Very thorough just like we wanted it.

Colorado 2-yr lease on an Ioniq 5 SEL here. The free charging is limited to the first 30 minutes per day so your "charge to 80%" is important. The preconditioning (warmup takes as much as 30 minutes in the cold) is also important. During your 30 minutes free, you want to be getting the fastest charge available, so arrive warm and ready. Once the charge reaches 80%, the car slows down the charging rate so stop charging there. That might leave you a few more free minutes for the day for a top-up later.

Colorado ioniq user here. Just got mine today , thanks for the tutorial!

What apps are the best for reading battery health info? Used leafspy for my Nissan Leaf before. Saw online that there were a few options for ioniqs so curious if you have a preference or don't use them.

You forgot the emergency boot lid release (especially relevant for the Ioniq 6) which is a loop inside a little panel beside the left rear passenger seat. I found out about it as my 12V battery went flat, and then there was no way to get into the boot, where my jump-start battery was stowed. Regarding regen levels, I mostly stick to Level 3 with auto mode (the level does effect how much regen is given in auto; very different in level 1 & auto versus level 3 & auto). That is giving me great efficiency, a smooth ride and excellent braking when cars ahead suddenly slow down.

I love your videos. You're the best. When I bought my VW ID.4 early this year, I didn't learn much from my salesperson (I think it was the first EV she sold). I learned from your videos. Now I'm an expert and give advice to new VW owners on the ID.4 Owners Facebook page. But it all started with you. I've also been very surprised to experience the most hate I have ever received for anything in my life simply by owning an EV. You might be quite insulated from this living in CO, but in a deep red state like mine, everyone is conditioned by incessant Right Wing propaganda that they should absolutely despise EVs as unpatriotic. Their lord and savior, DJT, has made it his mission to "Drill baby drill" and it seems that everybody and his brother makes it their mission to tell me just what a Libtard I am for falling for the EV nonsense. I hear the exact same Fox News talking points from everybody, even the lady who cuts my hair. I was even surprised to get an outpouring of hatred from solar power enthusiasts when I posted a video of my solar EV charging station. They liked the solar, they hated that I was using it to charge something as vile as an EV. This is a more recent thing, but so far I have driven over a thousand miles on pure solar energy. No grid involved. I believe, like you stated, that given a chance to an open minded person, EVs would be found a superior mode of transportation to most people--NOT everyone, but most. However, what you might not be considering is how strong the anti-EV sentiment is in Red states. Identity politics has made tens of millions of people vote against their own interests, that's how strong it is.

Will the 2025 model still come with free 2 year charging?

I wonder who encouraged you to prepare this video of complete nonsense. Are you aware that the public in the US and in Europe and many other parts of the world with the exception perhaps of China is rejecting battery powered electric vehicles? And nobody cares that just because you have the luxury of recharging in your own home that you think electric cars are wonderful. This is not the point. The animosity that the public harbors toward electric vehicles has to do with the fact that they are forced to pay for them with direct subsidies and mandates. And all of this for a form of transportation that does not address the needs and concerns of the majority of the public. Furthermore even a high school physics student can tell you that low energy density power sources are not suitable for transportation. So when the buffoons running the car companies decided to transition to battery electric vehicles they soon found out that their engineering teams had to jump through hoops to make up for the shortcomings associated with the excessive weight of the traction battery - not to mention the thermal management issues. This comes at considerable additional expense - so is this what you're encouraging people to buy? You belong with the buffoon crowd.🤡🤡🤡

Why should I pay for another persons car? Thank god Trump won in a landslide. Elon believes that the debt that the US has is unsustainable. Go DOGE. I'm a public government worker and I have been living off the taxpayers dime.

GREAT VIDEO. SAVED!

