  1. Finally... possibly an option available with regular Ionic 5

    "We're confident the combined maximum output of the Ioniq 5 N's two motors will be very close to 450kW. Though it will weigh around 2.5 tonnes, its 0-100km/h time will be in the vicinity of 3.5 seconds.":)

    OMG! Hyundai admits they were wrong about aerodynamics keeping the rear window clean. I'd love to have been a fly on the wall in the meeting where it was decided to finally add the much-needed wiper. It should have at least been an option from the start.

    What's next cats sleeping with dogs, the Model 3 getting an instrument panel (or HUD) in front of the driver?

    if you run your hand along the top of the black area on the spoiler, you will feel the problem with the lack of clearing. The edge of the spoiler is design to push the air upward, rather then downward, hence no down force. How that go thru wind tunnel testing without someone noticing the error is beyond comprehension.

    I am not sure either, but there is a rainwater channel/grille? That's probably why they flipped it up.

    I’m hoping someone will come up with an aftermarket rear wiper for the I5. I’ll be first in line!
