Mostly great, a few annoyances
I was solving for range, so I targeted the SE RWD, but since Hyundai won't let one order a specific build -- despite having a web site to pretend -- I had to get an SE AWD, since RWDs aren't sent to the northeast.
I later found that one can get back the range hit in the higher trims by replacing the wide 20" wheels with 18" wheels, had I know that at the time I would have sought a Limited.
What the SE doesn't give me:
- wireless phone charging
- wireless carplay (but then, no trim has it)
- panoramic camera
- passenger power seat
- rear AC outlets and heat
- State of charge reflected in the four squares on the front end. Apparently only in higher trims. This is just petty.
Now as to the issues with the car I have:
- The carplay display is annoying, I can have the screen split between a map app and Music, but Music doesn't show me anything. It should show the album art and album/song titles. This is a bug.
- No rear washer/wiper
- The rear camera is very, very prone to water / snow sticking to it. It should have an overhang to protect it. Maybe even a heater.
- We didn't get the digital side mirrors in the US, so I have these stupid plastic fins instead.
- When I charge at a DC station, I have to cycle the car on/off multiple times before it will let me shift into D. It'll shift into N just fine, which means the car is rolling, without being on and under power. This is a serious safety issue.
- Why is the steering wheel animal leather??
