I just purchased one and drove from STH Perth to Busselton, just awesome. So comfortable to drive, the safety aspects are amazing. Yes it’s a little bland looking and certainly doesn’t stand out but for me that was a bonus, I don’t want my car to stand out. I drove past a petrol station and couldn’t believe the queue of cars trying to beat the 27c per litre petrol increase the next day. I arrived at Airbnb and plugged in and 12 hours later 80% battery.
I just got a 2019 Cerato GT. Probably will be my last ICE car so I am glad I got a nice one. As soon as there is a EV in $30k range I will get one, I don't really need much range as I only do 15-25km per day and taking 20 seconds to plug it in, in the garage is really no issue.
Nice review. Just remember you don't drive an EV to empty before considering refilling it, just top it up on a regular basis. Overnight is best, or when it's sitting around while you're shopping/grab a coffee. Great car, good range, looks 'normal' :-)
Hello from Canada, Simone! Thanks for your review. As an owner of a Prius Prime, I wish Toyota had gone this route and offered a full EV Prius. When my lease is up, I will definitely check out an Ioniq EV. Stay safe!
Thanks for the input David. You are right and Toyota have really hedged their bets on Hybrid over full EV for now. We’ll be interested to hear what you think of the Ioniq when you check it out 😊
What a beautiful lady! As always a nice review. Greetings from Germany! We have a somewhat lockdown, but I'm one of the few, who still can (or has to) go to work normally (no, I'm not in the medical or retail branch). Figures show we're slowly getting better every day. That mentioned, I'm sorry for everyone everywhere who has hard times whether on your own or your beloved ones. Times will get better again and please stay safe and healthy!
Thanks for your feedback Bioniq Bob. I agree, I think the more time you spend with the Ioniq the more you realise how the paddles can contribute to extending the range. As for taking it out of sport... wouldn’t that be less fun?! 😈😁
I have a 2017 Ioniq blue hybrid. Typically get 60 mpg with plenty of power. Sport mode is a blast and I literally spin the tires if I hit it hard. Plenty of room and comfort. I'm disappointed that they changed the battery warranty for 2020. I have lifetime vs this year's 8.
You gave a list of warnings,lane leaving and a host of others, I find these multiple warnings a major distraction to put it mildly they drive me nuts I hope its possible to turn them off
Wow you are fantastic. Loved this review - detailed, great info, smart comparisons and thoughtful consideration for potential buyers. Also great to see intelligent, articulate, knowledgable young women out there - you should have a great career ahead of you. And your kindness to viewers related to our collective present predicament was truly appreciated. Keep up the great work!
Great job,I.really enjoy that,thanks for caring,a big.hug from Lanzarote on the western coast of África we folow your Channel Thanks and be safe everybody
Hey Simone, Great review as always. With regards to the car. Er the Ioniq design not pleasant to my eye, I think Hyundai design department could do better eg the I30N or the new 2020 I20. Im still a little reluctant to ever buy EV, rather buy a hybrid, Can happen that you may forget to charge your car and that's a big inconvenience. Tech wise there's still room for improvement. As for the COVID 19 well where I am in beautiful Seychelles it does worry us a lot. Health measures are in place and social distancing is being put into practice, Just like everywhere or almost everywhere schools, shops, casinos etc, are closed and international flights cancelled. We have low number of 10 cases as of today with so far no community spreads here. We hope it continues to stay as it is, So far only god knows. Anyway stay safe everyone wherever you may be in the world
I have an electric car for 3 years now and have never forgotten. In fact it is usually full every morning. Drive one before you judge. Or rent one for a week.
gpierre90 I’m with you on the design factor 😅 At least there is talk of Hyundai introducing an EV variant across their whole range giving plenty of style choices. It has always been a dream of mine to visit the Seychelles - beautiful indeed! It’s sounding positive so far with your numbers being low, I hope it stays that way. All the very best 😊
Good video and review. I hate to criticize but get a pop filter for your voice over mic (or get a better one). Other than that great content, footage, knowledge and enthusiasm.
Interesting car but rather slow. I'm in the market later this year for an EV; most likely Tesla Model 3. Simply lovely reviewer, with that marvelous Oz accent.
Was searching for a linking term that used IONIC in meme re "Ironic" but I can't. So. Thanks for the "stay safe Siimone." Same to you and all Aussies and those beyond, because this damn virus knows no borders .............
If you charge them both they both actually reach the same range in a similar timeframe, but not the same percentage of battery SOC. So yes I spose it's true but feel like it's a bit of a negative spin as you wouldn't be worse off in the new one and for extending trips you leave with more range but on the flip side have to hang around a bit longer for a full charge.
IF only the Australian governments would drop LCT (Luxury Car Tax) on entry level EVs and maybe even offer incentives to buyers (like they did with Solar). Also, I live in Far North Queensland, and we get massive amounts of sun, and yet there is virtually nowhere to buy an EV (and virtually no charging points).
There is no LCT on entry level electric passenger cars. The value is indexed annually and it kicks in over $88k in 2022. What EV is entry level and over $88k?
She needs to learn that the extra range isn't just something simple, it's re-engineering the interior to make extra battery room. Of course the Kona will have better range, it's a larger car and allows for the room to accommodate the batteries.
@@BenzinioB Good gawd you don't get it. V8 diesels are horribly slow & weak, they top out at 1000lb/ft & 500hp for top end drive trains. FYI the Tesla Sedan & SUV P100D drive train is 920lb/ft & 700hp. BEV Equivalent can easily be 1400lb/ft & 1000hp. Electric Pickup Trucks are coming, they are all stupid powerful and crazy quick. Closest ICE equivalent is a Shelby Supersnake F150 at $110,000 USD with options you want. Issue is Half Tonne of Battery is simply more powerful than any reliable mass produced engine.
@@BenzinioB WTF you have no clue what you are talking about. Tesla is getting scary into a Monopolistic Bully. They're products and services have such a massive MOAT it's hard to compete against. All those "Tesla Killers" have failed. This is not good for consumers. It's fools like you are too stupid to understand a Serious Threat.

