### Introduction: A New Relationship and a Car Review
This isn’t a car review—I’m just curious. We don’t do that. Last week, I introduced the world to my two-week-old girlfriend, and I loved her so much, I got her a car… and I have no shoes. And she decided to move on after I gave her a car, a ring, and a big part of me—a huge part of me, my heart—so you guys come here for the full fun crazy content.
Thank you, yes, yes, yeah. And we have some really cool stuff coming. We ordered a new car, but it’s not here yet, and we don’t want to miss a week for videos. So we decided to find a car we really liked and do a really basic mini-review on it. We also don’t want to work on the C4; we will literally buy an electric Hyundai economy car than work on the C4 Corvette.

### Compliance Video: Hyundai’s Journey from Ugly to Admired
This is a compliance video because a lot of people have been complaining, blah—I can’t show this video to my kids or wife or girlfriend. This is a non-cringe video for you because you’ve been complaining so much. Maybe you know this and maybe you don’t, but a company named Hyundai decided to put out the emperor’s new clothes and change everything.
Hyundai, the company that made throwaway cars—you’d buy it brand new for eight thousand dollars and sell it after a year for 1500. They were ugly, they were slow, they were a definitive economy car, and it showed Hyundais were hard to love. But the rumors are—they’ve come a long way from the Cracker Jack box. And you know what? It’s easy to love them now—almost as easy as making a website with Squarespace.

### Test-Driving the Hyundai IONIC 5
This is for you, this is for the audience studio audience. Thank you very much. Now, this is for you. And now that you’ve watched so many of our videos, we can go out and rent this car for a review. That’s how much we are now making—we can we have enough disposable income to rent cars for videos? Stephen… I’ve been sitting in this car for about 30 seconds, and there’s a couple things that I’ve noticed—but there is an overall theme to this car: simple, very simple car. I do like the black dashboard and the white door panels—that’s kind of neat; it brings my attention to these screens here.
---
### The Interior and Technology
Look at this very carefully—these two screens are the same size. This screen I believe is probably like maybe like 79 on Amazon, and so is that one wind screens. However, if they had one long flowing screen, it would have cost them more. They decided to save—I don’t know, maybe like forty dollars—and have this gap here—it’s like a gap tooth. Yeah, it’s like why like that? It’s just weird right—not only that, it’s not a tie cam; it’s not a lucid a tie can—there’s at least nine screens you look at least nine screens yeah.
So for this, it’s like all right, wait a minute: Why would it make this one-point piece, but you have this here and you can put photos of your kids? You could have a picture of your significant other using another uh… Jesus, Jesus, Jesus Christo—and that’ll kind of tell you how does it go again, “don’t drive faster than your guardian angel can fly.” Yeah, can fly. Yeah, right there—just that’s an ideal spot for that.
---
### Quirks and Design Choices
But overall, it’s not—it doesn’t seem… I haven’t driven it really; so you—you would you know a little bit more—but this is this is interesting. This is you know what I mean—like usually simple, usually this is here, but it’s almost like they like what goes here? Should this have been presented further? Yeah—you’re a satchel, your Satchel should go there. Yeah, this is this is your next Satchel. So you have two different satchels—was this provided for you?
Dealership had this here; so I was also informed these ones are only Power—the one that connects to the car. Um, why we’re still using you know the poverty spec USB? Yeah, no—that’s way behind can you explain that to me? I… I don’t can’t explain that anything—this is very take tycon-esque—is the start-stop button. I feel like we’re spoiled having vehicles like the Tesla that could just sense that you’re not sitting in the seat and once you leave the car shuts off.
---
### Performance and Charging Capabilities
I don’t think these seat 70 sensors—if you crash—you crash, the steering wheel is cute—yeah, that’s what I think of the word upside down—it looks upside down. This is better—it makes more yeah well this looks better but then this should be flipped around right because it’s kind of like yeah—you don’t have the flat on top; yeah that looks kind of weird.
No, it’s it’s a… oh yeah man, this was a design choice for a car that’s as hard angled as it is on the outside. Yeah, this inside feels it feels soft, simple—it’s soft yeah so what’s what’s quiet mode? What’s this—there’s a little sleeping lion front seats; uh volume low level. Okay, cool—that’s neat.
