    This is the ShortCircuit car video that has me convinced you’re doing it right. Alex, your coverage is like a breath of fresh air. I really appreciate your dedication to showing hvac and media controls. Love Andy’s perspectives too, really good back and forth you had there. I was super impressed with how you’ve described, demonstrated, and explained the suspension issue…well done. Finally, I think what made this video click for me was how well you contrasted it with the ev6 and model y. You’re starting to have this library of car experiences you can point people to as they consider their options. Love this concept, love your execution, please keep this up!

It has also held up perfectly in the 6 years I've had it, and the design did too. Love it!
    Sad to see that they went the touch route on this one, the climate control dials and buttons on the Tucson are G R E A T. I'll never stop mentioning it lol. They clearly they know how to do UX right, so... Ugh
    The steering is the same thing on the Tucson though. It feels very light and at the same time weirdly heavy, after long trips my arms are tired!

A single solid yellow is legal to pass on, but with extreme caution (Almost to the point to treat it like you shouldn't cross which is where confusion comes from). Dashed single yellow allows for passing whenever is safe. While Double Yellows is no passing at all.
      Edit: googled it myself and to quote Attorney Tom "It Depends". Newfoundland it IS illegal to cross over a solid yellow to pass. However in BC where this was filmed, it's legal. Only Nova Scotia is explicit about solid yellow passing being legal, and says "Only on highways".

    Just a slight addendum about the non-Tesla high-kilowatt level 3 charger availability situation: it might currently suck in BC, but at least in the eastern US, it's apparently fairly decent and continuing to improve. Robert Dunn and Alec Watson (of YT channels Aging Wheels and Technology Connections, respectively) literally just did a collab within the past couple of weeks to drive a 1200-mile road trip from Alec's home base in the Chicagoland area to somewhere in Florida in Alec's new Ioniq 5, using Electrify America's network:
    ruclips.net/video/1Vm_ASm2zfs/видео.html
    TL;DR: depending where you are in North America and where you need to go, it is indeed possible to not have (many) issues finding non-Tesla high-kilowatt level 3 charging stations.

They recently opened them up here (NL) for other brands as well (which works great on even my ancient 63KW charging Ioniq). In return, shopping a new car (ordered an Ioniq 5), I was pleasantly surprised to see that Tesla also includes non-Tesla "superchargers" (like Fastned, Ionity, Shell Recharge, and so on) in their trip planning list. It's truely both ways here. In part due to regulation mandating Tesla to use CCS. Compared to the Ioniq they are slow chargers though (capping at "only" 170kW -- you can charge a non-tesla faster at a tesla charger than a tesla now)

    The differences between the SEL and Limited are not significant imo. The main things the Limited has over the SEL is:
    - Heads up display
    - Sound system (from reviews I heard its not that great or sounds the same)
    - Ventilated Seats (the main one I care about)
    - V2L in the rear seats
    - Memory Seats (Driver is memory but passenger is manual in SEL)
    - Sunroof
    - Can move Center Console forward and back
    - Park Assist
    - 20 inch wheels
    Main things I'd want are the HUD and ventilated seats which I wish were an option but other than that the SEL is the best choice. Just got the I5 SEL in Shooting Star and my wife and I love it. Hope this helps!

    I drove both the Ioniq 5 and EV6 a couple months ago. First, both are really great cars. In my opinion the EV6 is definitely more driver focused though, with a nicer interior and better handling and honestly just more fun. The way the screens curve towards you is so nice and not actually all that common. In the end I've opted for the EV6 GT-line and should be picking it up in a few weeks!

    Problem with Hyundai and Kia charging is, as of now, there are issues with thermal management (thermal throttling and, more commonly, “cold-gating”) which greatly decreases kW at fast chargers. Got to hand it to Tesla there (and Polestar and Lucid, maybe a few others) with their preconditioning before fast chargers. It’s fantastic on my Y, and fully automatic with the built in trip planner.

      European models got preconditioning via an update a few months ago, and all '23 models in US and Canada will have it, so they are making the change. Only AWD models in the US came with the heat pump and we are hoping that they enable preconditioning for us as well :/ They did just enable widescreen Android Auto via update a week ago, so they are trying to support us early adopters.

