#hyundai #ioniq6 #ev - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
I don't mind the back end at all. Looks cool
totally agree. I think the real cool part is the back
Taste is a weird thing. Fortunately, this is different for everyone, otherwise we would all be driving the same shaped car. I think the car is very nicely shaped. Hyundai did a good job!
I actually like the whole look of this car. And yeah, love the lane centering on the new G90. Like you said, they separate it from the automated cruise control. Very nice.
FYI. Bought an Ioniq 5 a year ago from Platinum Hyundai in Tracy CA. We did pay $3K over sticker at a time when Bay Area dealers were charging $5K to $10K over. But we also got a much higher trade in on our 10 year old car than expected. So that was a wash. Most importantly, the transaction was completed in a total of 12 text messages after which the dealer drove the car 100 miles to our home and picked up our old car. They hooked me up with blue link and EA and everything Just Worked. Definitely a much simpler buying process than any other car I’ve bought before and also simpler than the stories shared by my many friends who have purchased Teslas over the years. And it supports Apple CarPlay.
Styling is very much individual taste, but I think that the I6 Is distinctive and elegant. It really looks great in red with black trim 😮
More EV choices is a good thing. I'm looking forward to the possibilities on the lower end of the price spectrum, hopefully.
Awesome job showing off what the engineering actually end up feeling like when you drive it. Very easy to follow and imagine due to extensive examples and comparisons. Very nice to listen to.
Side looks like a dolphin, back like a weird barracuda. 😅
Front like Gilligan, from Gilligan’s Island.
Looks like a Porsche. Goodnight Tesla 🤓
Hahaha
The look of the car is awesome from front to back
I love how unique this and the ioniq 5 look. Seeing the evolution of this car will be interesting considering that Hyundai likes to refresh their vehicles every 2-3 yrs
Kyle, another reviewer showed the ioniq6 comes ready with plug in charge, is under EV settings
I like that you sit a bit higher. Getting in and out of low cars is not fun for many. BTW I love that you went in to the motor/clutch information. I would want the aero wheels, the others are just way to much of a compromise IMO. I wish the 20"s were a stand alone option.
I like that you sit higher too, but height can be an issue and everyone has there own preference. In theory, the 18 inch wheels can be put on the higher trims, but who knows how well it would drive since it was likely calibrated for the 20 inch wheels.
I personally would pick an Ioniq 5 over the 6. At about the same price + HUD + larger trunk space + very unique look, Ioniq 5 seems to be a better value for money!
If you live or spend time in an area where you do not have as much charging available seems to be where the 6 would stand out. (like where my family lives in NW central MN.
The problem with the i5 is that more a cuv size vs a VW golf size, that's what kept me from buying one.
Ioniq 5 makes sense if you need the extra space or don't care about the difference in range. Personally, I would say that if you prefer the top trims of cars, get the Ioniq 5, but if you normally get the base trims with the bigger battery get the Ioniq 6 as it has more features in the base trim and the longest range which is always nice to have even if you don't think you'll need it.
SE to SE, the Ioniq 6 is the better value. Limited to Limited the Ioniq 5 might be a slightly better value. SEL to SEL, it's your pick as they are fairly even.
I agree. The HUD is amazing
Great review! You are one of the few reviewers who throughly breaks down the elements of the ride experience. I was particularly interested in hearing about that for this car. I will be driving it myself soon. Thanks!
You bring so much knowledge and expertise to your reviews. Thanks!
I like the look of the car. Reminds me of an old Porsche. With dual motors it'll smoke any sport sedan at a red light.
Except a model 3 😂
A+ for explaining. Appreciate your efforts.
Thanks Kyle! I have been waiting for this car review. Specifically the 361 mile range version, as a road trip option. Keep it up, love your channels
Kyle mentioned before that range isn't the key on road trips, it's charging. That said the Ionic line is a charging beast and the only car I would consider over a Tesla is the Ionic 5 currently.
@@TheAndrwwJohnson But you have to have dependable chargers and the software has to work - with battery pack talking to navigation. One long road trip in cold weather with I5 and we bought a long range Tesla Y. Comfortable I5 works close to home.