---
### The Electric Vehicle Experience
Yeah, the interface is pretty it’s pretty Snappy 57 warmer; you have to touch a button to heat your seats—it’s not like a it’s not an instant thing on the it’s not a quick push button yeah okay so this topographical uh bit is fascinating—no, it froze for a second yeah well you know all right so EV I know that I know that this is neat so this is one of the things they explained to me is kind of like the advantage this EV will show you the difference between if you have your air conditioning on or off for this side which not saying that Tesla doesn’t do that and others don’t but this is a little bit more drawn out for you.
---
### Navigation and Charging Stations
Well, see that yeah they have winter mode okay I like how it says may deteriorate this is as much as a guarantee yes yeah it might death in taxes but it’s going to yeah right yeah no kidding how do you figure out what a charge—how about that okay go to navigation let’s go navigation uh destinations traffic yeah Hyundai dealerships I’m not seeing chart you would expect this to be a little bit more let’s go to EV charging stations there you go there it is 14 miles away—that’s not bad.
---
### Promotional Content: ShipStation
I want to be that guy no penalty if you but I know you could charge at home yep but like I mean you’re more likely to Target Whole Foods let’s be real—No One’s Gonna charge there Whole Foods right DC fast wait is this fast what do these tell you? What is a little little thing tell you what does that mean?
We have to check the menu on that one yeah that's yellow but that's green DC plus like it’s not obvious yeah this is not a very good interface at all like it doesn’t what that’s distance cool and that’s by name—it should specify you know people want to know the kilowatts what’s the speed it doesn’t tell you anything so that’s helpful.
---
### Conclusion: Final Thoughts on the Hyundai IONIC 5
I mean again, we have to be mindful this is a Hyundai okay I’m not being a jerk but I didn’t know what it was because of these yeah this is an airbag what is what kind of car is this? This is not a very good menu to use like I’ve seen even this is like a menu at a backdoor Chinese restaurant seriously yeah without the pictures—I know I know you hate that I don’t I don’t know what number I don’t know what combination plate number six I don’t know what that is this is weird to me it’s like wait is that I you’d think when you push that that would either light up or disappear right no there's a button above that that changes it—we’re not dog demiro here we never claim to be but we're we're realists here.
Okay, the car is quirky and it does have features that I don't know what else. What does that remind you of? What oh gosh look at it from here—I have to vibrate that's weird doesn't this look like the Tesla fidget spinner—she's gonna love it okay I know I'm single but why is this vibrated—you've got any jokes? It does yeah it does loved it yeah, this looks just like that but yeah so this is you you twist this look oh you twist it drive reverse and then huh—it’s it’s a very did you feel it feel go ahead yeah touch it yeah there you go—oh crap it's actually that's a very confident feeling thing you like that don't you yeah why is tune there's some things that you can't get away with every Parts finish it's not it's not bad but what what are these Steven what do these normally go for?
---
### Final Words and Closing
54 Grand man—that's a lot of money shooting star exterior color zero dollars oh shoot this is real money this was only rear wheel drive 55 or 58 yeah look at this right you want yourself where's the door pull here here no you gotta do this a little Gap in here you pull that a little weird it's a quirk I mean I guess it's a lot yeah you have options but you know what that does that makes this entire thing dirty can I have dirty hands any good look at that unscripted things are always dirty—it’s gonna be dirty in like no time you know what I mean yeah I guess you wouldn't get uh the light colored door card would you?
I would not I actually wouldn't what I would do is I would when I went online to Hyundai I would go to the uh ionic five pick the specs I want throw them away and then go on porsche.com in order to take in is that the where's this coming from I don't know. The sensor was actually pretty good for you oh it's in the front—it’s like oh it's like a weird office oh oh no this one does that too Hondas do that yeah it's kind of loud too is it like Angelic yeah yeah because the Honda has that like voice of an Angel sound for its uh hybrids.

