The even odder part of this is the fact that it uses the excite opposite design language of the Ioniq 5. Not sure what the design language end game for Hyundai is here but you have the same line of EVs where one looks nothing like the other. That being said, I would take the Ioniq 5 over this or most other Eve, for that matter. Something about it just "clicks" for me other than the price tag lol.

The exterior is a bit of a mess. The profile looks like an Audi TT but with four doors and the front and rear can’t make up their minds what they are trying to be. The interior is nice and has a clean look to it though and of course, that super fast charging is a huge plus.

And I think the bigger point was missed there Olds. Yes, most cars require some head ducking to get in them. However, there are clear limitations to that and one should not have to duck but so far to get in these same cars or trucks (I will cite the current Camaro as an example of being one those cars).

No offense but that is a load of exaggerated horseshyte. I’m 5’10” and have never had any issues getting into any full size truck or SUV and that is without having to duck my head at all. I could bump my head, sure, but only if I jump up directly into the upper door jam lol.

Prior to this, three posts from me on the subject with over a half dozen each from you and him but whatever you say there Olds. I have literally said it was not a big deal and there is literally nothing defensive about that.

I am wondering where the X gets 30 extra cubic feet myself being that it’s basic dimensions are similar to the Lyriq. Something literally doesn’t add up.

A whole page of “it’s not really a big deal”. mmmkay folks. Hello? Please read my entire post regarding useful space and why some EVs need the frunk and some don’t. The Vette part isn’t even worth a response because you have misread that too. But hey, it’s not a big deal lol.

While folks are trying to bring up the Model X, it should be noted it also starts at TWICE the starting price of the Lyriq. Something about comparing apples to apples comes to mind here. The Model X also has next to NO cargo space if you are utilizing ALL three rows of seating. Your going to need that frunk if you are carrying seven in that thing. And, about the Mach-E, they wasted the frunk space in it completely.

It is a huge shrug. The competition, Audi E-Tron and Jaguar I-Pace have 2.12 and 0.95 of cubic space in their frunk respectively while having LESS overall cargo room with all the seats down. Sorry but they are not losing much on the frunk when you see this paltry numbers from the competition. What is going to go in that small frank that can't just go inside the car to begin with? Frunks are far more useful for the pick-up crowd IMO. The Vette needed all the extra storage space it could get whereas the Lyriq is not suffering at all for lacking due to having far more cargo room inside.

Happiest of Birthdays to you @Robert Hall!

I am just going to say this. For all of my various physical issues over the years, one of them is not my immune system. It has been like a tank and has kept me from getting sicker than most folks over the decades (have never had Strep, for example). Having said that, I still got both of my Moderna shots and then a booster six months later. Why? Because I am not just thinking of myself here. I am thinking of the people around me like my GF and her autoimmune issues. Just saying.

I must of missed that part a while back. That is a full "just sit this one out" moment, if you ask me.

I’m thinking at least one person here should be careful what they wish for unless they are just wanting to stay on troll island.

"likes", "disagrees", and "educated", etc reactions are all literally part of this site. If you have a problem with my (or anyone else's, for that matter) reactions, then I suggest that you take it up with the creator of this site. When you troll non-stop, as you have for the past month, and ignore actual facts then these are the "reactions" that you get. That doesn't make anyone "jacked". It means that perhaps they see through obvious trolling BS. Having said that, it seems like the only one "jacked" here is you and your need to interject and blindly defend Musk at every turn. See your endless and pointless trolling GIFs as evidence of these "jacked" moments.

And we just shake our heads at the fact that A.) He is not an "arch nemesis" and no one is "jacked" so save the exaggeration and B.) that you keep on ignoring that his "funding" was and continues to be a drop in a very large bucket of donors who have done FAR more than him in regards to helping out COVID research.

When you can't argue with facts and, instead, respond with trolling GIFs then you are not here for a discussion. You are here for trolling and nothing more.

I'd call it being "irony challenged" lol.

I believe the route (as I showed you in the graphic and link above) is that the research for that doctor could have come from ANY number of sources who donated more to the cause. IT IS that simple.

Not "anti-Musk". Most folks just aren't hurting their knees over his sensationalism. Sorry the facts above rain down on your bow down to Musk parade so much so that your only response is more trolling. Jack Dorsey and his $1 billion donation deserves FAR more credit for continuing and funding COVID research than Musk. Might want to watch blowing all that smoke up Elons posterior before he catches himself a case of recall cancer.

Notice the one name that is absent here but hey, that research would have never happened without Musk lol. Source:https://www.forbes.com/sites/hayleycuccinello/2020/04/15/jack-dorsey-bill-gates-and-at-least-75-other-billionaires-donating-to-pandemic-relief/?sh=706a671d21bd

MMMkay. Literally billions upon billions were donated worldwide in 2020 with the Musk Foundation contributing a whole $5 million towards it but okay, that research doesn't happen without musk lol.

And while we are at it, maybe we should just skip the part where Musk routinely spoke out against COVID prevention measures and shut down restrictions in 2020. Also skip where, despite the fact that Musk spoke out against COVID stimulus, his company still gladly took in $600 million for certain payroll benefits. F him and the hypocritical horse he rode in on.

With all this blind praising of Musk, one would think knee pads would be a good investment. Exactly. "Support" does not mean crap in this context. It's right up there with "thoughts and prayers" after a tragedy. Just words with no substance. All Covid research credit goes to the folks who ACTUALLY did the research and made strides towards controlling it via treatment and vaccine creation and implementation. Musk literally did none of that. Someone must be on a "pay by the word" retainer by Musk to constantly keep bringing him up in different discussion that aren't even about him.?

All of this plus a ton of room in the back with all the seats down and no sloping roof to cut off large items. I have hauled an entire loveseat in this, which simply could not have been done in any "car like" CUV with their sloping rooflines. My only regret is not getting a low mileage Eco-Boost model at the time, but that may change in the near future. I am waiting out this used car price hike craze currently consuming everything and then may hunt for a 2019-21 Eco-Boost Flex. What can I say? I like my wagons.

While I get the sentiment here, my Flex would disagree with your post 100%. Love owning it and love driving it, which can not be said for 95% of the CUV market out there. It also doesn't look like everything else out there, for good or bad. Just so we are clear though, I do TOTALLY get the sentiment here.
