does not deliver mileage that is advertised

Hyundai advertises that this car gets 35mpg combined, 33 miles on a full charge, and I believe 6.5hrs for a full charge on a 110v household outlet. It actually takes 12.5 hours to fully charge although I haven't been able to test this because when I try to plug into my home outlet, charger notes "fault" even though I was previously able to charge my prius prime in the same outlet. (which by the way, toyota advertises only 25miles per charge but I actually got 34 miles per charge running on pure electric). I am, however, able to plug in the car at work. During my 8.5hour work shift, the car notes that I get 20-22miles of electric. My commute home from work is 23miles. I use up ALL of the electricity PLUS another 20 miles of "gas". This is nearly twice what Hyundai advertises or claims. Also, the key on your phone will not work if you have an iPhone. I also think the navigation and back up camera is not as good as the prius prime. The things I like about this car are that it looks nice and there is a satellite camera or at least there is one with the limited model that I have.

Small gas tank with nice design

My main complaint for this model is the fuel tank, and if you are doing long-distance travel, you have to stop every 300 miles; it only holds 11 gallons, that's ridiculously small for an SUV. I bought the limited version because of the big touchscreen navigation display, but I cannot use android auto google maps on full screen; for some reason, it shows a sidebar with the Android auto logo, which is a waste of screen space. Also, it takes forever to charge with the included charger at home. It is supposed to charge in about 10 hours, but currently, it takes more than 26 hours.
