I've owned an ID.3 for almost 3 years, I've charged on public chargers maybe 3 times, every other charge has been done on my driveway. I have absolutely no "range anxiety", my car has a WLTP of 330 miles, but obviously never see that, more like 280-300 depending on temperature on a max charge (which I rarely do!). In all my years driving various new cars, I never had so many people approach me as I had within the first year of owning the ID.3. Some of them were just interested to see the car, but a large number just couldn't help to give snide comments, usually uneducated and completely wrong. Recently, a car near me caught fire on the road, of course everyone on Facebook thought it was an EV, even though EVs have a far lower chance of catching fire than ICE cars... Turned out it wasn't an EV. But it's the same old uneducated folk talking about something they know nothing about. I honestly think a lot of people are simply jealous, EVs have been very expensive and are still quite expensive compared to their ICE counterparts. The only way people can make themselves feel better is by spreading misinformation. I'm certain that anyone who lived with an EV for a week would not want to go back to an ICE car at the end of it--EVs are far cheaper to run and way nicer to drive.

That's awsome. Love seeing this content ❤ looking to have a home set up similar in nz.

Love your longer form content!

Loved the bit about the weight of EVs being about the same as ICE cars. Lots of misinformation around that 😊

Great car and good option in the EV space. It is so true once you go EV, you can never go back. Just completed a 630km road trip and I'm fairly sure we did not touch the brakes a single time!

I would love one of these

Increase in sales YTD 24 over YtD23. Great news.

Nice video... Simple... ask an owner

Great cars, but it's a shame that Hyundai dealerships are rubbish and a big letdown. Overrun, under staffed, have to wait a month for the cars to be booked in for repairs. They then have the car for another month without a courtesy car, as they don't have enough of them and the cars come out from service and repair work with other problems that they didn't go in with. I'm selling my Hyundai EV and trying another brand.

We love driving my partner’s Ionioc 5. Beautiful EV and so spacious inside. Amazing pick up, love the feathered breaking. Would definitely recommend this vehicle . Just need the rear wiper.. How odd they did that. 😮

Want one!

Good cars are keepers not ones you keep changing every few years even if you have the money. They are highly depreciating but It's not environmently friendly to keep changing for newer ones. Surely a vehicle without a rear wiper is a hazard and shouldn't be allowed on the road.

42, its the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything!

And the media will continue to tell us no one wants them 😅

EVs are a scam only stupid people get one

Love kei trucks!

Tesla Model 3 has no rear wiper either. Its not ideal but also not a deal breaker.

Excellent seeing these early adoption cars.

Cute go cart! Love it! Gosh we thought we were early adopters with our first EV in 2014. Rob wins! Agree with comments about health and vehicle exhaust. Major studies show strong correlation between air quality and dementia.

IMIEV's successor is EK X(cross) EV. That's if you want one. It's a great small city commute car.

Great video. I echo every point made except I don’t miss the rear wiper as the digital mirrors are wonderful. I love my Ioniq 5.

That boots 440 litre bigger then a q2 boot

Why don't Hyundai do what Lexus did with their RX450h, the rear wiper on the Lexus is completely hidden in the rear spoiler.

Love your work #Electrify_This

Interesting video thanks and hello Rob! Great to see the iMIEV still going strong but what happened to the Japanese manufacturers and EVs is astonishing (like not much!).

What a great interview and great project! Love the colours (and the whole deal!) Recycling, overhauling, reimagining!

What a generous interview with the worlds best shopping trolley - love it!

I have a 2016 IMiev and just love it. I keep thinking of getting something which offers better range, but I don't really need it. What I love about the IMiev is the super roomy interior yet a very small exterior footprint which gives me more parking options, better maneuverability, and gives more room for cyclists/pedestrians when passing. I also love the fact that with only a 16KW battery, it's way better for our planet.

As an Ioniq 5 driver. I love this car. I usually don’t like driving SUVs but this thing is amazing. I have home charging. It’s great

No hype. Just a great review from an actual owner. Well done, Sarah.

Thanks another happy EV owner

Great video - thanks

Love everything as discussed, but it’s not the prettiest EV! 😉

Love it ❤ you’re the best

Toot toot beep beep!

Good on Phil!

Thanks Sarah and Phil great tour and love the authenticity 😍

So impressive ladies!!!!

Great to hear from actual owners!

Brilliant! Cant wait till ev cars are everywhere!

What fantastic young women to even want to do this..what a ride

OMG I love that car! so cheap, so manoeuvrable. that guy looks familiar.

Need more EVs around

Great video EV owners are the best 😊

Love the video thank you

I have a 2018 honda crv and I never use the rear wiper but the slope is more like 90 degrees. Maybe they could just do something like that?

It wasn’t exactly clear what the project was from the introduction but I assume it is a long term project to convert and restore a truck into an EV. It is great to see such young people building something rather complex and forward thinking.

Love this video and love your TikTok !!!

This would be a perfect car for me to run around Canberra in. If it had a great range I would just replace my ICE car with one like this. I don't use my car often but when I do it is either to run to the other side of town or visit family interstate.

Super cute 😍
