This political pandering is a turn off

Click and Clack, I love it!

Glad to see you starting a podcast.

Good for you two! Forgive the brag, but I've got you beat. Been driving on electricity for 14 years now. All powered with sunshine from my roof!

Wish the gv70 electrified got the new larger bat.

You want a dealer to show things about and electric car? What kind of dilusional world are you living in? These are middlemen interested in only one thing -- to get the most money out of you as they can. A vehicle that requires very little to no service is not what they want to sell you. The more confused and less informed that you, the better for them, in that you don't want to get another one.

If it changes the push for EV's then great! The biggest scam of the decade is EV's,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I don’t understand how someone can recommend a 24 over a 25. The software upgrade (big deal) and usb ports alone are reasons to choose the newer vehicle. As a very happy 5N owner, I appreciate these upgrades immensely (N driving differences aside). Wireless carplay, etc.

Sorry, what app are they using?

I have a Chevy bolt and a looking into the Ioniq 5 but I replace my tires very often on my Bolt. Which Ioniq model is easier on tires? I rarely drive in the snow but would consider AWD if it will save on tires.

You had the XRT listed with a ground clearance of 8 inches, but I think it’s 7. I only noticed because I’d like it to be 8 because that’s what I have on my current car and I like it. The I5 sits a little low for me, but I figure I’ll get used to it.

A key reason to wait for the 2025 is that the dash is now harmonious with other Hyundai cars such as the new Santa Fe. We have one and I would not want the old model as it is opposite to that car. Also it has real physical buttons for climate seats/wheel now. It seems small but that was enough for me to wait.

Don’t thank Musk for opening up the network. It was done in order for Tesla to qualify for billions in NEVI funding. And your Ioniq 5 will get ~100kw there, compared to 240+ at a 350.

Musk's comment about the tax credit going away is because he knows that Tesla is the only company that manufacture EV's at a profit without the federal government stepping in and giving away taxpayer money to subsidize the rest of the manufacturers EV's high sticker price. I think you're wrong about EV's going up after Jan 20th. Tesla has demonstrated that they can compete and have dropped prices of their vehicles in order to hit higher volumes but still maintain a good profit margin. They will do that after January 20th too. The rest of the car industry better decide if they want to stay in the EV business and change their business model in order to compete by being more vertically integrated/ in-house manufacturing.

Nice upgrade on the 2025!!👍🏽 I do luv my 2023 Hyundai ionic and performance. But through Hyundai I got a good deal on the 2023 ionic 5 dual motor which i upgraded from the 2020 Santa Fe turbo. The difference between the 2 I notice is that the Hyundai ionic 5 doesn’t require oil changes but very quick on acceleration but the Santa Fe was more responsive on rough roads then my ionic 5 which skips and looses traction if you hit a bump or pothole in roadways at higher speeds not sure why🤷🏽‍♂️ But on the Santa Fe I spent a lot of money on fuel cost like $350 and $400 monthly.

Are those rims 19"? Not sure why Hyundai insists on hurting range on the Limited with the 20" rims.

The J3400 port is no big deal to me. I already have an adapter for when and if Tesla gives Hyundai the green light -which I would only use in an emergency. I get all kinds of compliments on my Limited's wheel covers. As for the cupholders, I much prefer them side-by-side. As for range, the 84 kWh battery boosts my range… only 9 miles. No big deal, if you ask me.

When will it be able to charge at non MagicDock chargers? Is there any definitive word?

Great Video. Thank you. Definitely worth a subscribe. I am really intrigued on the functionality of the Ioniq 5. The only drawback I see is the fact that it only haz a Centre Console and not a full console. To me it is still a deal breaker. But everything else about the Ioniq 5 is great, especially for the 2025 which now has a rear Wiper.

Gotta say, the Buzz got this childless guy thinking about a 3-row vehicle but the Ioniq sold me. With 300 miles of range, this is gonna be the road-trippin' land yacht of my grandparents' dreams.

I can't see how on January 20 the tax credit will magically go away. It would require a bill to be passed by both houses and then signed by the new dictator...I mean president. I'm guessing it would be at least another year at best.

The I9 seems really cramped in the back compared to the Buzz.

7500 dollar discount for a brand New Toyota Hybrid is going to be beautiful, I love the smell of those brand new Toyotas and they last forever!!!!

