[@Barefoot_Joe]

They don't buy big vehicles like a Ranger for work or off road, they buy it to bully other drivers as proved in this video

[@TheLinkedList]

Ah yes the 4x4 legendary drivers and their stupid excuse of buying it for "dangerous road conditions" or "living in thee country side" to then only ever NOT use it for those purposes. You'd think they were compensating for something when buying the big junk boxes

[@oKOMAPo]

Just stop and smack the emergency lights 🤣 they will go offroad

[@zakelwe]

I do dog walks and have to use country lanes, so I put my wing mirrors in to reduce width. The number of times I see large SUVs approaching with their wheels over the white lines in the middle of the road as they cannot judge their width and / or a 23 inch alloy wheel is very expensive to get a scratch out of :) DON'T DAMAGE THE ALLOYS ! Apparently they have a command driving position so they can see over hedges, though how that helps them get their fat car down a narrow road seems to be lost ... PCP paying tossers the lot of them. Duke Nukem wouldn't bother ripping their heads off and shitting down their necks. Probably.

Pickup truck driver asks Matt why he didn't wait at the passing place instead of trashing the verges.

I've had my EV6 just over 4 weeks, 1500miles so far and love it. I agree with Mats review. If I have one complaint is that it can be a bit dark on the inside, I have the GT Line RWD and no sunroof and it would be better with it. The styling is gorgeous, I am constantly being stopped by strangers asking what it is and complimenting the styling, I've never had that before ! Handling and ride is amazing, eco mode and it's calm and relaxing, Sport mode turns it into a hooligan. This car really handles twisty B roads well, its great fun and so calm and assured at the same time.

There's one HUGE reason why I've ordered the Ioniq 5 over the EV6. I get the Ioniq 5 with the premium ventilated front seats AND the heads up display. If you want the heads up display in the EV6 you have to buy the GT version (which is more expensive than the fully-specced Ioniq 5), which doesn't have the following: - Premium ventilated front seats - Only has 6 airbags instead of 7 - Memory function for the drivers seat - Electrically adjusted passenger seat in front - Electrically adjusted passenger seats in the back In the EV6 I'll have to choose between HUD and those things. In the Ioniq 5 I'm getting it all 🤷‍♂️

Exactly would be nice to hear how long 5-10 miles takes, if you can charge 10 miles in 15 minutes that could be really usefull.

[@kirikset]

At 1,5 KW it charges 1,7% of 75 KWh in one hour. Or about 0,4% in 15 minutes. With 300 miles of range it translates to 1,3 miles in 15 minutes or 1 hour and 55 minutes for 10 miles of charge.

Is one thing to be aware of in the EV6 is that the front seats don't go down as much as you would expect, and headroom for taller people may be an issue. I got to sit in one recently at the LA Auto Show, and while I'm average height, I was hoping the seat could go lower than it does.

Test drove both. Much prefered the Ioniq 5. Not only the much better looks but the back seating was a huge difference and since it will be used with adults in the back often its a deal breaker.

[@nobody-nq9mn]

tbf, there are rarely people that transport adults in the back. it's such a small group of people that most buyers don't care about so much legroom. if the kids fit then it's fine for more then 90% of the buyers. it's not your typical transport vehicle like an S class or something.

At last... A detailed review that actually covers the differences in the specification. Notably that many features are only available in the top Hyundai and some are still optional extras! Unfortunately, the paint options have been totally overlooked. The Hyundai mainly sells black, white or Silver... Or matt finishes. No red, blue, yellow or green. Also, the fastest Kia is much faster (0-60) than the top fastest Hyundai.

[@davidcolin6519]

Best exterior design is the KIA, for me. I agree that the Hyundai I agree that it is going to date quickly. I must say that I simply adore the exterior of the KIA. OTOH, I much prefer the interior of the Ioniq. Firstly, I love the pale colours available for the Hyundai and the spacious feeling. Nor am I impressed with the claustrophobic atmosphere instilled by the small windows and dark colours in the KIA. And the Ioniq 5 would get my money, no doubt because I am not that concerned with the view of the outside which I would see only infrequently, but you spend much more time looking at the interior. I know that KIA has extra cost interiors, but they are expensive and the only one I like (a bit) is over €1300 more.

Great review! I'm leaning towards the Hyundai because I think the retro-inspired look will age better and also because I'm more comfort oriented

[@milogreen2890]

I drove both and while I initially favoured the EV6, I now prefer the Ioniq 5 by far. It is shorter while offering more space in all directions inside. It does away with the middle console, which makes it feel airier. The sunroof is way bigger than on the EV6. Windows are bigger, offering more visibility all around. I sit higher, further helping visibility. There is more light inside the vehicle. The suspension is noticeably smoother than on the EV6, also the steering. The EV6 is supposed to be “sportier”, which might be interesting for the first couple of hours. Afterwards it’s just annoying. The only plus for the EV6 are the more comfy seats. But it feels kinda cramped inside despite it’s huge size. They really hit it out of the park with the Ioniq 5 in terms of optimisation towards practicality. The design is a matter of taste and I kinda like it. The color choices are horrible though, can’t even have a normal non-matte but metallic silver. However, compared to the competition at that price range it’s still a no brainer.

