  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Electric GV70

So I just came back from a Boston to Québec cruise, because of the distance between the starting and ending ports I left the car home for 10 days (Did the trip going to Boston in a Greyhound bus and from Québec by train). This being the EV, I left with an 85% charge, and came back to find the charge at 84%. So for anyone owning the EV and wondering about leaving it for a few weeks, you won't find a dead battery on your way back.

After about a week the car went into some sort of sleep mode, the app couldn't geolocate it, stating the car hadn't been started in a few days and would need to be started again for these services to work. Pretty sure this is to save on battery drainage, seems to work!

Aligns with our experience leaving our GV60P for 5+ months on 2 different occasions - negligible charge loss and no issues.
 
Hey guys I need a favor from those of you who own a 2026 GV70e. I'm about to take delivery of one tomorrow and when I was wrapping up the deal yesterday I was not able to locate the J1772 to NACS adapter in the car. We did find the CCS to NACS... Based on what I see here and in the Ioniq 5 groups it does appear that they supply both AC and DC NACS adapters correct? So (1) where was the J1772 adapter located when you collected your car and (2) is there any documentation that states that the car comes with both adapters? The salespeople were not very familiar with the various adapters... Understandable.. However if the car is supposed to be shipped with both and one is missing then they should find a replacement right? Thanks in advance.

Mine came with both adapters in a black case located in the trunk. If one is missing they should get you a replacement.

Well I never got the J1772 adapter with the car, instead it came with a 24 kW portable charger with a NACS connector.. They must have "upgraded" the J1772 adapter with this. Since I got the car at fire sale prices the dealer was not willing to toss in any freebies. I figure no reason to haggle over $40. I even got a spare one from ebay unwanted previously owned tesla ones for $20. Overall loving the car for being an un-EV... i.e. sunroof that opens, regular door handles, charging port in the front. :)

Yes they made a good job with it, I read China may make flush door handles illegal, those are a safety hazard and I'm surprised that's the first country to go in that direction (Hopefully others will follow). Two years in and that car still puts a smile on my face when I take the wheel, hoping the same to you and enjoy!

Forgot to mention: no "zero emission" stickers or any other clue of its propulsion method. Perfect for my needs. Contrast to the Teslas having to put on fake Toyota badges or "I hate Elon" bumper stickers which are hysterical.... :ROFLMAO:

Hi all. Does anyone here have a TuxMat 'SuperTrunk' Cargo Tray in their eGV70's cargo compartment? If so, how do you like it? And do you feel it's better than the WeatherTech cargo tray equivalent? I'm looking to buy a cargo tray for my '23 eGV70.
Thx, Richard

I don’t have that particular mat, but I’ve read good things about them.

I have this one for our GV60, and really like it. Seems similar in concept to the Tuxmat stuff:


We actually have those 3D Maxpider mats and cargo trays for all of our cars. HTH.
