- Опубликовано: 10 июн 2024
- Is this the perfect upgrade to the Tesla Model 3? That's what I want to figure out. We need a bigger car and want it to be an EV and the 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 could be the one.
Paul Maric gets behind the wheel of Hyundai's all-new Ioniq 5 to see whether it's worth the switch from the Tesla Model 3.

#hyundai #ioniq5 #review 
Авто/Мото
I have an Ioniq 5 (Project 45) Gravity Gold (with Solar Roof). I traded in my BMW X1 and I never thought I'd end up buying a Hyundai, ever! But I've had my P45 since Sept 2021 and I love it. It's a real head-turner around town, no other car looks like it on the road. I don't have any problems at higher speeds on twisty UK country lanes or motorway cruising. This is by far the best car I've ever owned. It's just so dam hard to get hold of them, even in the UK.
Good to hear. Replacing my wife's M135i and two weeks to go until our Gravity Grey arrives, one of small first batch to arrive down under this year. She's loved the BMW as have I but there's something about this car that grabs me it has the best packaged combination of everything you need in a car and the coolest looks!
Had the ioniq 5 for a week now, it’s everything I expected but even better, the materials are much higher quality than I expected after Mat Watsons Carwow review…truly is a premium car and we love it
I ordered mine in the UK in December, quoted end of march delivery. Went with thr ultimate awd in teal green. Actually saw a gravity gold p45 in South wales yesterday
Wow. A proper quality review! I have watched basically every single car channels video about this car, and yours is by far the most professional, detailed and well presented. Well done
Thanks mate!
Fun fact, the 4 pixels on the steering wheel represent 'H' in Morse code.
That’s cool!
"Put it in H"
Pretty sure there are 256 light pixels, making it an 8 bit car for all the easter egg fans.
@@phonicfrog_ Normally, a brand puts their logo on the steering wheel. For Hyundai, it is a stylized H. With this car, they went with Morse code for their H logo.
@@ronlaverdiere not sure if you know what i was referencing but if not, search "put it in H Simpsons'
Might make more sense
Hyundai has done a good job by taking care of the customers needs inside the cabin
This car looks absolutely incredible to me. I've been waiting for this review.
Thanks for watching!
Looks like a Honda
@@KaizenOz Hyundai was made 2 years earlier and honda acura is small company so honda looks like a Hyundai
I really impressed with Hyundai design this time.
Appreciate the door close sound test. One of the most important things for someone like me. I had expensive cars with doors close sounding cheap
😁
Did you own a 70 series landcruiser?
@@brodog750 no
So it wasn’t that important to you, if you bought the cars anyway.
@@larjkok1184 its not apparent to you when you test drive.
I love the design of this car. To me it looks like a scaled-up 1980s Lancia Delta Integrale. I never thought I'd ever lust after a Hyundai but each review makes me want this more and more.
I feel the same. The Ioniq 5 is the first EV Iv'e actually really wanted.
It's because the Ioniq is designed based on the Hyundai Pony, which was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro. And guess who designed the Delta? Yep, Giorgetto Giugiaro.
I would love a deeper dive into EV charging. Curious about single phase and three phase differences, on peak /off peak or smart features such as integration into solar/batteries. Also if you can limit the charging speed so that you don't go over your solar generation and draw from the grid.
Sounds great!
Good point. Wasn't there somethign about the 800V architecture that allows for rapid charging to 80 per cent in like 18 minutes or something?
Check out Munro Live on youtube !!!
Bro you stress too much! Just plug in and party!~~!
Also would love a more in depth explanation, thanks
love the fact that you picked the matching jumper to wear Paul ! That interiour is excellent - maybe not if you're a family whose kids are growing up and learning about icecream and chocolates :)
I'm from Adelaide and now I live in Berlin and have an I.5 Project 45 H Drive Ultimate spec. I've got 2500 kms on the clock.