Damn i thougth i had learnt everything about my 2 month old ID.4. But now i know how to silence the stereo, see the range outlines on the map and wash my rear camera. Thats awesome! Thanks! I really missed a physical mute button, i used to use the scroll-down menu and there's a mute button there, but i wasnt really happy with that. I also didnt knew about how to wash the rear camera, i was so used to always have a clean camera coming from mercedes so that was really annoying because i tougth i always had to wipe the camera with my hands. But now i know! :) I love my id.4 even more now, such a great comfort, cheap to drive and now i know how to use it a little bit better! I totally agree that the salesguy should have had a better course of this

Love those wagons and vans. Hope we see a rebirth of the wagon and mini/vans again. I hated the way the original images looked for the I9. Now it looks a little better. I think it is the right size. Replace those mirrors with cameras for sure. Especially on the big rig semi tractor trucks. Cameras for the win. I disagree that charge speed is the bar and that we should continue to tolerate the 90-100 mile jumps between chargers. If you don't have good range during the winter to be able to go a good distance between charges even when it is cold and the weather is bad is every bit as important as charging speed. If you keep the battery in the sweet spot of 80-20% SOC the overall range needs to be quite good if you are going to have good travel range with that usable power. I think you MUST have both range and charging speed. 800v+ architectures for the win in the charging camp. Hyundai needs to put a LOT of effort into the software. Better routing, charging, and configuration. They are way behind here. I like the Buzz, but VW has too much stuff to get sorted. I don't think they listen to customers at all or they would be doing something to get ID4 sales moving. The list of complaints and wants has to be well known and VW just plods along like a deaf blind horse carrying a load. I like the format of the Buzz, but I would trust Hyundai over VW at this point in time. Besides the I9 should charge like a beast.

The Ioniq 9 is a real winner for large families, sports teams, car pool, shuttles. I think it has leapfrogged all other 3-row EVs, no question. The only reason I would opt for an ID Buzz over it is if VW released a "Westfalia" type of camper model. Wouldn't surprised me if Hyundai/Kia beats them to the punch with such an RV.

Who cares? Not me..I ain't buying one...when Obama canceled the child tax credit, nobody cared enough to stop him...

Have been looking at a i5 for a while and finally bought one last week and your videos have been awesome! Really appreciate you putting out this information in such a nice formatted way!

Very thorough just like we wanted it.

Colorado 2-yr lease on an Ioniq 5 SEL here. The free charging is limited to the first 30 minutes per day so your "charge to 80%" is important. The preconditioning (warmup takes as much as 30 minutes in the cold) is also important. During your 30 minutes free, you want to be getting the fastest charge available, so arrive warm and ready. Once the charge reaches 80%, the car slows down the charging rate so stop charging there. That might leave you a few more free minutes for the day for a top-up later.

Colorado ioniq user here. Just got mine today , thanks for the tutorial!

What apps are the best for reading battery health info? Used leafspy for my Nissan Leaf before. Saw online that there were a few options for ioniqs so curious if you have a preference or don't use them.

You forgot the emergency boot lid release (especially relevant for the Ioniq 6) which is a loop inside a little panel beside the left rear passenger seat. I found out about it as my 12V battery went flat, and then there was no way to get into the boot, where my jump-start battery was stowed. Regarding regen levels, I mostly stick to Level 3 with auto mode (the level does effect how much regen is given in auto; very different in level 1 & auto versus level 3 & auto). That is giving me great efficiency, a smooth ride and excellent braking when cars ahead suddenly slow down.

I love your videos. You're the best. When I bought my VW ID.4 early this year, I didn't learn much from my salesperson (I think it was the first EV she sold). I learned from your videos. Now I'm an expert and give advice to new VW owners on the ID.4 Owners Facebook page. But it all started with you. I've also been very surprised to experience the most hate I have ever received for anything in my life simply by owning an EV. You might be quite insulated from this living in CO, but in a deep red state like mine, everyone is conditioned by incessant Right Wing propaganda that they should absolutely despise EVs as unpatriotic. Their lord and savior, DJT, has made it his mission to "Drill baby drill" and it seems that everybody and his brother makes it their mission to tell me just what a Libtard I am for falling for the EV nonsense. I hear the exact same Fox News talking points from everybody, even the lady who cuts my hair. I was even surprised to get an outpouring of hatred from solar power enthusiasts when I posted a video of my solar EV charging station. They liked the solar, they hated that I was using it to charge something as vile as an EV. This is a more recent thing, but so far I have driven over a thousand miles on pure solar energy. No grid involved. I believe, like you stated, that given a chance to an open minded person, EVs would be found a superior mode of transportation to most people--NOT everyone, but most. However, what you might not be considering is how strong the anti-EV sentiment is in Red states. Identity politics has made tens of millions of people vote against their own interests, that's how strong it is.