for you and now that you've watched so many of our videos we can go out and rent this car for a review that's how much we are now making we can we have enough disposable income to rent cars for videos

EV will show you the difference between if you have your air conditioning on or off for this side which not saying that Tesla doesn't do that and others don't but this is a little bit more drawn out for you well see that yeah they have winter mode okay I like how it says may deteriorate this is as much as a guarantee yes yeah it might death in taxes but it's going to yeah right yeah no kidding how do you figure out what a charge how about that okay go to navigation let's go navigation uh destinations traffic yeah Hyundai dealerships I'm not seeing chart you would expect this to be a little

yeah because the Honda has that like voice of an Angel sound for its uh hybrids this is this is I don't know it's not it's not bad this this little folded paper thing is interesting what is that what is what is what is that that's just how their Dash is set up like that's for your miles per hour that's for your charge and whatnot this thing this looks like a winged maxi pad the accent outside though I really like the extra area of this car huh okay how big of a dog goes back there uh you could feed a German Shepherd but he won't be happy would biscuit like it oh biscuit just yeah it's uh is it a foot thing yeah aren't they all yeah aren't they all foot these days the foot fetish people it's big it's nice man that's what she said it's nice what's under here let's be the car Mobility kid it's not bad it's like a false floor that's not bad how much is that four is false I think it's not very false dude I love the digital tail lights I love that look at that that is awesome a halogen reverse light wow yeah do it again do reversed yeah it's halogen come on Hunt come on guys they're trying to cut costs maybe this car would have been seventy thousand if if it weren't for yeah yeah the margins had to be there yeah honestly it's a very it really is a good looking car it really is it has I like that a lot that's what makes this I guarantee you there was a stamping issue at the factory and they just said you know what let's just leave that in there run with that yeah I do like it I even like these you know what I mean it's it's really they did a good job did a really good job but look at these look a weird complex look at that what is that it's a random angle triangle there so many shapes I don't 60 Grand like it but I'm gonna do it by hand oh no oh that was an option yeah that's the most important I like how they do that how they shame you yeah yeah this is what you could have had you didn't get that did you you didn't get that what's the charge for it that's it it's got Braille on it now that's what five squares on this one the front lights the front oh I love that what game is that well there's squares everywhere that's a game isn't it Tetris I played a game called blocks yeah Tetris blocks whatever you call it that's that looks weird they did a really good job somebody deserves an award really good job oh there's no space here I I thought for sure there'd be a front I think we got spoiled when it comes to what's this EV IL it's letting you oh oh there is a frunk kinda yeah this is probably the sixth CD changer in here yeah in the rear or the yeah like seriously they're in the weirdest places you had to have a passenger to change your CD for you or somebody in the trunk if you kidnap somebody be like hey can you can you just switch the Phil Collins you might let me out yeah you like Huey Lewis in the news can you switch it to that please again they just the symbolism I don't even I don't I I'm I can't stand this newfound hey look I'm an EV I'm gonna have these super annoying door handles Tesla started this all I feel attention level High signifying how does it last break Force how does it know hmm what is this what are they recording is there a camera here like how does it know I don't know I'm still trying to play the game so there's four squares on the steering wheel yeah back by the charge port there's one on the door where's the two this three right here where is the two squares is this supposed to be a game is this like a fun Easter egg are you an eco mode I think so am I what's that how do you get out of eco mode drive mode there we go it's like it's a Porsche drive mode oh now it's in sport everything turns red oh this is awesome look at this so sporty oh that's a lot better yeah yeah all right that's not bad I mean it threw our backpacked in the back yeah the camera wasn't there yeah it's actually right down Okay so we're okay all right yeah it's actually not bad no real really isn't it level two attack to the AP one days of Tesla but sometimes that's not bad because when you see a bridge in the distance your car doesn't start crying and freak out that's a plus what does this do so those paddles are for regen holy that regen's pretty all right yeah that's kind of interesting it's the first time I've seen that oh wow yeah you can get the regime pretty strong also do you merely control the radio on on demand change oh that's so cool so if you're in like a really hilly area if you if you're a person that doesn't like driving a regen right here like right here oh that's kind of cool yeah that's a neat feature I'll give you that this no this is a really nice car again 60 Grand dude I got out of my pocket so this is the other problem run into right now as as Squirrely and as as uh hokey you want to get with it yeah you can't because this has to get home like we just passed three gas stations literally three gas stations