Bjørn, I do love to see your 1000 km tests, and your commitment is ledgendary. Instead of re-doing the Ionic 5 on dry roads, I would perfer to see 1000 km challenge for the Kia EV6. Thanks for all of your hard work running these tests (it does look fun though).
I really like how "small" producers like you are providing very high quality content than the more known channels which, usually, seem to just read from the specification sheet, making a video out of it (like a commercial). But you really give valuable information to us, comparing to other cars and also mentioning what you like and what you don't... hands on experience. Thank you very much for the great work!
Man, Bjørn, thx so much for all the troubles you go through to make these videos! It's insane how many videos you are producing with the IONIQ5 within the 27 hours you've only got with the car! I really appreciate your effort! I enjoyed watching all of the videos and this one especially! Keep on rockin'! all the best, Julien!
8:38 Wait a sec...you're at the restroom with a bad stomach, watching a live stream of your car charging right outside in the parking lot? Man, gotta love that level of commitment! 😄
What would be a very cool feature is if that light bar under the headlights would show battery percentage when charging or if you pressed the door lock button on the fob 3 times. That space in the middle could represent 50%
It actually does :) but not the horizontal on, right in the middle of the horizontal LED bar there is a small vertical led stripe which shows the charging state :)
You should make the official time 9:99. And if you have any influence you should try to get the car industry talking about frontal area, focusing on only drag coefficient is getting ridiculous. They are basically trying to sell you the Hindenburg while bragging about its 0.07 Cd.
@@Conservator. Incorrect. For example there are trucks with a better cw than some cars. Teslas are so efficient because they have both: A small projected front area and a very good cw. Always easy for me to spot my Model S in a car park: Its the lowest (and the most beautiful) car in the lot. Drag = cw * A and reduced drag is important and that is why this cw advertisement by itself is almost meaningless.
@@patreekotime4578 Drag is based on CdA with Cd being the co-efficient and A being the area. Manufacturers publicise the Cd bit but keep quiet about A.
@@patreekotime4578 No he is correct and you are missing the point. Car companies including tesla market their cars based on drag coefficient (CW), i.e. without the surface area included in the calculation. This make a car look better than they actually are, because they are really large cars.
@@patreekotime4578 Often auto makers cite only the drag co-efficient, without knowing the frontal area, that is not a particularly useful number. You need both to calculate the total amount of drag.
Quite impressive, unfortunately in my country (Poland) the infrastructure is like 8 years behind Norway - most 'fast' chargers do not exceed 50 kW, those over 100 kW are just a few nationwide (probably in one Korean shopping centre you'll find more), so for this part of Europe that 800V architecture is a song of the future. We still care more about the battery capacity and car efficacy than the speed of charging, since most people charge their EV's at home. Nevertheless, things are getting better and hopefully in a couple of years we will have more of those high power monsters as well. Great test as always, man!
Thank you for your video, I'd like also to see the 1000km challenge of the Ioniq 5 RWD version if you could get your hands on it - it should be slightly more efficient and thus the better car for traveling long distances.
@@thoughtsofapeer The 58kWh version is 800V too. It's theoretically around half an hour slower, but in the real world it can use any 150kW charger without loosing too much time.
I wanted one of these - the dealer i use in the UK said 6 months - so I had to get a Hybrid for now - but then he picked me up from the train station in one of these! I was mortified!
Love you’re colloquialism, 🐈 🐈 & 🐩 🐕 I’ve the Niro EV. but looking at both the Hyundai and the new Kia.. I might go for the Kia as it’s got a larger battery than the Hyundai however I just might wait a year or so to allow them to iron out any faults.
Citroens of old had no rear wiper. Look how aerodynamic they are, they said. Result, any moisture you couldn't see out the back. They added a rear wiper. On another note, I lost the will to live. How many refills and how long did they take? Just as well he was getting paid for this and there was no traffic.
Hoping so much for @Bjorn to get hands on a Model Y, even if it's the MIC one. SR+ owner hoping to see results VS other CUV like ioniq5, EQA, enyaq, ID4
Maybe if you ever get to test the 'long range' RWD that may improve the time - but I feel the EV6 may stand a better chance of beating it due to the extra 5kWh it has in it's battery and the better drag coefficient :) Ahgain maybe in the 'long range' 2wd version :)
The EV6 is also lower which reduces the frontal area. The downside is that at 5'9" my head hits the roof in the back. The Ioniq 5 has a lot more room inside because of the height, and the rear seats being able to move forward. Unless you don't plan on putting adults in the back, go for the Ioniq 5.
