teomingern 6th Gear June 9, 2021 Share June 9, 2021 The video serves to highlight just how retro the design is... it looks really cool... really cool.... almost like a fashion statement... just the sort that I would hate to own but it's just so well put together that the other brands' EVs look like afterthoughts...

Eugn86 3rd Gear July 9, 2021 Share July 9, 2021 A fully decorated 5-stars from the guys at Auto Express: https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/hyundai/ioniq-5 And Auto Express Car of the Year 2021: https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/hyundai/ioniq-5/355457/car-year-2021-hyundai-ioniq-5 I hope the pricing hits the sweet spot - perhaps for it to do so it has to be produced in Singapore. Looking forward to the Hyundai factory! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to the Hyundai factory! I live near the site where the new Hyundai electric car factory is to be... in fact, it's opposite the new Tengah HDB estate... and the factory site is humongous and I think the traffic is going to be really bad in that area for the next 2 years as they widen the road and lay all the piping, cabling and bring in all the building materials and heavy equipment... it is already pretty crazy now, and this coincides with the Tengah estate construction plus the new Jurong Regional Line... my goodnes... I moved to avoid all that upgrading work when I was living in Clementi, and I had peace for about 5 years before all these construction works came in... I think will bang until 2027...

teomingern 6th Gear July 10, 2021 Share July 10, 2021 Anyway Ioniq 5 is a premium model, so don't expect pricing to be low... Today's ST advertisement for Kia Niro, the hybrid is $100,000, the electric is $152,000... so $50K more for the electric version... not sure if anyone will get it... plus all the charging availability issues... So I just wonder what kind of pricing the Ioniq 5 will offer... given that it's the marque's flagship electric car, I fully expect it to be offered here... just hope to see a few on the road...

Rumor has it that they are going to sell the Ioniq 5 as a shell and the battery has to be leased. Similar to how NIO does it in China but without the battery swapping capabilities. Moreover only limited units will be brought in and charging with Komoco will no longer be free 😶 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ioniq 5 won't be the flagship of the Ioniq range, it is the middle child. There will be smaller and larger models within the Ioniq range. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, what I meant to say was that the Ioniq spin-off is a premium marque meant to compete with Tesla and the like... and the Ioniq range will take at least 5 years to fill up...
