Tragic that Hyundai are discontinuing this car. It seems a complete injustice that one of the most efficient EVs should be continued to make way for a massive SUV like the IOniq5. Hyundai should be keeping this car and improving on it and making it cheaper, not dumping it.
It's all about sales. The Ioniq 5 will sell a lot better and it's a more upscale car. I agree with you though. Tired of SUVs everywhere but it does make business sense to keep bringing more and more of them out.
@@benjaminsmith2287 Hi there :)
I am happy to see you supporting a lot of questions on TH-cam regarding ev choices and and other questions. I’ve seen your comments under a lot of videos 😊👌🏻
I asked you for advice before regarding my choice between id4 and tm3. At the time I had not done any research on Hyundai and I came across the ioniq 5 😍 what a fantastic car that is though.
At the time we spoke I really did not know what I wanted but now I do. I like a car that is a bit more spacious inside the cabin and I like also the comfort more than sportiness and when I test drive the i5 it was phenomenal 👍🏻👍🏻
So I have decided on that car…
However, in Sweden we only have the 72 battery and the delivery of the car takes a long time. Because of the long wait, I actually bought the ioniq electric 28 until the i5 gets the 77 battery here in Sweden and the wait isn’t too long. It is a bit thirstier so I’d want the bigger battery.
As for this review in this newer ioniq electric 38 battery, he actually say that it is quiet while driving… have they made changes with isolation so that tire noise aren’t transferred into the cabin?
That is my only complaint with my 2018 ioniq. It is very loud unfortunately.
There probably will come a new one in the Ioniq line-up to replace this vehicle. Although strange that Kia is continuing with the Niro EV since it is build on the same platform.
Ioniq discontinuing? Nope it’s not
I just purchased this exact model two weeeks ago and I'm absolutely LOVING it so far. My first electric and it's saving me so much money on my daily commute.
The sound system test is always the best part
The old Ioniq electric actually charges a lot faster. Charging to 80% using a 100kW DC charger usually takes 15-20 minutes. It has 40 miles or so less range though.
What a lovely video.
Damn now i must binge watch all your content, so cool setup, amazing voice and information
A very nice car. I must say
Great vid! One small remark, at 8:56 you mention that you can't get a full stop with the regenerative breaks. You can do that by holding the left flipper (where you adjust the regenerative break intensity). Try it out! :) I found out after driving 8000 miles.
Great review on this, it makes for a pretty compelling virtual test drive. I personally love hatchback life, there's so much space when you need it. The Ioniq also looks pretty good imo especially for an electric & overall sounds like a fantastic commuter car to get around comfortably & efficiently. Honestly reminds me of my first Honda Civic EX I bought used in terms of comfortable, efficient & quality, but this time electric. You could drive it like you stole it for a little harmless fun but it was never powerful enough to be too dangerous, and it never failed to get me from A to B.
Some guy managed to chirp his tires while taking off from a stop sign in an Ioniq EV. Pissed off the crossing guard to no end.
I’m crying 😂
@@eden20111 i simply liked this because of your name lol
My tyres squeal all the time in my hybrid model haha
You CAN go to a full stop on regen holding the left steerring paddle! Enjoy!
That's awesome! I saw your comment and ran outside to try it (I have an IONIQ EV). Does indeed work. Just have to remember that I'm not actually holding the brake and can roll still.
Nice video!
You are soo calm and that is awesome!
Like the music choices also.

I have bought this war last weekend while I wait for when the configuration of the trim level of the ioniq 5 will get the 77 battery instead of the 72 that we have here in Sweden.
That sound system is surprisingly good
Love your videos
The Kona tends to steal the thunder of the Ioniq due to its bigger battery pack and subsequently, longer range.
However for most people, the Ioniq EV with its new upgraded pack is far more than enough for majority of daily commutes.
I just wonder when they start Ioniq brand will they put Kona EV under that brand or keep it separated.
