Just a quick note to endorse Corbin‘s review as spot on, and my basis for saying that is I have an exact same model (except mine’s silver) on the same lease. My only quibble with the review is that Corbin dedicated just one sentence to a “pro” that deserves a whole paragraph: This car is a road beast!! I would choose the SE RWD again on that quality alone. It’s great for highway trips with long range, quick DC charging, quiet & comfortable cabin and excellent stablity. That combination is golden for long trips. On the “con” side, I have even more quibbles than Corbin about little minor things. But they are so unimportant compared to the fundamental performance and value of the car that I’m not gonna even mention them.
I have a 24 Ioniq 6 limited AWD since January. I do love mine. The look, the material, the tech, and the remote features. The Bluelink is fantastic. But…the door materials are cheap and easily to scuff up, small trunk, Bose sound isn’t great at all and I wish the key fob was sturdier. I like that it’s light. But man do I really have to push down those buttons. I give the car an 8/10 which is still solid.
Oh and that reflection. I was just thinking about that 2 days ago. It is a bit more reflection than I’ve had before. Wonder why that is.
It seems the move would be to buy the limited trim, & then buy the smaller wheels (either from dealer or aftermarket) for range & comfort. Why doesn’t Hyundai offer the 18” wheels on the limited trim?!?
exactly what I was thinking
@@pauljuntunen3451 in Finland they do (possible to option smaller wheels in with the highest trim) - not sure why stateside resellers do not allow that.
@@tommikarkas8250 Kiitos, Tommi. Hyundai’s marketing decisions in the US are mysterious to me.
I wonder whether better wheel covers for the 20” wheels could be supplied by an aftermarket vendor to bring the limited trim’s range a little bit higher. Maybe 3D scanning the 18” wheel covers and building an extended diameter model to fit the rims would work, and then making the product from molds.
Agreed. I ❤ my 2024 Ioniq6. 6months. 4500 miles. SE trim. AWD.
I have a 2024 SE AWD. Just did a road trip (700+ miles) and it was a dream.
I took delivery of my Ioniq 6 SE with 18” wheels and AWD two weeks ago - it’s almost impossible to get the RWD extended range model. Very few are allocated. You have to be lucky to catch one “in transit.” My dealer gave me a discount off MSRP to consider AWD - not a bad option to have here in MA. The smaller wheels are key in giving you well over 300 miles of range in ECO and NORMAL. In those modes, you are usually only using the rear motors.SPORT engages the front motors, and you can feel a big difference immediately. I agree with all your positive comments. What I like best: this car hugs the road, wet or dry, like nothing I’ve ever driven. It’s great fun on MA’s twisty local roads. Only disappointment: mediocre sound system. Love your videos! UPDATE: getting 350 miles of range consistently with Normal mode!😮
This has got to be one of the best looking cars out now. Just so much calls back to cars from years ago
Really loving my Comma3X to, purchased it after watching your review , definitely took my GV60P SCC to new levels
No issues with my 12V battery either, after 15 months. Maybe I’m lucky so far! And I’ve never had water or mold in the cabin air filter. I recently replaced that filter, and I discovered that a mouse had torn it into little shreds to make a cozy nest! I hadn’t particularly noticed reduced airflow, but after I replaced it, the ventilation clearly blows a lot better.
This car is very nice but my question to you is, how did you settle for this trim? I have the 23 Sel IoinQ 5 and every so often I get in my feels about not getting the top trim but it doesn't last long because the SEL is no slouch. You know you are a top trim guy and you got this for 2 solid years. You'll survive but it's likely to sting a bit. :)
I have the Ioniq 6 SE AWD with 18 inch wheels. I live in NW NJ which is a zone 4-5 climate. I have put 32000 miles on it in 16 months-April 2023-August 2024. The computer says I am averaging 4.8 miles per kwh. After 12 months (only one summer) it was 4.7 miles per kwh. I drive mostly in eco mode (RWD) so the range is close to what I would get in the RWD model. With the 77 kwh battery that means 4.7X77= 361 miles range. I drive reasonably-62-65 mph on highways and use the great seat heaters most of the time instead of blasting the cabin heat. I have had no issues with it-charging mostly at home at 24 Amps. I occasionally use fast DC Charging and again it was fine. This is a fantastic car-highly recommend.