@@terrymattingly6843 I agree Tesla is by far the best, but total range is rarely needed as you're only charging enough to leapfrog chargers.
In the navigation you can select only CCS chargers or you can pick specific networks. I set default in my EV6. It’s very easy. I’m surprised the nerd in Kyle haven’t figured that out.
The route planning actually works based on the configurated filters. Set the filters as suits your needs then the planning will work as expected and for example only consider certain types or brands
Yay! Was looking forward to tthis one!
Looking forward to your winter testing!!
Wow! I've been eyeballing the estimated range, and despite your lead foot the elapsed time, the range only dipped 6 miles! That's incredible.
Shows you how hard I was ripping it before recording 😉
I like the rear looks over the front. Especially considering how rare and unique a ducktail is. How many cars/brands boast a ducktail?
I don't like the front the most but the back reminds me of 80s porsche rear ends. I love it!
I guess Ioniq is going after that retro look to grab their customers. Do yourself a favor and see the 6 in person. I actually liked it more than I thought I would. It's a pretty sexy car while the 5 is more of a geeky badass car in a good way tho.
Hello Kyle, thanks for an other informatively video. I have an original Ioniq electric with the 38 KW battery pack which I love because it is so efficient and as long as I can find a charger 170 miles of range is all I need. I do which the DC charge speed was faster. If sold in the US I'm really interested in the rwd se Ioniq 6 with the smaller battery pack. Do you know if the small battery packs in the Ioniq line have the same charging curve as the large one or does it charge a little a lit faster.
Kyle, you know your stuff!
Great review, that is a beautiful color. The design is polarizing, but I applaud Hyundai for trying to be bold and different. I like the way it looks I think it's an attractive vehicle.
It has been interesting to see people react to the styling. I think the Hyundai Group did a good job making something unique. Each of the vehicles built on this EV platform get enough difference in styling that it makes it seem like something for a certain buyer. Unlike GM, which basically put a new badge on the same thing, this line of EVs really seems to target different buyers. I do think the Genesis version was not high end enough overall, the EV6, EV6 GT, Ionic 5, and this Ionic 6, all seem to have different buyers in mind. I know, the EV6 and EV6 GT are mostly the same, but the reviews I have seen so far say the EV6 GT really does fit the high performance driver profile. Too bad the range takes such a major hit using that performance.
Based on how polarizing the styling seems to be, this might be the Hyundai Group EV with the most discounts once the EV market gets more flooded.
The range hit on the EV6 GT is mostly because of the wheels and tires.
The GV60 is awesome, what do you mean bruh
Hopefully the route-planning charger integration gets better over time, cause thing seems like a roadtrip beast in all all other aspects
I think it’s gorgeous!
I like the auto regen in my VW. It also uses map data, like if your approaching a roundabout.
definitely one of the best ev channels on yt. subs should be 10x (which im sure will be in no time)
I hear a lot reviewers not like the rear of this car but I love it personally this is a sexy car
I own an Ioniq 5 and the buying process was great. The dealer did not charge over MSRP (this is in Jan 2022) and was updated on the progress of order all throught including where my vehicle was. I walked in to take the delivery, signed papers and the dealer ecplained me the car and functions and drove away paying MSRP plus doc fees. I have ordered MYLR in JAN 2023 and so far it is the worst experience ever. No support or customerservice, no answers from anyone from Tesla, No updated info when or where my car is, or will be built, no customer relationship. At least at ICE dealers or other non Tesla dealers, you can talk to a person and have the hassle only for the day u decide to purchase the car with getting all your answers.
I totally agree it sucks that Hyundai doesn’t offer essential or popular features on mid-trim. They only offer in the highest trim unfortunately. In Korea, from the mid trim, you can choose to put vision roof or not.
Also, dealership experience is terrible. In Korea, there’s no markup and you can get cars in MSRP!