ready why don't we just get all these yeah I have something to share with you you're probably wondering why I got all of these uh sweets at the um the gas station I'm actually working with a company that benefits children huh is the snacks in here a Christmas tree cake you just got candy for children okay for kids now stay with me whose kids are these for I send random treats to random kids throughout Massachusetts I work for I work with a private dentist practice what you do is after the kids consume the candies you'll see a mild spike in cavities and I get a kickback from there you know how I send them out ship station I don't normally send packages to kids because I'm not Santa Claus obviously it's also creepy chip station takes a lot of the guesswork out of this they make it 10 times easier to send out your packages Stephen they make it easy quick and convenient to send out these candies to those deserving children they automate time-sensitive shipping processes with an easy simple to use interface work with carriers all major characters UPS USPS even international shipping the work of all of our front stores our eBay front stores Amazon Etsy it's just a really awesome thing to use Stephen so you could put more time into doing the things like this for the kids it's a holiday season Stephen gotta get back to the children right I'm like a hundred thousand other sellers that use ship station small businesses like us could access the same rates that Fortune 500 companies do so go to shipstation.com Richmond builds to get a free 60-day trial you can do that right now makeshift happen it's the holiday season see are these for the children what film I didn't know that they did it yeah dude do the thing do the thing one finger one finger that's kind ah I get it you could use two I don't understand like why when would you ever use that why would you ever do that you use that Mark yeah like if you got your phone and you want to pull your phone out to open it up yeah you know what I mean you use the key fob just just when you have a tight who you hold two bags you have a car like this oh you're a butler that's sick oh is it a case you put on yourself yeah that's kind of sick so I have another one that's metal with the uh why does it do that I did that on the type on our tie can too like he's flashed for no reason until it dies does that cool man this is cool by the way this is Mark everyone and uh Mark was in the last video when he built his own model three he has since graduated from model threes apparently how does this compare to the model three Mark tell me fit and finish build quality yeah not even close not even close drivability handling yeah it's not even close you need to tell me that an economy EV couldn't keep up with this one not crazy that's crazy don't get me wrong I've had five Teslas since yeah we did that video yeah and I actually still have another model for you in Florida Tech is cool but as far as like driving it like I don't want to be an autopilot I want to drive the car yeah basically drive the car it's not even close to the handling dependability yeah charging yeah yeah it's an 800 volt charging right so I was charging my X when I was driving out because I traded my ex for this yeah in Pennsylvania model X yeah yeah I know I know so you know yeah so I'm charging you know and when I hit 30 yeah it comes out of the game great then it just comes down comes down this thing is an animal like it doesn't drop off really usually after like the the 20 25 it's just like yeah hammering at like 70 really not even close Electrify America and I watch all the videos like Kyle from out of spec and all these other guys that like go to Electrify America and we're looking for the handshake and it doesn't work and I go none of that really pulled up I plugged in went to the machine it said continue I hit that and boom then it just ramped up and it was just hammering that's awesome man and it doesn't drop off is there is there is there one around here is there one around here let's try America or no Chester yeah this is not a lot I forget it yeah we're in that part of New Hampshire it's just kind of like yeah they don't really yeah I mean they're already in the UK yeah you know what I mean how many kilowatts does a supercharger charge at like 250 right the 250 yeah really a lot of the many City Mini ones yeah really electrified America the 350 and like I'm telling you this was getting like 270. how many cars could support what kind of support for uh for kilowatts charging Max 300 yeah interesting no this is this is a mark congratulations Mark Mark very proud this guy was down here with now look at him now he's behind the mountain Rich you climb the mountain baby you got it out the mud love it Mark I love this pot when I created my test I got six grand more than one I paid for did you really yep and I drove it for two years you can't you do it with this one Mark probably not come down so what would what would this car cost if it was a Turbo S it'd be a 200 000 company yeah with the options that's what this has that's crazy this is beautiful now this is what an interior is supposed to look like remember the baby blue tie cam this is this is nice this is nice look at this look at this the matching red accents this is an interior not that great yeah that finger swipe oh wait wait she likes it like that she likes and three oh this is great was the back door too you have the foot kick on this one yeah we'll get this magic sleeted this is a bed Mark I'm doing these in the front door it's like a boy for the floor mats yeah oh Mark I don't do that Mark don't do that Mark Mark you were doing so well with the