I was one of those that didn’t really care for the design when I first saw photos online, but I ran into one for the first time in person at an EA station two days ago and it looked so much better. I prefer the Ioniq 5 design since I like the hatchback look, but I was impressed.
I still think Hyundai made a mistake in not offering the smaller wheels and more range with the top trim on the Ioniq 6.
I'm one of the weird people who liked the look when I saw photos but was underwhelmed a bit when I saw one in person. There's one always parked outside my favorite taco shop and I have a habit of ogling it on my lunch break lol.
As much as the extra range of the Ioniq 6 would be nice, the 5 is more than good enough for road trips (as long as CCS continues to exist at least) and is more practical everyday. And looks so much cooler IMO.
