[@danf8047]

I love how Hyundai's not afraid to try controversial designs.. i mean it does look like a stretched higher wagon like a volvo but I still like it.

[@Enforcer_WJDE]

Hyundai doesn't really have any design...that's the problem. No identity.

[@popsandbangs8858]

@@Enforcer_WJDE wooooow very true you know nothing about designs cause Hyundai Kia and specially Genesis have the most design language ever than before.

[@Enforcer_WJDE]

@@popsandbangs8858 ...which they keep changing every model year...

[@chrisr267]

​​@@Enforcer_WJDEI actually like that better than companies shoe horning the design into every vehicle they make, either making them look all the same, or ruining a good design by forcing other model design elements. The worst offender of this is Mercedes. Now all Mercedes look exactly the same, with only the size being different.

[@joelbaker2172]

​@popsandbangs8858 no he's right. Hyundai completely changes its design language every 2-3 years.

[@wickiss]

Very strong Volvo V70 vibes from the rear. Another great looking EV from Hyundai

[@hder9]

like Honda CR-V

[@vincentnb]

My thoughts exactly

[@xxFireFox86xx]

I had the same thought. I'm not a big fan of the design. I'm more interested in that Pontiac Aztec looking thing in the background.

[@pewpewpower]

Not a fan of the proportions looking from the rear quarter panel.

[@alejandroferretis3345]

I was just thinking that...

[@ARCNA442]

It's impressive seeing what Hyundai Group is doing in the EV space while all the other traditional manufacturers are floundering. Electrification is shaking everything up and the Koreans are shaping up to be one of the winners.

[@xiondFirst]

Yeahhh EVs are great but they are so expensive they are out of my range.

[@67keyakaren68]

Ah yes let’s enter the EV market where Hyundai and Kia need 20k off and a $7500 incentive to sell and still lose money

[@tylergasswint6976]

@@xiondFirstused Kia EV6’s and Hyundai Ionic 5’s with relatively low miles can be found in the upper $20,000’s and low $30,000 range.

@@PotatosPotatoes Temu is chinese. More like Samsung Volvo.

[@Ziuralex]

I actually really dig the way you guys are reviewing this. It's like we're finding out about the car with you at the same time

[@dxcheong]

The Calligraphy trim is really nice. I’m impressed.

[@htspringhiker]

Interesting, was watching the review on Car Scene Korea and they were able to open up the bottom of the frunk to show a much deeper storage well with bag hooks available on the rear wheel drive model. Thanks for the 411!

[@bow3i]

Absolutely love the Hyundais of this generation, ngl. If I really wanted one EV, the Koreans have got my vote

[@nationalwalker11]

A very synchronized release by all youtubers exactly at 8 pm. First time ever!

[@Fabulousprofound168]

Or 5pm if pacific 😅

[@jadentetzlaff1108]

We got electric cyberpunk 2077 vehicles in real life before GTA 6?

[@brokeboy87]

This is probably the most preem SUV built in a while by Hyundai.

[@aboutface102]

It's hard to make what's basically a minivan look good, but they did it

[@RobbieFitzgerald]

The Carnival looks good too. HMG designers are pretty great.

[@MrSweetPrince]

Can't believe I'm saying it, but I like this just like the ionic 6!

[@ForzaDriven]

I really like the design

[@uGotGot1618]

Actually love the back half of it. Very cool

[@allenmovies]

I can't wait to see the Genesis production version of this eventually!

[@allenmovies]

The Hyundai Group makes the most interesting cars in the auto industry right now!

[@joelbaker2172]

Nope

[@audioisgood]

Hyundai is making cooler shit than JLR. Take my money!

[@kylev.1163]

I'll admit I'm not fond on the design much, I think it's because of the wierd fender eyebrows; but I very much respect hyundai being so bold by bringing radical designs that break the mold of boring SUV.

[@Filaf]

That’s 100% minivan design. And I love it. Well done 👏👏

[@TheStraightPipes]

I want sliding doors!

[@cypvh74]

I wish it was a minivan. Needs more cargo space and sliding doors.

[@GlitterGuru]

My Ioniq 5 has a similar sliding console, I love it

[@joelbaker2172]

Looks like it's gonna rattle really bad.

[@popsandbangs8858]

I can't believe i was wrong about saying it's will look horrible and now here is it : simply gorgeous.

[@PotatosPotatoes]

Say you're blind without saying you're blind.

[@growingup4487]

looks like backround NPC car in a futuristic game

[@popsandbangs8858]

@ true

[@davids1816]

The best way I can think of to describe this is Daft Punk in the front and Volvo in the back. Which is a strange sort of mullet. I don't like it, but I like that Hyundai is willing to build something this goofy.

[@tbbbo]

I like the sort of throwback styling on the rear lights. Like how back in the early 2000s there was no coloured plastic for the lights and the lights themselves were coloured

[@Jose_cab]

This thing is nice and as a 2023 Hyundai calligraphy owner this thing looks like it has even more room specially the trunk. It looks massive but I just want a Tahoe and better a suburban with my 3 boys just getting bigger and needing more room for their things.

[@henrikhook.]

Looks very good 👍🏻👌🏼 (Performance package model), good development and design work again from Hyundai!.👏🏻😉

[@michaelkobylka749]

Volvo rear end

[@llbpll]

Exactly. Like an early 2000s V70

[@RONderluck]

I disagree

[@popsandbangs8858]

Not really but yes

[@lmc333]

Totally stole that from Volvo from the C pillar rearward....a mix of XC90 and 90s Wagon

[@SZ1MUSIK]

Yea what's up with that same designer?