Bjorn, thanks for the new test and link to the table with updated results. Really good job. I made personally many rapid EV tests but never run to far. May I get any of Your comments if you liked the characters of Ioniq drives? Does it run smoothly, how's its suspension compared with EQC?
I wondered if you will be uploading the 800v/400v charging test video you mention in this video? Thankyou, appreciate your effort doing these videos no one else does,
It seems the aerodynamics simply kills the efficiency in this car at higher speeds. As I've pointed before, this car should be equipped with a battery of 80kWh or larger in order to compensate for increased consumption. Otherwise its highway range is lower than e-Niro. But otherwise it looks like a very practical car. Cannot wait to see EV6 tested.
@@patreekotime4578 It's weird how much it looks like a Lancia Delta Integrale. Next to it this is probably MASSIVE :D It's kind of the same deal as new Mini's, as the first "new" Mini's were really tiny compared to the current ones, I parked mine (2005) next to a new Mini Countryman and felt like a dwarf.
Thanks for this test Bjorn! I'm a bit disappointed though with the consumption and range. That cancels out a big part of the gains from the high charging speed. I'm very curious to see a comparison with the Model Y in this regard.
Consumption is actually very good. This car is very efficient and in Tests also best the model y by up to 5kwh/100km ! Things not considered by most when testing is that the Ioniq is able to mechanically decouple the front motor for even higher efficiency. The only thing where it uses more is at speeds starting above 130kmh because of its exterior design. But as 130 is the speed limit for most countries it sits right there on top with the others but beats them at speeds of 100kmh. Sweet spot would probably be 120kmh
It could be fun to see a 1000km competition to compare the charging infrastructure between different countries. Same cars starting at the same time in Norway and Denmark for example. 😁
Björn, I need your expertise please. Driving 50k a year I would make 160k in three years or so. 85% charging would be hpc. I am not a rich man, so the question is : Will the car/battery be any good after 3 years? 🙂 Thank you 🙂
thank you your great and quite entertaining work. In this video I convinced that this car is not a good option for me due to the high consumption on motorway. keep the great job 👍
It might sound petty but I actually took this of my list of potential next cars because of the lack of wiper/washer in the back. No way I can live with that during winter here in Sweden. And before the fan boys scream that is has a camera instead, that is going to be all dirty in the winter too. There is no excuse for this, and it seems ridiculous as a cost saving thing also. Real sad tbh, I was hyped for this car.
Funny about sunrise in east direction. In my native language, east is "východ", which literally means sunrise (or just "rise" to be precise). Same with west, which is "západ", meaning sunset. So in my country we basically say that sun rises in sunrise direction and sets in sunset direction.
The missing wiper blade is just a design failure. They should have added a wiper blade as it is a hatchback or at least come up with an aerodynamic spoiler that blows the rain away.
Comfy and cool video i already ordered my Ioniq before i watched this video - no regrets still! i assume the car gets thirsty in high speed because its pretty big- i assume the spreadsheet is only with no luggage and passengers? have you ever done tests where you simulate passenger weight? (such as using water jerrycans)
Are you planing to do a Oslo - Bergen trip with new car’s. That would show how the cars would handle climbing and range. You could try to drive up and down Vøringsfossen on road 7 😉
Let me tell you, that rear window in the winter will be a BIG problem…including that high speed high consumption because for daily driving that needs close to the full charge, but you don’t have to go further, you are short 30-50 km on that battery that could mean a stop for a charge that you don’t have to do in another. So to cope with that, you have to reduce the speed and that isn’t always useful, that’s just the hard truth.
I have had the original Ioniq here in the UK for the past three years. Also no rear wiper and it's not been an issue at all. I see serval other brands are now dropping it
I have tested it seevral weeks ago, in bad weather. Within 10km the rear window is invisible. Dirty and total lack of visibility to the point it gets dangerous. For me is a huge design flaw.
You are a Ninja that doesn't need sleep! Be safe. The ABRP has a sonstant that must be adjusted to get an accurate consumption and you just have started figuring that out with your test. Totally agree with RainX!! Nice job. Is the car able to separate one motor during efficiency mode? That may be why it doesn't do better at high speed.