It has a couple of features missing with your test sample, being the Solar roof, the Head Up Display, and BlueLink (the Hyundai OTA app that allows you to monitor and control certain features of the vehicle)
The solar roof is excellent. On a sunny day you can leave the outside air fan ventilation on with a window or two slightly open to allow the heat load in the vehicle not to climb too high, without jeopardizing the security system. It helps that the solar roof has additional insulation underneath it plus we have acoustic glass all around which I also feel has an insulating effect .....although admittedly Berlin summers are a world away from an full force Adelaide heat wave.
You can program the rear window to run the heating elements which will melt snow on contact, and the battery's Heat Pump can precondition your battery on a cold day as well as pre heat the vehicle ready for your journey. The vast majority of car owners in large cities in Germany do not have garages so a warm car in the middle of winter is a blessing.
The cars HVAC system works with GPS and knows instantly when you are about to enter a tunnel, a dusty road, stop start or idling traffic, roadworks etc. or use the windscreen washers and will automatically set the HVAC to filtered internal air recycling and off again when the parameters change.
The head up display is fabulous, bright and fully adjustable so no matter the driver and their individual driving position it's always positioned perfectly. In stop star traffic it will prompt you of other vehicles whereabouts even if the navigation is not in use or you haven't activated the Driver Assistance suite.
Because most of us park on the street, the Auto Park function is very welcome. This is a large long wheelbase car, way bigger than the surrounding VW Golfs and BMW 3's and the ability to seek a car parking spot at 20kmh and have the car sweep into either a parallel park or a tail in 90' park swiftly is awesome. You do need a quiet street before you do this if you intend to get out of the car while it does its parking ballet lest you incur the incredulous shouts and horns of drivers waiting behind. NOTE: I would never try the auto park function in the snow as the sensors may be rendered inoperable because of snow build up.
BlueLink allows you to plan your journey at home including charging stops and send it to the car's navigation. The Hyundai app and navigation will also pro actively steer you around roadworks particularly on Autobahns well ahead of time and can very quickly identify alternate routes on the fly. Even without the navigation system on it will warn of stationary traffic ahead on the Autobahn.
We've yet to test the car in the depths of winter, but I suspect with heating on, heated steering wheel, window defrost front and rear and Highway Driving Assistance running on a trip between Berlin and Copenhagen will see the real world driving range plummeting. Thank goodness for a decent fast charging network......although (and this is not talked about much) it is not recommended that you fast charge your car to 100% regularly or even consecutively or risk permanently damaging the battery. So an 80% top up is realistically all you should be running during a long trip.
The last comment I'll make is about the paint. We have the matt paint Galaxy Gold. This paint requires you to hand wash the car or risk the buffing of the spinning barrel washers of automatic car washes and the residual wax on the washing straps creating irreparable shiny blotches on the paintwork. Again perhaps not an issue in Australia where you can easily wash the car by hand in a private driveway or a car wash bay within an apartment block.....I have to wash the car with a bucket and hand pump spray on the street which is far from ideal. Bird droppings and tree-sap has to be removed promptly or risk a permanent blemish.
Otherwise I cannot really fault the car. We've had it for just over 4 months and it turns heads wherever we go. Current allocations are all taken and there is supposed to be a long waiting list ......yet in Berlin I've only seen one other on the road ( clearly a press car with all the cameras and GoPros hanging off it) and a white Ioniq5 at a charge station......so where are they all??
This one actually looks like a car rather than a toy Nice review Paul!
Re the magnetic pad @6:20. It is a PHONE HOLDER. You can place a small, thin metal plate inside your phone case and your phone mounts straight to it. Most work with a magnet clipped to the air vent but this is way better. Awesome idea Hyundai! Great review too, thanks.
Cool!
Hi Paul
Great review!!! Looking forward to the Kia EV6 review.
Would love to know more about the whole EV charging points and what is best to use when at home. (Is it worth buying a charging station for the home)
Keep up the great reviews!!!
I've had mine for a few weeks now and its been all good so far. It certainly turns heads in the UK as there is nothing like it on our roads. Range is pretty decent as well and is very easy to drive and a lot better than you might think. Strangely pictures don't really don't give you any indication of its actual size. My only to gripes are the lack of the rear wiper which is nuts, plus the voice recognition is a joke, but then again its no worse then Volkswagen, Audio & BMW from my experience. You just get used to Alexa and compare everything to that. Overall very pleased so far.