Yes, as an EV6 owner the user interface is not easy to learn and it lacks a lot.... As I don't road trip a lot I don't miss route planning. I go to google maps on my laptop put in a route and look for chargers. I can then upload that map to Android Auto and it is available in my car. Pretty ancient technology but works well enough. I learned a quite a bit about my car watching this review........Thanks
Sitting high is a real benefit for those of us who are 5’2”. In fact, it’s essential. I won’t drive most sedans because of the seating position. That cockpit feel is a dealbreaker. I can’t see out. Ruled out Model 3 and Polestar because of it.
Any plans to get your hands on an 18 inch wheel version to see how far you can go in it? That's I think the best value with this EV since you don't get as much space as the Ioniq 5 and then it just depends on whether you need the extra space or not and of course that you like the look of the Ioniq 6 or not.
Good and detailed review, thank you. Why is there a key fob (Tesla has made me a minimalist)? I like the looks and color of this particular model, very sharp. Does the dash have wingtips on either end? Too many buttons/functions, looking forward to a range test.
If you are a "minimalist" Why don't you just take a bus?
Thanks!
Do these new Hyundai/Kia EVs have the Auto regen setting like my old KIA Niro EV? That's by far my favorite regen setting.
I'm really interested in the 70mph range test of the SE RWD (361 miles estimated) and the SE AWD (316 miles estimated), when the front motor is disconnected (Eco). Surprising it would be that much lower.
I doubt it would be that different. I am curious about the 70 mph test as the EPA isn't at 70 mph, but it might be in normal mode.
The bigger issue is wind and outside temps. Great range in summer. Cold? Not as bad as ID4 - but scary uncertain
I like the design, and I'm a car guy so I would definitely take the ioniq 6 over the five.
I can understand why some people would really benefit from robust route planning software. For others road trips into terra incognito are a relatively rare. For myself it isn’t a deal breaker.
I love the back. 90% of cars have a boring rear.
I’m choosing to go for the Ioniq 6 here in the UK. With the colder weather I think it’s important that the 6 comes with a heat pump whereas the 5 doesn’t. Why? I’ve no idea. It’s a £1000 option to have one on the 5. The six is also much better equipped model for model. Having lived for three years without a heat pump in my current car, I know the hit my range takes as the weather cools here.
I also hate the white screen surround in the 5. I find it distracting in bright light and it looks like an early iPad. The Nav in the UK gives you the option to ignore slow chargers. I’m sure an update will fix that in the US too.
Thanks for another superb review, Kyle.
As a ioniq 5 owner I love the regen options, but the biggest flaw is it doesn't remember when you select auto or I pedal. Whenever you start the car it always défauts to 1 2 or 3.
So even though I enjoy auto and I pedal, I often forget to change it and drive on 3 😊
Is 3 full regen?
@@williamgrunzweig571 No i-Pedal is full regen. Then there are 4 other levels and a few auto levels as well
Yeah it's strange that they did this on the 5. Hopefully there will be a software update that will give us auto-lock while walking away as well.
Strange also that the GV60 remembers your settings along with this 6.
@@williamgrunzweig571 it is the highest Regen you can have and not stop the car. Full region will stop the car is the I peddle setting or holding in the left
@@volcalstone According to one post, they said that they were forced to default to regen 3 in thr US as it was the most efficient. I don't know why they would lie about that since it would be really easy to program it. Luckily, hold left paddle for i-pedal and hold right paddle for auto regen so it's not to hard to get into the habit and it stays there until you turn it off.
Kyle, as far as leasing for the $7500 mark down, one can lease the vehicle and then turn around and purchase the vehicle as new so long as it is purchased within 60 days of when the lease was started. Hyundai leases doe not usually have prepayment penalty to buy out the lease. I believe I am correct on these statements. I know I took advantage of the loop hole with a lease.
28:40. Kia Ev6 don't need top trim for blinds pot cameras. Just need tech package on wind trim in The States. I don't think I'd ever go back to a vehicle without them.
I like the styling, but I always struggle with having a trunk instead of a hatch. They could have retained the same rear profile with a proper hatchback, and made it far more practical.
Just read an article today where it looks like the 2024 might be the model to buy. There's a rather huge update in the navigation system and a few things that are supposed to be standard moving forward.
