Hyundai

<p>Hyundai Ioniq 5 is the Korean carmaker’s first ever fully dedicated battery electric car. It is built on a unique platform, e-GMP (Electric Global Modular Platform) developed by Hyundai and Kia together.</p>
<p>Compared to <strong><a href="https://www.licarco.com/2021-tesla-model-3-performance/">Tesla Model 3</a></strong> and <strong><a href="https://www.licarco.com/polestar-2-long-range-dual-motor/">Polestar 2</a></strong>, Ioniq 5 looks like a boxy hatchback, Hyundai calls it a crossover. Fastest Ioniq 5 can go from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.2 seconds. It has a moveable center console on the inside, safety features like blindspot indicator, lane keeping, and remote parking capabilities.</p>
<h2><strong>Ioniq 5 Performance</strong></h2>
<p>Ioniq 5 has two battery pack options, Standard Range version offers 58 kWh capacity, whereas Long Range models will be equipped with a 77.4 kWh battery. Hyundai also offers two drivetrains for both of these battery options. RWD has a single electric motor and up to 217 horsepower. Those who wants to get more power will choose the AWD option for dual motors and up to 306 HP. It can tow a caravan up to 1,600 kilos of weight.</p>
<p>The stalk behind the steering wheel allows driver to easily change gear, put the vehicle on parking mode etc. Ioniq 5’s smooth driving experience will improve with very clever blindspot indicator feature. Whenever you put an indicator on, cameras from the each side of the vehicle will show you the blindspots, making Ioniq 5 much more safer to drive. There’s also a head-up display (HUD) that includes the vehicle’s speed, navigation etc.</p>
<h2><strong>Ioniq 5 Design and Features</strong></h2>
<p>In terms of appearance, Hyundai Ioniq 5 looks like a hatchback, but it’s actually a crossover, or an all-electric CUV. When Hyundai designed the new Ioniq 5, they took a lot of inspiration from the first vehicle they actually manufactured. It is the Hyundai Pony from the 1980s. It has got a very interest retro design, standing out from the crowd with its boxy shape. The headlights and taillights which use square shaped LEDs are also retro styled.</p>
<p>In profile, Ioniq 5 has an enormous wheelbase of over three meters, longer than a Range Rover Sport, which give this electric Hyundai plenty of space inside.</p>
<p>On the front of the vehicle, there is a little frunk, enough for a few grocery bags or a backpack, not even close to the capacity Teslas and <strong><a href="https://www.licarco.com/ford-mustang-mach-e-gt/">Ford Mustang Mach-E</a></strong> offer.</p>
<p>The interior of the new Hyundai Ioniq 5 is as unique as its exterior design. Modular design allows Hyundai to equip its new vehicle with two 12 inch displays, one for the full-touch infotainment system, and the other acting as a digital gauge cluster. Thanks to its long wheelbase and flat floor, Ioniq 5’s center console can slide back almost 15 centimeters, creating a spacious car experience for the driver and passengers.</p>
<p>The Ioniq 5 got five USB ports, a 220V outlet for any tools and gadgets you want to power, a glove draw instead of a traditional glovebox, seats that can be almost fully recline, Bose sound system etc.</p>
<h2><strong>Ioniq 5 Range and Charging</strong></h2>
<p>Ioniq 5 has the fastest charging technology in its segment. There are two charging systems, 400 volt and 800 volt electrical arcitectures available for the Ioniq 5. With the highest setup, all-electric CUV can be charged with 350 kW DC plugs, from 10 to 80 percent in roughly 18 minutes.</p>
<p>There is also the V2L (Vehicle to Load) feature that turn Ioniq 5 into a power source for your electronic devices, and simple tools that can be powered via a simple outlet. It allows a charging speed up to 3.6 kW. It is even possible to charge another electric vehicle with Hyundai Ioniq 5.</p>

<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">BMW iX is the first electric SUV that was originally designed as an electric vehicle by the German carmaker. They call it an electric SAV, a term that refers to the Sport Activity Vehicle concept. It has three drivetrain options, xDrive 40, xDrive 50, and the sportier version M60. BMW iX comes with an all-wheel-drive dual-motor system that produces up to 600 horsepower, 765 Nm torque, offers 200 km/h (~124 mph) top speed. There are two battery options for the iX, one with 71 kWh, the other with 105.2 kWh capacity. It can travel up to 630 kilometers (390 miles) on a single charge.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">BMW iX is currently being manufactured in Dingolfing, Germany; it will be available to order later in 2021. It will also be the first electric SUV that BMW will import to the United States. The price of the iX will start from €77,300, more powerful, and higher range version xDrive 50 will of course cost more.</span></p>
