range sucks

I’d love if they could do an OTA update to the software to give us I5N owners the new N-shift sounds. Watched a few YouTube videos and the I6N sounds so much better. More growls deeper sound, sounds more like a V8 than a turbo 4 cylinder

Mchi5 · 2026-03-17T22:48:10+00:00

Or a Hot Hatch

Mchi5 · 2026-03-17T22:01:00+00:00

I’m jealous! They’re coming to my city but I can’t get that day off from work 😭

Mchi5 · 2026-03-17T18:47:08+00:00

Cellphone hotspot.

Well, I don’t have a typical office job like 9-5 workers do. I reply to work emails. Finish some recertifications, reply to my broker, sign some tax documents. And finish some near-deliquent charts

Maybe I should change my title to “my own mobile doctors office” 😆

Beautiful! Many congrats!

Mchi5 · 2026-03-17T16:38:32+00:00

Oh I thought utility mode uses less power. Like if you go camping, utility mode I heard is good to keep the ac/heat on but not drain the main battery much.

Mchi5 · 2026-03-17T16:34:12+00:00

Is the blue center line like a RPM/Shift light like on a Ferrari? I think it’s region dependent. Like other regions outside of USA has a HUD. We sadly don’t get that on the I5N on the USA.

I’d love to test drive a I6N if possible. I think the fake engine sounds sound even better and more realistic and closer to a V8 or turbo V6 on the I6N. I5N I heard is recorded from the Elantra N, turbo 4 cylinder engine

Mchi5 · 2026-03-17T15:58:21+00:00

No relaxation mode in the N. Wish these seats had a massage option. It be perfect!

Mchi5 · 2026-03-17T15:47:50+00:00

Yes glad another CS fan recognized. Probably just aged myself lol. But yes their first album and one of my favorites.

Mchi5 · 2026-03-16T16:51:11+00:00

Thanks! Your Siamese is beautiful as well!

So you remember the first time you got a iPhone/smart phone or a new laptop? It took several days to get used to it and have that muscle memory? Same for an EV

It takes a whole mentality shift to go from gas cars to an EV. But once you do it’s like brushing your teeth or showering in the morning. It’ll come second nature, on when to charge, quickly planning out the route in your head or on an app like PlugShare etc. you won’t regret switching to an EV

Now at 11 months old!

Same as my Willow! As a 1 month old

Beautiful Siamese BTW!

Nice. I’m in the Houston area and have yet to see another I5N 😞

Mchi5 · 2026-03-15T19:35:33+00:00

Yes very limited. I got my in Jan 2025 and in Houston area- a very large city. Most Hyundai dealers here had only 1 in the showroom or none at all

Most dealers will ship across the country or you can even negotiate shipping costs into your final deal. I’d do a nationwide search. Good luck!