How is the range sir? Any complain?
@@dedawn5890 Hitting around 250 miles in winter so pretty good.
One of the best car review channel. Details are top notch. Love your vids.
G'day Paul, maybe since lockdown ill see you down pt leo way again, still driving my old hilux to the surf, luv the channel, great review and interesting car.. keep up the good work!!
Another greta review Paul. Would love a video on the options for EV charging.
Hopefully Kia nail the EV6. Really looking forward to the GT
Me too!
Good to get an Australian review, thank Paul. I managed to get one of the initial shipment. Disappointed the heads up display didn't make it to Australia. I haven't had a test drive yet so looking forward to that before signing up for the purchase!
How was the noise level compared to your Tesla? I'm looking for a quiet comfortable cabin and reasonable performance.
Don't worry. the HUD isn't exactly great. You aren't missing much. If you want the most bang for the buck though, I'd suggest waiting for the upcoming Genesis GV60. It's more expensive than the Ioniq5, but all Korean reviewers agree that the value is simply unbelievable. Many Koreans are actually cancelling their Ioniq5/EV6 preorders to switch to GV60
Another wicked review thank you, the closest I’ve coming to driving an electric vehicle is a golf cart but I can’t wait for the future
Great review, you’ve covered a lot of info here thanks.Don’t get too hung up on the pram thing it’ll be a stroller before you know it, trust me I’ve been there.
Excellent styling. Most people will love it.
Thanks for the well presented review. Makes a change to listen to a car reviewer who isn’t trying to be a comedian.
Yes, a video on the different charging plugs and process will be great please.
Paul.. good review. I am sure there will be lot of buyers like me look for softly sprung suspension and don't want a sporty ride.
You always seem to overrate the sporty suspension.. its uncomfortable!!
There are plenty of cars with a soft ride and with body control. Tucson is a good example - great ride and doesn’t get unsettled with bumps. This is poorly tuned for Australian roads.
its same thing with lexus... i drive a rx350 and in city its suspension is so soft and all over the place... but it is the most comfortable ride... so loose some gain some
@@physics77guy We have an RX350 review coming up - same location as this and same speeds. Wasn't anywhere near as bad. It's definitely a soft ride, but it retains body control, whereas the Ioniq 5 falls apart as the speed increases.
Paul, your reviews are excellent particularly EVs.
Great review as always. Thanks for your feedback. I’m hoping the EV6 or the Mach E will score better.
great review thank you.....the whole place an order for a car I can't look at thing wasn't appealing but keen to see how the car goes over time and what other competition pops up over the next couple of years
Yeah that’s a good point. Early adopters snapped them up but just like you I’d want to see it and drive it first.
Saw this on the road on the weekend, I thought I was back in the 80's it looks awesome.
In the UK, ordered an ultimate rwd in digital teal green, just waiting for it to arrive, we don't get the big panoramic roof, but we do get the HUD, we test drove a few cars, and the Ioniq was the best fit for our family. Excellent review as well 👏
Yep I've ordered the same car in AWD, can't wait for it to arrive. Agreed it was the best overall choice for our family, including some far more expensive options which were disappointing.
Love it! I have since I first saw the prototype you showed a few months ago :)
Definitely interested in this. In a few years - thank you depreciation!
Already know this will be a good review
Litany in the intro 👏
My 2001 Audi S8 has a Solar panel sunroof. Hasn't been damaged by hail yet! It provides power to the cabin fan on hot days so the car is never got when I get in. It's a brilliant feature.
Nice!
Must say its really awesome seeing you putting some life into Lang-Lang
I love the place!
Nice review Paul. Just one thing with so many cars so stiffly sprung these days making for terrible ride comfort on our shit roads I feel a car like this isn't sport based so for me I would be happy with a comfort oriented ride. After all these things will spend most of their life commuting around major cities on family/work commuting ( on those shit roads ) so I would gather erring to comfort will please most potential customers certainly until adaptive dampers come standard. Cheers..