I'd be happy to give up some range for the size and fantastic sharp look of this car and the charging speed makes up for the loss of efficiency on the highway. #1 EV on the market right now imho.
@@rogers999100 the fast charge isn't the cause of higher operational costs. It's the solution to long trips not taking longer than a more efficient car that has to be charged less often but charges slower. The extra cost of more electricity would be well worth it to me over a model 3 for example.
Would love to see Model Y, especially how it compares in terms of efficiency. Ioniq 5 provides a lot of space, but 260 Wh vs 178 in a Model 3 .... that is almost 50% more consumption! At current Ionity or even residential electricity rates, that's quite a difference in cost.
Ioniq 5 is a good deal larger and it is a small SUV so kind of not the same to compare it to a sedan. But if you want to save energy then go with the sedan.
@@duncanstevens2631 Of course, it has ample space. That's why model Y would be nice for reference. I wouldn't mind a little extra consumption, but more than 40% more is quite significant.
On a dry day, Ioniq 5 should have about 220-230 Wh/km consumption. And you can't really compare Ioniq 5 with Model 3. Ioniq 5 is much larger. Wait and see Model Y. That consumption should be more around 200 Wh/km.
This test is in wet condition, the efficiency is not that bad when compared to your M3 number, but all the points mentioned are relevant. MS in same condition is maybe about 220-240Wh/km
@@bjornnyland 200 vs 220-230 is still a big difference, 10%+. In ICE times, 6l vs 6.6l was a big deal. Also, why can't I compare I5 and M3? Of course I can. One has more space, the other has more efficiency. It's a trade-off, and I need to weigh what is more important. Keep in mind I compare from a buyers perspective, not from a tech nerd 'what is the best technology' perspective.
Thanks so much for this Bjorn! I'm strange in that I really need to see properly out of my rear view... and the lack of a windshield wiper might just be a deal breaker for me... :( It's rather silly that they didn't provide one on a car like this.
great test, interested to see comparison to Kia EV6 77.4/72kWh battery RWD. Have a deposit down on each . Assuming range difference may be 20-30km at higher speeds due to Ioniq 5 consumption at faster highway speeds. Is this due to aerodynamics?
Have you ever thought that a car like ioniq 5, which has a big difference in consumption between 90 and 120 km/h, might be "faster" if you go slower? By faster I mean in overall time in the trip, by slower I mean to drive slower to improve the consumption and maybe avoid one charge or so.
There is a german guy he drives always fast to get the best times, somehow its faster to charge more often and drive faster. But this might depend on charging speeds
just use the window heater and you will be able too see much better in the rear windows, I dont think its such a big issue without a wiper if you simply use the tools that you already got.
I wonder if turning the rear window heating on is enough to get rid of the water. I tested this with my Touran, using the heating instead of the wiper, and it helped a lot.
Awesome test! I'll be getting my Ioniq 5 in november in black, same as this video but the RWD version. Btw. Missing the back wiper is not that bad since you can enable the back camera while driving I guess :)
@@au18ert Exactly, I was planning on spraying some water repellent on the back window too. No problem with droplets what so ever. I think most colors Hyundai is offering are a bit boring but the black is really awesome in my opinion especially the high trim that gives better contrast with the grey around the wheels. On lower trims they are more blackish. I’m gonna leave the H’s on. Have no problems with those.
You do great videos Bjorn, thanx. I'v learnd a lot about EV's trogh you. I'm wondering about Ioniq 5's hedlights. Are they manually operated, anny "matrix" going on or is the Id4's a better setup?
Shame about the rearview. I have never once missed the rear wiper on my iPace (2 ½ years of driving in Norway), but this design is disappointing from the Ioniq5
Indeed. The IONIQ Classic and Facelift where fine without rear wiper. I never thought about it. That said, I trusted in the construction principle when I ordered my IQ5 and it’s the number 1 annoyance of the otherwise fantastic car: The need of a rear wiper. I started cruising with rear camera on in some driving situations to achieve a better view.
@@whatsabandicoot IMHO it does not. Because the IQ5 rear window gets really dirt covered in the upper half. Heat cannot wipe the dirt away. Simply said, the air flow along the rear window is far from the efficiency of the IONIQ 2016/2020. However, I like the fact that they removed another moving part. I'd just wished the result would be more like with the IQ classic.
