We rented an Ionic 5 for the weekend and I will be going back to gas because... uh, it's rented.

Real talk, though, we're trying to find a good EV because it is better. I don't particularly like the Ionic 5, but that's mostly a hatred for crossovers than anything; also the severe lack of clicky buttons and stuff like automatic mirror dimming that isn't working right. Ugh.

I just wish we had more options in the States, especially without the touch screen nonsense.

Edit to complain: finished our trip and EV charging stations are so hit or miss. People worry about range but that's not it-- it's the fucking apps, flex time pricing and 350 kW chargers only putting out 50 kW for mysterious reasons. This shit needs some serious regulation in the US, fucking yikes.

    I leased an Ioniq 5 SEL for three years and loved it (other than it being an SUV).

    When the lease ran out, I bought a used 2024 Ioniq 6 SE which has 360 mile range and almost every feature of the SEL. It was super cheap and it suits me even better than the Ioniq 5.

    It's probably worth checking out if you like EVs.