    Great video Alex, and I love that LTT has started with EV reviews. However, i'm a big tech and car nerd, so I would have loved to se a much more detailed review of the car, that other reviewers often forget. Since I live in Norway where it is cold, which models have a heat pump? How does the prewarming before charging work? What is the maintenance and service cost? What is the expected lifetime of the battery? How long are the warranty and battery warranty? How is the anti rust treatment? How is the pricing and availability for parts? And the last and most important question, is it possible to repair and maintain the Ioniq 5 yourself? Right to repair is important on cars too! This is because cars get used, cars break, cars gets old and all cars need regular care and maintenance.

    • @richie_k
      @richie_k 2 года назад +4

      Hello to beautiful Norway from Austria! Having compared a lot of EV options over the last years, I learnt that some of the things you are mentioning can be very different in local markets due to different trims and price targets. So even I really second your thoughts, this is probably making it hard to fit in a review with international viewers - especially impacting the elephant in the room here which is the heat pump that might be omitted with EVs in warmer markets for cost savings. Heck, even when I compared some Hyundai/Kia specs of trims sold in either Germany or Austria, there were differences even though everyone would expect them to be essentially the same market. And with this video I was kinda shocked that even the second to highest Canada trim of the Ioiniq 5 does not seem have the front lightbar as standard, opposing to the Austrian spec where only the lowest trim doesn't have it. It's crazy how different the essentially same car can be in another part of the world.

    Not sure if this is the cause of the trunk moisture issue, but many vehicles have little rubber grommets behind the taillights where the wiring and whatnot gets fed into the body of the car to prevent water intrusion. Sometimes, these grommets either fall out from vibration and harsh bumps, or degrade over time (which shouldn't be the case with a brand new car).

      BEVs are great, assuming you can charge at home, you'll never know how dumb going to a gas station seems until you experience it. Take you max normal daily driving distance and multiply by 1.6 and choose a vehicle with equal to or more range than that for no charging daily trips and healthy battery practices. Niro is not purpose built EV, I don't think highly of those. Personally not interested in Hybrid (more complex, more to break and maintain) Demand is high, so are prices. I recommend watching Sandy Munro for quality assessment. My choices for currently available entry level BEV:
      1 Tesla Model 3/Y
      2 Kia EV6
      3 Mach E
      4 Ioniq 5

    The big difference between this and any Tesla down here in the states is that Tesla no longer qualifies for a federal tax rebate ($7,500 USD). That brings the price of the I5 down quite a bit.

    drove the audi q4 last week. loved it. my grandma said it was the best car she ever drove in. she compared it to our other cars like the Benz and Jaguar and was happier with it.
    it ain't perfect, but i really enjoyed it. it was on sale in germany for 34k and that is a steal ngl .

    As if we needed more confirmation of how nice Canadians are, it turns out they blink their lights at you to warn you about traffic controls. I love that.

    Never even knew anything about these until I saw one on the road locally a few weeks back. The headlights immediately caught my attention, and when I saw it again later that day, the tail lights also looked great. I absolutely love the individual squares that make up the lens. Then I saw it: "I O N I Q 5" I had to do a double-take. Hyundai? With a genuinely nice looking car? Am I dreaming? If I were in the market for a nice BEV, this would be near the top of my list (especially if Hyundai irons out some of the QOL and charging issues I've read about).

    That "Nice" comment when the speedometer hits 69 really got me. 11:17

    We've been buying and driving Hyundai's since 2002, the progression of quality for the price has kept us with them since. We are now on our 3rd one and we plan on continuing to purchase them...

    5:02 in my custom built Toyota land cruiser, I didn't put a center console in. It's great. I can fit a backpack or cooler there easily. You may ask what I do with all of my junk then? I simply don't have it!

    I would absolutely love to get an Ioniq 5. My father and I both really like the car and both of us want to get an all electric vehicle. Both of us are a little hesitant to get a tesla regarding their security with updating the car and a few other things related to the company. I cannot see myself ever wanting a car bad enough to pay the local 15K markup for the car. I really want to swap over to EV and make this my first EV, but the mark up is absurd. Maybe a tesla isn't all that bad. Hopefully the EV market can stop being like the GPU market, but I do not see that happening anytime soon.

    Really glad you guys included the comment about the US rebates, I think it makes a big difference for those considering an EV in the US right now. It’s up to $10k off which can make a car go from out of someone’s price range to definitely considerable in the long run.