<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces="true">BMW iX Performance</span></strong></h2>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Base model BMW iX xDrive 40 comes with two electric motors delivering 326 HP, 630 Nm torque, 0-100 km/h in 6.1 seconds. It has the smallest battery option available for the iX. With its 71-kWh battery, xDrive 40 offers a range of 425 kilometers when the battery is full.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">The more powerful version, the iX xDrive 50 offers 523 HP, 765 Nm torque, and a big 105.2 kWh battery pack. 0-100 km/h acceleration in 4.6 seconds and top speed is the same as the base model, electronically limited to 200 km/h.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">BMW will also unveil a sporty version of the vehicle called BMW iX M60 which will carry the M Performance badge. M60 will produce more than 600 horsepower and it will go from 0 to 100 km/h in less than four seconds.</span></p>
<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces="true">Design and Features</span></strong></h2>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">BMW uses a very different ‘kidney grille’ on this electric vehicle. The fully closed front end is wrapped with a unique digital pattern that looks three-dimensional. LED headlights are narrower and taillights even slimmer than any other BMW car.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">The hood of the iX does not open, so no frunk to see over there. One of the quirkiest features of the car is that the front BMW logo can be opened and used to fill up windshield water, as there is no hood area to put necessary stuff like this one.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">It is the first BMW SUV that comes with frameless door windows which overall create a sporty vibe around the design. Very uniquely crafted door handles also carry that vibe. When you use Tesla’s or other hidden-type door handles, in order to open the door, you have to push one side and the other side will pop up, and then you hold on to that part to open the door. The Chinese designer of the iX made use of a much simple door handle mechanism. It looks flat, but you don’t have to push or pull things, just approach your fingers below the slim opening of the handle and the door will open.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">On the interior, there is a curved panel sitting beneath the hexagonal-shaped steering wheel that houses a digital gauge cluster and infotainment system. Screen sizes are 12.3 and 14.9-inches respectively. It sure looks much more technological than the iX’s little brother BMW iX3.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">iX also comes with Bowers &amp; Wilkins sound system which packs a total of 30 speakers around the interior. The sound experience is beyond any BMW car available right now, and as all of the engine sounds composed by the famous Hans Zimmer, driving the car will be a joy to your ears.</span></p>
<h2><strong>BMW iX Range and Charging</strong></h2>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">BMW uses two different battery packs for this electric SAV. iX xDrive 40 version has a 71-kWh battery, xDrive 50 and M60 on the other hand will take advantage of a much bigger 105.2-kWh battery pack.</span></p>
<p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">DC charging speed also vary depending on which iX version you get. xDrive 40 supports 150 kW DC charging, 10-80 percent in 31 minutes. xDrive 50 and M60’s DC charging rate will reach up to 200 kW. From 10 percent charge to 80% will take 35 minutes, as they use a bigger battery than the base model.</span></p>

<p>Kia e-Niro is an affordable electric SUV which has been on the market since 2019. It has two battery variants: e-Niro 39 kWh and e-Niro 64 kWh. Big battery option also comes with a more powerful engine producing 204 HP. Niro EV with the small battery pack only produces 136 horsepower.</p>
<p>The 2022 Niro EV -as Kia America calls it- is only available with the 64-kWh battery, starts at $39,999. Newest and cheapest e-Niro in the Europe has a price around €35,000. It is rebadged with the new Kia logo, but exterior-wise nothing has changed in the new year model.</p>
