Thomas I really appreciated your 'off the cuff' discussion of driving technique in any modern EV. I have experienced mild car-sickness in both the passenger seat and the rear seat when an unaware driver was driving an EV (both times a Tesla) because of the instant power response and the deceleration from regenerative braking. As a long-time hybrid and EV driver, I have said that people need special instruction on how to drive these vehicles to maximize economy and smoothness. Spending months in Southern California I can tell you that most drivers have a driving technique that is not only wasteful in an ICE car but nausea-inducing in an EV. Accelerator, brake, accelerator, brake, on, off, on, off. You should consider doing a special segment just on how to drive an EV efficiently and smoothly. You're the expert. Cheers!

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks!! Yeah good idea!

[@ewald3730]

Good point, but I think that a manufacturer should design a car such way it does not invite these driving styles. Not all EV’s trigger this, so its possible.

As Thomas said, Hyundai has done what VW should have.

[@Jupiter8Boy64]

exactly, German manufacturers are old fashioned, especially the VW-group brands. Look at Audi and BMW, man, they only update their cars, totally afraid that the new models won't be liked by the customer.

[@josefv-y8m]

@@Jupiter8Boy64 ???? the Ioniq simply looks aged...like from back to future coming from the 1980th...the Lancia Delta is looking same...this is simply good old italian design from the 80th ...whereas the ID4 has a new design. If you like this new design is a different question.

[@MaximilianvonPinneberg]

@@Jupiter8Boy64 BMW only update and are afraid of change? Have you seen their latest crop of cars. Also the established Germans have more to lose if they make a bad decision. Relative newcomers with no heritage like Hyundai have a much freer rein to try something more experimental. Sadly all I see when I see this are a mish mash of the designers' favourite cars from their past. A bit of Fiat Ritmo, a bit of Golf 1, a bit of Avantime, perhaps even a touch of DeLorean. However the car has none of the elegance of a Giugiaro design and in the flesh it looks bloated and a bit squat. Much like teh sketches for the Austin Allegro and what came to fruition after the engineers had tinkered about with it.

Great review of a ground breaking car. I certainly love the look of the exterior and particularly love the interior, especially the cream colour. Why are other manufacturers still insisting on pure black interiors? They look like coffins.

[@MaximilianvonPinneberg]

The only colour you can get with a Hyundai in uk is black apart from this model for example. However lots of other manufacturers offer light interiors. Volvo, Mercedes, Honda, Mazda, etc etc.

[@TL-xw6fh]

I just received notice that my Ioniq5 AWD is scheduled for production coming Tuesday, and hopefully make its way over to Germany by mid January. I really can't wait anymore.. and all those favorable reviews drive my Vorfreude to yet unknown intensity. The only thing that bugged me is the little choice with colors.. most other Hyundai models offer some bright blue or red choices, only the Ioniq5 is limited to grayscale and weak pastels, so I will have to foil wrap mine when it arrives. Can't drive any car that isn't blue like the bavarian sky ;-)

[@242Evangelion]

Got my Ioniq 5 some weeks ago. Yes, the lack of colours is so boring. Wanted to go for a bright blue or "Thomas blue" but only 50 shades of grey. So Cyper grey it was. Got the RWD Advanced and love it. Much car and functions for the money. But a few things are very negative about it. No rear windscreen wiper blade, it gets so dirty on Swedish winter roads you never see out of it. You have to use a cable for Apple CarPlay. My little Honda E has it wireless and it came last year. Small things but a lovely car. You will enjoy yours!

[@WooShell]

@@242Evangelion The lack of rear window wiper has gathered quite some criticism already.. perhaps Hyundai will reconsider and offer a later upgrade at some point (or the aftermarket industry will). I don't see much use for Android Auto for me yet, so the cable doesn't bother me much. But since the car does have bluetooth, this could be upgraded via software later on.

[@242Evangelion]

@@WooShell I think it is the KIA or some other Hyundai car that has the rear wiper hidden under the rear spoiler. Later models have to have it. At least on a Porsche 911, you get the option to have a rear wiper for 200 €, worth it.

[@WooShell]

@@MaximilianvonPinneberg I've been driving BMWs for the last 20 years, and I already had an i4 pre-ordered, but after test driving a few other EVs, I realized that BMW is still too far behind other manufacturers that I couldn't justify the 50% higher price. We'll see what happens in the next three years, perhaps I'll get one when the lease for the Ioniq5 ends.