Thanks, Simone. We're under a 21-day lockdown in South Africa, hoping it ends on the 16th. Keep well!
Thanks for reaching out TND ZA. I also hope it will end as soon as safely possible for all of us. Stay safe! 😊

Is $30k range possible?
Valerie Tan Chinese manufactured EV’s will likely be the first in that price range

Beautifully written Edgar. Danke schön for your warm wishes and hoping you are also safe and healthy 😊
I think you should take it out of sport. I have a 2017 Ioniq and get 240 mixed. I do use the paddles to the max.
On the plus great coverage of car.
Thanks for your feedback Bioniq Bob. I agree, I think the more time you spend with the Ioniq the more you realise how the paddles can contribute to extending the range. As for taking it out of sport... wouldn’t that be less fun?! 😈😁
@@cartelltv I do use sport once in awhile. My last car was a Matrix so it was not too quick.
Visited Brisbane in December 2019. Was excited to see the EVs of Australia but hardly saw any just 2-3 Teslas.

1:47 "you can see the electric motor". Except, it's not the motor you see. It's the charging electronics. The motor is way down.
Interesting car but rather slow. I'm in the market later this year for an EV; most likely Tesla Model 3.
Simply lovely reviewer, with that marvelous Oz accent.
G’day S. Parker! I think you’ll like my next comparing EVs and including the Model 3 😊

You forgot to mention the sluggish fast charging. The old model is much faster, almost twice as fast!
If you charge them both they both actually reach the same range in a similar timeframe, but not the same percentage of battery SOC. So yes I spose it's true but feel like it's a bit of a negative spin as you wouldn't be worse off in the new one and for extending trips you leave with more range but on the flip side have to hang around a bit longer for a full charge.
I now that the 38, 2020 model. I’ll take the additional range and the upgraded interior over the supposedly “sluggish” charging time.
Why would anyone hate EVs?
Yess
Hyundai is better than Tesla honestly

Sorry to hear that John_I, thanks at least for watching a few minutes’ worth. I hope you’re safe and well during these times
NOT a single word about Horse Power, most elementary info around the world!!!
It helps if you'd pay attention. She mentioned the motor produces 100kW of power and 240Nm of torque.
295 nm
Oh. Was it 295? Guess I wasn't paying enough attention, too. Lol
Australia uses KW even for ICE vehicles. The ratio is 1.314HP per KW.
e.g. Holden HSV Clubsport with LSA engine kicks out 410KW.
lol nobody is interested in the car but the woman with those puffy lips. Are they new or used lips HAHAHAHA
My like is for Simone, NOT for this pathetic car!
EV sucks - thumbs down - bye!
BOOO! You must like weak slow cars.
I prefer quick powerful torquey cars.
...so you prefer big V8 diesel - nice choice :D
@@BenzinioB Good gawd you don't get it. V8 diesels are horribly slow & weak, they top out at 1000lb/ft & 500hp for top end drive trains.