Just got over the one year hump with my Limited AWD i6 and have loved it. Got the LinerX mats for the New England winters and they held up really well. Only issues I have with it is the amount of updates that require going to the dealership to complete and for some reason the taillight strip on top and the middle of the trunk have de laminated/cracked. Luckily my dealer is replacing it under warranty. Other than those minor things, I love this car and how cheap it is to fuel up.
We’ve had a base model Ioniq 5 AWD for two and a half years. We have yet to regret not getting the higher cost trims. It’s easy to not miss something you never had.
I was at 5k miles by the time I got to 3 months 😂 I love the Ioniq 6 as my daily driver. 1st EV and Hyundai. If you put the sunvisor down, it blocks the silver reflection. They need to make a black rubber bumper
I am just over three months with my SE AWD 6. It's at 6,200 miles now. Your review was consistent with my experience. This has become our road trip car even though it is not equipped like our AWD LTD 5 (but I really miss the heads up display!). The range at highway speed is amazing. My only complaint is that my right knee rests on the center console which I find uncomfortable after a while.
Living in the uk… I’m finding it hard to find a reliable review on this car… and honestly haven’t seen many on the road… however the reviews and comments I’ve experienced is a positive one to say the least!!! So I’ve ordered one am my next company car, unfortunately I’ve got to wait till the end of January 2025…
I hope I’m not going to be disappointed😂 thank you for the insight!
About the auto dimming rearview mirror, you can swap out an OEM Kia/Hyundai HomeLink auto-dimming mirror pretty easily and it will look fully OEM. I upgraded the rearview mirror in my Grandpa's EV6 Wind to one with HomeLink and it was super easy. I'll have another for sale here pretty soon.
The Ioniq 5 needs some 18" wheel options, too.
Looking at picking up this model which is selling brand new for $30k a few cities over. Just a bit of trepidation about charging since I live in an apartment in a smaller city, though I’m not opposed to paying a bit extra for the fast charging. Love hearing your experiences and I’m seriously considering it!
Just had the 9B5 update on my 2023 Ioniq 5 Ltd. Overheating problem solved.
I have watched alot of EV reviews. Although I am still unsatisfied on the question of "How efficient is the thermal management of EVs?" As we all know the number one enemy of EV batteries is "HEAT". All videos I have watched regarding battery thermal management, their main highlight is cold temperature effecting range and the like. How about countries with tropical or hot climate areas? We also want to know the other side of the coin. Comparing it to "gaming PC's". We want to know the exact data/numbers of the temperature, to know whether or not the preferred battery temperature is being maintained or not. Since the correlation of heat and battery degradation is stronger in high temperatures. The topic regarding with battery thermal management in tropical/hot climate/summer time is not being tackled much or just being ignored. I hope you make a new video regarding the efficiency of thermal management in hot weather. Thanks!
The dashboard reflection drives me crazy
I don’t know where you came up with the 376 mile range. Based on your history of 4.1 miles/ kilowatt hour over 1146 miles you would get about 303 miles on a full charge. Which is about what what I get on my ioniq5 all-wheel-drive in mixed driving. But you’re definitely doing better at high-speed highway driving than my car does. Thanks for another one of your typically good reviews. You do a fantastic job and you’re very helpful. One question what happened to the results of your reliability survey that you were taking a while back? If you posted it, I haven’t caught it yet.