[@sshlyk]

Solar roof probably shows 19731 Wh (19kWh). It uses comma to visually separate thousands, it is not decimal.

[@autogefuehl]

Yeah that was tricky

[@HackAttackx10]

in Germany they use a comma and not a period to separate decimals, so we don't know how much time it has been out and about, but let's do math. They say the solar roof will add 1240 miles per year to the car which is the estimate I found when searching online. So if you say you can get 259 miles on 77.4 KWh battery (awd), that means it would take the whole year to get 347KWh. If you divide that by 12 you get 28.96 KWh per month (this will be higher in the summer and lower in the winter). So that car would need to be outside for the last month roughly of November to get 19KWh. So it is possible it's 19KWh, which is very cool for a car

[@bjrnutgard7271]

Nice review as always, Thomas! Looking forward to the EV6 review! By the way, the accumulated energy generation from the solar panel was 14 kWh, not 0.014 kWh (it can be confusing with comma vs period used as decimal vs 1000 separator in English). Still not a ton of energy but could be relevant for those living in generally sunny areas.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks Bjorn!

[@abraxastulammo9940]

So if 943 kWh is spent according to 10:06 and 14 kWh generated, this is roughly 1.5 %.

[@bjrnutgard7271]

@@abraxastulammo9940 I guess you calculated with 22.8kWh/km and 4137.5km? Yeah, that makes sense, and I would guess that this car has probably been used mainly during October-December, which means low solar radiation = low power generation and low temperatures = high consumption, and probably for quite a few longer test drives = little time for recharging with solar. During the summer in e.g. southern California I would not be surprised if commuters doing 10-20 km per day with outdoor parking could do 50% of their daily driving with solar. But, curious how air conditioning would impact that figure, as leaving the car in the sun would naturally lead to higher air conditioning loads...

I’m currently driving a 2020 Ioniq Ev, is a great car, however, being 1,89 m tall I have no headroom and driving position is too low for me. As previously mentioned I’m debating between the Ioniq 5 and ID4, however, in my area ( Toronto, Canada) you cannot test any of this two cars or even to see it in a showroom, so only option is to place a factory order for any of this two cars and wait probably at least 6-8 months. In your opinion between this two cars witch one can give more headroom for my height 1,89m and a higher driving position, considering price wise are similar. Thanks again!

I was really surprised when I saw the Ioniq 5 at a car dealer, this is one of the VERY few cars that actually look like a radical concept. I hope that this means their Vision 74 concept will, in one way or another, also be realized. Just sad that it will likely be a EV and not use their 2.0l engine and DCT; I own an i30N FL and the DCT is just incredible, aswell as the handling; far better than the Golf GTI and despite all that far cheaper with better warranty (and likely better reliability).

Correct, it is nearly 20 kWh in total. Depends really on the country you live in if solar roof makes sense. Most likely in italy, spain, greece and so on it does make sense. Great Britain for example it does not. Panoramic roof would be a better option then or just save the money.

I think Ioniq5 and EV6 are both good EV's. Exterior wise KIA EV6 is the more coventional looking. Most likely conservative people will like it more. Ioniq5 is retro style, at same time futuristic looking with more open interior space. If you want more the spaceship design where you are integrated in your command central rather than open loft design then go for EV6. It's not better or worse, just a matter of personal preference.

I thought it was only me. I agree with the Tesla autopilot. I drove a model 3 round trip Las Vegas to LA and it works great. I drove also a model 3 round trip Frankfurt to Berlin and it was terrible. The system couldn't decide what to do. In the end I just used it to follow the car in front of me. I somehow get the feeling Tesla calibrates the system differently for the EU. I think this has to do with the higher average speeds and sharper corners with those speeds. In the US interstates they are more straight and slower average speeds.

[@outsider_within]

Tesla has actually been forced to nerf its autopilot in Europe due to EU legislation. If I remember correctly this happened in mid-2019. I had my model 3 before this and I felt the difference right away. The capabilities are still there in the software, and we're supposed to see updated legislation in 2022, but who knows with these things... Ghost braking is another matter, but for me this improved greatly a year or two ago.

I thought that your video gives a proper review of this vehicle. Best features for me would be the looks, comfort and price. It's a real competitor in the EV market. It won't hurt Tesla sales a bit but just adds more choices to EV buyers. I've enjoyed my 3 LR for a year now and it's faster with superior software and is more efficient. The supercharger network takes it to another level of convenience. Instead of going to the gas station and getting gouged by big oil, I now do my food shopping while getting charged. I never had a car whose auto functions are so in sync with what I wish. The only disappointment is I don't get to use it enough cause I'm retired and life has slowed down considerably.

