Practical Notes: iX on FLO

The iX's CCS port plugs directly into FLO's CCS stalls without an adapter. Check the FLO app before your first session to confirm which connector your target station uses — mixed-connector deployments are common in 2026.

On a session-by-session basis, the iX's 195 kW peak charging speed exceeds what FLO's Level 2 hardware can deliver. You'll be limited by the car's onboard AC charger (11 kW), so a full charge takes roughly 7h 58m. L2 is best for destination or overnight charging, not road-trip pit stops.

Cost-wise, one $30.66 full charge on FLO represents $0.10 per mile of driving — about 9.9¢/mile. A gas equivalent at 30 mpg and $3.50/gal is roughly 11.7¢/mile, so this charging session is still cheaper than gas. Over 15,000 miles/year, exclusive reliance on FLO would cost roughly $1,860.44/year in fuel — a meaningful delta compared to mostly-home charging (~$877.06/year).

For most iX owners, the realistic use-pattern for FLO is road trips and occasional top-ups — not primary fueling. If you live in an apartment or condo and rely on public charging as your main option, factor in the per-session pricing with no membership option. For regular home charging in a specific state, check our home vs public analysis and your iX state-by-state breakdown.

Data sources: FLO published rate card; EPA fueleconomy.gov; manufacturer specs; EIA residential electricity averages. Charging speed and effective cost vary with temperature, state-of-charge, and station power.