wheel you can't put that as formats good hopefully an oil tycoon very striking and futuristic looks and an overall great attempt by Hyundai now the UI wasn't really all that great but the power is good especially in sport mode you get about a five second zero to 60. now the car we tested was about 55 000 for the all-wheel drive version and it can easily get to 60 if you keep adding things now the ionic has an awesome 800 volt charging architecture for very very fast charging and it deserves to win every award it has so far it's a very cool nice refreshing newcomer now truthfully I'd rather have one over a model 3 and the tech in the ionic falls behind the model 3 but keep in mind the ionic Israel isn't that bad it does offer some really cool self-driving features similar to AP1 in the Tesla just less whiny now the ionic is a great price for an EV what I mean is unfortunately for the 55k mark You're cross shopping with other cars including gas it's not that great of a value compared to an Acura MDX it has more luxury and more features and more room the Pathfinder the Grand Cherokee the Volkswagen Atlas and a nicely equipped Audi Q5 the ionic handily gets its rear end pushed in by those cars offering more features for the same money but for an EV it is an absolute great car and I would happily drive one with no tint on it and be seen in it so before you ionic 5 and Kia ev6 owners get mad I really like your cars so much that I would buy one for my girlfriend and I would drive it every chance I get I will see you guys next weekthis is not a car review I'm just curious we don't do that so last week I introduced the world to my two week old girlfriend and I loved her so much I got her a car and I have no shoes um and she decided to move on after I gave her a car a ring and a big part of me a huge part of me my heart so you guys come here for the full fun crazy content yes sir thank you yes yes yeah and we have some really cool stuff coming we ordered a new car but it's not here yet and we don't want to miss a week for videos so we decided to find a car we really liked and do a really basic Mini review on it we also do not want to work on the C4 we will literally buy an electric Hyundai economy car than work on the C4 Corvette also this is a compliance video because a lot of people complaining blah I can't show this video to my kids or wife or girlfriend this is a non-cringe video for you because you've been complaining so much maybe you know this and maybe you don't but a company named Hyundai decided to put out the emperor's new clothes and change everything yes Hyundai the company that made throwaway cars you'd buy it brand new for eight thousand dollars and sell it after a year for 1500. they were ugly they were slow they were a definitive economy car and it showed Hyundais were hard to love but the rumors they

I'm just curious about it no we really care we don't do that yeah I got a lot yeah there was a dealership that had one we said well we'll go take it for a day this is for you this is for the audience studio audience thank you very much now this is for you and now that you've watched so many of our videos we can go out and rent this car for a review that's how much we are now making we can we have enough disposable income to rent cars for videos so Stephen um I've been sitting in this car for about 30 seconds and there's a couple things that I've noticed but there is an overall theme to this car is simple very simple car I do like the black dashboard and the the white door panels that's kind of neat it brings my attention to these screens here look at this very carefully these two screens are the same size this screen I believe is probably like maybe like 79 on Amazon and so is that one wind screens however if they had one long flowing screen it would have cost them more they decided to save I don't know maybe like forty dollars and have this Gap here it's like a gap tooth yeah it's like why like that is it's just weird right not only that it's not a tie cam it's not it's not a lucid a tie can there's at least nine screens you look at least nine screens yeah so for this it's like all right wait a minute why would it make this one point piece but you have this here and you can put uh photos of your kids you could have a picture of um your significant other using another uh of Jesus Jesus Jesus Christo and that'll kind of tell you how does it go again don't drive faster oh don't don't drive faster than your guardian angel can fly yeah can fly yeah right there just that's an ideal spot for that but overall it's it's not it doesn't seem I haven't driven it really so you you would you would know a little bit more but this is this is interesting this is you know what I mean like usually simple usually this is here but it's almost like they like what goes here like should this have been presented further yeah you're a satchel your Satchel should go there yeah this is this is your next Satchel so you have two different satchels was this this was provided for you dealership had this here so I was also informed these ones are only Power this one is the one that connects to the car um why we're still using you know the poverty spec USB yeah no that's way behind can you explain that to me I I don't can't explain that anything that bugs me and this is very take tycon-esque is the start stop button I feel like we're spoiled having vehicles like the Tesla that could just sense that you're not sitting in the seat and once you leave the car shuts off I don't think these seat 70 sensors is probably not no airbags nothing if you crash you crash the steering wheel is cute yeah that's what I think of the word upside