Hyundai Ioniq 5

podge1979

Anyone expecting delivery in de whest. Passed a transporter heading the Galway direction this morning with Hyundai's, had a few ioniq 5's on it. Hard to say if execs or platinums as had the plastic covering on the wheel trims.

Who would be the best dealer to deal with in Dublin in terms of Ioniq5 delivery times and attitude towards customers? Thank you.

Just reading about the Ionity premium subscription on the UK forum, afaik the subscription starts once you activate your card, can anyone confirm?

I don't plan on activating mine until I am ready for a long journey.

I used the UK version, and you had to pick your activation date when registering. You can put a date in the future thought (I put mine down for the day we sailed to France for summer holidays)

Hutton and Meade Hyundai Ballycoolin (get there via N/M2 or thru Finglas/Cappagh Hospital) are awesome. I’ve an Ioniq 5 on order, arriving this month for a 231 reg. But I may now have a Nissan Ariya so may be cancelling the Ioniq 5…

Alan Clark in Hutton & Meade highly recommended

I don’t work for them btw 👍

What spec/colour is the one you're thinking of cancelling?

I have one on order from them but not going to be here until March.

Corporatemarky

It’s the 58 kWH Premium. Cyber grey. Very few Ariyas. Garage told me yest (and for a number of weeks been consistent) that total uncertainty about Ariya deliveries in 2023.

Whats the current wait on Top Specs? Thanks

ongarite

You talking about Platinum & Premium Plus?

Probably March at the earliest & that might only be a cancellation.

I would have thought manufacturers (not just Hyundai) would prioritise the top end sales as when they only have limited chips (meaning sales) they would try to extract most value as possible

Did any of you purchase the Supagard treatment from the dealership? What are your thoughts about it may I ask?

footballrusty

Let me know if you are - I will take it! What spec/colour is it??

I believe this question is for me. It's a Platinum Mystic Olive. Yours?

Have got Supagard / similar paint treatments last few new cars. Can’t say exactly what it does but all the cars come up stunning when cleaned…haven’t had interior staining so can’t say much abt the inside.

Emphatically told them we didn't want or wouldn't pay for any extras on our early 2022 Executive, but they still put on the Supagard anyway.😂

Not sure of the benefit but car paint still looks great anyway. Not sure about the interior treatment, was a bit too glossy and seemed to cause water marks if inside trim got wet, but at least seems to be wearing off by now.

Personally I would prefer to give my cars a coat or two of a good wax such as Collinite 845 a few times a year and would not pay for a treatment such as above.

Does anyone know if cars are in storage in Cork port from the last ship? I'm told my car is ready and waiting in Cork until January

yer man!

Does the executive plus trim come with auto dimming rear view mirror? Or is it a lever job thing?

oscarBravo

My exec plus has a lever job thing. I actually find I don't need it much, as the back window tint mostly takes care of glare.

Do you think there's anything in the upper trims that you think the executive plus should have? Or anything you miss in it?

oscarBravo

Hmm, I haven't looked at the spec comparisons since before I bought back in February. I was a bit taken aback by the mirror lever thingy, but it hasn't really been an issue. I was a wee bit surprised not to have wireless Android Auto also, but I don't think that's an option on any spec level and again I haven't missed it as much as I thought I would.

Oh yeah: no front bumper parking sensors. That really took me by surprise on a car of this price.

D_D

I think the lack of wireless Android Auto is down to the screen size. Anything over 10" apparently needs additional licenses from Google for it to be wireless, hence Kia and Hyundai's are wired AA...

Seurat

No front parking sensors is definitely a big thumbs down. For this price anyway

That is a PITA at times. Especially cos it's a bigger car than it looks.

yer man!

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119968354#Comment_119968354

Are they on any trim level, I can't see it mentioned on the spec list at all

oscarBravo

I couldn't live without rear sensors, but front I've learned to cope without.

ongarite

Front park sensors are Platinum spec and above.

Do you find you're comfortable knowing where the front of the car is when parallel parking in a tight space? My one thing I'm worried about when the car comes is swiping a front corner in that scenario.