19731 Wh right not 19.731? It's a comma or am I wrong?

[@autogefuehl]

probably yeah, tricky , vs .

[@S7tronic]

Great review, thank you. I am torn between the RWD version and the ENYAQ iV, both I have taken short test drives in, preferred the Ioniq, however I can spend between 4-6 hours driving some days, so which do you think has the most comfortable/supportive seats? Dankeschön 👍

[@autogefuehl]

compare it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJ6sZaKsq5ufY7s

[@autogefuehl]

seats are better in the enyaq

[@douglaslin6190]

I had a test drive in this car. We almost ordered one, the only problem was the boot space. Unfortunately for a family with two young children, the size of the trunk was unfortunately too big of a trade off.

[@kyyla1234]

You can move the rear seats forward though. The kids won't mind with the huge leg room available, and you have a larger boot.

[@joetacchino4470]

Thanks for this feedback. I got this impression from watching a bunch of videos.

[@douglaslin6190]

Yes but by moving the seat forward you get a gap. Where things might fall in. Also, you don’t get any cover over this small gap.

[@Astke]

How much do you take with you? I come from a family of four and we always managed to go on long trips with boots like in the 3 series (2014 model) or Ford Mondeo. Heck even a Volvo V40 did the job, barely. The Ioniq 5 even seems like overkill. I have got an EV6, and it feels like it has so much space that I'll never use.

[@Danne89]

You should watch Björn Nyland banana box test of this car. It's bigger than it looks.

[@황혼-l2s]

Thank you for the review.

[@narcsba]

You said this one isn't the best EV in the market, could I know your 5 best EVs for a price range max of lets say 50k with VATS included if you were after a Family EV of at least 400km WLTP and forgeting about acceleration preformance?

What happened in the middle? I heard you breaking the speed limit while measuring the trunk space. 🤣

[@autogefuehl]

KZbin bug. Hope it is fixed now!

[@Chrilleize]

Hey! Nope the sound is still off to the video.

Did you review the Kia EV6 yet Thomas.

[@autogefuehl]

Not yet sadly because Kia Germany wont give me a car because i speak English 🤨

Isn't 19731 Wh 19,731 kWh?

[@autogefuehl]

Yeah the , . Issue

[@abraxastulammo9940]

Car should switch to kWh, Wh are only good for charging your mobile phone.

Thomas, sind es nicht 19kwh statt 0,19kwh? In the USA wird das Komma ja als tausender Markierungen genommen. Nichts desto trotz ist das Solardach natürlich nur ein Gimmik

[@autogefuehl]

Ja, das ist wohl so, war etwas verwirrend sorry =) Ja genau, es bringt trotzdem nicht viel, es lohnt net wirklich, es sei denn, du wohnst in Texas und das Auto steht den ganzen Tag in der Sonne

Great review. Hyundai should have rebranded this can as Ioniq brand and removed all Hayundai badges.

[@gentlestorm]

With those reclining seats, a shame there is no panoramic roof..

[@pwelele]

I'm waiting for xpeng P5

I have panoramic roof on my IONIQ 5 in Sweden.

This review is a bit odd. Audio and video don’t match in some places.

[@autogefuehl]

In which way? Its perfectly in sync

[@howieb71]

Good review but yes it started going out of sync for me around the 9:35 mark.

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks again, I re-checked. Seems to be a KZbin bug since the original file is completely fine. Trying to restore it somehow...

[@autogefuehl]

hope it is fixed now

[@somehowimanage3902]

Did Thomas just said “hashtag capacitive bs”? 😆

[@damo5701]

Styling reminds me more of a lancia delta integrale than golf 1.

[@sebpipeu600]

One of the best reviews. Unfortunately, the I5 is in Germany not available with animal free seats, if higher trim levels are choosen. It's a shame. We will probably cancel our order.

[@autogefuehl]

Cheers! Yes indeed. Either base fabric seats or go for the EV6: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6PThGZnZsqgd7M

[@sebpipeu600]

Thank you for that advice, Thomas. Kia does a good job. The EV6 is a nice car and these microfibre seats look really nice. I really adore the design of the I5. It's a dilemma.

[@autogefuehl]

yeah true.
