what I would expect from a new car of the price

So far pretty impressed first electric/gas vehicle owned went from $50.00 tank of gas every two weeks to $18.00. Though not a 6 cylinder vehicle it has all the get up and go needed, always responds instantly and with enough power when wanting to accelerate . Appreciate the safety blind spot warning system provided as well as back up camera and warnings that emanate when danger exists. Bluetooth and media plug in sources are plentiful and also appreciated, automatically connects to my cell phone when getting into car, car speakers and car microphone make conversation extremely clear and concise. Kudos to designers for their attention to details. One thing though, for cost of the vehicle, I think the back cargo area should automatically include the cargo cover with cost of vehicle. Hyundai personnel (all dealt with, especially Mr. Smiley the salesman) salesman, managers, service personnel etc. at Tony Hyundai Waipio in Hawaii were all 5 star people. Mahalo

Great money saver plenty of space and I have two children stroller and groceries. It drove very smooth very quiet. Very precise tight turns and comfortable seating plenty of leg room.

Superb all around vehicle

I love the hybrid Ioniq. Looks like a sports car yet saves a ton of money on gas. Handles well on the road and in the rain too.

Fuel efficiency combined with elegant design

Driving around town at 57 miles to the gallon was once a fantasy until I bought the Ioniq. It?s also beautifully designed and very comfortable to drive

Best Value Considering Travel

The car drove smooth with a lot of leg room. Going from residential to highway driving the car displayed an impressive power. Loved the tech package!

Love it

Our first hybrid and we are thrilled. Smooth ride, clear controls, great media and QUIET!! I love getting 60 mpg, especially now that gas is 3+ dollars a gallon. Amazing.

Excellent Mileage!

Had the car for 2 weeks and the car has been great. We average 60-64mpg so far driving around Phoenix in the 100+ heat with AC set at 71-72.

Great Bang for the Buck!

I've only had my Ioniq a couple of weeks, but I like it a lot. I get a big kick out of trying to drive economically enough to get even better MPG than the rated value.

I LOVE my New Ioniq Hybrid!!

I have not purchased a new car for over 10 years. This car was an easy choice once I test drove it. Tommy, the amazing salesman at Capitol Hyundai, was patient with me and explained all the bells and whistles that I was unfamiliar with, but they were all standard features in the car. Not only do I rate the Ioniq Hybrid a 10, I also rate the incredible team of sales people and financing people a 10 as well! I would definitely recommend a Hyundai as your next car!
