The graph are broken without the temperature also added. Some cars are done in winter and some in summer. Some cars overheat and some gets too cold.

Also this is a pure race perfected with charging at the best possible locations etc. For example you would need to be a true enthusiast do go 1000km in the Ioniq 28 under 12h while in any of the MEB ID's you can do it with comfort not thinkoing too much and being able to jump a charger if it's broken.

Ioniq 5 is a gussler and requires 250kW+ chargers to do it's thing. Do the same on only 400V chargers and the results would change quite a bit. I like the Ioniq 5 but it's a thirsty thingy.

(Edit: I see the article are basically saying what I say too and including more detail heh)

Here are Nyland all his results with temperatures and weather,.....

Here is another German guy doing the 1000km challenge

• big battery 73KWh AWD video
• small battery 58 KWh RWD video

With the 1000km they wants to prove the sceptic people that don't believe in EV's, that it is possible to do long trip in a even short time than with an ICE car.
All this tests have be done with European versions.
Please notice that our North American friends will get a bigger 78 KWh battery.

Isn't the 78kwh actually the same.battery as the 73, it's just Hyundai USA quoting Gross capacity Vs here in Europe quoting usable capacity?

No, both are the netto capacity values.
The IONIQ 5 in North America, the battery unit is completely full and has 2 battery cell packages more than the rest of the world, where they took 2 battery cell packages out (approximately at the height of the rear passengers) I have seen the 2 battery units open.
In fact they get the same battery as the Kia EV6 and Genesis GV60.
In North America they have in average greater distances to do and in Europe for example they took a lighter battery, resulting in a lower total weight and a quicker acceleration, which is more important for Europe.

Thans Jaz, I was wondering the same thing. I could not find any articles on this. Is there a reference you could share?
