      BTW, the FRUNK on the latest shipping Ioniq 5 (don't know if it's only the RD version or both RD & AWD) is like 10x as BIG as the one on your demo car. If you want to see how gargantuan the frunk is look at 1:06 of this review: ua-cam.com/video/6eGMn9b9Ae8/v-deo.html

      The box shape and other styling ques of the Ioniq 5 will age like an AMC Pacer/ Gremlin from the 70s or a Chevy Citation from the 80s. The Nissan Ariya looks better than both the Tesla and Hyundai.

      Edmunds - the IONIQ 5 is an OK, car its Better than the MX-30, Mach-e, iD.4 , BOLT and LEAF, but it SIMPLY cannot match a DUAL MOTOR Long Range model Y.
      the IONIQ 5 is too HEAVY , too SLOW , too Short RANGE, and its LESS Efficient than the Model Y. the IONIQ 5 has a REALLY CRAPPY Drivetrain and EV Platform called GIMP , and trust me the IONIQ 5 is a GIMP.
      but, both the KIA EV6 and IONIQ 5 should do well, but its NEVER going to SELL Tesla model Y numbers.

      The Hyundai is stylish, comfortable, and practical. It should sell very well if Hyundai can produce enough of them. It has been out in Europe for a while, and I read good things from owners there. to me the Model Y has awkward proportions, is starting to look dated, and while some call the interior "minimalist" it strikes me as simply cheap.
      The biggest downside of owning a Tesla may be social. A large number of Tesla fans are particularly rude in their online comments. I haven't looked but I am sure there are some like that under this video. (and now I see a typical example just above this post)

I really like that thoughtful touch of Hyundai. And the seats that come with foot rests are also very nice ideas. I also like how the backseats can be moved back and forth to increase cargo room and the angle of the seat back can be adjusted. My mom has back problem and she needs the seat to be upright position. Hyundai is very thoughtful in a lot of ways and can be evident in its designs. Really nice EV from the brand.

    The moving console will almost always be back. For those (hopefully) few times when you have five people in the EV, that middle rear passenger needs the extra legroom that moving the console forward creates. With only two rear passengers, moving the conole back brings the USB ports closer to their laps. I think it is a GREAT feature.

If you don't drag race or live in a snowy Minnesota small town I would go for a single motor.

      Ioniq 5 AWD costs around 3000 CAD less than the Model Y LR here in Norway. If it had been priced at 42 000 cad total, for the whole car with everything it has, then it would be okay. For pretty much the same price as the Model Y, you instead get an outdated car that has a infortainment system that rivals 6 year old Volkswagen and a map that rivals a 15 year old Mercedes or BMW. I can't think of a single thing the Ioniq inforscreen does not do WORSE than a 2016 Passat GTE. I can find a few things it does on par or even better than my 2015 Golf stationwagon, but userfriendlynes, ease of use and so forth are horrible.
      And you get all of that outdated technology for 7500 CAD more than the ID4 GTX (With the GTX having less driving assists and so forth because of computer part shortage)

    Note I’m a big fan of Tesla, my whole family owns them and I’ve an early investor. So I’m a perfect candidate for their cars.
    It’s a great car that stands on it’s own but what influenced my decision specifically over Model Y:
    The ability to pick a trim- Tesla’s are all premium trim offering perks I just don’t care about so I appreciate being able to pick a lower trim and not have junk I don’t need in a car.
    Price (and tax rebate).
    Having a driving interface that has buttons and useful information… not just one screen. I do really find the center screen distracting when driving.
    2 years of free charging.

    I’m a huge Tesla Fan and love what they have done for the industry… but the styling of the Y just couldn’t sway me and now with massive price increases (due to more demand than supply) and competitive options like this Ionic 5, it is much harder to go for Tesla. Instead I would go with the Ionic 5 and would buy Telsa stock with the money saved. The Ionic styling, build quality, features (heads up, user interfaces, V2L) and positive reviews really help the decision.

    Today was the first time I save an Ioniq 5 on the road and I did not know what it was. I caught up, and was impressed with the overall shape of the car, and the dash screens really caught my eye. If Hyundai can do away with the "dealership games" that have made buying a car on the second worst experience to a root canal, they can really make hay here. So far the EVs that I've had from traditional manufactures have all been tainted from the sales, and service that we all have come to dislike about them.

    Both vehicles offer unique and innovative features. Hyundai's V2V/V2L is fantastic, turning the car into a mini-generator. Tesla's software, with their Toybox, Arcade, and Theater, not to mention endless OTA updates, are a lot of fun. I think, as with any major purchase, it will depend on what's most important to you. Tesla's Supercharger network, and how it's integrated into the car's navigation and battery management systems, is the best if you frequently do road trips. The non-Tesla charging network is still playing catch up. But if that's not important to you, the Hyundai's vented seats, more traditional interior, and overall design may work better. So, do your research. Figure out what car works best for you. Personally, I don't think these two compete due to the huge price difference. $60k for an MY LR puts the Tesla in another price bracket. I think the Hyundai competes more directly with something like the VW ID.4 and others that with pricing closer to $45-55k. I do agree that there are now a lot more EV choices. Competition is always a good thing.

