Good car...windshield is cheaply made

Great value for money, warranties n gas mileage..55/mpg. Windshield is made of cheap materials...get windshield insurance that dealer offers, you’ll need it...also, rear hatch window could use a wiper...other than that the car is perfect.

59 MPG Rocks

Very happy with this vehicle - so happy that my spouse recommended it - I bought her one a few months earlier! Both vehicles are everything as advertised. Love the Apple CarPlay

Love everything about it

I don’t understand why the Ioniq has been a poor seller. It has great looks inside and out. I am 6’3” and it fits me very comfortably. I traded in a Sonata, which I loved and was concerned about roominess, ride, comfort and road noise, but have found all to be impressive. My first two tanks of gas yielded 55.9 mpg, which is the primary reason I bought an Ioniq.

Saving 50% on gas!

I like everything about it -- performance, comfort, styling. And especially the gas mileage. I've had it for a year, put about 15,000 miles on it, and am averaging just under 60 mpg (got 62 on one tank)!

Buy the Ioniq, NOT the Prius!

Bought a Prius new in 2002. It was a very reliable car. I think they should have improved the mpg a lot since then. I LOVE my new Ioniq. Got 62 mpg with the first tank of gas. Working on the second tank and getting over 63 mpg. And my driving involves hilly and flat terrain. I suggest using cruise control whenever you can and tread lightly on the gas pedal when starting from a full stop. Coast whenever you can.

I love this car!

I absolutely love my new Ioniq. It gets a great ride, accelerates well for 140 hp, and the mpg is AWESOME! I've only had it 4 days, so I'm still learning a bit about it, but I'm in love with it!

Excellent commuting car

I own a 2018 Ioniq Sel with technology package. Absolutely great commuting car. I drive 90 miles a day. Over 55 mpg in summer and 48 in winter. The car is comfortable, with plenty legroom. Android auto works great as well as the safety features. I would recommend to anyone with long commute.

My newest favorite car

As someone who runs a lot of miles in a year, this car's fuel efficiency is an absolute must. There is plenty of legroom for my passengers, both front and back set and I love the cargo space in the trunk. The styling is nice both inside and outside and I have fallen in love with the backup camera. My only complaint about the vehicle is the fuel economy only works on daily trips and in the warmer months as I lose about 10mpg when the winter fuel hits and I average about 40mpg when doing road trips (averaging about 75 mph).

Terrific fuel economy and incredible technology

I drive over 60K miles a year and fuel economy is important.. I am getting 55 miles MPG with this 2018 Ioniq. I also need comfort and appreciate technology. The Ioniq has both. I purchased a Limited with Ultimate package and could not be more pleased.
