Not surprising. I've honestly absolutely loved my Ioniq 5 (SEL AWD for those curious). My city operates fairly cheap chargers on the ChargePoint network ($0.21/minute) that are basically my saviour since I don't have a charger installed in my condominium.
I want one. My worry is what to do once the battery needs replacing? I wonder what it would cost?
Lease it
I've thought about it, but I know little about leasing. Not to mention I tend to keep my cars for 15+ years. At least so far, anyway.
I don't fully understand how leasing works. I've seen they want a down payment plus a monthly. Which seems like a lot of money for a car you aren't keeping.