I am sure all the ritewhingers who complaining about the economy and the price of eggs will flock to the Tesla shop to pick up their cyber truck now😂😂😂😂😂

EVs in general will definitely drop prices at a minimum $7,500 even at my location new unsold 2023/2024 Hyundai and Kia EV models are dropping prices up to $20,000 on their Ionic 5 and EV6

All of the OEM’s that are producing BEV’s or hybrids are not gonna let the tax credit go away without a significant amount of time for them to prepare. They’re already in talks with the Trump administration about it. The EV tax credit is not going away right at the first of the year through executive order.

I am heavily pondering this exact scenario -- to buy now or wait. Given the end of the (specifically used) tax credit is highly likely, its effect on EV prices I'm not so sure about. Every time I go to find a good deal on a used EV which might benefit from the $4,000 tax credit, the dealer has usurped the credit! None of them are passing the credit onto you. In other words, everything is inflated $4,000 in price almost automatically. The bad dealers even include it in the advertised price! Because of this, I don't think the credits are working or helping in any way. And if they go away, the dealers will be forced to lower their prices. Does that make any sense?

1st. If the 7,500 credit is the reason you’re “able” to afford a EV, then you really can’t afford it. 2nd. The EV tax credits are impacting depreciation in a big bad way. So you’re not really saving money with the credit. 3rd. Once people get over range anxiety and the chargers keep expanding, then the adoption will explode

Wonder why there so many sitting on the lots . gas will be under 2.00 soon .

I was going to buy a Modely Y after we test-drove it a couple of months ago but after seeing him for full nazi (Never go full nazi! lol - Tropic Thunder ref), I'm getting an F150 Lightning.

The way batteries have plunged in cost over the last decade, EVs should already be cheaper than similar sized ICE counterparts. I think manufacturers are keeping prices artificially high.

As someone who in month 2 of a 2 year lease on an Ioniq 6 I'm already thinking it maybe be better just to but the car when the lease is up

If it weren't for the $7500 tax credit I wouldn't be driving a 2024 model Y nor would my brother be driving a Chevy Bolt. The credit was the main reason to pull the trigger on a $48,000 Tesla that became a little more affordable to me. It goes without saying that Orange Julius Caesar will do the dumbest , most illogical thing possible so the credits will be gone until we get another democrat in the White House. I can understand a reluctance to enhance Musk's bottom line but I got my car before he became trump's besty and became a permanent fixture at Mara Lardo. Vote with your feet , it's a tried and true way to say what's on your mind.

Tesla is 100% off my list.

Costing me $7500, not happy.

I agree, I only purchased a 23 Tesla M3 because of the tax incentive now I will never go back to a gas vehicle , am now about to purchase my second prior to 1/20/25 of course not sure if I want to lease this time, I do love a new car every few yrs so leasing looks good.

Do you happen to have any inside knowledge on the differences between 2023 IONIQ 5's that were purchased VS leased for 2 years? For example what if 90% of 2023 IONIQ 5's were actually ''leased'' and not actually purchased, this could mean a lot more inventory would be coming back on the market in the next 90 days, resulting in lower prices for the 2nd owner's:

So if you own a house you can have an EV if not keep driving that Civic 😅

just watched some one in US bought BYD Shark in mexico and drive it to US. he said he paid 14K and monthly around 1k usd (for 72 months). if u afraid to buy an EV, this BYD shark is kinda between EV (short range around town less than 60 miles pure ev range) plus the benefit of ICE car (with built in generator to charge the battery. combine range will have more than 600 miles)

Convenient if you're a home owner. For now anyway.

Greetings, neighbor! I'm out here in Fort Morgan, CO. My wife and I bought our 2024 Kona EV's earlier this year and couldn't be happier. She bought hers first and I got jealous and traded in my Hyundai Santa Cruz 3 weeks later. With the $7500 Hyundai discount and the $5350 state tax credit, we paid less than the ICE equivalents. We survived for the first 5 months with just the level 1 chargers that came with the cars. I installed a level 2 charger in September. We're taking our second road trip the week after Thanksgiving to Kansas. It'll be nice to get a real-world experience of how winter driving affects range. There seems to be plenty of charging stations along I-70, so I'm not too concerned.