down it looks upside down yeah it looks upside down this is better it makes more yeah well this looks better but then this should be flipped around right because it's kind of like yeah you don't have the flat on the top yeah that looks kind of weird no it's it's a oh yeah man this is this was a design choice for a car that's as hard angled as it is on the outside yeah this inside feels it feels soft simple it's soft yeah so what's what's quiet mode what's this there's a little sleeping lion front seats uh volume low level okay cool that's neat yeah the interface is pretty it's pretty Snappy 57 warmer so you have to touch a button to heat your seats so it's not like a it's not an instant thing on the it's not a quick push button yeah okay so this topographical uh bit is fascinating no it froze for a second yeah well you know all right so EV I know that I know that this is neat so this is one of the things they explained to me is kind of like the advantage this EV will show you the difference between if you have your air conditioning on or off for this side which not saying that Tesla doesn't do that and others don't but this is a little bit more drawn out for you well see that yeah they have winter mode okay I like how it says may deteriorate this is as much as a guarantee yes yeah it might death in taxes but it's going to yeah right yeah no kidding how do you figure out what a charge how about that okay go to navigation let's go navigation uh destinations traffic yeah Hyundai dealerships I'm not seeing chart you would expect this to be a little bit more let's go to EV charging stations there you go there it is there you go 14 miles away that's not bad it's a DC first charge this is what I'm this okay yep I want to be that guy no penalty if you but I know you could charge at home yep but like I mean you're more likely to Target Whole Foods let's be real No One's Gonna charge there Whole Foods right DC fast wait is this fast what do these tell you what is a little little thing tell you what does that mean we have to check the menu on that one yeah that's yellow but that's green DC plus like it's not obvious yeah this is not a very good interface at all like it doesn't what that's distance cool and that's by name it should specify you know people want to know the kilowatts what's the speed it doesn't tell you anything so that's helpful I mean again we have to be mindful this is a Hyundai okay I'm not being a jerk but I didn't know what it was because of these yeah this is an airbag what is what kind of car is this this is not a very good menu to use like I've seen even this is like a menu at a backdoor Chinese restaurant seriously yeah without the pictures I know I know you hate that I don't I don't know what number I don't know what combination plate number six I don't know what that is this is weird to me it's like wait is that I I you'd think when you push that that would either light up or disappear right no there's a button above that that changes it we're not dog demiro here we never claim to be but we're we're realists here okay the car is quirky and it does have features that I don't know what else what does that remind you of what oh gosh look at it from here I have to vibrate that's weird doesn't this look like the Tesla fidget spinner she's gonna love it okay I know I'm single but why is this vibrated you've got any jokes it does yeah it does loved it yeah this looks just like that but yeah so this is you you twist this look oh you twist it drive reverse and then huh it's it's a very did you feel it feel go ahead yeah touch it yeah there you go oh crap it's actually that's a very confident feeling thing you like that don't you yeah why is tune there's some things that you can't get away with every Parts finish it's not it's not bad but what what are these Steven what do these normally go for 54 Grand man that's a lot of money shooting star exterior color zero dollars oh shoot this is real money this was only rear wheel drive 55 or 58 yeah look at this right you want yourself where's the door pull here here no you gotta do this a little Gap in here you pull that a little weird it's a quirk I mean I guess it's a lot yeah you have options but you know what that does that makes this entire thing dirty can I have dirty hands any good look at that unscripted things are always dirty it's gonna be dirty in like no time you know what I mean yeah I guess you wouldn't get uh the light colored door card would you I would not I actually wouldn't what I would do is I would when I went online to Hyundai I would go to the uh ionic five pick the specs I want throw them away and then go on porsche.com in order to take in is that the where's this coming from I don't know the sensor was actually pretty good for you oh it's in the front it's like oh it's like a weird office oh oh no this one does that too Hondas do that yeah it's kind of loud too is it like Angelic yeah yeah because the Honda has that like voice of an Angel sound for its uh hybrids this is this is I don't know it's not it's not bad this this little folded paper thing is interesting what is that what is what is what is that that's just how their Dash is set up like that's for your miles per hour that's for your charge and whatnot this thing this looks like a winged maxi pad the accent outside though I really like the extra area of this car huh okay how big of a dog goes back there uh you could feed a German Shepherd but he won't be happy would biscuit like it oh biscuit just yeah it's uh is it a foot thing yeah aren't they all yeah aren't they all foot these days the foot fetish people it's big it's nice man that's what she said it's nice