    I can appreciate this for what it is, but I do think that they could have made the back opening a hatch instead of a trunk, would really up the practicality.

      No. Not everything needs to be some crossover styled car/van. Sedan is MUCH quieter than a hatch, especially in the back. I have had no issues in using the "practicality" of my 2006 jetta. The pass through allows me to go to home depot and stuff 10' boards into my car and close the trunk. I then look over at the "pickup" trucks that have 10 foot boards hanging over their tailgates by a few feet, or angled up over the top of the tailgate. I have had 16' through my car, with about 5' hanging out the back. Again, that same truck would have 8' hanging out. Get the Ioniq 5 if you need a vehicle that can carry a lot of large items for that single time you may need that utility in the year.

    The silver, with the dark lower trim on the rear is the best color for plastic to sheet metal paint matching. You would have to be under 6 foot in order to be able to use the rear seat, which is a shame. A panoramic sunroof could open up some headroom And definitely would make the cabin feel not so claustrophobic. Hopefully in years to come, they can integrate the side markers into the headlight assembly and address these other details. 15:20 Bought the IONIQ 5 2023 AWD Limited (Gravity Gold Matte) instead.

    To get around the $7500 non-US rebate, people are leasing the car - it's eligible under that programme - then paying off the lease the next month. The key fob also activates the remote parking features, especially handy if you're looking at a tight spot. 2:49 when you turn it over

    I agree with you about the price being the biggest issue. Looks are subjective but price is not. Why would they price it higher than the i5? It has way less trunk space, a low back seat cushion with cramped head room in a market that prefers crossovers to sedans! I'm not an expert in this area but I can't imagine it will do well in North America at this price.

Colorado started a statewide effort about three years ago with grants to local communities. Small towns like Meeker, Creede, Lake City and Ouray now have fast charging to facilitate EV travel throughout rural areas of the state. Even here there are some gaps that need to be filled.

    That price is ridiculous for a car that doesn't even have wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay. As for "OMG, it has very fast charging speed!!!1" - I (as a customer) don't care, I'd much rather have a higher usable battery capacity. Because when you'll happen to be in a place where there's a fast DC charger but it's not working (and none of the mobile apps warned you about that fact) - that "giga fast charging speed" is completely useless.

    You are factually incorrect about iPedal. It is for one pedal driving and it doesn't keep your distance from the car in front. That functionality is part of the adaptive cruise control. I am in the UK, so there may be some slight spec differences, but iPedal is the same the world over. Nice video though, but so far no-one is demonstrating the auto parking and people generally moan about the front trunk space and forget to mention that the size of it depends on which model you buy. The AWD version has the smaller front trunk due to there being a motor underneath, The RWD has a much larger space.

The ICE sedan we are replacing has about 50% more trunk space than the Ioniq 6. Even the rounded tunnel from the trunk to the rear seats area is problematic for storing larger objects. We need a road trip-worthy vehicle to go with the Aptera we are hoping to eventually score, and though the Ioniq 6 SE offers great range that proves not enough for us.
