@@bjsc1100 how do you mean?

They are mate yes, I forgot to mention that in the clip. Not sure why huhdai couldn’t have usb c port for car play though

It’s an OK sound system, the sound stage is great but it just lacks that power, you’re just hoping for it to smack you in the face but it’s more like “meh” 🤣

@@EVJACK haha that’s fair enough but in my experience it’s not found in your regular branded cars. Sounds system in most of my previous cars have been cars and needed some form of upgrade.

Yeah that’s true, you just expect a car valued at £50,000 to have an amazing sound system

both cars are beautifully designed! what makes you set on the 5?

@@EVJACK just more pleasing to the eye I've seen it in person,comes down to just choice and the 5 has the N variant which is spectacular.

Definitely go for the 5n that is a machine!!! Very rapid

The ioniq 5 is a nice car and so is the 6, if you want my honest answer…. I would go for the seal. BYD are doing some fantastic things at the moment and i wish id have gone for that too. Polestar again great car but is it as good as the BYD… tough choice but for me BYD wins again for its tech

Yes, definitely, cooled seats, sun roof and HUD for me was a definite upgrade

I appreciate that!

Yes, it is! However, it’s slow and laggy 🙄

Tech is ok pretty basic though

Glad I could help!

It certainly allows a lot of light in, and then you can keep the sun of your head by using the shade when needed

Thank you! Real work 280-310 is what I have seen

It’s personal preference, the 5 is certainly a nice looking vehicle

Some would agree with you! However, I do prefer a sedan

Thanks they certainly add something to the review 🔥

Hi mate thanks for your reply, You're absolutely right about the sound system. It's a total letdown! I can't believe they advertise it as Bose. The infotainment is a nightmare too-slow, unresponsive, and just not what you'd expect from a car like this. It's a shame, because the rest of the car is really nice. I love the LED lighting and the cool door designs. And I know it sounds weird, but I've actually grown to like the window controls in the middle! I've heard sales haven't been great, and I can see why. Would you buy another Ioniq 6, or are you waiting for the new infotainment system they're supposed to release in 2027?

@EVJACK I'm on a three year lease so that would be perfect timing. I chose the 6 for its unique looks and rare road presence but I have to say I love the way it drives. I would have another but the AWD and I'd wait for the refresh. I hope they keep at it because the cars good. On day 2 I got quotes for stereo update, I asked for something just to add more depth. I was quoted 1300 for an amp and sub and 3300 for 6 speakers amp and sub, apparently it's set up to make it very difficult to upgrade without changing everything. Needless to say I didn't bother. Ditch some of the eco crap interior for a quality feel and fix the highlighted areas and I think it's a 9/10 car. Oh and for the love of God will someone tell me how to change from DAB to Bluetooth media. In Bluetooth the menu has a media choice option but not in DAB so you have to use voice control, it's slowly sending me mad🤣

Totally agree with you on the unique look and road presence - it definitely stands out which is why I chose it too. I’ve heard a few people say the AWD version is the way to go, wishing I upgraded to that model now 🤣 That stereo upgrade quote is wild though 😳 It’s a shame they make it so hard to improve the sound system without overhauling everything. I know you can by a DSP amplifier for around £500 which could be a cheaper alternative to getting more control over each speaker. Hopefully Hyundai will address stuff like that in the refresh. As for the DAB to Bluetooth media switch - yeah, I feel your pain! The voice control workaround isn't the best. I’ll try to dig around and see if there’s an easier way, but if anyone else knows a quicker solution, feel free to jump in! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and hopefully they keep improving what’s already a solid car!

@EVJACK thanks mate, I'll look into that amp👍

Thank you for your compliments mate, I’m new to this vlogging this so hopefully I can fill you with some good honest feedback. How are you finding such a beautiful car? Well not discuss the infotainment system though 🤣

oh im sure i read online that The Hyundai Ioniq 6 has a maximum AC power output of 233 kW and a maximum DC charging rate of 350 kW :/ but even then its still quick enough :) have you got an ioniq 6?

Oh don’t do me like that 🤣 it felt like a disaster to me especially pre coffee 😳 please subscribe 🤞🤣

Gets the comments 😉 Oh absolutely no issues at all and so much easier having an EV. A lot more fun to drive and just overall easy. What car are you driving?

That’s just part of driving an EV, ups and downs but more ups so you just enjoy the journey 🤣

Glad it was helpful!