We just got our Ioniq EV 3 weeks ago. We prefer the height of a SUV to a sedan, but that Kona is not real SUV, its actually tiny and has less storage and leg room than the Ioniq, but people I guess aren't aware just how much more the ionic offers over the Kona.......other than the added range the Kona provides.....every other aspect we felt the Ioniq has the upper hand, including price.
Ioniq also has much more rear seat room. Kona is just a little to small.
I had my 20 ioniq ev a couple months and it's a beautiful car only problem I'm having is 12 volt battery running down, slight wind noise on highway, I average 230 miles each charge not 170,,I had a17 ioniq hybrid that car was the best 700 miles to a tank on highway can leave it on all day running barely Burns any fuel, wish I got another one, but I got my ev for half price fully loaded so I'm good, got a new 12 volt and I'm curious why don't they put an alternator on electric cars I mean it doesn't have to run constantly only when the car is moving to charge up the batteries and it's not that hard to do so I don't know
@@h.d2404 An alternator is not needed since all electric cars has a dc-dc converter that converts the 400v from the main battery to the 12v when necessary.
And I though NYC roads were bad 😎 Love your reviews Topher 💯👍👍
Hi Topher! Thanks for the great reviews-- How is the Highway Drive Assist (HDA) feature for the Ionic? I heard it is one of the best on the market according to The Straight Pipes.... What are your thoughts? Thanks!
I don’t know if other electric cars do it. But I love the noises for pedestrians at low speeds. I always wondered if being around electric cars was a problem for blind people. Good job Hyundai!
Its mandated for all hybrids and electric cars in the US now
@@brandonlin6126 Thats good to know! Thank you for the information!
@@fanofbama14 you're welcome 😃
This is literally Hyundai's version of the Toyota Prius
Your not wrong
It looks so much better IMO. I like it.
Prettymuch tbh
@@billyhughes9776 the prius prime looks way better
@@alanmay7929 Ha,..well, obviously that's your opinion. Have a good day.
Isn’t there a Lane Keep Assist button to the left of the steering column to easily turn it on and off? There is on the hybrid.
Hey I was wondering how you do this and if I could email you any questions? Love all your vids keep it up
Excellent review!
Very great review!
I own a 2019 Ioniq hybrid and love it. It’s been a really nice car to drive. The lane keep assist and smart cruise control make highway driving a breeze. I like the color of the one you drove.
How manu miles can you drive.. onece you full charge.
@@anuravindra2014 hybrid not plug in...not much range electric only for normal hybrid.
I have been looking to get the ioniq plug in but I think I'm going to wait to see what the ioniq 5 is all about first
It would be cool to see a review of the new Hyundai i20 if you get the chance!
Really loved the video. What was the name of the tune on at 18:50?
I come for the car reviews, but I stay for the 🎶 smooooooth jams 🎶
Crazy deals on them now!
i like the blue gauges makes it really easy to see at night :)
Blue light keeps you awake aswell.
Great review! I own this car here in Korea. It was interesting to see the few little changes from the Korean spec. I also have the top-of-the-line version but the trims are different from the USA. For example, I have vented seats, a heated steering wheel, and a air cleaning filter (a button in place of your fresh air button). Yours has vents for the rear passengers, memory seating, and a sunroof. I don't have the driving assist, that would have been a slightly expensive option. And my reverse noise is different! It's less of a beep than a low chime, and other new Hyundai's here in Korea share the same sound. I've never driven as fast as you... too much traffic here! :-) I'm a little surprised at your low range. I usually charge my car to 80% and the range has shown up to 339 km (210 miles) depending on temperature. Did you have a destination inputted into the navigation? That will lower the shown range if there are hills or freeways. 96% should have many more miles than you show, especially since it's not winter yet. Cheers ~
Hey Mario, do u have an email? I'd like to message u about Korea and Hyundai vehicles! Thanks man
bro great content , can u do Hyundai Azera/Grandeur
At 9:00 you state it can not come to complete stop on regeneration and need to apply foot brake for last bit. Thats not the case. It uses regen all the way but you need to know how and its not intuitive or advertised properly by Hyundai. Basically you need to use the left paddle shifter instead of brake pedal to use regeneration braking instead. you have to hold the left paddle down completely and it will brake like you would if you were hitting foot brake, all the way to complete stop. If you use that paddle shifter to less than 3 miles per hour it will automatically drive it to stop at zero. plus it will hold the car there until you press accelerator, without needing you to step foot on brake at all. Its quite fantastic actually. I only found out because I read the entire manual front to back :)
Ooooo, interesting! Good to know, never would have discovered that on my own 👍
A nice car, but the review is golden 😎
Where did you film this? Noticed the Infineon logo, is this Leominster, MA?