Every new car stands out from others on the road when it is 'new'. To me IO5 is like one of the worst looking car ever, especially the rear.. it looks flat out terrible.
Is the ioniq 5N on the program ? I like to know if the more powerfull one is good for long trips. There still not a decent 1000km test only te stupid i drive to fats en need to charge more.. :p
I was really thinking this might be my next car (my first EV) but you're saying it can only use a few chargers, it suffers at high speed and when it rains you can't see out the back. That's not so good :( When I test drove it it was a dry and bright day, it didn't even occut to me to see if it had a rear wiper, I just assumed it did have.
Very useful. Waiting for US models to arrive (3) It appears to have more useful space than model y and performance secondary so may give up one gas car. Charging stations still not as extensive as Tesla but hopefully that’s changing fast but with the range you are getting with small capacity battery, should not be an issue.
Very disappointing highway consumption. It’s nice it is charging fast, but providing of course you can find a fast charger. And thus, because of the higher consumption, usually you will do more charging stops. Thanks for again a great job!
4 wd is less efficient than the 2wd version. Would you do another test with the "style version" on sunny day. The solar roof gives extra millage? There are no data.
Thanks for all these great tests Bjørn. One question, will you evtl. test also Tesla Model 3 SR+ LFP Version? I´m curious how it would perform with latest updates.
Thing is you would gain at a regular 150kw charger too compared to for example an ID4 because of the higher general charging curve of the Ioniq 5. Not many people seem to consider this.
So... in theory a LFP SR+ should make the 1000km range test even faster due to a better charging curve. To me, this car is not pretty interesting when it comes to range, but with respect to the quality and comfort, is super B. Awesome job!
I think they did. That's the Ioniq 6. Only with a better drag coefficient of 0,21 vs. Ioniq classic, it has 0,23, and way faster charging and bigger battery! 😅 Don't forget that the Classic Ioniq 31 KWh/ 28 usable (1495 kg) is so much lighter than the Ioniq 6 58 KWh/ 54 usable (1850 kg) Would they make the Ioniq 6 in the face lift period a hatchback version, I really like to buy it! I drove the classic Ioniq 28 KWh, and now I own an e Niro MY2019 64 KWh, and I love it!
If it just started raining then the road is not wet yet. And after it has rained then the road is wet but it's not raining. You learn something new every day here. Thank me later.
10:50 it would have helped to include air inlets to allow air to pass through the front wheel wells. That high Cd is to me the only big let down of the car (second is not getting the 77.4 kWh battery they're getting in the USA). Still pretty happy to get the car in september...
Bjørn - thats a lot of charging stops. If the car goes +500km on a full charge, wouldn't 1 (max. 2 due to the rain) charging stops be sufficient to to 1000 km? Also, how much time did charge in total for this trip?
All the work doing these videos, it seems like you really like it and we (the viewers) thank you for that. Greetings from Sweden.

I have had the original Ioniq here in the UK for the past three years. Also no rear wiper and it's not been an issue at all. I see serval other brands are now dropping it
I have tested it seevral weeks ago, in bad weather. Within 10km the rear window is invisible. Dirty and total lack of visibility to the point it gets dangerous.
For me is a huge design flaw.
You are a Ninja that doesn't need sleep! Be safe. The ABRP has a sonstant that must be adjusted to get an accurate consumption and you just have started figuring that out with your test. Totally agree with RainX!! Nice job. Is the car able to separate one motor during efficiency mode? That may be why it doesn't do better at high speed.
I'd be happy to give up some range for the size and fantastic sharp look of this car and the charging speed makes up for the loss of efficiency on the highway. #1 EV on the market right now imho.
And this means that your operation costs increase due to the highly acclaimed fast-charge !
@@rogers999100 the fast charge isn't the cause of higher operational costs. It's the solution to long trips not taking longer than a more efficient car that has to be charged less often but charges slower. The extra cost of more electricity would be well worth it to me over a model 3 for example.
Would love to see Model Y, especially how it compares in terms of efficiency. Ioniq 5 provides a lot of space, but 260 Wh vs 178 in a Model 3 .... that is almost 50% more consumption! At current Ionity or even residential electricity rates, that's quite a difference in cost.
Ioniq 5 is a good deal larger and it is a small SUV so kind of not the same to compare it to a sedan. But if you want to save energy then go with the sedan.