That’s some good range still, what is your average MPKWH? The cheapest I found was Tesla but again limited to where you can charge and the capacity is only 250kwh I thought the exact same thing, it’s still nippy but does sometimes just lacks that umph! Have you made any modifications to yours? Mate don’t! The amount of hate I have for the Bose is crazy, even when tweaking the eq it still sounds meh. Christ! Have you not just thought about swapping the amplifier?

Hi Toby, Thanks for your reply and for taking the time to watch my videos, I appreciate your time and comment. I made fewer, shorter stops due to the distance I was driving. This allowed me to stretch my legs without spending too much time charging. While some people prefer longer stops, I'm not entirely sure why. I would have thought longer stops would be beneficial, but as I'm not an EV expert, I'm unsure about the real advantages of each approach. Regarding charging speeds, I'll definitely consider your advice. 150 kW seems like a decent speed. It's disappointing that the price is the same regardless of whether you use a 350 kW or 150 kW charger. Based on your experience, what are the main factors to consider when choosing between shorter, more frequent stops and longer, less frequent stops for EV charging during a long trip?

Hi Jack, for me it would be how long it takes you to get to the charger, particularly if it was 150kW plus. Given the speed these chargers, I think stopping to charge to 80% is generally so quick that it outweighs the time to drive to the charger, plug in and start charging, unplugging and then driving off (I guess it depends how close they are to your route as well). Now if I was getting low on charge (rarely get below 20%) and there was only a say 50kW charger there and I faster one not that far away, I might consider just a very quick top-up, before moving on to a faster charger, however I've not found I've had to do that by planning my route first. I'm not sure there is a best solution, or an answer as to what is the best. For me, I'm often happy for a slightly longer break, less often, as I usually combine with a stop to eat, and as I have back issues, sometimes to recline the seat fully and have a lie down (it is better for my back than getting out and having a walk around to stretch my legs), whereas for others they perhaps prefer shorter stops more frequently. I think it is whatever works for you.

Very welcome, I will always be an advocate for EV's, cost wise and efficiency are always going to win

You need to be patient with EV's, especially as you mentioned it is new tech. They say, good things come to those who wait lol

Ups and downs to most things however, with an EV its mainly ups due to the cost :) thanks for watching

Thanks for subscribing :)

@@TheMosef123 hi mate glad you found my video useful, I would recommend it yes definitely in the ultimate spec. Bear in mind this is still a new vehicle so there are things good and bad with it like any vehicle. I will be releasing a full review of the bad and good things about this car soon

hi mate, you're welcome thanks for taking the time to watch my video too. I think I'm still running and older version which is why mine is different.

I am a customer of octopus energy so we can charge for 7p pkwh so in total costs around £4 to get a full charge. wheel is on correct side for UK I think my camera has flipped where I'm sitting

I just signed up to a similar deal with Ovo but charging on road trips is literally highway robbery.

@@cyruslad5462 Public chargers are stupidly expensive! unless you become a member of tesla then you can get it at a much cheaper rate

@EVJACK aside from the negative health consequences of sitting in a McDonald's car park after 10pm Instavolt at 56p is the best in my area. Hopefully these prices will come down at some point, the profit margins are insane - even considering installation costs.

Ah yeah maybe dont use the mc Donald's ones at that time lol! think us EV owners maybe gain weight quicker due to eating and charging? 56p isnt too bad, is that on a 150kwh charger? I hope they doo too as itll put a lot of EV owners off especially if they cant charge at home.

mate thank you so much for that insight, I wondered if it was due to my soc being too high. how did you find the drive?

Very smooth. Shortest stop was 8 minutes. Longest was 24 (90 kW charger).

@@Phil_ferg Its like driving on clouds isn't it? see you cant argue with 8 minutes can you?

I also recommend you buy a single for CarPlay called Tbox Ambient 6225, thing is splendid for long trips and overall QOL

Is that with the bose system? ill give your settings a try. where do you have the position?

@@EVJACKscratch that my guy, +9, -9, +9 now and never going back, same position as u

legend thanks mate ill give them options a go and see how they fair up, this dongle you mentioned does that have an impact on the audio quality?

@@EVJACK with the latest update it really doesn’t, the best dongle for audio is Ownice A5, but they haven’t upgraded the chip on it yet so it’s kinda slow, the one I suggested gets regular updates and is plenty fast for some popcorn time on the fast lane

hahah i see what you're saying! in the UK its correct, or maybe my camera has flipped my position

Thanks mate, I did say I’ll do overall cost at the end of the week so keep an eye out for that one 👍

Let’s just forget the £15K depreciation in the first year.

@@bordersw1239 all vehicles depreciate

@@EVJACK but they don’t all depreciate by around 40% in their first year.

Some EVs depreciate quicker than others