Will the 2025 model still come with free 2 year charging?

I wonder who encouraged you to prepare this video of complete nonsense. Are you aware that the public in the US and in Europe and many other parts of the world with the exception perhaps of China is rejecting battery powered electric vehicles? And nobody cares that just because you have the luxury of recharging in your own home that you think electric cars are wonderful. This is not the point. The animosity that the public harbors toward electric vehicles has to do with the fact that they are forced to pay for them with direct subsidies and mandates. And all of this for a form of transportation that does not address the needs and concerns of the majority of the public. Furthermore even a high school physics student can tell you that low energy density power sources are not suitable for transportation. So when the buffoons running the car companies decided to transition to battery electric vehicles they soon found out that their engineering teams had to jump through hoops to make up for the shortcomings associated with the excessive weight of the traction battery - not to mention the thermal management issues. This comes at considerable additional expense - so is this what you're encouraging people to buy? You belong with the buffoon crowd.🤡🤡🤡

Why should I pay for another persons car? Thank god Trump won in a landslide. Elon believes that the debt that the US has is unsustainable. Go DOGE. I'm a public government worker and I have been living off the taxpayers dime.

GREAT VIDEO. SAVED!

I am sure all the ritewhingers who complaining about the economy and the price of eggs will flock to the Tesla shop to pick up their cyber truck now😂😂😂😂😂

EVs in general will definitely drop prices at a minimum $7,500 even at my location new unsold 2023/2024 Hyundai and Kia EV models are dropping prices up to $20,000 on their Ionic 5 and EV6

All of the OEM’s that are producing BEV’s or hybrids are not gonna let the tax credit go away without a significant amount of time for them to prepare. They’re already in talks with the Trump administration about it. The EV tax credit is not going away right at the first of the year through executive order.

I am heavily pondering this exact scenario -- to buy now or wait. Given the end of the (specifically used) tax credit is highly likely, its effect on EV prices I'm not so sure about. Every time I go to find a good deal on a used EV which might benefit from the $4,000 tax credit, the dealer has usurped the credit! None of them are passing the credit onto you. In other words, everything is inflated $4,000 in price almost automatically. The bad dealers even include it in the advertised price! Because of this, I don't think the credits are working or helping in any way. And if they go away, the dealers will be forced to lower their prices. Does that make any sense?

1st. If the 7,500 credit is the reason you’re “able” to afford a EV, then you really can’t afford it. 2nd. The EV tax credits are impacting depreciation in a big bad way. So you’re not really saving money with the credit. 3rd. Once people get over range anxiety and the chargers keep expanding, then the adoption will explode

Wonder why there so many sitting on the lots . gas will be under 2.00 soon .

I was going to buy a Modely Y after we test-drove it a couple of months ago but after seeing him for full nazi (Never go full nazi! lol - Tropic Thunder ref), I'm getting an F150 Lightning.

The way batteries have plunged in cost over the last decade, EVs should already be cheaper than similar sized ICE counterparts. I think manufacturers are keeping prices artificially high.

As someone who in month 2 of a 2 year lease on an Ioniq 6 I'm already thinking it maybe be better just to but the car when the lease is up

If it weren't for the $7500 tax credit I wouldn't be driving a 2024 model Y nor would my brother be driving a Chevy Bolt. The credit was the main reason to pull the trigger on a $48,000 Tesla that became a little more affordable to me. It goes without saying that Orange Julius Caesar will do the dumbest , most illogical thing possible so the credits will be gone until we get another democrat in the White House. I can understand a reluctance to enhance Musk's bottom line but I got my car before he became trump's besty and became a permanent fixture at Mara Lardo. Vote with your feet , it's a tried and true way to say what's on your mind.

Tesla is 100% off my list.

Costing me $7500, not happy.