That’s fair enough. It’s just that you can still have soft suspension with body control. Tucson is a good example of a nice ride with great body control.
@@CarExpertAus Is KIA still using local experts to do suspension tune on Australian-delivered vehicles?
I have a 2020 Tuscon and I feel like it have a rocking chair for a drivers seat. Also if i have to swerve for something, god help me. No where near the refinement or handling like a VW. my 2011 Anarok 4wd is 100 times more comfortable and refined. Go figure
@@grahamtangey8680 Yes they are and they were spotted in Victoria doing testing on the EV6 a few months ago. I read somewhere however that COVID was an issue for the Hyundai Korea techs coming out here and getting stuck with quarrantine wasting time. Maybe they could use previous Oz calibration flavours to get a ballpark baseline calibration. Fingers crossed.
Yes please, would like to see an in depth explanation of the charging systems!
What a review and what a car, Well done Hyundai and Paul .
Thanks mate!
Great review, Paul.
It appears none of the car designers go to car parks, where you have to put the thing between two other vehicles. Instead they think the summon feature (slow) will appease drivers...
Did you have a chance to test out the app you would use as the owner of the car?
I noticed the EV6 has storage for the cargo blind, but not the I5. Bit odd, particularly given the need to eek out every cm of vertical cargo space.
Certainly a video about the EV charging. You have a good way of explaining things without the point being lost.
Brilliant review - both constructively critical and unbiased. I had to smile at your repeated comparisons with your Model 3 which I completely understand as I also have one. I've just ordered an Ioniq 5 here in the UK where there are more variants offered. Unlike you, I'm less enamoured of a sporty ride and actually find the Model 3 quite uncomfortable under some road conditions (especially rubbish UK road surfaces!) so a softer and more compliant ride is very welcome. I found the Kia EV6 rather claustrophobic inside but, then, it did have a black interior. Hope you find a successful replacement for your Tesla. Thanks again!
Yes actually a video on different chargers and charging standards in Australia, as well as their availability would be helpful... most videos out there focus on US market
Thanks for the great review Paul. I had registered for reserving a Ioniq5 on the appointed day however at the last minute I was informed no cars were allocated for my area code. Very disappointing to say the least to wait for such a long time to be left out at the last minute. However my interest in the car is still strong and I've been looking forward to a local road test review. The performance of the suspension on the atypical roads we have in Australia was an eye-opener as most overseas tests have only had good things to say about the ride. One thing I picked up on an overseas test was driving in rain the lack of a rear screen wiper was an issue, regardless of Hyundai's claim that aerodynamics cause air coming down through the rear spoiler to clear the screen. During the review I saw this didn't work even at high speed although the excellent rear view camera was able to be used as an alternative to the rear view mirror.
Me too Dennis! It annoyed me that they did not say right up front that our postcodes were 'ineligible. I went out and bought something else the next day.
That’s really disappointing to hear (about the postcode allocation). It actually rained quite heavily when we had the car and it wasn’t too big of a deal. The water tended to pool and then fall off the rear glass. The Jaguar I-Pace has the same setup.
@@jonathongellibrand3632 Why would they discriminate where you live? They should just be concerned with selling their cars.
A trick we used to use on back windows many years ago when cars didn't have rear wiper blades. First, clean the window. Next, cut a potato in half, rub the exposed area lightly over the window. You'll be surprised how water just runs off.
Repeat as desired
Great review again Paul. Comparison to your Tesla would be interesting. Really like this EV but for a 4 person family it sounds like the boot isn’t big enough which is a real shame as I thought this could be the family EV I would buy one day. We currently have a Kia Sorento that we love and works well for our family. Would be interested to see if our 4 suitcases would fit and how much room that left.
Just loose the cover and there is loads of room. My IX35 the cover is in the roof space, never been used
Just to give you an idea. The boot space in a Sorrento with the 3rd row folded down is at around 616 litres, its 527 in the Ioniq 5. But I think you get another 50 litres in the frunk.
