Hyundai Ioniq 5

That wouldn't be very green by Eamonn?🤔🤔🤔

Looks like there could be even more delays. More issues with chips.

Anyone else having issues with Bluelink connecting at the moment. My app has not received info from the car in over two days and forcing a refresh gives a network error message.

Tronity has also not been able to get any info from Hyundai's servers either.

Ah cheers for that. Might try the reset and see if it helps.

Failing that, its due to the dealers for the parking brake recall in a week or two.

Many thanks for the advice. Sorted. The pinhole reset worked perfectly.

Hopefully mine will be fine after the recall work. I missed out on the OTA as I'd just updated manually when it started.

Now I just have to clean off what looks like vulture shite all over the windscreen!

The company are very good to deal with even though they mixed up my order initially.

So they will build a custom adaptor for you, I got a 5 metre cable with a twin gang 3 pin plug on the end but there are multiple lengths and options to choose from.

I would be slow to attach too many high load appliances though especially if you are going to be using extension leads.

I will be using mine to run a few lamps , phone chargers, Internet etc, nothing too heavy.

Finally gotten round to taking my 5 in for the recall software update today. Hopefully its done by 12.30 as I have clients to see all afternoon.

Nothing official yet, dealer said it's still due for Jan for myself and to expect an update in October about the build progress. I'm sure he was just telling me to just go away for a couple of months as he has not updates to give himself.

Cancelled my order, with the possibility of the grant being cut and the issues they had this year having to scrap chips(https://www.autoevolution.com/news/2022-world-car-of-the-year-in-trouble-due-to-defective-chips-195404.html) said id cut my losses and managed to get something available straight away. Pity as I was looking forward to it.

I bought a tesla model 3 out of inventory which meant that I had a date of delivery 3 weeks after I put down a deposit.

I really wanted an ioniq or an ev6 but literally no dealer has any real clue when they can deliver.

So I decided to just get into something that was a guarantee and would hold its value if supply ramps up on other makes I might swap out then

Otherwise each month I was throwing sway fuel costs and watching my trade in value go down too after which they could pull my pants down with the trade in value too

Are we foolish for holding out hope for a January 2023 delivery so?

I was talking to dealer earlier and he confirmed that my order (Executive model) will go ahead and may even be available in November. I placed order on 16 Jul.

He did say that some orders have been delayed until March 23 though.

I'd love to know if there was any solid information on orders for January. I placed my premium plus order in January of this year so really don't want to wait much longer. I haven't heard a thing since my order was cancelled and re ordered (MY23) in July. I'm tempted to go for one of the inventory Tesla's.

Ah, I'm with a Dublin dealership. Dunno if that is better or worse but have no info, but I haven't pushed for info to be fair.

The Hyundai website states that the Platinum model is eligible for the SEAI grant and lists the customer pays price as €54,315. That means car is 59k without the grant. I thought the grant max was 50k though. Is the website correct?