Ioniq 5 owner here. Can confirm the Auto Regen is camera based. It gets disabled when the windshield has frost and snow on it blocking the sensors.
In the market for a Ionic 6 here in Phoenix..I agree, I wish they offered a sunroof and Blind spot indicator in the SEL trim as an option...Like the Convenience package in other Models..I can't justify spending the extra cost to go to the Limited Trim..
No idea what kyle is talking about the looks. I think its a beautiful car. The rear end remind me of the old infiniti j30. And I used to love those.
Did you do a filtering of chargers before route planning?
@Out_of_Spec FYI the newest preconditionning firmware update also changes ipedal. Apparently it's stronger now.
Nice reivew. How do you compare the e-tron blended brakes to the Kia? For me the e-tron blended brakes are really good. Better than other Audis like GT and Q4.
I did not know about the cludge and the permanent magnet engine in front. I ordered the car two weeks ago and this is something that I am torn about. Yes, passively spinning up a deactivated synchronous motor without a cludge takes more energy, so it is a energy saver, however the cludge is something that can break... well, I will see what happens over the years. BTW: Route planning here in Germany is quite good, it routes you to the HV chargers (charging networks seem to be better in Eurpope), it preheats the battery automatically, and with Hyundai you even get a really good deal for the kWh at the charger IMHO.
The striking resemblance to the Citroen c2v 😳
Did you miss not having the HUD? I can't believe the I6 Limited does not have this feature.
You’re a hatchback lover. Nothing wrong with that but the rear of this car looks really good
Kyle astutely says, "when driving a non-Tesla, range isn't your greatest concern, it's charging infrastructure."
I like the back.
seems great,,, the software can always be improved over air
Range anxiety comes from the lack of chargers around at places. Charging anxiety imo is more about the amount of time spent while charging. This car charges fast so it's more of a range thing to me unless you get the base wheels.
Both range and charging anxiety are closely related to both lack of chargers and charging time spent. If electric cars had really fast charging time, range anxiety is no longer an issue. Also, the fact that there are not many charging stations as gas station gives you range and charging anxiety.
Even if charging speed is as fast as putting gas, if there are not enough charging stations, you will have charging anxiety.
Imagine you go on a road trip and have to schedule where to put gas if each gas station is 200miles away.
looks good
28:45 I’m glad the SEL doesn’t have a sunroof. I’m locked out of the Limited because I’m 6’4” and the sunroof lowers the headroom in the front by 1.9”.
It will be perfect, that's why I bought an SEL, although I want some of the limited options
10:00
How about having a pedal for the left foot, to control regen. And not a pedal on the steering wheel.
Honda Sensing has Lane Centering you can activate WITHOUT Adaptive Cruise Control.
Looking forward to your review of the electric Gv70
Wait..Does the Ionic 6 have a “Trunk Delete” option?
i love the back hehe
What dealership did you get access to this? Im also in CO
I always prefer hatchbacks to sedans, for convenience.
Here in europe, the 18" wheels are a free option for the most expensive trim.
Can really hear the bumps in this video. How does it compare to ionic 5?
How's the sound system?
Because the base price in Canada is going to be 54999 it makes the line up to anything that costs under 65k qualify for up to 10k off in federal and provincial EV rebates. 10k off makes it almost reasonably priced for what you get.
Canada's rebate is a purchase price after sales tax rebate, and not a tax credit, so anyone gets the full amount, not just rich people.
If all goes as planned by 2024 the tax credit will be converted to a point of sale discount. Will see how that rolls out in 8 months.
how is the quietness of the cabin compared to the Ioniq5
I'd like to have the Digital Green with black interior. Had to wait more than a year, so...
I test drove the Ioniq 6 RWD SELThe car so like driving a cloud. Hopefully in 2 years I'll get one and maybe some upgrades = ) I had a Mach-E Cal Route 1 but I sold it for more what I paid for and dont ask me why I went out and got a Bronco.... I love it but after driving an EV I kind of regret going back to ICE. The feel of an EV is so smooth and just dives better. Just need to pay a little more off this Bronco and save for a down payment.
the rear is interseting, maybe it would look better in other colours. I see a bit of CLS, porsche, saab design there
What is the regular maintenance cost of owning this car? Like the Model 3? Are dealers marking up the msrp?