So the size difference is smaller than you might think.
Just picked one up with black screen and interior its awesome and true to the review
Paul, Would love to see you do EV plugs introduction, keep up the good work! And also should we install home charging station or just charge it at the public ones?
I’m just a US person with an older Volt Plug In Electric Vehicle. I would recommend spending the money to put in a Level 2 charger. It’s wonderful having the car ready to go every morning. Your true EV would be able to charge fully overnight with level 2 but I think might only get partially charged overnight on like a dryer plug. We park in the driveway sometimes and just snake the cable out under the door.
This is just beautiful !
Cool review for a cool car. Cheers Paul.
It certainly did look a little rolly polly through those corners. Think I'll wait for the n version or the EV6..
Yes for the different charging cables please Paul!
Just ordered mine through my NHS lease scheme. Went for the most basic SE connect 58kWh. I know its not range topping with all the extras, but I have never owned a new car before (always pretty old used cars) and this is my first EV, not need max range for day to day either. Got it for three years and cant wait!
Thanks for the review, it great content,
I am waiting for my model 3 performance to be delivered in february but I was wondering if you think the loniq 5 or is a better car all around… I would really appreciate your
opinion. Thanks 🙏
Nup. The Tesla is the better car /-)
Love it love it. This and the EV6 are awesome
Finally a good EV for Australia that's not a Tesla.
Very nice look at this new EV and enjoyed the review. Little bit surprised that at 12:47 there is the suggestion that placing things like handbags unsecured on the floor in front of the centre console is a safe thing to do.
Currently a model 3 owner and ordered the Ioniq 5 full load!
Really liked the exterior, not so much the screens and the hole interior. Good review!!
Sliding drawer glovebox. Absolutely revolutionary. Sign me up for that bad boy.
Paul, can you outline what Hyundai are doing during the servicing of the Ioniq 5? Is it mainly a ‘vehicle check’, software updates? Brake fluid? Air filters etc? Interesting to understand and compare to Tesla ownership, given Tesla have no fixed servicing schedules (yes, I know Tesla’s require some servicing eventually), nor a legacy dealership network relying on return business.
I love the styling!
Hi Paul, a small correction about the Tesla Model 3 AC charging rate - it absolutely is capable of charging via 3 phase AC @ 11kW, but the ‘Universal Mobile Connector’ charger that comes with the car can only do single phase @ 7.2kW. If you use the Tesla Wall Connector or an appropriate public AC charger you can charge at 11kW.
The magnetic dash part is great. I have a metal plate behind my phone for magnet phone holders. But this solves that problem. Brilliant haha
great video mate, new subscriber here :)
The video on the different charging plugs would be cool
The fact that it’s not as hard on its suspension as something like a Tesla was a major selling point for me and hence why I ordered one. I already have 2 cars with stupidly hard suspension designed for the Nurburgring. I wanted something usable on typical (and terrible) UK roads.
Thanks for the review. I'd have really liked to have seen a comprehensive review/video for the Heads Up Display in action - they have been promoting a new 'augmented reality' system on there but providing almost no information on it apart from the odd screenshot. Coming from another car where I simply can't live without my HUD this is possibly the most important feature of them all for me.
No HUD for Oz 😢
@@CarExpertAus lul what? Ok - not even going to consider this car then - can't go back to a non HUD car ever again.
Are you positive there's no HUD for Australia? It can't be a climate issue, as Spain can easily get as hot as Australia, and HUD is available there.
Is the full suite of Highway Driver Assist available in Australia. The HUD is very much married to HDA package and that could potentially be the reason.
Is Project 45, the first edition release on the I.5 available in Australia? They released it in the U.K. which is also RHD. I also don't understand why they are not releasing the solar roof in an country that enjoys so much sun. I'm an owner, and yes the roof isn't going to provide that much extra range, but it will allow you to keep the car cooler on a hot day, and will make sure that your car will operate after an extended period of in-operation......say you've left the car in a long term car park at the airport while you're on vacation.
