Had my Mach e since Feb 21, Premium 2WD, ER battery. Taking it all in, nothing to complain about. No maintenance, rotate tires at home. Solar at home free, no bill for 4 years.. Used EA once for $7.31. Replaced cabin filter myself at 20K for $19.83. Went back to dealer for free 2nd Key Fab. Looking down the road for the next generation battery. This Mach-E is a winner. Better then what most people own today.
Another difference: the Mach-E has a rear window wiper. Hope the 2024 Ioniq 5 will add one. As for the latter's frunk, I understand that in South Korea it is much larger. The reason for the small one here is because regulations require a "release" button inside in case a child crawled in. Rather than add such a button, Hyundai decided to just make the frunk too small for any child in the USA. Let's hope that also changes. As well as making Apple CarPlay and Android Auto wireless.
Good comparison. Each EV has their own strengths and drawbacks. Mine is a 2022 twin to the one you tested: Cyber Gray AWD Limited. We like to travel and have put over 15,000 miles of out-of-state travel on our 5. There is not another EV I would rather have. It is my first experience with a Hyundai. My evaluation after 14 months: the car is wonderful; unfortunately, Hyundai customer service is dreadful.
Very fair and well done review. I have a 2023 ioniq5 and I am very pleased with it so far. I love the roominess and the open feeling ,and the fact that it doesn’t ride overly stiff. I do agree that virtually all new cars are a bit too stiff for the crummy mid west roads. Definitely do not want anything stiffer than my Ioniq5.
I was going to get an Ioniq 5 but ended up with the Mustang Mach-E after taking it for a test drive and seeing it in person. Its a mean looking car. I love the frunk but two big things for me at the time were Plug & Charge and navigation that automatically added charging stops (and didn't add AC charging to a road trip). Hands Free Blue-Cruise has been such a nice feature. Long highway road trips are so nice. I get to focus more on whats going on around me while riding along. I almost feel like a passenger in a taxi. Wireless android auto and apple carplay were another factor even though I ended only using the built in navigation because its so nice. I also assumed/hoped that Ford would eventully bring TH-cam to the Mach-E and I didn't ever see that happening with the Ioniq 5 sadly. I wanted the Ioniq 5 because of the fast charging, vehicle to load ability, also really nice styling but Hyundai took way to long to announce US pricing so I ended up ordering a Mustang Mach-E. Worth the 7 month wait but man was that a serious wait. This was a great video!
Test drove each in Toronto and love both EV's ! Solid platforms and easy to drive and own. The Mach E won me over but it's definitely more expensive. Lots of small quirks but that's to be expected.
Dont like that huge vertical screen on Mach E, wish they integrated it better with the dashboard. I assume its coming from their attempt to copy Tesla. Its time for EV makers to have their own design philosophy. I really like Hyundai/Kia/Genesis in that respect.
@@BioniqBob the tire are wearing evenly and the vehicle tracks perfectly. Looks like they should be good to 55,000 miles. I see no point taking it in for a rotation
@@BioniqBob only because I was used to doing it in all my previous vehicles. But then I was also used to taking my vehicles for a oil change every 5000 miles. After I replace tires on the Mach E at 55,000 miles, I will see how they are wearing and then decide if I’m going to rotate tires at a specific interval.
It isn't a bonus. It is the great value. If your house has a power outage, it is a great value. You can cook and save your food in refrigerator. You can save the money.
The video is great, but that thumbnail looks really bad and unattractive. Really consider making better thumbnails, because I almost don't click and your video views reflect that. Having a thumbnail that's about 70% purple bars is just so bad looking. Look at what other car reviewers are doing.
Neither, for me is the 2023 Tesla model Y Performance that I just got and that kicks both of these EVs in all parameters, and have no problems with OTA or any other software Issue like these two have, and can give me peace of mind about everything.
Yeah except for things like ride comfort and build quality. A model Y is a great car but it's a joke to pretend it is the best at all things. The reviewers think Mach E has an uncomfortable ride, lol at a MYP
Here are a couple things the tesla does that neither of these EVs do...First the tesla can make FART SOUNDS..Awsome...And the steering wheel on the Teska can come off in your hands..Forgot a bolt..Typical tesla fit and finish
@@GOOBENsticks i also drove it and it was uncomfortable, lumber support pretty poor no matter how i adjusted seats. ford is abandoning low down cars. felt like sitting on a bus. low center of gravity is important when you want efficiency (lower drag), faster speed and better driving position that hugs you round corners. also the cargo space length on a wagon is longer and more spatious then on a crossover. crossovers tend to have small trunks similar to hatchbacks. add a level of cringe on top of that such as inappropriate branding for a crossover and the result is a car im truly not a fan off. i suppose its great if you have a bad back, getting in and out of a car and you want a mustang but your back cant get into low cars, in that case by all means get a mach e.

@@NightRidah777 But a non tesla includes several automakers that are adopting NACs (Hyundai is currently discussing switching as well). You also implied it didn't matter the use case.

I'll deal with 1-3 times a year having to wait at public charging vs driving a worse vehicle for my needs the other 350+ days a year. It doesn't mean Tesla suck, it's one of the best EVs in my opinion, but anyone that values ride comfort will hate a model Y/3. Also, where I live a ionic 5 is much cheaper than a Tesla, a fully loaded ioniq 5 is cheaper than a model Y RWD

Great analysis, guys. Thanks!
@KFergy.. what car do you own… I live in Apopka and am looking to purchase either the Mach e or Hyundai ioniq 5
I love my Mach E. 49,000 miles and the only maintenance has been $20 for a tire rotation at 20,000 miles

You can save the money.
It's a bonus because besides the ev6, no other manufacturer does it
@@vic5721Kia EV6 does too. Maybe the Genesis.
@@33334s yes basically the sister companies
Mach e took 45 mins to charge when I was on highway. Ioniq took only 19 mins from 20 - 80% ... Ioniq for me because it has the 800V architecture.
Question. If Mach e charges at less kw at DC wouldn't that be better for the battery life long term?
No because its thermal management sucks
"If you like squares . . ." LOL! I definitely think the Mach-e is MUCH nicer looking. I havent test driven either yet, though.
I love my Mach e though I still wish the leg space was better I’m 6-3
Thanks for the video and comparisons, but will still go with a Tesla for my first EV in 2024.
Great Video. 🙏
Why haven't you guys compared the Nissan Ariya?
Just over a month ago I drove my 2023 Mustang mach-E home. I received my new insurance premium $250. a month. Very clean record for 60 years.
What was the premium on your prior vehicle?
I would take Kia EV 6 all day better than both of those
I just can’t get passed how ugly the Hyundai looks…buying a Mach E GT today.

You forgot that space Karen’s acting like Alex “chobani makes the frogs gay” jones on x
Don't want either and it's not a real Mustang..
yeah was thinking any mustang true car enthusiasts would be put off by the name
the Mach-E is for people that want a muscle car name plastered on a family SUV, the mach-e is the car definition of cringe.
What's cringe is getting so put off on the name brand instead of looking at the specs and features as an individual product.

then continue to pay Saudi oil then.
