Was hoping the profile and ground clearance was more IS500 and less Crown "Sedan". More Ioniq6 than Ioniq5. Or I guess closer to the Arteon than the taos to be more appropriate.
(60.5" height is the mid point between the Arteons' 56.8" and the Taos' 64.4/64.6". Ground clearance of 5.9" is closer to the Taos' 6.4" than the Arteons' 5.1. Sounds like splitting hairs but it shows)

Totally agree. I get that this is a bi-product of packing with the skateboard design, but man is it a dealbreaker for me.
An alternative would be placing it in a large center tunnel, but that would have a large impact on interior space. Hopefully, smaller solid-state batteries will change this in the future.
All of the BEV cars, with the exception of the Model 3/S and Lucid seem to have these jacked up proportions (ex Polestar 2).
I imagine that having a lower ride height is important to those of us who still choose a car over a Crossover. This car is going to flop unless it gains massive traction in China.

I need my Phaeton back

Guess you work with some amazing cars because for the normal folk, 6.5s to 60mph is considered pretty fast.

I predict Volkswagen will report a 6 billion loss in EV sales in the next 5 years
