Good car with excellent fuel economy. Drives more like a normal car than Prius prime when in hybrid mod. It also has better interior and body looking than Prius.

I don’t recommand this car. Problems : entertainment unit, water pump, 2 sensors and the regenerative breaking system have been changed and the car has 23000km... never buy this shitty car.

Ioniq hybrid plug-in saga

This car is new on US market and all claims about its performance come from the manufacturer. It can drive 30 miles pure electric and than small engine started and you can drive 650 miles on one tank of gas. Sounds very attractive! My personal problem with Ionig plug-in is that number of cars on dealerships is very limited and all cars marked up $2-3K over MSRP. I was not able to find silver Ioniq plug-in within 100 miles radius. This car has no discounts from dealership/manufacturer at all! There is a federal tax credit $4500, but it is not clear if it is applicable to 2019 model. When I called IRS, they suggested to apply and see what happens. Bottom line - interesting car, but overpriced and limited options available at dealerships.

Ioniq is a Great transportation pick. Everyone has a bone to pick..........so understand that all won't be ideal, yet when the toll is gathered at the end of the day, you got where you needed to be with the least inconvenience and cost.

I like the 2019 Ioniq plug-in a lot but...

I always wanted a hybrid vehicle and noticed this Hyundai plug-in online, which had been sitting on the lot for a year. I like that I can plug it into any old GFCI outlet, which I happened to have outside, and get great gas mileage. I did have to have it jumped about 2 years ago and then recently. Turns out it needed a new "glass mat" battery which are not plentiful right now, so I waited 2 weeks. It's definitely a learning curve owning one. I plan to get a trickle charger if it's idle for any length of time.
