IONIQ 6 vs IONIQ 5 Comparison 

Similar price difference in Australia.

Thanks for the update! Since I'm exactly Jacob's height, I'd go with the Ioniq 5 as well. Plus, the styling is super cool retro - I still love seeing these around town. Can't wait for an N version. Great content as always!!

​@@afterburn2600 I'm also Jacob's height.... Yet I fit perfectly in the 6, no problems with the stalk 🤷

02:22 - Ioniq 5 has the lower drag coefficient. Minor mistake - Take 2 😁

Was wondering. The Ioniq 5 I almost bought was specced at $63K with everything and the fancy matte paint

Ioniq 5 FTW!!!

Back looks Porsche like, but the front tried to look like a Porsche but ended up bland and old Ioniq 5 looks more unique as a car

5 is dope. Only thing that made me like it less is when I visited Seoul last summer, there’s a lot of Ionic 5 taxis there, and driving a taxi car just seems less cool

Put a rear wiper on the 5 and I'm sold.

@@raphjern the back looks like a Porsche only because of the slope and spoiler for aerodynamics. As a whole, the back doesn't look anything like a Porsche.

Or when either actually become available to purchase

Just watch for the battery degredation at that point too.

Battery life will be shit used, which is why I stay away from electric vehicles

@@kermit1 they'll be fine in 5 years. plenty of 5 year old Tesla's,leafs and Zoe's still going fine

@@cococly I’m just gonna delete cocos comment

Exactly...the 6 just looks like any other car on the road, the 5 is 80's boxy awesomeness.

Yeah, trying to actually get either one, and get it for anywhere near MSRP, is like finding a needle in a haystack

At least here in California, there’s over 1,000 IONIQ 5’s available and already over 150 in Southern California alone. My local dealership has 16 IONIQ 6’s ready for delivery and over 75 IONIQ 5’s

@@corvetkidable To be fair California probably has the highest priority for stock allocation in North America. Based on population density, EV incentives, and charging infrastructure. Where I'm located there is a 75+ person line, estimated 14-17 month wait. And that's brutal.

@@DJPixcell yeah I'm in a similar situation, at least a year wait if you order one, or you can wait and hope the dealerships get one in a trim you want and that they won't completely screw you on the price, as many dealers here are selling any EVs they get for substantially higher than their sticker prices. It sucks

i own ioniq 5 last two and half yeras, great car. i owned leaf tesla,and bmw i8 before

Bro I'm from the hood too

A No Hassle Frunk lid!! TERRIFIC

I did

I did. The whole country is killing it not just automotive manufacturing but also in chip manufacturing, defense manufacturing, ship manufacturing, electronics, entertainment, etc.

@@JohnLee-db9ztthat’s what a South Korean would say 🤔

Right?

Yea and reduced wind noise as a result

looks are subjective my friend. and if form doesnt follow function ie for taller people then half of your potential audience is put off.

I typically don't like the look of the stereotypical EV - contemporary designs, the pop out door handles, minimal spaceship interiors. I always said that I wanted a Tesla Model S that looks like a Camry or an Accord. The IONIQ 5 is an exception for me. I honestly love the way this car looks, especially the cool taillights and sleek windows. Not a huge fan of the interior however.

It looks SOOO good

I really like how the Ioniq 5 looks... except for that diagonal crease on the side. That looks horrible. I'm leaning towards the Ioniq 5 for my first electric car, but I'm going to have to choose a color based on how it minimizes the look of the crease.

Definitely infinity j30 tailight vibes

What cars did you own before this? Currently I have a 2014 bmw 5 series and I want to trade it in for an ionic 5 N with 640whp.

Ioniq 6 is absolutely hideous. I would need to put at least three paper bags on my head if I was to drive one. The 5 looks cool, tho

To me, it gives me old 70s Citroen DS vibes. I like it too...

check out the Skoda Rapid from 1970! IONIQ 6 design is even worse than that

Nice onions

The driving position and sleekness of the 6 was really appealing to me, but the ease of fitting my bike into the back of the 5 made all the difference.

