I would honestly like to know why you chose this car over something - anything else. Did you test the Tesla Model 3? Or a pre-owned I-Pace? Because those do everything the Ioniq 6 does but prettier. Do you plan on keeping your 6 long term? Have you considered how much value it will lose with age? I 'm not trying to be flippant or disrespectful. I bought a '19 Model 3 Long Range couple months ago. Love it. I would legitimately like to know why you chose this car.
@@SantinoTruitt Being a person who's gonna buy a Ioniq 6 soon ill give my two cents. A ionic 6 because its sporty looking, and also its not a Tesla. Tesla is EVERYWHERE(in Denmark at least) and dislike the simplistic style of Tesla and the fact they removed the sticks behind the wheel. Ofc Ioniq 6 dropped in price since the video was made but always liked the look of it and the top trim aint that expensive anymore compared to the competionen
@@shinsawai Ok that's cool. Just be sure because buyer's remorse is real. You should ar least test a Model 3 Long Range with acceleration boost. The feeling of driving it is magic. I'm talking about foot on the pedal hands on the steering wheel magic. Unlike anything I've ever driven - including other Teslas. I've driven the Model S P100D and also several Model 3 Performance, and none feel as good as my Long Range. The Model S is too big and slow (for me) and the Model 3 Performance felt slower because of the heavier wheels. The Long Range (with boost) with it's lighter 19" alloys and upgraded speed is just brilliant. The downside of owning a Tesla though is the build quality. It frankly sucks, at least with the older ones like my '19. There are rattles and annoying seam gaps that allow wind noise. I've fixed my rattles so the ride is mostly quiet. Take this to heart: if you change your mind that first year and decide to trade your Ioniq for something else, you will be underwater much more than just your tax and license fees. That car's depreciation is going to be BRUTAL. Figure 6k for tax and license and add another 15k in depreciation. So that's 21K on top of the price of whatever you want to trade for. Fair warning.
I guess you‘ve tested the AWD because the frunk is usually bigger on the RWD and I counted not near the 7 seconds you have had from 0-60, if you drove the RWD…
@everythinginbetween4440 I belive the US version of the RWD has no frunk because of regulations, same thing with why you can't have the camera side mirrors.
Consumer Reports did a review of the "autopilot" systems on a dozen EVs and the Hyundai-Kia-Genesis system ranked at or second from the bottom.Among other things, CR said the lane-centering feature exhibited "ping-ponging" behavior where the car moved from one side of the lane to the other, and occasionally had difficulty keeping within the lane itself!. I wonder if you have experienced this behavior. A followup vid on this would be nice.
I tested out HDA a lot on this and the Ioniq5 as well and actually had a great experience with it. It’s not a hands free system by any means but it didn’t ping pong back and forth when I was using it on the free way. I drove around 200 miles on a weekend using it and it really helped reduce fatigue. It worked well at low speeds in traffic and a over 75 mph.
It's cute, but how does it drive? Looks like they copied Tesla door handles. What about LC/AutoEmergBraking/TrafficAwareCruiseCtrl features? Range? Acceleration looks good, but what are the specs? Handling? Slipping is lost acceleration. Those rims are super UN-aerodynamic, kinda defeats the point of the special "Electric" tires. I think manufacturers load up cars with unnecessary yet vital gimmicks (fancy LCD screens, no gauges, special keys) so they can have some maintenance issues to generate money for dealers later on, since EV's are generally trouble and maintenance free.
People bitch about the Tesla with all the controls on the center pad… there are more confusing buttons, knobs and switches to this car for me… paddle controls for regen?? Really? Why not just one pedal or use the brake? More confusing items…
🤣 The paddles are not to USE the regen braking, but rather to set the mode; the *degree* to which it operates. There are 3 settings for the amount of regen from easing up and braking, together with a full one-pedal mode which will bring the car to a stop. You just ease up the power and/or apply brakes to get regenerative input.
you did not tell us much on actually what it’s like to live with. this was basically like a features list :(
Like RANGE, ease of finding compatible charging stations,
exactly
I drive the Ioniq 6 because I want to. The car looks better every time I look at it, which I know is not felt by all.

just test drove one for my wife. def one of the top 2 we are looking at. its nice!!! ride is great.
Go to 18" tires and your range will take a big step up!
I bought 18" with 225/55 as I think 20" with 245/40 is pure stupidity.
@@bafattvahetere i agree, with 225 hp is nothing to consider for P zero price tag at all
Charge port overheats on Hyundai electric cars, research before you buy.
After how long? And in which conditions? I imagine weather is definitely one of them
I guess you‘ve tested the AWD because the frunk is usually bigger on the RWD and I counted not near the 7 seconds you have had from 0-60, if you drove the RWD…
I thought the exact same that frunk is too small to be a rear wheel drive so that car is actually the awd model.
@everythinginbetween4440 I belive the US version of the RWD has no frunk because of regulations, same thing with why you can't have the camera side mirrors.
All credit goes to none other than the superman Simon Loasby 🌹

This could not be furthur from my experience having owned multiple cars with HDA1 and HDA2.
Would you happen to know by chance what the paint code is for the transmission blue?
You should have just called this a feature review video, you did not add any value, waste of time video.
I love ionig 6
Insane IONIQ 6 !! ❤❤
That the top model that is AWD

Long live US and its brainwire 🇺🇸 and 🇰🇷 joint force accumulated and evolve Hyundai thank you all from India 🇮🇳 🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹love u all
Good video, but you speak too fast !
No pistons in that motor.
😔
