I often take my parents Ioniq 5 II have a 2019 BMW M340i) one thing I noticed is the constant beeping of the car, especially the overeager lane assist. But luckily you can turn it off by pressing the lane assist button for around 2 seconds on the steering wheel. What my BMW also does better is the semi autonomous driving. With the BMW I'm driving 50 km/h right at the sign and it notices signs very accurately. The Ioniq takes it's time and unfortunately I live in a country where the fines for speeding are pretty high. But other than that I love cruising in the Ioniq 5!

I owned one for 5 months, and I agree with you that it is a great compact SUV. The interior space is higher than much larger ICE SUVs, or EV SUVs built on an ICE architecture. It’s a lot nicer than most people would imagine both driving wise, and interior quality wise. But it is incredibly difficult to find in anything but the base spec without major markups. Numerous Genesis dealers don’t do markups. So once the GV60 Advanced becomes more available, I’d recommend that over the Limited AWD Ioniq. It has a much more luxurious interior, and more buttons for things that you have to use the screen for in the Ioniq, such as the seat heater/ventilation. At $60k, it’s only $4k more than the MSRP of the Ioniq Limited AWD pre markup.

The IONIQ is a good looking vehicle inside and out. I agree with the reviewer it does have retro styling cues mixed with a modern flair that are appealing. As small to mid-sized electric vehicles are concerned, its a complete opposite direction in the styling department from the category leader Toyota Prius. Albeit the 2023 arrow-head-like redesign of the Prius is quite a looker. But non-the-less, both are appealing in their own way. It's just a matter if you want a 'car' or 'SUV'.

Stretch each stop to 20 minutes and you get 200 miles of charge. 50+ years ago, there weren't gas stations at every exit on the highway either.
