I think it's great that you do review the lower trim levels of cars. When we shop for new cars we always start at a base model and move our way up the trim levels until we buy one optioned out with what we will be happy with. Sometimes get buy a step below a "Limited" because lower trim levels offer so much these days for standard features.
Finally hybrid's and EV's aren't completely hideous to look at. Thanks for the review Joe!

The catfish grill is growing on me too. I'm still not sold yet on the rear of the car. It's kinda too funky for my liking although it has a sorta 1950s vibe to it. Biggest zonk for me on this car is the interior though. It's too dark and too hard plasticky. Then there's the huge bezels around the infotainment screen. The interior looks like something for a rental car.
Great review! Thank you

All sold out when I went looking .. ended up in the gas model; up here 65 vs 45 mpg CITY. The highest value is the hybrid if you can get your hands on one - it also helps the resale a ton; taxis and couriers will be after it in 4 or 5 years. Salesperson said it well, not so much for residual but ease in a line of people after it pronto.

J ~ my car came with a broken broom handle I have to use to keep the hood up, it doesn't even have seats, I sit on a milk crate instead & it slides all over the place, but one good thing about not having seats in the car is the trunk is huge. another thing, it didn't come with windshield wipers, it runs on Premium only & gets around 5 miles per gallon around town. I still don't know if it has a transmission or not because it never gets out of first gear, but I have cheap car insurance - silver lining around every tornado. butt really - wonderfully awesome report per usual - tony

Smaller wheels and higher sidewalls mean a more cofortable ride. The "hard" Rubbermaid like plastics are easier and less fussy to clean. Cloth seats are more comfortable and usually extremely durable and less fussy to clean and care for than leather or even leatherette. All of those "knocks "are selling points for me. But they shoud have a fold down armrest in the back as well as some connectivity there.

I just bought one in British Columbia, Canada. Obviously I like it, but why the gunmetal/black wheels? I think two tone would have been more attractive (imagine silver/chrome accents). And like you, Raiti, I don't get why there's nothing on the left side of the dash or why there's no USB port on the back of the center console. This is my first hybrid vehicle, and I expect I'll like its fuel economy. Thanks for the vid.

0-60 in 7.5 is definitely not slow. Especially, for a small MPG focused hybrid. The "Blue" is also the Hyundai way of saying that it's the lowest trim of the hybrid. You can get all the great stuff with it but you'll have to pay for it.
