New car has arrived.... A little different than my previous Audi 8P RS3 (I will miss the noise of the Sports exhaust)

Reason for changing was more work mileage and the Audi was a decade old and I was putting 12k a year on it so inevitably it was getting to be an older car and maintenance was creeping up, having to service it twice a year wasn't very helpful either

So enter my (Leased) Hyundai Ioniq 5N, I'm sure people have seen the reviews on these and they are very highly regarded with good reason, its a technology powerhouse (never seen so much tech in a car) with the performance to match, certainly one of the most complete cars I've had, each drive can be a serene silent journey or with the fake gears a ridiculous laugh a minute lout

Not much spec with this, it has the pan roof which is nice and the colour is Soultronic Orange, I think it looks really good and contrasts lovely with the black

So getting used to electric, and the charging, which I hope to have a home charger fitted soon

I actually love the look of the car as well, but it is bigger than it seems! About Audi Q5 size

As I said on the other chap's thread about one of these. If I HAD to have an EV.. It would be one of these.

Looks decent, striking in that colour also.

These seem great, definitely the EV car I'd get if I was going to get one. What are the deals like on these at the moment, if you don't mind me asking?

First I've seen in that colour, great choice. The interior looks a nice place to be as well.

First one of these I've seen in red, looks absolutely brilliant! Not sure I'd trust myself (or my partner) to keep those wheels away from the kerb though eek

I don’t like EVs and think Teslas are hateful, but I quite like this and they are quick. How much do these go for on the monthlies ? Good choice OP.

Not a fan of EV at all, but that looks absolutely stunning!

A shade over 3 seconds to 60…
