#ionna — Public Fediverse posts

First #EV charging experience at an #IONNA station yesterday, and it was *vastly* superior to others I’ve tried (#EVgo, #ElectrifyAmerica).

First, no account and no app required. Tap to pay just worked, which, I know, seems obvious, but EV owners recognize that as a minor miracle. It was as simple as fueling at a gas station — simpler, actually, as I didn’t even have to enter my ZIP Code, and the machine didn’t beep at me once!

Second, charging started immediately and was super fast. Superior to the others.

Third, it was cheap! 39 cents/kWh. Other fast chargers in my area are ~60 cents/kWh. Some also have 99-cent “session fees.” (I recognize pricing can change; I assume they are starting off low to encourage new customers like me, and will increase later. 🤷‍♂️)

Fourth, the interface and brand elements were great. Everything worked together. What a concept! There are even optional charts with charging curves for the full nerdy level of detail. 🤓

I wish IONNA success! More across #California please!

"Throwing #NEVI into the chopper hurts investors, workers, and taxpayers, but it doesn’t put a stop to #EVCharging activity in the US.

The #IONNA EV charging joint venture unveiled plans to go national with its driver-centered “Rechargery” charging station model, which treats drivers to a lounge-style experience while they’re waiting to fill up."