@@duncanstevens2631 Of course, it has ample space. That's why model Y would be nice for reference. I wouldn't mind a little extra consumption, but more than 40% more is quite significant.
On a dry day, Ioniq 5 should have about 220-230 Wh/km consumption. And you can't really compare Ioniq 5 with Model 3. Ioniq 5 is much larger. Wait and see Model Y. That consumption should be more around 200 Wh/km.
This test is in wet condition, the efficiency is not that bad when compared to your M3 number, but all the points mentioned are relevant. MS in same condition is maybe about 220-240Wh/km
@@bjornnyland 200 vs 220-230 is still a big difference, 10%+. In ICE times, 6l vs 6.6l was a big deal. Also, why can't I compare I5 and M3? Of course I can. One has more space, the other has more efficiency. It's a trade-off, and I need to weigh what is more important. Keep in mind I compare from a buyers perspective, not from a tech nerd 'what is the best technology' perspective.
Thanks for this🌹👍 are you gonna do it with the Rear wheel drive long range version to?
Thanks so much for this Bjorn! I'm strange in that I really need to see properly out of my rear view... and the lack of a windshield wiper might just be a deal breaker for me... :( It's rather silly that they didn't provide one on a car like this.
Well, you can use the rear camera...
@@TheHasseklas unless that’s covered with spray and muck as well.
great test, interested to see comparison to Kia EV6 77.4/72kWh battery RWD. Have a deposit down on each . Assuming range difference may be 20-30km at higher speeds due to Ioniq 5 consumption at faster highway speeds. Is this due to aerodynamics?
Have you ever thought that a car like ioniq 5, which has a big difference in consumption between 90 and 120 km/h, might be "faster" if you go slower? By faster I mean in overall time in the trip, by slower I mean to drive slower to improve the consumption and maybe avoid one charge or so.
There is a german guy he drives always fast to get the best times, somehow its faster to charge more often and drive faster. But this might depend on charging speeds
just use the window heater and you will be able too see much better in the rear windows, I dont think its such a big issue without a wiper if you simply use the tools that you already got.
I wonder if turning the rear window heating on is enough to get rid of the water. I tested this with my Touran, using the heating instead of the wiper, and it helped a lot.
That will certainly use a lot more charge than a wiper would.
Awesome test! I'll be getting my Ioniq 5 in november in black, same as this video but the RWD version.
Btw. Missing the back wiper is not that bad since you can enable the back camera while driving I guess :)
@@au18ert Exactly, I was planning on spraying some water repellent on the back window too. No problem with droplets what so ever.
I think most colors Hyundai is offering are a bit boring but the black is really awesome in my opinion especially the high trim that gives better contrast with the grey around the wheels. On lower trims they are more blackish.
I’m gonna leave the H’s on. Have no problems with those.
Hei Bjørn!
Hvordan er ladekurven på denne? Hvor mange mil har man ca før mottak av strøm begynner å dale?
Ah, Bjorn. You're such a wonderful dude. That's all.
You do great videos Bjorn, thanx. I'v learnd a lot about EV's trogh you. I'm wondering about Ioniq 5's hedlights. Are they manually operated, anny "matrix" going on or is the Id4's a better setup?
Shame about the rearview. I have never once missed the rear wiper on my iPace (2 ½ years of driving in Norway), but this design is disappointing from the Ioniq5
Indeed. The IONIQ Classic and Facelift where fine without rear wiper. I never thought about it. That said, I trusted in the construction principle when I ordered my IQ5 and it’s the number 1 annoyance of the otherwise fantastic car: The need of a rear wiper. I started cruising with rear camera on in some driving situations to achieve a better view.
This might be a stupid question - does the heated rear windscreen function not keep it clear?
@@whatsabandicoot IMHO it does not. Because the IQ5 rear window gets really dirt covered in the upper half. Heat cannot wipe the dirt away. Simply said, the air flow along the rear window is far from the efficiency of the IONIQ 2016/2020.
However, I like the fact that they removed another moving part. I'd just wished the result would be more like with the IQ classic.
True, but the EV6 has poor rear visibility, like the Mazda 3 hatchbacks
I can see this time coming down half hour or more in better conditions. It’s got the potential to be a great car!
I saw one for the first time 2 days ago! It's really cool looking car. It's stands out from the others.
