Excellent review, Brian. I have an Ioniq (Hybrid) and have really come to like the reliability and electric shove.

Great video as always, question: Does it have that automatic parking where you can drive on a lot, select a spot and the car will self park? Or is it only back and forward via keyfob

Thank you for watching,🙂in Ireland it doesn’t have the remote function for parking from the key, it might however have this feature in other countries🙂

Will the boot take a full set of golf clubs and essential golf junk too? Thank you

I’m told it does on this new one, but as I said to everyone bring your clubs in to double check🙂👍

@ 12:05 All specs have wireless AppleCarplay and AndriodAuto in the US/Canada EV (2024) model, you sure it doesn't? Same screen setup as well. Their older screen setup did not on upper trims with larger screens.

Thanks for watching , since the video was made , there is a software update release, which now converts to wireless Apple CarPlay or android once completed🙂👍

I saw the correction not plug in hybrid version of this earlier this year at a show, it looks a little like a baby Ioniq 5. (In a good way). Definitely would be on my list, price is a key determinant.

Useful videos. My new, 3 week old UK ultimate had the upgrade to wireless Android auto. But really annoying is the Navigation screen turning BLACK when Home button pressed. Any ideas on a work around on this as it makes using map totally useless after dark .....

Okay, I haven’t seen the vehicles after the update is done , just to clarify, has it changed since the update was carried out?

Does anyone know the length of the rear space, when the seats are folded

@doolanbrian

2 ай бұрын

It’s sort of depends on where your front seats are positioned, so I would say work in the region of around 60 inches

Do Hyundai need someone to negotiate wireless Android Auto licensing? Give me a phone number and the company cheque book! Seems bonkers that they can't sort this out 😂 Excellent video, thank you, I think we will see lots of these around 😊

Nice vid, but the Kona EV I've got on order is coming with 19s, so they don't come with just 17" wheels.

Unfortunately, we don’t have the 19 inch wheel option at the moment, but they look very smart. I’ve seen them in real life in Czech Republic, and I think they look awesome.