[@wkearney99]

I drove both, for extended test drives, and bought the EV6. Both are excellent EVs, but I preferred the EV6 style and features. That and some of the Ioniq's button placement is... odd.

The top end model of the IONIQ5 here in Canada comes with a $5,000 optional package that gives a leather interior, and a bunch of other interior stuff like a sunroof, sunshades, ventilated seats, heated rear seats, and a wack of other stuff. Not sure what the Kia options are (my dealer locally refuses to sell EVs) but the IONIQ5 fully spec'd out is fantastic

[@용준-s5y]

As a Korean, I want to sincerely support Hyundai. Hyundai Motor has been the object of ridicule in numerous movies and TV shows for decades, and there is probably a perception that it is a cheap car until now, but I feel good that it is gradually becoming a fun car while developing the N series. Of course, Hyundai Motor won the WRC and is the world's fifth-largest automobile manufacturer, but I hope it will be an automobile company that can give good memories, experiences, and impressions to many people in many countries rather than being represented by these indicators. I hope that Hyundai will always be next to them at the moment when some people took their first car, some people took a trip with their family, and others with their lovers.

Both look like great cars and I would take either over a Model 3. I love my Polestar 2 after 12 months especially now it's been upgraded to but the EV6 performance model coming out next year is tempting for sure.

[@-BigCstyle-]

“next year”

[@GameplayAddict]

the comparison for tesla is the model Y, not the model 3.

I can't stand SUV/Offroad drivers who can't be bothered to use their side of the road or touch the grass a little. Thanks for advising him.

[@danielh4295]

Exterior: Ioniq 5 (love the modern vintage) | Interior: EV 6 (more practical)

[@KaneLives1981]

I want the EV6 but with the external looks of the Ioniq 5.

Nice video carwow team.But I would have loved to hear about the safety rating as well of these two cars.Thank you so much for the upload.Loved it😍

Matt wanted to have a fight with the Ranger driver 🤣

[@93455Driver]

Mat, if you check the video Ford Ranger did put two wheels on some leaf litter, you helped that driver realize some of the potential of his expensive truck, you rock! Now though he has to go to the car wash. I wonder what that guy would have done if he had a Ford Raptor, would have been stuck waiting for Mat to reverse?

I've also recently seen the Ioniq5 IRL and I, too, pretty much had my brains blown seeing how huge it really is. The design looks compact but it's ONLY the looks. They've really outdone themselves. I'm actually considering getting it now. Haven't seen the EV6 yet, though and I gotta see if the back seat drawbacks don't bother me personally.

[@mdktf8681]

Think they look cheap and nasty, especially inside.

[@ghp0518]

It is bigger than a Tucson but it looks like a normal hatchback because it has the same proportions just enlarged : ex when seeing it in photos you may think it's a hatchback with 16 or 17 inch wheels but in reality the 2 wheel options are 19 and 20 inch.

[@UnseenSpirit]

Back seats don't bother me either. I may have someone in the back seat once or twice a month

[@syd_jzx100]

Just saw my first IONIQ5 on a tow truck here in Sydney. It looks insane in person.

[@MEMOAN84]

Doesn’t the Ioniq 5 come with a sunroof in the UK? As he said in the vid? We ordered the top version that comes standard with a panoramic sunroof (vision roof) in Denmark.

[@inflicts8217]

Pretty sure it is only a panoramic roof. Not a sunroof, meaning that you can’t “open” it.

[@MEMOAN84]

@@inflicts8217 Nonetheless it’s much bigger than the one in EV6. = more light and better view.

[@IngemarGustafsson]

@@MEMOAN84 Exactly. A bit unfair to point out that the Ioniq 5 doesn't have a sunroof, compared to the EV6. He could equally well have pointed out that the Ev6 doesn't come with a panoramic glass roof (much nicer, imo), compared to the Ioniq 5.

[@tezb]

Don’t think u can spec the 5 with a panoramic roof here in the uk ,

[@Guiggs17]

@@IngemarGustafsson Looking the site of Hyundai UK it's pretty clear that it doesn`t offer any type of sunroof neither panoramic roof, they put pictures of the model with the panoramic roof but with a big disclaimer that is not the UK model and the roof is not available there. Also Hyundai doesn`t offer the light interior in UK wich I think suits best in the Ioniq

[@rashnaaibara1781]

I had been waiting for this review for a long time. In uk. Both have an extremely long wait. I preordered the ev6 last month. ETA 6 months. 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Great review of the rear seats!

In my opinion all car companies should add an option to choose between physical buttons and a touch screen.
