The best EV (for me) (lemmy.world)

Hello! I just wanted to say that Hyundai Ioniq (first generation) is the best EV ~~for me~~

Reasons:

  • Quite cheap (compared to other EV's)
  • Great range (if only it mattered this much)
  • Good cargo space

And the most important thing

  • KNOBS! (oh god I hate and obsolutely despise touchscreen-only controls)

I acknowledge Nissan Leaf exist and I give it superiority over ioniq in design but only the pre-facelift model. Haha funny frog car. I love it :)

That's it. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

If you know any more EV's with knobs and buttons, share your sacred knowledge in the comments.

And yet they stopped making them! Pretty much every available Ioniq 28 or 38kwh in the UK had been used as a cab since new, so has 100k+ miles and a shiny steering wheel. I'm still tempted to get one, as they start at £5k but they will have been abused and will likely need a bit of work to get roadworthy.