what's under here let's be the car Mobility kid it's not bad it's like a false floor that's not bad how much is that four is false I think it's not very false dude I love the digital tail lights I love that look at that that is awesome a halogen reverse light wow yeah do it again do reversed yeah it's halogen come on Hunt come on guys they're trying to cut costs maybe this car would have been seventy thousand if if it weren't for yeah yeah the margins had to be there yeah honestly it's a very it really is a good looking car it really is it has I like that a lot that's what makes this I guarantee you there was a stamping issue at the factory and they just said you know what let's just leave that in there run with that yeah I do like it I even like these you know what I mean it's it's really they did a good job did a really good job but look at these look a weird complex look at that what is that it's a random angle triangle there so many shapes I don't 60 Grand like it but I'm gonna do it by hand oh no oh that was an option yeah that's the most important I like how they do that how they shame you yeah yeah this is what you could have had you didn't get that did you you didn't get that what's the charge for it that's it it's got Braille on it now that's what five squares on this one the front lights the front oh I love that what game is that well there's squares everywhere that's a game isn't it Tetris I played a game called blocks yeah Tetris blocks whatever you call it that's that looks weird they did a really good job somebody deserves an award really good job oh there's no space here I I thought for sure there'd be a front I think we got spoiled when it comes to what's this EV IL it's letting you oh oh there is a frunk kinda yeah this is probably the sixth CD changer in here yeah in the rear or the yeah like seriously they're in the weirdest places you had to have a passenger to change your CD for you or somebody in the trunk if you kidnap somebody be like hey can you can you just switch the Phil Collins you might let me out yeah you like Huey Lewis in the news can you switch it to that please again they just the symbolism I don't even I don't I I'm I can't stand this newfound hey look I'm an EV I'm gonna have these super annoying door handles Tesla started this all I feel attention level High signifying how does it last break Force how does it know hmm what is this what are they recording is there a camera here like how does it know I don't know I'm still trying to play the game so there's four squares on the steering wheel yeah back by the charge port there's one on the door where's the two this three right here where is the two squares is this supposed to be a game is this like a fun Easter egg are you an eco mode I think so am I what's that how do you get out of eco mode drive mode there we go it's like it's a Porsche drive mode oh now it's in sport everything turns red oh this is awesome look at this so sporty oh that's a lot better yeah yeah all right that's not bad I mean it threw our backpacked in the back yeah the camera wasn't there yeah it's actually right down Okay so we're okay all right yeah it's actually not bad no real really isn't it level two attack to the AP one days of Tesla but sometimes that's not bad because when you see a bridge in the distance your car doesn't start crying and freak out that's a plus what does this do so those paddles are for regen holy that regen's pretty all right yeah that's kind of interesting it's the first time I've seen that oh wow yeah you can get the regime pretty strong also do you merely control the radio on on demand change oh that's so cool so if you're in like a really hilly area if you if you're a person that doesn't like driving a regen right here like right here oh that's kind of cool yeah that's a neat feature I'll give you that this no this is a really nice car again 60 Grand dude I got out of my pocket so this is the other problem run into right now as as Squirrely and as as uh hokey you want to get with it yeah you can't because this has to get home like we just passed three gas stations literally three gas stations ready why don't we just get all these yeah I have something to share with you you're probably wondering why I got all of these uh sweets at the um the gas station I'm actually working with a company that benefits children huh is the snacks in here a Christmas tree cake you just got candy for children okay for kids now stay with me whose kids are these for I send random treats to random kids throughout Massachusetts I work for I work with a private dentist practice what you do is after the kids consume the candies you'll see a mild spike in cavities and I get a kickback from there you know how I send them out ship station I don't normally send packages to kids because I'm not Santa Claus obviously it's also creepy chip station takes a lot of the guesswork out of this they make it 10 times easier to send out your packages Stephen they make it easy quick and convenient to send out these candies to those deserving children they automate time-sensitive shipping processes with an easy simple to use interface work with carriers all major characters UPS USPS even international shipping the work of all of our front stores our eBay front stores Amazon Etsy it's just a really awesome thing to use Stephen so you could put more time into doing the things like this for the kids it's a holiday season Stephen gotta get back to the children right I'm like a hundred thousand other sellers that use ship station small businesses like us could access the same rates that Fortune 500 companies do so go to shipstation.com Richmond builds to get a