IONNA more than doubled in 2026, passing 180 live sites
The automaker-backed network is now the leader in 400 kW stalls — and the steepest ramp yet toward its 30,000-bay 2030 target.
IONNA’s fast-charging network has more than doubled in size during 2026, surpassing 180 live sites and 1,500 DC fast-charging stalls, according to October 2026 reporting. The automaker-backed network — founded by BMW, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz, Stellantis and Toyota — is working toward 30,000 high-power charging bays by 2030.
The differentiator is power: every stall can deliver up to 400 kW of peak power, making IONNA the market leader in the 400 kW-plus segment. It also leads non-Tesla networks in NACS (SAE J3400) deployment, with about 36% of its stalls (548) equipped with NACS connectors against an industry average of roughly 12%. Average pricing of $0.38/kWh sits well below the industry average of $0.56/kWh, per the DCFC Tracker.
The buildout is increasingly partnership-driven: a deal with Circle K puts more than 350 sites in scope under the “Rechargeries @ Circle K” banner, with the first co-branded locations expected by the end of 2026. In September, IONNA topped the JD Power 2026 U.S. Electric Vehicle Experience public-charging satisfaction ranking with 807 points out of 1,000.
