Excellent detail and I enjoyed your review thanks and just to note reviews don’t seem to notice how intrusive these “bongs” actually are in these new EV’s. I bought one of these cars six months ago and the bongs never stop…it constantly bongs if you put on/off the cruise control, open the door while charging, one km over the speed limit, move into a different speed limit zone, also you have to keep moving the steering wheel or it constantly warns you to put your hands back on the steering wheel by “bonging”. On most trips it warns you to “take a break” if the car wheels go near the roads studs! There appears to be an oppression with bongs!
This was a very good and in depth review of the Ioniq 6. I own a First Edition, and I love the car, after 5600 km, even more. The spacious interior, the excellent drive quality, the safety features, HUD and 3D view make it a pleasure to drive. Here in Germany, with a dense grid of HPCs, the fast charging (up 243 kW) is a real advantage. The trunk is controlled by proximity of the key fob, not a sensor under the rear of the car.
I now have over 6,000 kms on my AWD Ioniq 6 in Australia. Its better than I expected, quiet, smooth powerful, good range, efficient, easy to drive with lots of practical and usable features. Its great in both cold and hot weather. Easy to park with 3d display. Rear view cameras are good high res and more sensitive at night. I would like it to remember the last drive settings though.
So many different things in the UK version compared to US. I don’t have a slide out glove box. We stand behind our trunk for 3 secs it’ll unlock not swipe a foot.
I wonder how many yearn for the past of simplicity rather than the need for the equivalent of night school knowledge. Do they make the driver’s manual of light weight materials ?. Death by features…..?.
Hi there David 👋 I'm sure your point resonates with many! The increasing complexity of modern vehicles with advanced features can be a lot to take in. It's a delicate balance between innovation and simplicity.
Thank God, we are back to your tried and tested reviewers and their tried and tested format. Hurrah!!
Boomers rule ✅

Phew! Resubscribed 😊

Base Model 3 RWD from Shanghai is a better buy BUT only if it has STALKS …….however, it might already be too late.
Integrated drive shafts and wheel bearings that deliver STABILITY CONTROL…….right ?.