That’s based on the last week of driving, not the past 1200 miles. We’re mostly driving under 45 mph these days so the range estimation is higher due to that. The results are coming. I haven’t had time to make that video and it’ll likely be a few more weeks as I’m about to move
I have an Ioniq 6 SEL AWD. Keyfob is hideous. If they had gone with a sturdier black material, it wouldn't be so bad. I'm so glad you pointed out the silver trim reflection on the interior windshield. It's like the Hyundai design engineers never thought to drive the car in sunlight (or they just didn't care). Other than those 2 things, the Ioniq 6 is a fantastic "sporty" sedan.
Yeah using silver trim was a poor decision
+1 on silver trim reflection. It’s really bad. My only real complaint. Would be so awesome if someone invented a black trim cover for it or something to prevent reflection.
@@boiler_kh Could use a dark paint marker the color of your choosing and a steady hand.
@@jasonwhitley8605 I did that on an aftermarket GPS in my work van, it had silver trim which caused an annoying reflection but a black marker fixed it.
Someone at work (I clean rental cars) didn't like the egg key fob until I turned it sideways and showed them the Hyunai logo and then they were like WHOAAA
I really like the tint it looks good how dark did you go in regards to the tint great lease deal thank you for the update 👍
I believe it’s 25%
I look at the lower front ‘bumper’ on that car and expect that the tiniest impact from a curb or snow bank would result in thousands of dollars of damage.
Because of the trunk, it's not for me.... I hope they( Hyundai ) like the classic Ioniq, make a hatchback or a station! Please 🙏 consider 🎉!
I'm guessing the I-pedal is weaker in the RWD version given only one motor used for regen. I feel that i-pedal slows fairly quickly in the AWD I have; use it all the time in the city
Any idea on when Hyundai will get supercharger access?
Edit: nvm, bummer you can't use the Comma 3X. That thing is amazing.
That plastic cover comes off the emeregency key all the time as well
Wearing polarized sunglasses will help reduce the reflection of the dash on the windshield.
Thanks for your review.
Nut I have a question ...for your next video....
Why do you use white backgtound on the screens.
I find that to much light in my eyes compared to the black background (I drive the ioniq 5 from 2021)
Next: That reflecting line from the top of those screens would drive me craxy..
If I had my own ioniq 6 car (not lease) I would paint that matt black or would tape it with maybe a black scotch tape (also matt coloured)
Also other reflection in the front window....May be I would change color to less reflecting .
(My ioniq 5 has a black interieur specially choden to reduce reflections as much as possible)
I kinda laughed a bit at the "this would be a great spot for a HUD", since that's exactly where mine is :p I still don't understand why you guys don't get the HUD option.
I thought your dash showed 4.7 m/kwh but i checked again it was 4.1. Is that hard to accomplish in the Ioniq 6? I hit 4.2 on my Ioniq 5 yesterday. Took a picture I couldn’t believe it.
that 109m/kwh xD bro just rolled down a hill in neutral with the windows down
Like the color. Choices on Ionic 5 (other than "N") are dull or ugly.
That windshield reflection is kind of a problem. Hmm.
I got the same car in the same color!
Level 0 regen is the most efficient? I have heard so many conflicting things about regen level, but this is the first time I've heard that.
@afaigenblat coasting always going to be more efficient
There is no real coasting. Rear motor is always connected and generating (or pulling) energy. So don‘t worry about regen levels, just drive the way you like. With one exemption. I-Pedal uses both motors in EGMP AWD cars, which is a pity. So don‘t use i-Pedal in AWD cars.
I’m confused about the model trim level you have. You say it’s RWD only, but my understanding is that the “frunk tray” is deeper for that trim level because there’s no forward motor drive. Other reviews show a deeper bin, basically. Can you clarify because the choice here is interesting to me before I buy.
RWD in US doesn’t get the larger front trunk
@@TheIoniqGuy Got it. I found that the review I saw was in the EU so it makes sense. Someone speculated it had to do with NHTSA regulations regarding inside hatch escape latches.
PS sorry for the late reply; my RUclips notifications are very muted for some reason.
What seems odd to me is that steering wheel buttons are on the opposite side of the Ioniq 5. Weird. Dunno why. I'd be pushing wrong buttons switching between the two cars!
