For months now I’ve been torn between buying a Model Y and buying one of Hyundai’s Ioniq models. Today I pulled the trigger and bought my first EV, an Ioniq 6 SEL. Overall I just felt like I was getting more car for the same price. I’m absolutely blown away at how much Hyundai has turned their brand around compared to 5 years ago. The 5 year 60k mile bumper to bumper and the 10/100k battery with two years free charging and 3 years free maintenance is what ultimately sold me. But dang if those Tesla seats aren’t the most comfortable things in the world.

    except no top-down 360 parking assist - like my $20,000 less Bolt had. And also a much worse cross traffic alert. Really, it’s like driving a 1980 anything, with no serious help for perking. No front bumper camera(!!!). It HAD radar sensors but Tesla took them out to save a few bucks. Aaaarrrrgggghhhh.

    1980’s is good description of Tesla/Musk’s war on low cost proven safety tech.