I like the color
Was originally considering the Kona with the long range option but honestly after seeing this, how much cheaper the lease options are and the drive quality, I'm seriously considering this car now!
One of my friends has the Kona. Definitely a nice vehicle and with double the range it works for more folks needs, but if you can charge at home and just need a commuter car this is pretty prefect.
Especially for 2 car homes a ev wth enough range is a good choice.
I am not happy that this car is not available in the Midwest. The charging infrastructure is here and am wondering why its not available here. Does the battery have active cooling along with passive?
Very articulate presentation! Yes sort of prius-like look, but ioniq is still pretty nice car. Way easier on the eye than Tesla models from outside. Inside, I prefer the instrument cluster and physical controls over minimalistic everything on ipad approach of Tesla.
Awesome, useful review!
is the road really bad or the Ioniq is a little rough to ride in?
I'm curious since this is a full EV what the lead acid battery does. Is it to drive the accessories/AC? Or is it just to power the 12v charging ports?
It's cheaper to run all the auxiliary systems from a 12V circuit than to redesign everything to run from the higher voltage main battery pack. As manufacturers already know how to do 12V systems, they stick with the 12V battery and manage its state of charge from the main battery pack.
Ok. I'm sold. This is perfect for my wife first car to drive.
Nice!
the car sounds loud in the video?
Have you done a camaro?
Nice
What colour is that
They are running a $99 a month lease promotion which I saw on TV. This seems like a great car at that price.
Hahahah I saw the same thing man. Not a typical car you see a 24 year old driving but the price is great.
Are there siginificant issues buying this EV out of state when there are no Hyundai EV certified dealers in your state?
This interior looks way better than the chevy bolt
Super car.
A set of P Zero All Season Plus will do nicely on this car 😊
I've got P Zero's on my i30N and they are horrible, considering they were developed for the car aswel. I've decided to sell it and get one of these. Not as fast but lovely and calming to drive.
The battery doesn’t charge faster. In fact, it’s quite slower than the older 28kwh model. You do get a higher range, so for people who don’t intend to fast charge, the slower charge rate isn’t a problem.
Review the camaro zl1 if you haven’t
How much
Does this car has youtube or smart play
Hi. The sound it's not HK. I think it's Infinity
nice
How did you get the CTR for a week? I want to rent one for my dad for his birthday for a few days. Is it just bc you are an auto journalist?
@3 ok thx for input
This car could work in decently hot places.
This car have start/stop?
No, it doesn’t need to start/stop the engine as there isn’t one 😁
Speak about charging, please.
When you have a family and your wife tells you to replace the BRZ with a "smart" choice.
How do you wake up so early
Can you do a 2021 Chevrolet trailblazer RS AWD
He just did the lt trailblazer
Yes but not the RS AWD
@@solderwhite5788 he should do the passport fwd sport then because that’s the exact car that I own and thus I request it on this channel
If you're tech savvy you can install comma ai for like $1100 and get level 2 self driving
Speeding
i'm gonna get one, i recently bought my first car and was scammed. i want to get rid of it and get this.
