I wasn't really even holding my breath for the "free" part. I'd just like a branded, safe option.

This one is available and works well, sold by Hyundai parts dept at your local dealer and here is the part#
Just a note... if not in stock be sure to order the same description as marked on the adapter (CCS1 car to NACS) as they actually have a second one (NACS car to CCS1) for the newer models equipped with a NACS charging port

Really happy after 16 months of ownership, battery capacity has not lowered ( 61.154 kW usable c/w 3.346 kW buffer) and the range once again exceeds the EPA listing of 420 kms now shows 446 kms and climbing.
Here are some shots...note most of my charging has been DC (91) compared to AC (45).
For kicks...here is the same shots taken the last time I charged to 100% back~ Feb

Car scanner Pro (Android version) c/w the suggested Vgate Pro Bluetooth ble ELM327 OBD2 adaptor.
Driving an ICE loaner right now (2026 Tucson). 
First time in 14 years
I hate having to brake (remember that term ?) at every light, and the engine vibration drives me nuts. Thank God its got that awful stuff in some storage tank so I don't have to refill it $2.10/L
I did sneak a picture of my new baby while I await ceramic coating.

It's been a blast, but I will still will stop by to say hello, as I will be posting more in this form ongoing.
The Kona EV was the most car fun I have ever had and still is a great car for the $.
BTW if anyone wants a great deal on my once (12 kWh delivered) used Hyundai brand NACS/CCS adaptor, or a
Rockville spare tire sub-woofer, ( you will need a new remote and hook up harness) let me know...Ed

As promised, Hello
I was bored (rain).
Wasted some moments of life trying out some AI for the first time. (Thanks Andre)
I didn't want to cause mental discomfort for myself in another forum.

Wonders never cease...
I just got a call from my dealer and was told that I'm getting a free NACS adapter. I was required to make a 1 hour appointment. Not sure what that's about but hopefully at the end of it there's a freebie.

Probably a sales tactic to try and sell you a new car…
By the end of the following hour, you will fully understand important things about your vehicle and how to make it go.
1. You will learn what electricity is and how it gets into your vehicle
2. You will be warned that the miracle of electrical current is not always your friend
3. You will be advised about the reasons to fully or partially charge your vehicle
4. You will see a video of the various on-screen menus that control charging
5. You will see a video of the possible charging problems you might encounter
6. You will see a video illustrating the evolution of charging connectors
7. You will see a video recommending the best commercial vendors of electricity for your vehicle
8. You will see a video of the newer electric cars this dealer offers that can simplify the charging process
9. You will receive a complimentary charging adapter that you won't need if you buy a new electric vehicle from this dealer
10. You will be treated to electrically cooled lemonade and electrically baked cookies at the end of this 1-hour presentation

Cookies? I'm in!
Well I'm back Folks, operable and functional
Had a month worth of practice, mastering the little things one can accomplish while not actually driving my brand new Ioniq 5.
Of all the discoveries thorough proficient diagnosis (you know, camera/mirror stuff etc.), my favorite one is not included in any EV user manual...
Anything you can carry in the right pocket of a pair of sweatpants, automatically fall into the center console storage bin... never to be lost again!
One of these days (weeks), I might have the wonderful opportunity to open all those little packages from Amazon
Roof racks, visors, screen protectors etc.
Hope they all fit...
After a month of asking at the library and various stores if they had any lost sunglasses, I found them between the seat and the center armrest/console of my MINI. I'd swear I looked there at least 10 times before finding them there. I'm now working on conspiracy theories.
Maybe change them to bifocals?

That's Scott, foreman on the new Cancer Clinic project at NRGH.
I bought the crew a bag of fruit for lunch to thank them for their kindness.
Some dude actually gave me a brand new Toronto Maple Leafs lighter out of the blue when he saw me struggling on a bad day.
When I finally got out of that place
, the whole crew cheered when they saw me pass through the exit, nurses were not impressed (maybe I should have shaved?).The lighter now sits on my range top.
Btw that's me, the handsome one with the blue jacket.
This is not my new EV, just admiring the pink helmet;