Most all dealers are marking this up.
This would be my choice, but until the route planning and charging system in NE WI gets better I am thinking I will need to go with Tesla.
Wirh even the limited trim not having HUD which my wife loves and needs, we went with an Ioniq5 Limited
Does it have an AM Radio
Why can’t I buy the limited with the small wheels! For the extra 46 miles of rated range, I’d happily pay to get those smaller wheels.
I am very heavily considering buying an ionic 6 for my wife. The looks are polarizing but we like them. She wants a nice simple daily, I want something to hypermile on road trips, seems like we could both get what we want.
do the ioniq 6 have a heat pump
Hmm, brake/steering by wire worries me a little, as since its electrical there is a chance that maybe it malfunctions, leaving you without steering or braking inputs vs the traditional mechanical attachments to it.
Any comments?
Sure airplanes and f1 cars have used this same tech for decades now. 👍🏻
@@4literv6 makes me feel a little more confident, would it be logical to have a hydraulic back-up where even in the event of power loss, the brakes would still work
There are so many driving modes when considering regen level, traction control, acceleration, etc. Can you set all modes in user profile so I don’t have to press 4 buttons every time I get into car? This is real competition to model 3 if speed isn’t important.
You start with where it was the last time you drove.
You can change it on the fly with the paddles
@@tomm5936 That's excellent. I wish more EVs did it that way, but putting modes in your profile is better. I didn't like resetting all drive modes every time getting in a Lucid GT. You shouldn't have to do that on a $155K EV. I have the same problem with EQS, but hopefully they can issue an OTA update to improve it.
I'm not sure about the need for I-5 production being maxed I did my usual Sunday morning lot checks and my local dealer had 6 brand new I-5s and one used. I think the tax credit thing is really hurting sales. I know, it is a small sample size but I have seen other posts reporting similar pictures across the country.
You are correct. Lots of i5s sitting on lots.
Still think the Ioniq 5 is a better deal, more room inside and useful hatch. Still not ready to call it a SUV , tall hatchback maybe.
The 6 looks good, perfect for some people who want a sedans.
Still missing low cost EV, the Kona is still to expensive for many.
Sad to see subcompact cars going away this year, no more Chevrolet Spark and Mitsubishi Mirage. Low cost transportation is going away forcing people to buy SUVs
I think it’s mainly you who doesn’t like the back. When I saw it in the UK press studio I found the back looked pretty good.
The headlight lenses could stand to be smaller, but otherwise I like the looks.
On my way to Six flags Magic a week ago i saw a trailer of Ioniq 6 and none of em had aero wheels but i thought they were porsches at first.
really really like this EV...hits all my bells...high quality fit and finish...smooth..quite...great technology....and the looks!...so cool and very different...I have one coming next week with no mark up...I own a Tesla S P90D...and selling it for this....love the charging network with Tesla and software...one of the negative things about Tesla is if you have a minor accident your car is in the body shop for 3-4 weeks because of the Tesla parts availability.....drove a Tesla model 3 for 3 1/2 weeks while my S was in the shop....way too rough ride for me and too bland interior.....can't wait till next week to get my Ioniq 6!
Congrats on your upcoming Ionic 6! Hyundai/Genesis are making some really high quality vehicles these days. I've watched some FSD videos recently on youtube with users in a Model 3 and was shocked how bad the car sounded and looked over rough roads. It literally banged over pot holes like there was no shocks at all. The youtuber was driving on terrible Michigan roads.
I've got my eye on the F-150 lightning. I've heard it rides like an old cadillac, which is my type of comfort driving.
You've mentioned EQS leases at $500/month in a couple videos now, and I'm not seeing that. MBUSA is showing $939/month with nearly $9000 down. What the heck are you talking about?
Imagine if they do a Hyundai IONIQ EV Refresh:
100+ KwH same efficiency (keep the same tech for the aircooling etc.)
Maybe more tech up-to-date
That means 950 KM WLTP if they do a 100 KwH