In a small market like Australia, with little direct competition, I can only surmise that if they are not releasing the Project 45 first edition with all the bells and whistles, then Hyundai are withholding these features for later release to maintain interest when there will be significant competition in the mid-price EV space.
Front number plate not being level trigged my ocd. White seats yikes! Keep up the awesome reviews mate!
Please take a look at the skoda superb sedan i love your review’s keep it up!
Will do!
Stunning car. I’d probably refer to the cubes as pixels though
Yes true.
I never considered Hyundai until this one. Great review!
Is there a 240v AC outlet inside the car? (in addition to the adapter you showed for the charging port) I remember seeing some international variants where there was a an AC outlet in the passenger seats.
One of the best looking ev cars out
Agree!
Interesting comments on performance I had a i30 Fastback N which had a 0 to 100 klm/hr time of say 6.0 seconds. Yes you needed to change gear in a manual deep into the 90 plus klm/hr range that hurt the time. But, hang on a time of 5.3 something is really hauling.
Plus what is the quality of your Tesla like? Not a loaded question I know the bad press but have no experience myself.
Nice review. Did I miss something, where is the spare wheel and is it full sized?
No spare. Just a tyre repair kit.
You are always my go-to guy for an objective review Paul! I pre-registered to go on the purchase list and then found out that they are not selling cars to anyone more than 10 km or so from one of their 'curated' dealers. I am really annoyed at Hyundai for not telling me this in March when I put my name down. I would not have bothered. If you look at their FaceBook page you will see many unhappy would-be customers. The whole launch day was an unmitigated disaster.
So here in Newcastle (population nudging half a million people) it's just not going to happen for us regional people until they increase their dealer network for electric cars. You cannot order this from Hyundai either, you can just register your interest. Given there were 270 cars in the initial allocation, with > 12,000 registrations, and the next shipment not due to mid-next year, good luck getting one!
We went the next day and ordered an iX 50 BMW which has a build slot of week one 2022. Yes, it is a lot more expensive I know, and not comparable. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder of course but at least you are not going to mistake it for anything else! Thanks again for your great reviews - keep up the good work!
Wow. That’s crazy - I’m sorry to hear you had such a bad experience. And what a bizarre policy to not let people further away order. Congrats on the new BMW order - I’m looking forward to driving one!
@@CarExpertAus yes it is! Especially when they knew my postcode back in March! And I could have moved in the meantime! Keep up the great work!
Do you pay Vinfast to use the Lang Lang Proving Ground? Or is CarExpert part of Vinfast? Just curious what the go is. Good to seen Lang Lang still being used how it should be!
Nice review Paul. Brilliant as always. The car is the new modern retro and I love it. May make Tesla run for the money. The only downside is the network for charging the Ionic 5. I believe Tesla has sorted that for non-Tesla owners for a fee (Premium).
America has crap charging outside of the coasts - Tesla’s the only charging network with even close to workable distance between. Especially trying to make our American pilgrimage to the national parks of Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Montano, etc! Which is the only reason I want a nice, new, comfortable car. Not good for those of us who won’t give Elon our money.
hey mate, def do even a short video on the ac dc charging differences. I have never used EV and is a bit apprehensive to step in. But i guess in 10 or 15 years time, this is probably we all will have to live with.
Your channel should be way more popular than it is
I've placed an order in the UK. Matte Grey and Black interior. Ultimate AWD model with tech pack and eco pack. So excited but need to wait until end of January! Coming out of an M2 competition.
Thanks for the review but really would like to know about the 58kw model which is more realistically equal to a model 3 from a price point perspective.
Still a bit too expensive for most but they are getting there. Would love to own this one day.
this car is not for most...
@@norbertmachaj6127 It's not great value compared to the model 3
@@lamborghini0610 I have a different opinion, it is a great value compering to all Teslas, it is cheaper, it looks great, it is big inside, it charges faster than Teslas on 350 kW chargers and it comes from the car producer with already well established service network. I am a big fan of Elon and Tesla but this car is very good. I was testing it yesterday and I am impressed. By the way I am a tall person, 193cm.
