The biggest downside to this car s the limited range in the Performance trim. I would like to see better route planning and wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. Otherwise, this is a solid luxury EV.
This car needs the luxury of more range. I’m surprised that it has the same range as the substantially larger electrified GV 70 which also has the same horsepower and boost mode. Maybe it will get the larger battery in 2025 like the refreshed Ioniq5.
I don’t mean to sound negative , as I love EVs. But until they put a stop to the vandalizing of EV stations, I’ve purchased my last EV. Nothing worse than trying to find a place to charge my car only to find the station is out of order because some creep has either cut the cable or simply damaged the station.
Reasonable position because finding destroyed stations/chargers is becoming very common. Seems like it has to be a limited number of people who could be easily caught.
@@cbotten106yes. I watched a video about people cutting cables. In Seattle, for example, the police are not doing anything about it. I don’t know. Every time this sort of things come up, I immediately think of underhanded things oil companies would do.
@@kelalamusic9258 Cutting the cables is usually just straight out copper material thievery. Copper is a semi-precious metal, after all. It's common for victims to have plumbing extracted from their homes for the Cu pipe. Unless they are just cutting them and throwing them down on the ground. I'm talking about vandalizing EV chargers just to say: Look at me! For the fun of it. In essence, I HATE electric. Blogging it almost. I don't think oil companies are trying to undermine EV infrastructure. EV infrastructure (save Tesla) is just a national tragedy, tbo. Tesla "super chargers" may patch the wound but once you turn the hoards loose (all brands) I suspect Tesla drivers will feel crowded at the plug. Good news is they might have cables and still work.
Far far better screwed together than the Model Y. High quality build.
Great car.
Lots of cool features.
Heated/ventilated/ massaging seats should be standard for front seats.
I've never had a problem with gloss black in a single car I've owned.
Not too much of a fan of the overall design aesthetic, but cant wait to see what they do for the Magma version.

Different personalities but yeah regardless range needs to be better.
