    I sat down with Corbin, who just took delivery of a 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 with native NACS, to hear about his 2,000-mile road trip across the country. He tested Tesla Superchargers, Electrify America, EVGO/Pilot, Rivian Adventure Network, and even Ionna stations, facing both smooth sessions and unexpected issues along the way. With Tesla's 500V limit on V3 cabinets, using NACS on an 800V EV isn't as easy as it sounds.Thank You Corbin, check out his channel and roadtrip video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZVaVgVOvj0Ioniq 5 versus the Model 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7F0h1jXlMAShoutout to our sponsors for more information find their links below:- Fort Collins Kia: Visit focokia.com for full details.

    Check Out Our Out of Spec Data: https://outofspecstudios.com/chargingTesla has officially uncorked all V4 Supercharger posts in North America, allowing the Cybertruck to charge at up to 325kW! This is made possible by increasing amperage to 900A, thanks to the improved cooling of V4 dispensers. However, these chargers are still using V3 cabinets, meaning they remain limited to 500V output.What does this mean for Cybertruck owners? Will other Tesla vehicles see faster charging speeds? And when will true V4 cabinets with 1000V and 500kW arrive? Join me as I break down everything you need to know about Tesla's latest Supercharger upgrade!Shoutout to our sponsors for more information find their links below:- Fort Collins Kia: Visit focokia.com for full details.