      The price difference in Norway amounts to Model Y being about 3400 dollars more. But the Ioniq has a worse infortainment system than my 2015 Golf, a lot worse than the 2016 Passat GTE. The map is the worst I have seen in the last 15 years. My father sold used cars, so I have seen a lot of the different maps that have been since they first started to appear in cars.
      You cannot use the map to navigate for long trips, as you can with the Tesla and VW. Even with a 80 percent charge, and a drive that is 600 km, it tells you to charge right away. It doesn't plan ahead. You also cannot navigate the map in any meaningful way.
      You cannot place the map in front of you, and the headup display isn't visible with my sunglasses on. The headup was also much better on the ID4.
      It doesn't remember regen (accident waiting to happen, if you one day don't remember to put it into I-pedal) and the speedometer is behind the wheel. I had to move my whole upper body to see the screen. Compared to the ID4, which is right there, or the Tesla which you have to adjust your eyes slightly to the side. No body movement at all with those cars.
      I would say it felt like you got 15 000 dollars more car with the Model Y. When a ID4 with few "add-ons" costs 5700 dollars less than the Ioniq, it also is hard to justify.
      It is espeically hard to justify the car, since the screen is at least 6 years outdated and the map at least 12 years....

    After hours of comparison videos and deep dives into the Inoiq 5, I finally test-drove the SEL trim and was very impressed, although the matte gunmetal gray was not my thing and I would like the Premium trim with the longer range. It definitely does look and feel larger than I thought it would, and the interior was nicely laid out. I wasn't crazy about the two horizontal touch screens at first - they were so stark and white - and the driver's panel was a little weird - at first. I actually like the night setting and would consider using it during the day as well because the white screens are bland looking in my opinion. Considering I had never experienced the controls before, everything was fairly intuitive. I am not crazy about having to rely on both the touch screen and the buttons beneath it to control the fan, etc, but perhaps there is a way to just use one or the other. Also, as I was driving, I reached over to turn the volume knob and my hand grazed the "Warmer" setting of the temp control. I didn't realize anything had happened until it started to get very warm and I looked over to see that the temp had increased quite a bit (It was 100 degrees outside). The location of the shift changer took a little getting used to, but it will grow on me. The back seating area is HUGE! My husband is 6'4" and had a LOT of head and leg room available. I'm tall as well, and not getting any younger, so having the seat height higher makes it much easier (and more graceful in a dress) to get in and out of compared to my Clubman. I was bummed that USB-C charging ports aren't yet available - why not put one of each side by side? I'm in Houston, so I am not as concerned about not having a rear wiper, but it does rain torrentially at times, so having one on my Mini Clubman is indeed helpful. My only other experience with an EV was in the Polestar 2 during my trip home to WA state. I LOVED that car but did have my stomach in knots on my first leg because I couldn't stop worrying that I would run out of power since I was driving over the Cascade mountain range. It was stressful even though the car was displaying my range and how many miles remaining upon arrival. Once I got over that first trip and the hurdle of finding a charging station that wasn't being used already, I knew an EV was for me. As I mentioned, I'm in Houston, and although one would think charging stations are few and far between, that's not the case and I can envision going to San Antonio, Waco, or Austin easily, as well as a trip to Dallas with only a quick charge needed. Oh and regarding Ryan's comment about not being sure about the moving console - well, since he probably doesn't carry a purse or bag, it may not seem important, but I am always having to deal with my purse and put it on my floorboard on the passenger side or on the seat, and having it on the floor within easy reach in the Ioniq 5 is definitely a plus. I am a huge car buff and the trim and interior features are important to me, so to make sure the Ioniq 5 is for me, I'm going to test-drive a couple other makes/models - the Genesis GV60, Mustang Mach-E, the Nissan Ariya (I sat in one while in WA - the Nissan guys let me charge my Polestar rental and they had a couple Ariyas there) - and, this may be crazy - the Fisker Ocean (the One trim is my preference). The only thing bothering me about Fisker is the brand has gone bankrupt before and even in the 4th largest city in the country, finding a dealer may be tough. I'll be checking out Edmunds reviews on these makes/models. Wish me luck - I'll be in an EV SUV in 2024 (or before if a cool '24 comes out before January).