free 60-day trial you can do that right now makeshift happen it's the holiday season see are these for the children what film I didn't know that they did it yeah dude do the thing do the thing one finger one finger that's kind ah I get it you could use two I don't understand like why when would you ever use that why would you ever do that you use that Mark yeah like if you got your phone and you want to pull your phone out to open it up yeah you know what I mean you use the key fob just just when you have a tight who you hold two bags you have a car like this oh you're a butler that's sick oh is it a case you put on yourself yeah that's kind of sick so I have another one that's metal with the uh why does it do that I did that on the type on our tie can too like he's flashed for no reason until it dies does that cool man this is cool by the way this is Mark everyone and uh Mark was in the last video when he built his own model three he has since graduated from model threes apparently how does this compare to the model three Mark tell me fit and finish build quality yeah not even close not even close drivability handling yeah it's not even close you need to tell me that an economy EV couldn't keep up with this one not crazy that's crazy don't get me wrong I've had five Teslas since yeah we did that video yeah and I actually still have another model for you in Florida Tech is cool but as far as like driving it like I don't want to be an autopilot I want to drive the car yeah basically drive the car it's not even close to the handling dependability yeah charging yeah yeah it's an 800 volt charging right so I was charging my X when I was driving out because I traded my ex for this yeah in Pennsylvania model X yeah yeah I know I know so you know yeah so I'm charging you know and when I hit 30 yeah it comes out of the game great then it just comes down comes down this thing is an animal like it doesn't drop off really usually after like the the 20 25 it's just like yeah hammering at like 70 really not even close Electrify America and I watch all the videos like Kyle from out of spec and all these other guys that like go to Electrify America and we're looking for the handshake and it doesn't work and I go none of that really pulled up I plugged in went to the machine it said continue I hit that and boom then it just ramped up and it was just hammering that's awesome man and it doesn't drop off is there is there is there one around here is there one around here let's try America or no Chester yeah this is not a lot I forget it yeah we're in that part of New Hampshire it's just kind of like yeah they don't really yeah I mean they're already in the UK yeah you know what I mean how many kilowatts does a supercharger charge at like 250 right the 250 yeah really a lot of the many City Mini ones yeah really electrified America the 350 and like I'm telling you this was getting like 270. how many cars could support what kind of support for uh for kilowatts charging Max 300 yeah interesting no this is this is a mark congratulations Mark Mark very proud this guy was down here with now look at him now he's behind the mountain Rich you climb the mountain baby you got it out the mud love it Mark I love this pot when I created my test I got six grand more than one I paid for did you really yep and I drove it for two years you can't you do it with this one Mark probably not come down so what would what would this car cost if it was a Turbo S it'd be a 200 000 company yeah with the options that's what this has that's crazy this is beautiful now this is what an interior is supposed to look like remember the baby blue tie cam this is this is nice this is nice look at this look at this the matching red accents this is an interior not that great yeah that finger swipe oh wait wait she likes it like that she likes and three oh this is great was the back door too you have the foot kick on this one yeah we'll get this magic sleeted this is a bed Mark I'm doing these in the front door it's like a boy for the floor mats yeah oh Mark I don't do that Mark don't do that Mark Mark you were doing so well with the wheel you can't put that as formats good hopefully an oil tycoon very striking and futuristic looks and an overall great attempt by Hyundai now the UI wasn't really all that great but the power is good especially in sport mode you get about a five second zero to 60. now the car we tested was about 55 000 for the all-wheel drive version and it can easily get to 60 if you keep adding things now the ionic has an awesome 800 volt charging architecture for very very fast charging and it deserves to win every award it has so far it's a very cool nice refreshing newcomer now truthfully I'd rather have one over a model 3 and the tech in the ionic falls behind the model 3 but keep in mind the ionic Israel isn't that bad it does offer some really cool self-driving features similar to AP1 in the Tesla just less whiny now the ionic is a great price for an EV what I mean is unfortunately for the 55k mark You're cross shopping with other cars including gas it's not that great of a value compared to an Acura MDX it has more luxury and more features and more room the Pathfinder the Grand Cherokee the Volkswagen Atlas and a nicely equipped Audi Q5 the ionic handily gets its rear end pushed in by those cars offering more features for the same money but for an EV it is an absolute great car and I would happily drive one with no tint on it and be seen in it so before you ionic 5 and Kia ev6 owners get mad I really like your cars so much that I would buy one for my girlfriend and I would drive it every chance I get I will see you guys next week\n"
