I bought a 2018 SEL. It is fantastic. I don't have the great wheels and tires you have on your premium but it does still drive THAT well, and since my commute was long, I don't miss my 2015 Volt.
Great comprehensive review, especially how you explained the benefits of that DCT and the driving characteristics. Your enthusiasm as driver comes through and you speak your mind freely - which is great!!
Great test drive. I live in the UK and have a Hybrid Premium, and it's the best car I've had in 40+ years of driving. I wasn't impressed with the Prius' looks, or fragility, or looks. The Ioniq strikes me as a great middle point and is a Prius for the real world.
I purchased the 2019 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid limited on June 4th 2024.On June 30th 2024 It completely would not start I did call Triple A to jump this type of car I didn't realize there is a button on the side to give a jump to the 12 volt lithium battery in under the rear seat . My best gasoline milage right now is about 50 mpg .My lowest is about 38 mpg I rarely use the speed gear because I don't want to exceed the speed limits to far above I do use the cruise control the only problem I notice this vehicle slows down below the speed I set for cruising.I thought something is wrong .I get better mileage driving faster. Than the average travels around 45 to 55 miles per hour . I can do 60 mph in open by way or highway . It is also depends on traffic conditions .
Seems like a nice hybrid though you'll never meet the EPA mileage stats driving as you are in the video which defeats the whole purpose of the vehicle. Also noting in videos with this car the interior materials/ambiance aren't quite as nice as some of the competition already out there (C-Max, Prius etc.)
Narrow minded idea of what a cars "purpose" is, even if it is eco-centric. I'm amazed how optimized the economy is even when I accelerate hard, perks of a hybrid. And I couldn't disagree more about the interior, it's cohesive and modern and just right for the price.
Damn homie just revving this poor car out. I wouldn’t buy this car to floor it all the time. I could see it not lasting long if he drives it like this often.
Hands down the best review I’ve seen that demonstrates the Ioniq drivability. Greatly appreciate it!

Its not obvious how hard your foot is pressing. Really liked the review though. My 2018 SEL w/ tech package has paddle shifters.
Yeah, I think the SEL and Limited come with then now.
Thanks for letting us know that a person can have some fun in this vehicle and STILL get 30+ MPG. BTW, was the car comfortable to drive?
palmbeachcitizen so comfy!

I disagree with both.

Please please....review a BMW i3. I would love to hear your thoughts on it.
Xklusiv there's a walkaround video of i3 on my channel. I absolutely hate the way it drives
The 0-60 is not 8 seconds, not even close. It's between 10 and 11