    What a great review. I drove a 2020 Tesla Model Y which I got rid of after too much phantom braking that became dangerous (I know I was in the minority experiencing that much). I purchased an Ioniq 5 Limited AWD like this one. Overall I’ve been happier with it. I do miss the way the Model Y takes corners, and how tight it’s steering is (the Ioniq’s is tight only in Sports mode). I miss the OTA updates. But I don’t miss anything else. Btw, that space in front of the console is where my daughter puts her school backpack on the way to school, or where I put my work backpack on the way to a meeting. The sliding console is really useful when you’re using that luxury front seat feature leaning it all the way back while waiting for charging or for someone at an appointment. Moving the console back gives you access to things on it while lying down.
    Finally, I too find the Hyundai’s HDA2 better than Autopilot. It is far less aggressive in it’s moves and it never, and I mean never, phantom brakes. That alone is a breath of fresh air.

The Hyundai tends to drift more and after a lane change you hold it there and watch the lines to know you’re locked in. With the Tesla it’s a more deliberate maneuver and it feels safer it’s more obvious when it’s engaged with Hyundai you really have to watch the lane monitor to make sure you’re in lane keeping mode.

    I think it was a pretty fair review, but as you said, your Model Y is over a year old and Tesla has continued to improve their fit and trim as well as other improvements, but I cannot disagree with you on that. My pick would be the Tesla Model Y. On an SUV style car, space is paramount. That extra space under the rear can hold all your car stuff, which makes most cars look junky. Also (as you said) the Tesla Supercharging networks make the Model Y a car you can take cross-country trips in. I think that would not be a fun trip in the Ioniq. And the OTA updates really put the Y over the top!

The Volkswagen id4 is a really nice vehicle. Build quality was exceptional and ride comfort was fantastic. The UI though was absolutely awful and the driving experience was beyond boring. I honestly went back early and cut the test drive short because it was that bad to me. As far as consumer EV’s go, it seems Tesla is the only one not afraid to give the public actual performance instead of watering it down. Even the sr+ is nothing to sneeze at and will instantly haul butt at the press of a foot. Not sure why other regular manufacturers (not Porsche and other high end EV’s) seem so afraid to give people some performance feedback in the driving experience. Even the charge amount, Tesla gives you more to work with (advising daily charging up to 90% and 100% with LFP batteries) where the other brands say they have a huge range, but only suggest you to charge 80% max. One vehicle I will say that is really nice for the price and what you see is what you get is the Kia Niro EV.

If you had asked me 6 months ago, I would have said that I've been waiting to buy a Model Y since it was announced. Today, I'm taken aback by Tesla's ever rising price on their Y, as well as the continual increases on the work-in-progress self driving features. I've been keeping a close eye on the Ioniq 5 since the previews, and these reviews have me leaning far more toward Hyundai now - something I never would have predicted. I look forward to seeing this at a dealership. With a kid in college, I need to get a hands-on feel for the storage space. Lugging all those clothes, books, and electronics chews up a lot of space! The videos are great, but some things can only be properly judge in person.
    The biggest concern has to be the charging network. Tesla has spent a lot of time and money building out their proprietary network. I even have a dozen superchargers within a mile of my home in suburbia! Electrify America? Not so much - not even en route to my kid's college. That could be the real deal breaker. The charging stations are a critical part of an EV's ecosystem! Wondering if anyone has any real world feedback about the charing network and recharging time on the road in the NY, NJ, CT, PA region?

    You can beat the brand value & stock market.
    But you can never match the build quality & experience of making a car of a company which have been making cars for several decades....

      NIO and Xpeng are making cars with comparable or better build quality than the Japanese. Tesla just skimps on quality. That's a company culture, not a tech expertise. Musk is the reason these cars still come out like crap.

    I would not trade my Model Y LR for the Ioniq but I love that it exists because I get to see that great great styling from inside my car.

    The Tesla would be my choice IF it was the same price as the Ioniq 5 AWD, but it's not even close, in Canada it's $77K for Model Y, and $55K for Ioniq 5 AWD. $22K is a large difference that would sway me to the Ioniq 5.

      @@illegalmachine Here's your first then. I've driven over 20K miles in the last 10 months including at 8 long distance trips that required me to use DC fast charging and my primary source was EA. I've had very few issues and none that caused any significant delay to my trip. My longest trip was over 5K miles. Is EA as good as the Tesla network? NO. But it's rapidly catching up. You might also want to check out Out of Spec reviews. Kyle does a lot of cross country driving and last I checked he owns the record for a canonball run in a Porsche Taycan across America that even beat the Tesla record. Finally, you might want to think about the fact that unless Tesla opens up it's Super Charging network to non-Teslas, they will have the legacy network. They are rapidly becoming the BetaMax of the EV world.

      @@ultratodd The other person who replied disagrees with you. Tesla is constantly expanding and upgrading the SC network. Unlike the broken and vandalized public chargers I see and read about.
      Jonny Lieberman for MT had a Taycan GTS a couple weeks ago and had to go to 4 different EA chargers to find one that worked. And it took a phone call to customer service to get the car charged. But TESLA is betamax? The system tied to my phone, that my car automatically knows to direct me, that automatically charges me when I plug my car in without installing or fumbling through a dozen apps and logins? 😂
