Ioniq 6 Oil Change
Just did my break in oil change, 3500km on my new car. I will sample oil at 10k and 50k to develop interval for the drive unit oil. Oil was expensive. 180$ canadian.
Hyundai Ioniq 6 Style 53 kWh in de uitverkoop: nieuwe D-segmenter voor de prijs van een rijk geruste Renault 5
Dankzij een tip van u/Low_Composer_2804 kwam ik erachter dat de Hyundai Ioniq 6 Style 53 kWh momenteel in de uitverkoop is. Bij Herwers staan meerdere exemplaren verdeeld over de vestigingen voor €30.895, inclusief €15.000 wegrijvoordeel.
Aanbod Hyundai Ioniq 6 Style 53kWh
Het zijn de instapversies, maar ze staan op 18 inch wielen (goedkoper in onderhoud) en zijn toch nog behoorlijk uitgerust. Voor een nieuwe auto uit het D-segment is €30.895 een opvallend lage prijs.
Dit doet me denken aan 2024, toen de Nissan Leaf in de uitverkoop ging. Instappers waren toen voor circa €22.000 te krijgen.
De tweedehands rekensom klopt niet
De Ioniq 6 komt helaas niet in de buurt van mijn budget, maar €30.895 vind ik geen gek geld voor zo'n auto. Tweedehands zijn ze slechts €5.000 goedkoper en al enkele jaren oud. In dat geval zou ik persoonlijk voor nieuw kiezen.
Wel binnen budget: de MG4 Standard 51 kWh Final Edition
Voor €21.999 is de MG4 Standard Final Edition wél haalbaar, nu het vakantiegeld binnen is. Er zitten wel wat nadelen aan: de instapversie kan alleen 1-fase laden. Maar het accupakket is middelgroot, snelladen gaat met 88 kW nog prima, en de uitrusting is niet verkeerd voor die prijs.
Hebben jullie de Ioniq 6 uitverkoop al zien aankomen, of verrast dit ook anderen? PS welke modellen zijn jullie nog tegengekomen die met hoge kortingen aangeboden worden?
How many flat tires have you had?
I've had my '25 since Christmas of 2024, and today I have my second flat tire. I guess I have bad luck...
I just swaped to 17s
I went from the 20in rims to 17ins rims. I have notice the the car handles bumpers better. It does have a little body roll now but that doesnt matter to me.
Tires for the 17in rims are miles cheaper. I paid $700 for 4 new tires. We also have a lot of pot holes where im at so we dont have to worry about that now.
I found a set of used Santa Fe rims on marketplace for $400. Tires are goodyear Reliant 225/60R17. The Santa Fe TPMS sensors are different from the ioniq 6 sensors but are the same as the ioniq 5 for those who are interested in swapping those out.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Replacement tires?
(Yes I know my tires are cooked) What did everyone do for replacement tires? I’m looking for tires and would prioritize treadlife, comfort, handling and don’t care too much for efficiency since I home charge. Has anyone went with Hankooks or other Pirelli tires because thats the main tires in stock at my local tire shop. I’ve heard the Hankook ION Evo’s are good in some other threads but would rather not go with that.
ALSO just a question out of curiosity since I see mixed answers online. Do the rear tires wear faster than the front on this car? I have the RWD model. And don’t worry I rotate my tires if you’re concerned I’m asking about this.
Thanks if you guys have any input!
Solution to 12V battery recharging problem or false hope?
When I had my 2nd 12V battery replaced in the last 6 months on my 2024 Ioniq 6 LTD (ICCU replaced 6 months ago), the service manager suggested keeping my lights on full (not auto) all the time to solve the problem.
According to him, the lights signal to the main battery to recharge the 12V. I'm not certain of his explanation, but thought I'd give it a try. I use the car for shorter trips, especially because it's become unreliable. Evidently the 12V never gets the signal to charge on shorter trips? I'm dubious.
Does this idea seem plausible to people who understand electronics or just have opinions?
Thanks!
Absolute beautiful colorway
Girlfriend got a new car.
Damn it is sweet and nice.
Some highlights:
“The headline finding from our new range retention study is that the average EV holds 97% of its range after three years and 95% after five.”
**“**After three years, 68% of EVs still exceed their original EPA-rated range.”
**“**Five brands in particular show no apparent range loss across the years we've measured: Cadillac, Ford, Hyundai, Mercedes and Rivian.”