Do not obey in advance. A repeal of the IRA is not inevitable, and I think many senators are going to have a hard time voting in favor of fewer jobs in their states

Thanks Bob. I bought an EV today and there was no tax credit. I agree that EVs are here to stay. Battery technology is rapidly advancing. This is similar to the issue of solar power, where improvements in technology resulted in solar becoming a cost competitive generation technology.

The orange felon can't just eliminate the EV tax credit by executive order since the IRA was enacted into law by Congress and the president. The incoming administration is going to have to write legislation to repeal parts or all the IRA. Let's see if republicans can now govern and whether this is a priority they will take on day one. Also, those swing states who voted red are already suffering from job losses from the OEMs so slowing EV is also going to add more job losses for the OEMs too. Rain doesn't fall on just one person's doorstep, it's everyone.

infrastructure is growing at a pretty good pace. IONNA, PILOT/FLYING J, and TESLA have been dropping stations in the ground like mad. But there are others out there that are adding to the infrastructure also.

I've been enjoying driving my Ev over the last 5 years, thanks !

I've leased an Ioniq 5 for the next three years. A lot can happen politically in three years.

Has anyone not bought a Ford or Chevy or Dodge because of the CEO's political or social position? Has any one not bought a iPhone or Android for the same reasons ? NO ! Any one that does not buy a product for any other reason other than quality features and price is not the brightest individual period. The auto companies are gonna have to start getting off the butts and compete. If these start up and foreign car companies can do it the big three better figure it out and have the guts to make those changes. Leasing an auto is the worst financial decision for the individual but a big money make for the auto makers. Why do you think they push leasing.

Thank God. The damn things have no benefits whatsoever.

Thanks, Bob. Have a great day. I agree now is the time to buy. Replace that old gas guzzler with an EV and be so much better off for it.

EV TAX CREDIT IS ---- WELFARE FOR THE RICH ---- JUST WHAT WE NEED ---- MORE WELFARE FOR THE RICH --- NOT TO MENTION EV MANUFACTURE CREATES TONS AND TONS OF TOXIC WASTE AND DEPENDS UPON "CHILD LABOR" IN THIRD WORLD CONTRIES. P.S. THE very old archaic power gid does not have --- and never will-- you joker xdiot be able to handle "BASE LOAD" FOR YOU SPOILED RICH PEOPLE.

Im glad you have a good time making these videos because I am enjoying your content! I am waiting for the 2025 Ioniq 5 even if I miss the tax credit. Any word from corporate on the delivery of the 2025?

This setback is just the tip of the (melting) iceberg. The planet is now fracked by the incoming administration. Bet'cha that E'loon's "efficiency" changes will NOT eliminate the fossil fuel subsidies. Wanna bet?

Does this work in really tight parking spaces that would require a lot of manoeuvring or just simple cases like the one you demonstrated? (I am not talking angled or anything, just perpendicular parking in a tight driveway, in a tight parking rectangle)

Avalanche of information a newbie has no idea existed. Having seen numerous videos on the Ionic 5 and trying to make a decision on EVs, this was far and away the most useful video on the car’s capabilities I have watched to date. Thank you for your effort and expertise.

Lots of great stuff here that my salesman didn't cover.

I thought that preconditioning needed a half hour to work correctly? If I choose a destination that is a hundred miles from me, it won’t show me a station that far away unless I search for it. Then, I have to select it as a waypoint? I’m really confused about this question. The Ioniq is certainly like taking a college course for this sixty year old fart 😅

Subscribed today. excellent content with clear and effective audio. I am planning on leasing an Ioniq 5 2025. Can you provide some commentary on any subscriptions that are required ? thanks. I test drove the 2024 today and the incentives they are offering for current inventory is really getting my attention.

Did you mean "magic dock" when you said adapter? Hyundai doesn't have approval to use a supercharger, even with an adapter.

By the time 2025's start rolling out of Georgia, in volume, the Federal Tax credits will be terminated.

Hey! Another NoCo Ioniq user!

I bought a 24 I5 SE. Great city car. I love it. Got a great deal.