[@davidle_nz]

Side/rear view looks like a Volvo stationwagon 3:41

[@outthereJCH]

I'm. Sold. The amount of room in the 3rd row is the biggest concern I had for a 3-row EV, and this is the first one that's (should be) reasonably priced and fit adults in the rear. I drive a Palisade, and this is the first EV SVU I've wanted to switch to. Worth the wait. I hope KIA sold enough EV9s because this is way better. Thanks for the review guys!

[@kaviousmanley6358]

Def looks like a Volvo rear end.

[@X똑똑똑X]

아유? 차이나???

[@keiserious]

From the side angle, it looks like the funeral home casket carrier wagon😮

[@TheStraightPipes]

Hearse

[@CharlesBojangles]

Looks much better than the Santa Fe.

When an old Volvo V70 with old Honda CRV is mixed together and reimagined for the modern day.

Looks interesting for sure

[@anthonybugge5220]

The button is on the black trim around the plate to the left side

[@ilkerYT]

They dont limit their car designers and thats what we love to see in the car community, ( not the way bmw and merc eqs eqe gone thru )

[@TheUnreadableUser]

Hyundai has had a streak recently of incredible looking fronts, and controversial rear designs. Personally, I dont like the back. But it's better than the Santa Fe. Great video guys, very glad to see you guys getting invited to pre production reviews 👍🏻

[@hamishmmc]

Love this style video you guys smash the live / vlog style

[@ronaldcampbell17]

What is that other car in the background?

[@TheStraightPipes]

Fuel cell concept

[@MrInternFTL]

Damn, even Doug DeMuro did a video on it already too

[@LoopAzA]

2:40 this is a Volvo

[@julialefkowitz7234]

fell in love again with u guys after the v10 m5 video

[@221ddj]

The taillights are Volvo-esque. The overall design is cool, I would definitely opt for this over the EV9. The Telluride was nicer than the Palisade though, so good job Hyundai.

[@Jayakumarkpable]

Old R-Class vibes towards the back when viewed from the side. Nice to see different/new designs.

[@dbeckMSP]

Separate rear turn signals and a rear wiper?? I’m basically sold. Weird about the tail gate, hopefully more details soon. This spec looks so good

[@dorianjorgensen7677]

[@Fabulousprofound168]

Rear end is more Volvo than Volvo’s EX90 🙃

[@PriitKaru]

These are some strong Volvo shoulder lines and rear lights right there. Blur the eyes a bit and this could be a modern V70.

[@Pandaliciousness]

Omg are the boys here in LA ? Crypto arena ?

[@TheStraightPipes]

Yes sir

[@kcalebwalters]

Not crazy about its exterior, but if it comes in significantly cheaper than an R1S or Cadillac Vistiq, this will be my top contender. Presumably it will be similarly priced to an EV9, which I like the interior and tech much better on this Ioniq 9.

[@gerryaustin8687]

Cant wait for yall to drive it

[@chrunilee459]

This will look sick with a "anime" style car paint job. Deffo V70 vibes too on the rear circa 1996

[@TeslaKing-f3u]

It's funny to see the jealousy and aggressive comments from various car dealers. 😅

[@lennartniehof7649]

[@billyjean2905]

It's very unseen design overall... I gotta see this in real life to say about this, but it feels fresh and someone can say it's weird.

[@justaguyfromreddit]

looks so good, damn I'd love this one

hmm, yeah, more EVs with 3 rows, I say yes! and native NACS is very cool.

[@paolo4002]

Man, Hyundai does a good job !

[@alexmaclean1]

The brake light thing guys I believe is because you have to have separation from the high mount light from the 2 main ones, leaving some leds off during braking was a free way to do that while having the solid bar for the lights

[@GON-lu4me]

The front looks very nice, the rear reminds me of Volvo/Polestar.

[@markcoopers1930]

Considering a Chevy Tahoe starts at 60k for two-wheel drive and can go all the way up to 100K, this seems pretty reasonable considering it'll be used the exact same way by 99.9% of buyers. Only third owners And beyond of Chevy tahoes are trying to max out the towing capacity

[@mikesevgarage]

Love the front end! Not a fan of the Volvo rear end. Should be a solid contender either way 😊

[@ariesyana]

They could've name it santa fe electric but ionic 9 makes perfect sense.

[@kingsmiles1]

have the boys ever drove a right-hand-drive car?

[@TheStraightPipes]

Yes there’s a few reviews on our channel

[@polleyjw]

It looks like this has the same problem with the 360° camera that the Kia’s do: things that are close look WAY TOO CLOSE. That makes it hard to use in a parking lot.

[@JoeGo101]

NACS is great but its on the wrong side lol. They never get that shit right. It should be Driver rear or passenger front. Do they even do their research?

[@theodorev666]

I love how similar they are to KIAs but look nothing alike. I'm more of a Kia guy, had the 1st gen soul, most beautiful car I've ever owned 😎

[@teddysdadcory]

It’s hideous! But you guys are awesome 😎 I’ll keep our gorgeous EV9 all day long

[@PresidentJackBauer]

Looks weird like a van. But not too bad. Repairing the rear and quarter panels and fenders to make it look like before an accident will be a nightmare.

[@calex7991]

It could have been cooler 😎 if the IONIQ 9 symbol in the back light up when breaks are pressed....

[@jwheels9876]

Best thing about this truck is you'll be able to get it for $20k less in 6 months when nobody is buying it
