My Hyundai Ioniq 9 Calligraphy in Ionosphere Green with Black interior

I love everything about my new electric Hyundai Ioniq 9. I'm still learning about all the things it can do and read the manuals several times a week. I wasn't pleased when I noticed the back door lower panel shows small indentations around the areas where the metallic-looking 'Ioniq 9' letters are imprinted onto that back panel. Likewise, I think it must be a manufacturing error, but the dealership I purchased it from is willing to do little to help me correct it. In the past two weeks I've noticed a whining noise coming from the right front tire motor area. I have a sound file of that sound, which increasingly gets louder, but I see no way here to attach that sound file. I have an appointment scheduled after I went in to my local dealership so they could look at it. It bothers me that my local dealership really doesn't know much about the new Ioniq 9 electric vehicles. They told me it is just the sound of the electric motor, which I know isn't true because it hasn't made that sound until the last few weeks. I'm worried that they don't yet have the skill and knowledge to fix it, so I wonder where I can go next, or what I can do next, to get the noise repaired. I suspect it is the right front motor that is making the noise (I have a motor on each of the 4 wheels). HELP! Where can I take my car to someone or some place that is an expert in fixing my electric car?

Amazing vehicle for the money!

It's a fantastic vehicle to drive. Feels super luxurious for far less money than a Cadillac. Disappointed in the lane-centering and the lack of level 2+ hands-free apparently not in development for the '26 vehicle. Autonomous driving is the future so being able to market a vehicle that is ready for that is a must for our next purchase (3 year lease).

Long range

It’s spacious and comfortable, and I like that the third-row seating area is wider than in other cars.

Great handling and performance. Build/material is meh.

I love the way this car drives, it’s why I bought it. It handles like a sports car with great acceleration - I definitely don’t feel like I’m driving a “mom vehicle.” This is the first Hyundai vehicle to use aluminum fenders and side panels and it’s definitely a horrible decision. The car creaks and groans going over uneven surfaces and there’s nothing you can do about it. It’s worse when the metal heats up. I hate high pitch noises/squeaks and you can’t get away from this noise every time you drive. It did not sound like this during the test drives and showed up to stay after the car had 1,000 miles on it. Buyer beware.

Great SUV and Fun to Drive

I am thoroughly impressed with the Ioniq-9. This is my first foray into the EV space and I am so pleased to have made the choice. The vehicle feels solid, extremely comfortable, powerful when you need a little punch on the highway and efficient. My favorite aspect about the vehicle is its tech features. Hyundai thought just about everything to make your drive smooth and safe. I strongly recommend this SUV compared to a comparable gas SUV.

Love the Ioniq 9, but . . .

Really love the car and am happy with it, but the front passenger door seal is inadequate. At highway speeds, it sounds like the window is slightly open. The driver's side is quiet, but even the driver can hear the noise from the passenger door.

Our first EV and very happy owners!

Awesome car and features are well equipped. Unfortunately there is no Memory seating for my wife and I, we have the SEL AWD and my previous car the 2018 Kia Stinger had it. I know the higher trims have the feature but that should be standard for cars nowadays especially 7 seater assuming, it's basically a family car.

My Ioniq

I love to drive this car! It handles the road well, is very smooth riding, has great performance and looks great on the road. The interior is very roomy. Charging the vehicle is easy with the level 2 charger. Once a week is all I need to charge, as I do no drive the vehicle long distances.

Smooth drive, great efficiency

Great interior space, driving quality, and efficiency. There are some minor design flaws, but it seems like the designers put effort where it is most important and kept the cost low otherwise, which I also appreciate.

I loved it this Hyundai EV IONIQ 9 Calligraphy SUV.

It's been not so long, I have purchased Hyundai IONIQ 9 Calligraphy SUV with Honda CRV hybrid 2020. I enjoyed driving it and it has all features and it's luxury car with 3 rows, 6 seats, etc.