Every new car stands out from others on the road when it is 'new'. To me IO5 is like one of the worst looking car ever, especially the rear.. it looks flat out terrible.
You get wicked good charging, the best I've found in America is 175kwh
Thanks for another great video was waiting for you to get hold of this car and test it in your great way well done 👍
Great video Bjorn. You can always try to repeat with the Kia EV6 and compare the results as they are very similar vehicles.
Hyundai, Audi, Tesla,porsche charging like a boss.
Bjørn, would you test the updated 2023 ioniq with bigger battery and upgradet suspension? Please 😊
Is the ioniq 5N on the program ? I like to know if the more powerfull one is good for long trips. There still not a decent 1000km test only te stupid i drive to fats en need to charge more.. :p
I was really thinking this might be my next car (my first EV) but you're saying it can only use a few chargers, it suffers at high speed and when it rains you can't see out the back. That's not so good :(
When I test drove it it was a dry and bright day, it didn't even occut to me to see if it had a rear wiper, I just assumed it did have.
@@ms-jl6dl Wow, are you having a stroke? Calm down fangirl, you'll hurt yourself.
Very useful. Waiting for US models to arrive (3) It appears to have more useful space than model y and performance secondary so may give up one gas car. Charging stations still not as extensive as Tesla but hopefully that’s changing fast but with the range you are getting with small capacity battery, should not be an issue.
Very disappointing highway consumption. It’s nice it is charging fast, but providing of course you can find a fast charger. And thus, because of the higher consumption, usually you will do more charging stops.
Thanks for again a great job!
It is 2 ton with a 70 kW battery.
It uses 22 kW/100km.
Range is about 300km between charging.
back wiper less design is a no go for me. same for EV6. this is ridiculous in 2021.
@shani yan ioniq 5 N will be amazing for the looks
4 wd is less efficient than the 2wd version. Would you do another test with the "style version" on sunny day. The solar roof gives extra millage? There are no data.
Considering the efficiency of the solar roof, the extra power may be meaningless.
Thanks for all these great tests Bjørn. One question, will you evtl. test also Tesla Model 3 SR+ LFP Version? I´m curious how it would perform with latest updates.
Thank you so much for the video.
How was the headlight on the IONIQ5?
Thing is you would gain at a regular 150kw charger too compared to for example an ID4 because of the higher general charging curve of the Ioniq 5. Not many people seem to consider this.
The only issue I have is getting an apprecition for the cars energy consumption. I am used to L/100km.
I think i not pefer the all wheel version. Better the one Motor Version.
So... in theory a LFP SR+ should make the 1000km range test even faster due to a better charging curve. To me, this car is not pretty interesting when it comes to range, but with respect to the quality and comfort, is super B. Awesome job!
At the last stop you are looking sooo tired.
Oh man, great effort to make all this videos in such a short time. Thanks.
Why hyundai didn't make the classic ioniq with this fast charging. It would have been a beast with its low consumption.
I think they did. That's the Ioniq 6. Only with a better drag coefficient of 0,21 vs. Ioniq classic, it has 0,23, and way faster charging and bigger battery! 😅
Don't forget that the Classic Ioniq 31 KWh/ 28 usable (1495 kg) is so much lighter than the Ioniq 6 58 KWh/ 54 usable (1850 kg)
Would they make the Ioniq 6 in the face lift period a hatchback version, I really like to buy it!
I drove the classic Ioniq 28 KWh, and now I own an e Niro MY2019 64 KWh, and I love it!
Now things are getting interesting with charging and range vs price.
..it was raining AND wet... Hmm.., strange..! :-)
If it just started raining then the road is not wet yet. And after it has rained then the road is wet but it's not raining. You learn something new every day here. Thank me later.
10:50 it would have helped to include air inlets to allow air to pass through the front wheel wells. That high Cd is to me the only big let down of the car (second is not getting the 77.4 kWh battery they're getting in the USA). Still pretty happy to get the car in september...
Bjørn - thats a lot of charging stops. If the car goes +500km on a full charge, wouldn't 1 (max. 2 due to the rain) charging stops be sufficient to to 1000 km? Also, how much time did charge in total for this trip?
What a beautiful landscape! (and a beautiful car) ;)
Rear window defroster should help a lot for the rear visibilty when it's raining ;)
Nice vídeo Bjorn hey do you whats the name of this music ?
