Can the 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 Use Tesla Superchargers in San Bruno, CA?

Hyundai of San Bruno – Can the 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 Use Tesla Superchargers in San Bruno, CA?

The 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 makes public charging simpler around San Bruno by debuting a native NACS port—meaning you can plug directly into most Tesla Superchargers without an adapter. That unlocks a robust fast-charging experience on roadways like I-280 and US-101, from daily commuting through South San Francisco to weekend drives down the Peninsula. At Hyundai of San Bruno, we want to clarify what this compatibility means in the real world—how quickly you can charge, what equipment is included, and how to plan your routes with confidence.

With a high-voltage architecture that accepts both NACS and CCS, the 2025 IONIQ 5 gives you flexibility whether you’re topping up near SFO or setting out for a longer adventure. You get access to over 17,000 Tesla Superchargers with the vehicle’s built-in NACS port, plus a CCS adapter for other networks such as Electrify America—adding up to 36,000 DC fast-charging options across the country. Below is a quick snapshot of the key facts shoppers ask us about most often.

  • Connector standard: NACS port built in—no adapter required at compatible Tesla Superchargers
  • Included adapter: CCS adapter provided for non-NACS DC fast-charging networks
  • V3/V4 Supercharging power: Up to 250kW DC Level 3 capability
  • 10-80% on NACS: Approximately 30 minutes—SE trim in as little as 24 minutes
  • 10-80% on 350kW CCS: In as little as 20 minutes via the included CCS adapter
  • Home Level 2 (240V): About 7 hours 20 minutes to go 10-100%—SE Standard Range in about 5 hours 40 minutes
  • EPA-estimated range: Up to 318 miles, depending on configuration
  • Battery coverage: Limited Battery Warranty for 10 years/100,000 miles

When you’re navigating the Bay Area’s mix of Superchargers and other DC fast chargers, the IONIQ 5 keeps the process straightforward. For quick turnarounds—say, between San Bruno and San Mateo—NACS access is especially convenient. And for longer trips, the 2025 IONIQ 5 pairs its charging hardware with smart software like EV Route Planner, which can locate charging stops and refresh navigation as you go.

  1. Plan your stop: Use EV Route Planner to preview charger locations, amenities, and estimated time to your next waypoint
  2. Choose your connector: Plug directly into NACS at compatible Tesla Superchargers, or use the included CCS adapter on other networks
  3. Target the sweet spot: For the fastest sessions, arrive with a lower state of charge and charge to roughly 80% for optimal time savings
  4. Mind power availability: Session speed may vary based on station output, site usage, and battery temperature
  5. Finish efficiently: Resume driving once you reach your planned charge target—DC fast speeds naturally taper as you near full

Beyond fast charging, the IONIQ 5’s everyday ease stands out. The e-GMP platform’s flat floor and long wheelbase deliver spacious comfort for errands around Tanforan and family trips along the coast. Available Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) 120V outlets can power everything from a laptop during meetings to a small grill at a weekend picnic. And when you want the simplest home setup, a 240V Level 2 charger can have your IONIQ 5 ready by morning—no gas station detours required.

If you are transitioning to your first EV, our team can walk you through Hyundai Home for streamlined home charging solutions, and review the ChargePoint® benefit for 2025 IONIQ 5 buyers and lessees—choose a $400 ChargePoint® out-of-home charging credit or a ChargePoint Home Flex Level 2 EV charger. Pair that with Hyundai SmartSense driver assistance features and the confidence of our battery coverage, and you have an EV that’s engineered to fit Bay Area life with minimal compromise and maximum freedom.