Makes sense

@@TheStraightPipes reason why i dont liek electric car is that battery degradation and lack of battery recyling. dendrites that forms from battery degradation is messes with recyalability too. if you look at sandy munroe video caled wjats insize 680 battery, there could be indicator of how much of battery can be recycled by mechnaical seperation vs what chemical process would be needed, woudl it be susntinable process? recycling company called redwood. even if they fix this problem, will they dig through trash to find enviromentally damaged (rust, mud,etc) dead car batteries currently being dumped, and recycle them? in emissions, best hting to do is a ca rof where rear seats face the rear as comcpact 4 seate rreplacing 2+2 seater cars and yaris corolla cars, and rear mid engine small combustion flat 2 cyulnder wnith no rotatiing parts to send power to wheels, instead magnets moving back and forth make electricty aand or a little supplemnetary compressed air , to power electric drive and compressed air driver, possibly with no battery or at minimal battery, using supercapacitor etc. optimal combustions per second for emissions with electric and mechnaical hybrid turbocharger, sometimes engine will run beyodn optimal effiency or emissions levels for unsuually high power demand to protect long term emissiosn and fuel use reduction effetiveness of battery for common lower power use. with limited batterys to use, hybrids are already more effceint effective at reducing emissions, vs using that battery material for fewer cars who are electric cars, becaue most emissions happens in low speed high pushing power sitatuaitons of combustion car, where emissions are most likley to chemicaly harm health of nearby people becaue its usually compact city area with many people nearby. what battery size is best for longevity? see tony hellers climate change videos, maybe somone can make use of suspicious observers videos. see aptera owners club video on saftey, unqiue materials they use, lightweight is safer to peopel outsid ethe car but can be safe for people inside car compared to hevaier caar if using right materials, and even safer due to wat type of crash is more likley to happen.. linearly more ligghter weight exponentially causes less road wear damage causing less resurces and emissions and road downtimes. in effeincy per functionality, rear seats facing rear in sompact 4 seater woudl make more sense. solarpanel effeincy is only arouund 20 percent and can become lot better d

They really nailed it with how roomy and open these interiors feel. That was one of the selling points for me with the 5 as well.

Rearly?

did you receive the car? how is it?

Thinking about ordering a very similar setup, My commute is going to be 250km a day for the next while.

@@aynunnabil super. I’ve had it for 2 weeks and I cannot find anything wrong with it yet. Except that it is bigger than what I’m used to. Extremely smooth, stylish, spacious, it’s giving me 503km range on eco mode and 460+ on sport at 100%. Car can park alone and go in and out of tight spaces with remote. Seats have a million positions you can set them to and I’m overall it’s a very comfortable car

for me i would have to go AWD, rear wheel doesnt work well in the northeast winters. i am 6'1" so this review has me curious to test drive both now to see how i fit

yes, if you like cockroaches

@@sssssneaker lol

South korea still selling hyundai cars in russia and buying russian OIL and gas

the 6 looks like a cocroach

I think they would both look better without the Hyundai badge on the front. Hopefully they're just attached with double sided tape and can be taken off.

@@dark6c159 who asked and who cares?

Agreed. The current headlights don't have a very defined shape. It's a bit anonymous in front. New Sonata, very much a retro-future vibe

And why in the heck didn't they make it a hatch/sportback?

@@NoZenith well they did - its the Ioniq5 which looks way better anyway

Or wait a while longer and get the Ioniq 6N which will have better handling dynamics over the 5N.

For me I see infinity j30 tailights

VTEC VAN!

I am the opposite! I have the 6 and love seeing 5's around in Australia. Haven't yet seen another 6 yet (only been out a week).

All of the Tesla Model 3 owners I know who have driven the Ioniq 5 would never want to switch. There's quite a bit that Hyundai gets wrong including software and charging.

If that was true, how can I get 145 kw/h on a 400 v 150 kw charger in my Ioniq 5? ;)

I’ll never forget how long it took me to find the windows switches in that car

We call the “DiSiMi” ^^

The bmw is from 2007

@@Maarioo007 And it's one of the best looking they've done. People are on something

Thank you

Thanks. We’re having a local meet next Saturday. Check our RU-vid community section if you can make it 👍

Your preference is Hyundai priority concern

? Coz they don't look alike at all go check your eyes

porsche rear and citreon big time!
