It might be faster than you think. I was #112 in priority, built in January. Received email in early Jan to say that as of Jan. 10th, the car had been shipped from factory. After much research on vessel tracking websites, I managed to figure out it was on a ship that left Ulsan, Korea on Jan 13th and arrived in Vancouver Feb. 5th. They don't necessarily wait until the end of the month to ship. Your car might actually soon be on a ship over, if not already. So my guess is end March early April for your car.

I don't think so. But I can update once I take possession of my car. Maybe others can confirm?
May be give Electrify Canada a call - mention the USA promo
Hyundai IONIQ 5 To Come With 2 Years Of Free Charging On Electrify America Network (insideevs.com)
Absolutely no special canadian Ioniq5 charging deals

At least we don't have to deal with the ADM like in the States, that kind of helps make up for some (if not all) the charging costs
Funny you mention the ADM. I was at Hyundai this morning test driving an Ioniq 5. I asked the dealer about ADM. He said it was illegal in Canada. I wasn't aware of that.At least we don't have to deal with the ADM like in the States, that kind of helps make up for some (if not all) the charging costs
Did it make it to you yet?

My I5 has been delivered to Kingston Hyundai. It's now the showroom model. It's locked and signed as Sold.
AWD Preferred LR w Ultimate package. Lucid Blue Pearl.
Sales rep knows I'm out of the country and hope to be back in the next 3 weeks. It's snowing and they wanted to protect it by moving it into the showroom (with my permission). Technically, I still need to do a test drive and finalize negotiations on my trade in (2021 Kona EV). Initial offer was in the right ballpark.
Why trade in a 2021 Kona EV? Two reasons:
1. It's too small for my upper body height and noisy on the highways. Otherwise a great vehicle.
2. At the time I bought it, I wasn't aware of the I5. Had I known, I would've waited.
Cheers,
Steve

Your timing is perfect, and should receive maximum trade in value due to the shortage of EVs. Look forward to a picture or two when you get back, and of course a review on the AWD I5
Not yet! I was told there are delays in the Montreal port where the trains get unloaded and cars transferred on trucks. It is probably sitting there somewhere. I can't imagine it has not made it in the province yet... It has been over 3 weeks since it left Vancouver. I am getting impatient!!!
Update: My i5 arrived at the dealer today! They will prep it tomorrow and I will be picking it up early next week! Will post some pics and first impressions here.@E-Shark original offer of personal delivery probably would have been there last week
Received an email from the dealership today, my ultimate in black will be in early to mid April. Going in on the 1st to get my trade in assessed.
"FINALLY, I got the call"
You must be happy and relieved your new EV jewel is ready for p/u.
Personally I would not have been that patient, and probably camped out at the dealer drooling in anticipation
Haha! Yeah I was almost at that point! I ordered this thing on June 2nd! Never thought it would take so long ! Hope it will be worth the wait…"FINALLY, I got the call"

Thank your lucky stars if Hyundai doesn't have a website that pretends to show updated production and shipping status for your Ioniq 5 the way MINI does for the electric MINI Cooper SE.
We who waited many months for the delivery of our SEs wore out the F5 key refreshing that web page over and over. One goofy thing about that site is that when it tells you your car is At the Port, they don't tell you whether it's the port in the UK or the port in the US!
Then there are the websites that track the RORO (roll-on/roll-off) ships that carry the vehicles across the ocean. It becomes a curse if you are able learn on which ship your vehicle is a passenger. You have to pay if you want to track those ships when they aren't close to shore. Refresh, refresh, refresh. Still no change. Oh, the hours wasted!