It was a hassle at first and it still catches me up on occasion but I've gotten used to it for the most part. All Hyundai/Kia vehicles going forward have adopted the Ioniq 6 layout at this point. They really needed to standardize it.
You have rear wheel drive only and the small frunk?!?! Why? Here the rear wheel drive version has a huge frunk and the AWD has the small one because the engine is there.
Drop by anytime, and I'll get that scratch out.
You said it's a rear wheel drive model but the smaller frunk is on the all wheel drive model because of the motor up front. The rear wheel drive should have a bigger frunk. I own a real wheel drive and I have the bigger frunk, granted mine is european trim so I wonder if that is an american trim thing, which makes no sense really. Why would they not fit the bigger frunk if there was no motor in the front? My guess is that your car is actually an awd.
US regulations require an escape button based on volume and Hyundai apparently didn’t want to integrate one so RWD has a small front trunk here
@@TheIoniqGuy Thanks for the info. So shame on Hyundai really for not even trying.
At those lease prices Hyundai is virtually giving the cars away in the USA. They must be losing huge amounts of $ per car.
Did you set the regen to max in the settings?
We have a hardwired level 2 chargepoint home flex and it died after a power outage durin last weeks storm. have you heard of that happening before?
I haven't heard of that happening but if there was a power surge and you don't have a whole home surge protector the internals could likely get fried in that event.
6:00 Your key fob. The key is inside my key fob on the Ioniq6 so just put that extra key in your Safe.
Thanks. But when are we going to get the upgrade that adds wireless Android Auto? Was that a hoax?
That will only be possible with the new entertainment system that comes with the facelift in 25.
@@svengaefgen5909 So it was a hoax, according to you. What's your source?
It was never stated by any official source that any of these cars will be getting it via update. All of that has been pure speculation.
@@TheIoniqGuy The Hyundai dealer who sold me the car told me that, but admitted that he wasn't confident. Since the car already does Bluetooth, it isn't too much of a stretch to think they could do it with an update.
@@PaulTopping1 TomTom, the Hyundai GPS system provider, has a clause that on any infotainment screen over 6 inches wireless CarPlay and Android Auto is not made available.
Nice car, but I would take new model 3 over this, to get that range and performance in Hyundai you have to spend over $53k, you can get model 3 performance for this. The cheaper versions aren't good, in my opinion
But then you have to drive a Tesla 🤮 no car play, garbage interior, no buttons. No thanks
@@nothingtoseehere93 car . isn't needed .it has everything you need. And interior is awesome.
Not so interested in a discussions of the shortcomings of a SE model. It has tons of shortcomings, because it isn’t a Limited.
why not? the competition is things like a polestar 2 or a model 3 which are well equipped at their base trim.
I just dont like the way the back end looks. Reminds me of a dog hunched over to go poop.
Why do the American rwd versions still have the small frunk?
It would need a mechanism to be opened from the inside, if it were bigger.
@@svengaefgen5909 do you mean like auto opening like a electric boot?
@@Damadchef it's a kid safety regulation. If it's above a certain size, manufacturers have to add an internal latch so that kids can't get stuck in it.
@@tylerharvey7923 ah ok.... I understand now thanks 👍 we have a 45L drunk on the rwd
I live in ct. is it good in snow and dirt roads
I can’t speak from experience because I haven’t driven it in either of those situations
Haven’t driven my AWD SE in snow yet, but it grips the road superbly in wet and dry conditions in all modes. Love driving it on twisty back roads here in MA! You’ll feel rough surface roads but it’s stable, not bouncy.
What's a comma 3x?
An advanced level two driving device
You BETTER NOT have any 12v issues at 4 months. You should have any for 3 years. If you do, then Hyundai failed miserably.
My 2017 Chevy Bolt 12V battery lasted 5.5 years. It was replaced before a long winter trip just to be safe.
I applaud Hyundai’s effort s, that’s one fugly car, especially the lower rear end.
I got mine and its 220@month
