So, it's been a year since my initial review. Overall I am much happier. There have been no problems since the one below (whew!) My only disappointment is the low MPG in winter. I understand a hybrid will lose some at colder temps but when temps are between -20 & 30 I am getting high 30's to mid 40's. Summer MPG are awesome and at time I am exceeding the Max for a Limited (57 MPG!). i have experienced some noticeable slipping when the trams shifts. it doesnt happen often and otherwise seems strong. I am a high miles driver and after a year i have about 42k. Seems to be going good, I will drive until the wheels fall off! I had a 2019 Ioniq Select but decided to trade up to a 2019 Ioniq Limited. I drove it 4 days, 468 Miles and had to call Hyundai Roadside Assistance because it wouldn't start. Bluelink showed "System normal, everythings fine". It went in the shop 4 days after MLK day, and now they are telling me a part is on international backorder and I cant drive it until March(sometime)! What the heck! Dealer has been most helpful with loaner, but I paid a lot of money for a car I cant drive! The shop says they have at least two more Limited's experiencing the same problem. I live in Minnesota and I'm not sure, with the Polar Vortex, if I feel comfortable driving a vehicle that will die and not have heat because a silly relay failed. I have over 500k miles on other Hyundai cars so I will give them one shot to get it fixed

This is by far the best hybrid value out there. If you're into drag racing this car is not for you. Pro reviewers assume we all want "performance" cars. This is not a powerhouse. It gets you there in style and comfort and for less money. 60 mpg is good enough for me.

I have been wanting a more economical vehicle for several years, but did not care for the style and ride of what was offered. Then I read about the Hyundai line of Ioniq vehicles and was impressed. I did much research and talking with several Hyundai dealers and finally made a deal for a white Ioniq Limited with the Ultimate package. I have had the Ioniq for almost a month now and have not been disappointed. I am averaging 50 MPG which I find very good for a brand new vehicle. On one road trip it managed 62 MPG. With a hybrid, one need to learn to drive differently to achieve good MPG. Some say the seats are not comfortable, but I am 210 pounds and I think they are just fine. I also think the handling and braking are good - not a sports car - but good. I am in my mid 70's but the road noise seems about normal for a vehicle of this class. The Ioniq is solid going over rail road tracks and bumps. It has most all of the creature comforts of vehicles costing twice as much. Three things I wish it had: rain sensing wipers, power passenger seat, and a hood that did not need a rod to hold it up. With the front seats in the position I would normally have them there is ample room in the rear seat for passengers. And of course it is loaded with all the safety and tech stuff, like lane keeping and departure warning, backup warning and camera, rear cross traffic alert, blind spot alert, adaptive cruise, dynamic bending headlights, navigation, Android Auto, Bluelink, Infinity Audio, memory driver's seat. The rear luggage area has plenty room for four passenger's luggage and because it is a hatchback it has more room than sedan of this size with a trunk. There is also some storage space under the luggage area floor. The Ioniq comes with an emergency puncture repair kit, but I ordered a space saver spare kit which fits nicely under the luggage compartment floor. The dealer experience, Crain Hyundai, of Conway AR, was the best. I told them what I wanted and they got it. There was no pressure to buy an extended warranty or accessories and it was delivered with a full tank of fuel.

after 7000 miles mostly freeway, transmission is completely at a lose finding correct gear at any steeper hill or bridge. you will Not get advertises mileage at highway [70mph] speeds. interior is noisy back seat area.no jack for you to plug flat tire. you must use fill kit which will result in very costly bill to replace tire and pressure sensor. interior & exterior very nice. unless you drive constantly sirius radio not worth price. rather have CD instead. costly to have pay toplay radio that sits in drive way. still like this vehicle more that the Prius we had. maybe after another 6 K miles will get used to it. would recommend to buy, we live in Florida so flat land little hills for transmission to go nuts. not a good buy for hilly travel. good luck whatever your choice.

Bad Experience overall - Ioniq 2019, repetitive suspension issue, column shaft replacement, and transmission replacement. This is the third time my car has to go for a warranty issue. 1. October 2019, an issue with the suspension with less than 6K miles and in less than 6 months. Defective right rear shock, that was replaced. 2. March 2020, second service, again an issue, this time with a defective speaker that was replaced 3. February 2021 (three more issues on my third visit) Two major issues identified, with 21K miles. Steering wheel column/shaft replaced. The transmission will need to be replaced. Due to a grinding noise upon deceleration. It sounds terrible. - and, again the same suspension issue in the rear back with a popping noise coming from the rear right, that technicians and service team hasn't been able to identify the problem. I am not happy at all with my purchase, when I took the decision to buy a new car was because I didn't want to deal with stress, discomfort, and worries about my family's safety. I don't think this is normal for a car with less than 2 years of use, and less than 22K miles.
