0:00 - Intro

BAD:

0:46 - Range

IOniq 5 - 260 in AWD
MachE - 312 in California Route 1 (big battery AWD)
ID4 - 255
EV6 - up to 282 mi w/ awd if you DONT go for the GT Line
BZ4X - 228
Polestar 2 - 276 mi (302 according to WLTP)
Model Y - 330 mi


3:00 - Power

The IOniq 5 and EV6 bring 320 hp
Then the ID4 squeaks just over at 330
Then there’s the MachE CA Route 1 making 346
From there comes teh Model Y approaching 400 hp
And the Polestar 2 is the most powerful over 400 hp
And, of course, on the other end of the spectrum is the BZ4X with a mere 214 hp


4:05 - Price

You can spend as little as 41,600 for an Ioniq 5 - as tested here the car is 58,000 which is quite a bit, but trying to create a level playing field we actually see that it’s pretty competitive on price
BZ4X - 45,400
ID4 - 47,800
Model Y - 49,000
IOniq 5 - about 49,200
EV6 - 49,850
Mach E - 46 small battery, 50, big battery
Polestar 2 - 54,300


5:45 - Trunk Space

The IOniq 5 has 27.2 cu ft of trunk space with the seats up
THe EV6 & Polestar 2 are the only ones with less trunk space
The seats do fold nice and flat, but it is on the lower end of the segment it has to be said


GOOD:

6:26 - Charging time

If you can find a DC charger that’ll do it, you can charge the EV6 and Ioniq 5 from 10-80% in under 18 minutes - no one else is doing that…not even Tesla