<h2><strong><u>Performance</u></strong></h2>
<p>e-Niro has a single electric motor located in the front. 39 kWh version can produce 136 HP, while bigger battery model has 204 HP. It is enough for getting from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.8 seconds with the e-Niro 39 kWh and 7.8 seconds with the 64-kWh version. Torque figures are the same at 295 Nm.</p>
<h2><strong><u>Design and Features</u></strong></h2>
<p>Kia e-Niro has been using the same exterior design since its launch in 2019. It has a textured and also fully closed front grille, charging port is also located in this area.</p>
<p>Kia used hard plastic materials when designing the lower parts of the interior. It feels cheap and doesn’t look sturdy. It can be acceptable for a price tag equivalent to ordinary gas-powered Niro’s, but battery powered e-Niro is not cheap and spending all those money to find cheap materials on the inside will definitely disappoint some drivers.</p>
<p>Base model e-Niro 2 has an 8-inch infotainment display, while upper trims e-Niro 3 and e-Niro 4+ comes with a 10.25-inch touch display. These two trims also include wireless charging pad for smartphones. 7” digital gauge cluster and Android Auto &amp; Apple CarPlay support are standard for all trims.</p>
<h2><strong><u>Range and Charging</u></strong></h2>
<p>Both e-Niro 39 kWh and e-Niro 64 kWh support 100 kW DC charging and they can be charged from 0 percent to 80 percent in 54 minutes. The new Kia e-Niro 4+ is the first model to include an 11-kW AC on-board charger, it takes only 7 hours to fully charge the car. Other variants only have a 7.2 kW charger which is enough to get from 0 to 100 percent charge in 9 hours.</p>
<p>e-Niro can travel 289 kilometers with a fully charged 39 kWh battery. Range estimates increase to around 455 km when you choose the 64-kWh battery option. e-Niro is not the fastest or the most comfortable car, but it does offer quite a good range for the price.</p>

<p>Kona Electric 2021 is the new facelifted version of Hyundai’s mid-range electric SUV. It has about the same price tag with Tesla Model 3 SR+. But Kona Electric will give you more range, 415 kilometers thanks to its 64 kWh battery pack.</p>
<p>Hyundai has been producing the Kona Electric since 2018, and yet last year was very struggling for the all-electric SUV because of battery issues causing accidental car fires. But 2021 model does not affected by any ongoing recalls and battery fire warnings.</p>
<p>2021 Kona Electric is available in United States, UK, Australia and most of the Europe. Small SUV will also be coming to Turkey in late 2021.</p>
<h2><strong>Exterior and Interior Design</strong></h2>
<p>Hyundai Kona Electric looks very similiar to its combustion engine rivals. The ordinary SUV exterior design and the simple interior setup are not as unique as Tesla’s design choices.</p>
<p>With the new 2021 model, Hyundai switched to a smoother look on the front of the Kona Electric. Exterior styling-wise, the new front look, new alloy wheels, reshaped bumpers are the main differences between 2021 and 2020 Kona Electric models.</p>
<p>2021 Kona Electric includes a new 10-inch fully digital gauge cluster display, apart from the last year’s infotainment screen with the same display size and a new, a smoother software. New version of the Kona Electric also has the Harmon/Kardon sound system instead of Infinity.</p>
<h2><strong>2021 Kona Electric Performance</strong></h2>
<p>There is only one electric motor option for 2021 Kona Electric, front wheel drive motor unit produces 201 horsepower and 395 Nm of torque. It can go from zero to 100 km per hour in 7.6 secounds, very decent for this price range.</p>
<h3><strong>Is Kona Electric AWD?</strong></h3>
<p>Hyundai Kona Electric is not an AWD (all wheel drive) vehicle. It has only one drivetrain option, single motor FWD. But Hyundai has an AWD all-electric vehicle available right now: Hyundai Ioniq 5. This new battery electric car has two AWD version with Standard and Long Range battery packs.</p>
<h3><strong>Can Hyundai Kona Electric Tow?</strong></h3>
<p>Kona Electric is capable of towing up to 2,800 pounds or 1.270 kilograms. But Hyundai does not recommend towing with the vehicle, because getting rear ended while towing could damage the battery pack and cause a fire. Drivers should keep that in mind and must be very cautious when towing with the Kona Electric.</p>