Seems superfluous now....as Hyundai are discontinuing THIS Ioniq model (and its variants) as of 2022....but for anybody looking to buy one in the "used" marketplace, I recommend watching Topher's reviews of ALL the three variants, namely the Hybrid, the Plug-In-Hybrid and the All Electric. Even though three different power-trains are being reviewed, there are enough similarities across the board to get a much better idea of how this car "generally" drives, handles accelerates etc. Topher's more restrained in his praise of the "Hybrid" (for example) but appears to be a bit more gushing about the "Plug-In" and the "All Electric" I think it was just the mood he was in on each given day...lol...but each variant is essentially the SAME car (battery weights and location notwithstanding etc..) so its worth watching ALL THREE reviews.....especially if you're here merely because you're curious about the "Hybrid" variant!!

Let me hear the sound of the horn, too.
It's a decent sounding two tone
Heute heute wohl noch 2020 GT Racing 2 heute ich bin heute immer noch Donnerstag und Freitag Samstag Sonntag Montag Dienstag 7 Uhr bis 10 Uhr
0:46 "And we have a battery that can charge quite a bit faster." Incorrect, the charge speed in the new model is SUBSTANTIALLY WORSE than the outgoing model. Bjørn Nyland drove both the old and new Ioniqs 1,000km, and accomplished the feat 2 hours faster in the old model.
I can confirm this as well - I own a 2016 Ioniq electric and have borrowed a 2020 over a long weekend. The 2016 is actually better for going long distance as it rapid charges much faster.
0:01 Startup Sound Fast Version
A great people mover
Just hold in the paddle to completely stop the car
The Finnish police just purchased a bunch of these. Not for patrolling purposes I assume.
I came here to hear how car sounds! Damn it’s electric
I was excited UNTIL i saw the grill....
it looks the foil paper after my Tia wraps up a dozen of her delicious Christmas tamales 🤨
Jajaja
😂
Cool but why not get a RWD model 3 for that money, way better range and performance
It's a bit cheaper than the base-model 3 and those base model 3s can be hard to find.
Not very practical for anyone who lives outside the city limits especially with 170 mi range you add in really cold weather and you're probably going to be getting 150 mi range if you're lucky.
the reviewer didn’t check his phone that doesn’t need the wires to be charge .
Could be that he uses Apple car play or Android Auto, that requiers the Phone to be plugged in with a cable. The only letdown of the 2020 Ioniq is the charging speed or lack therof. The Classic Ioniq charges much faster and can actually travel faster on long trips..
N MU km
Hi
It charges slower, and there's no heat pump, you should do your homework before reviewing
not really the best . the dash is way worse then gen1
I think your driving like a loon but then i realise i got u on 1.75x
The chev bolt is better than this. More range
It has laggy acceleration, slower charging times, and a much more stiff ride. They're different vehicles, but with the Chevy's reliability record, I'd go with the Hyundai, which says a lot, I don't love this car.
@@alh06 wdym by laggy acceleration ?! Its faster than any other ev that is not a tesla, even faster than the i3, and slower charging time is bc of the larger battery pack and it has proved its reliability in the past 3 years since the release date
@@mohammadnaser7962 Power delivery is uneven and it's reliability was rated below the competition on Consumer Reports. I have two friends who each bought one, and both transmissions failed.
@@mohammadnaser7962 Reliability isnt proven until its 10+ years old. Literally any car that's not a Land rover or fiat can make it for 3 years.
Im not really of fan of hatchbacks unless it’s Honda
first
No one cares
@@arthurvanwinden9579 I didn't ask for your response, have a great day.
No one cares
@@glenjoji3611 He didn't ask for yours either and you didn't ask for mine. Good day mate!
‼️
That front grill is disgusting eww
You get a fully leather loaded Camry Hybrid XLE or Sonata Hybrid for $3K less. I don't see a point in this car, just another attempt to copy the Prius with cheap gimmicks.
Yeah, but not the same category, this is an EV
If you wanna compare it to the Prius then compare it with the regular hybrid ioniq. The hybrid ioniq beat the Toyota Prius in fuel mileage, so its better
@@brandonlin6126 thats right
