[@greatstoneplanet]

@@codezalo5773 I like the look of the I6 and it seems like they've made some advancements over the I5. I still prefer the crossover size. Miles per kilowatt hour vary a lot based on environment. Cold weather and EVs don't mix at all, but I'm down here in Texas. It only reaches the 30s and below for a few weeks out of the year tops. If I was back up in the mid-Atlantic where I'm from, I'd have some really rough mornings. However, there are more public fast chargers there than here. I have a 150 mile roundtrip drive to my office. Right now (May), if I charge to 100%, I get back home with about 42%. In the winter, I'd come back home in the teens.

Personally, I like the retro 80s hatch look of this vs. the Kia EV6. That said Scotty best advice here is to wait for prices to come down. The point about commuting and charging is also important because if you can charge at home range and charging time only matters on road trips. Also, a point about price, I just saw a Jeep commercial, $60k+ for a Grand Cherokee and over $80k for a Wagoneer. Prices in general are insane, but people are still buying.

Ioniq5 AWD Limited owner here. My first EV and best car I've ever had. This vehicle is built on Hyundai's new from the ground up EGMP platform. It's an 800 volt system which is quite rare and unheard of for this price range. This means it can be charged extremely quickly. Not to mention the performance of the platform is capable of approximately 600 HP. My particular car has 320HP and 446LBs of torque which is good enough for 0-60 in less than 5 seconds. Some have hit it in as little as 4.5 seconds. Soon Hyundai will reveal the N version of this vehicle which will hit 0-60 in less than 3.5 seconds.

[@jerrycarter1928]

For EVs, you need to put ceramic window tinting to help cut UV and IR rays into the car - this will help the AC from having to work so hard. This is especially true when the car has to sit outside not running for a while. The tinting does not have to be a dark tint, a 5% tint works as long as it is made to reduce UV and IR.

[@Mikgwerd]

I have owned an EV for about 18 months now. No gas stations, rarely a public charger because I charge at home overnight. I can control the charging preferences from my phone.

I'm just not sure what the attraction is these days for an electric car.

[@FromG2eminor]

I'm with you.

[@JustinShidell]

Part is cost, part is features. There's a lot fewer moving parts. The service manual for an Ioniq 5 literally says to check the fluids at 30k, 60k, 90k, and 120k miles. It has a 77.3 kWh battery; at $.10/kW electricity prices, that costs a little less than $8.00 to fill up completely at home. $8.00 buys less than two gallons of gasoline right now.

[@mikewalters3048]

@@JustinShidell I would not drive a gas guzzler. I don't know why most people would buy an electric car, worry about the limited range, and then on a trip, where to recharge. If I were driving 10 miles a day and had a recharger in my garage, I might consider it if I got a good deal on the car.

[@JustinShidell]

@@mikewalters3048 Sure, that's fair. I actually think the ideal scenario for most families is an EV and a traditional (or PHEV) vehicle. 95% of the time is running errands in-town, like groceries, sports, dentists and doctors, shopping, etc. EVs handle that so easily, and you always have a full tank, and it's cheap. Want to tow? Go roadtripping? Go off-roading or adventuring in non-urban areas? Take the gas vehicle. Although, with Ioniq 5 being able to charge in under 20 minutes (assuming you have DCFC available nearby), even roadtripping is a reality. It's only really a pain if you live and/or are traveling to an area without infrastructure (yet.)

[@Velodynamic]

Another pros having a more "normal" acceleration I think is that moving parts in the car's propulsion construction are more likely to last longer then on a "racing" car.

[@robertreynolds8092]

I had a Mach E on order and Ford jacked up the price by 2K. They refunded my money and I picked up an Ioniq 5. I charge at home on a 220 circuit. I do not have to change oil. I practically never go to a charging station but the 3 times I was at one I never spent more than 20 minutes. I will ever buy another gas car. I get 188 miles range at 80% in winter, 222 miles in summer.

[@wojtekspc]

Yeah, oil change is like what 40$? Yes, buy 53k $ electric to avoid oil changes, makes sense. Plus wait till they jack up electricity price, you gonna go back to V8 in no time.

[@SkaBob]

We recently got the Ioniq 5 AWD, those come with a larger battery and a heat pump so range is actually better than the base RWD. And with 325HP (instant HP, no downshifting or torque converter slippage) now that will put your head back against the headrest. We had a PHEV before this but in the winter it ran the gas motor so much so the heater would work it's was just a hybrid and the EV mode wasn't really EV mode.

I'm not crazy on running Quakerstate oil for next 3 year's, but my mpg I'm getting is 35city 45 hwy with A/C on as well living in the desert. I made a great buy for $28k. I got it fresh off the boat literally made in Mar. 17 2022 and bought it on Friday the 13th right off the truck no test drive w/14 miles on it, because they were selling them before they came in.

[@JoseDiaz-rd9fh]

I'm not opposed to electric cars I just wish we would have let them integrate into society more gradually. Someone really needs to come out with a way to convert all these combustion engine cars into electric cars as well. I'm not big on global warming like those idiots bleeding our country are. But being responsible with our resources is practical and good. I would think that eventually we will get to the point where we are swapping out battery packs out of cars and pickups. What most people don't realize is once electric cars become mainstream. We're going to be taxed into Oblivion. Not only will there be a tax on electricity but you will be having to pay tax on every mile you drive. That Legislation has already been approved to some degree

Scotty, I know you've been down on electric and hybrid cars, and with good reason. It is good to see that they are improving. I expect them to keep improving. Remember the 1972 Mustang with a 351 (5.8 liter) 2-barrel that got 164 horsepower? My Honda Fit has 135 horsepower! We all thought that pollution control would kill high performance. Now the lowly 1.5 liter/ 90 cubic inch Honda Fit get 1.5 horsepower per cubic inch! The Ford 289 ci. Hi-Po 289 with its solid lifter cam, 4-barrel carb, and dual exhausts could only manage 271 horsepower. Quite an improvement IMO!

Don't buy most other cars, including premium cars like benz, bmw, jaguar, land rover, bentley... and so on. Because there's at least 1 car among the bunch that does the same thing.

According to a recent study, roughly 20% of EV owners in California turned their vehicles in and returned to gas, citing the difficulty of getting a full charge. Plus Californians were instructed last year to avoid charging during peak usage hours because the electric grid simply can't handle it. I don't think the country is switching to EVen masse anytime soon.