@@lamborghini0610 lol sure the 3 looks boring and cheap. Good tech sure but the stripped out interior and the cheapest and ugliest steering wheel ever not my liking.
Yes paul a video for those plugs
Will do!
@@CarExpertAus also explain charging curves..people assume you will get 250kw for a charge.. no upto a percentage. Also explain why you would probably not charge beyond 80%
Nice review Paul. This will make a nice alternative to the Tesla model Y which I’m holding out for. One thing that concerns me about the Tesla is the report of a bone hard ride, where is this seems to be the opposite
Hey, have you driven the Mini Cooper S Electric or maybe reviewed it ?
Hey Paul, with the "auto steering" you say you're not a fan of the Hyundai/Kia system? But when you press the button, I've found it easily the best. If you don't turn it on each drive it bounces between the lanes as you describe, but that's not the "lane follow", it's just the lane keep assist.
Why don't you like it?
I like the car all round from driver comments around the world, I also like blue colour it certainly makes the car stand out in the sunshine, the interior is fabulous, the performance feels great even though I have not been in one, I do hope it is available in the near future for more Australians as we come toward the Ev world, cheers.
I love the vehicle to load function, just wondering if it will transfer to vehicle to home?
I don’t think so - unless you can run your home off a 15A plug. 3.6kW may not be enough.
When you showed the Tesla images at the beginning, they looked so bland in terms of design after looking at the Ioniq
True!
@@CarExpertAus when are you going to review a Tesla and other electric cars?
unfortunately designs like this will age very fast.
@@pummyy You are not wrong. Bland designs do stick around for a lot longer.
Disappointed in Hyundai Australia not allowing pre-orders. I went to multiple dealers asking when it's coming, what the price was, what models would be available. All I got were clumsy marketing emails and a "calendar reminder" to login to Hyundai Australia's website on the 12th of October. I couldn't even display the website on that day. Thank you for testing the suspension, looks like they need local tuning. Hopefully the next shipment in 2022 has cars more suited to our roads.
Completely love it.
The cube lights remind me of an 80/90s video game.
Yes!
Like the watch Paul
Just placed an order after for the AWD version - Having used 2 generations of Ioniq cars (AE3 and 3) and 2 x Konas (2019 and 2021) - my thoughts are that I am trading off the range to performance with this one but sincerely hope it doesn't disappoint me
sat in this thing yesterday, the size is definitely deceiving, much larger in real life. according to the dealer they are all sold out in Oz, next orders will be taken in 2022, delivery expected in 2023
The info on industry media from the official Hyundai Australia ZOOM press event was that of the initial order of 400 units, 240 were made available in the first online release and the remainder will happen early in the new year. No info released about subsequent batches but you can bet the local execs at Hyundai will be working the Comms hard to get more stock asap based on the enthusiasm shown and trying to soak up demand before the EV6 steals some of the potential buyers.
U get a moderately sized hatchback almost going suv size, most original front and rear lights, sharp detailing around the wheels and the wheels themselves, and on top of that a slick spoiler. Idk why but they seem to nail the design this time. Sure Hyundai has been notoriously known for stealing a bunch of exterior part designs from different manufacturers, but this truly stands out among the evs
Love the design.
I ordered mine in July, due to be delivered somewhere around Xmas. Went all-in as well.. AWD, big battery, full trim (except the 1k$ for the massage seats), and a trailer hitch. Had to take it in white and have it foliated metallic blue, since Hyundai doesn't offer any bright colors anymore.
I had cross-tested it against the BMW iX3, Ford Mustang MachE and Skoda Enyaq, and the Ioniq5 won by a league.. there's just no way to get that power and those features at that price anywhere else, and as an 80s kid, I love that retro pixelated design.
Looks great
Awesome go camping run your gear of it, so um how do you charge it when it goes flat?
Very impactical
I wonder how expensive that front end would be to fix after a collision. So many lights and moving parts.
Wonder if the kia version would be any different dynamically
I hope so!