“If you're shopping used: A 3-year-old EV at $20K isn't a discount on a worn-out asset. It's likely still 97% of the car it was new.”
“f you're shopping new: A 325-mile EV today will be a 309-mile EV in five years. There’s a lot to like about that.”
It appears to be official!
Looks like the warranty extension is now official. Warranty extension number Z14
Production Range:
22-24 I5's 10/4/21-11/1/24
23-25 I6's 12/14/22 - 10/10/24

Ioniq 6 20" to 18" Rims
Anyone go from the 20" to the 18" rim? What size tire did you go with and did you have to have any recalibration.
I did the math on how far I could drive in the cost of a gallon of gas...
Gas prices are crazy, even in the relatively low cost area I live. I was watching a YouTube short talking about how to save on gas and it led me to do some math. I like the results.
Smaller Key Fob 3D Print Question - Ioniq 6 2024
So I'm looking to get a slightly smaller key fob and I've seen a couple people talking about 3D printed ones that get rid of all the excess space.
My first question is for people that have done this - what are the buttons like to use? Are they responsive and reliable, or are you having to really jam on them since it looks like they're "hinged" plastic pieces attached to the case instead of a floating button.
My second question is, has anyone seen any prints that also have a slot to insert a manual key? This seems like a big oversight on even the official fob, not having a place to insert a manual key. I don't want an extra thing on my key ring, especially with a cap that comes off from the simple friction of pulling my keys out of pocket. Something that lets you slide it in or snap it on would work.
If not, no big deal, but I'm curious for those that have printed these out, if you liked them and had any recommendations on prints. (I did see that I need to be sure to get one that fits the 2024's PCB, as they recently changed)
Premature tire wear on both rear tires 2024 ionic 6 with 20" wheels and perreli tires
Both rear tires were separating the entire treat from the side wall. Outside had plenty of life. 24000 miles. Seems only thing is the camber is a little aggressive if you look straight back on both sides. Maybe a couple degrees but this seems like it's the very edge. I have done some drifting but only a few times in the dry mostly in wet, but still doesn't explain the uneven wear. And for both sides at the same time?
Ioniq 6 AWD vs RWD and 18" vs 20"
Heya,
If you are debating on which version to get I can give you my thoughts as someone who just bought a used first edition (AWD 20"). You'll probably have heard the basics already, 18" has better range, about 15% or so, and RWD also improves your range but AWD is more punch.
What you don't know is the feeling if you haven't driven one. If you use eco mode in an AWD it switches off the front motor so it is very similar to an RWD (apart from the weight). It's fine. It accelerates nicely, you can't complain. If you are not a person for adrenaline occasionally, it's the right car for you.
But going in sport on the AWD is a different world, it really catapults you forward. I'm a motor bike rider and honestly this feels very similar to my 100bhp Suzuki Vstrom 1000. It really launches you.
And while i didn't drive the 18" wheels I can tell you that the 20" feel like the car is clued to the ground. No swivelling, I could go through a roundabout at 50kmh and it was just plain amazing. Like a go kart on steroids. The ride is a little more harsh for sure, if your roads are not smooth.
I had been thinking about it excessively, but in the end, one drive was enough to make it clear that I want the fun of AWD 20" and I can live with the decrease in range.
If you want the car for range only and are not a person to accelerate quickly or feel the curves, the RWD 18" is totally fine.
But if you wanna grin over both ears, AWD 20" it is.
Anyone else wish this was the default design for the driver display?
Firstly, I'm charging my car tonight 😂.
Secondly, I love these gauges in sport mode. They look so good. I wish they were the standard look and just change colour based on drive mode.
What do ye think?
This honestly is a superb quality of life addition to the car.
Arrived today from Amazon. Makes this space so much more useful now.
Its been an eventful week for the car. I only have it just over a week and I've already had it back with the dealer because the motor that controls the regen braking was so noisy, the second your foot lifts off the accelerator it was making a whirring noise that was very audible.
The dealer is replacing the drive motor or whatever it's called under warranty. It is a super car though I have to say, I'm very happy with it. Just wish there was a better choice of materials in the center console. Its far better in the facelifted model though.

2025 Ioniq6 Limited AWD
Ioniq 6 to EV6?
My 2024 Ioniq6 is my first EV and the lease is up in February '27. When I first leased it, I didn't know whether I'd keep the car or get another one. I really like my car and if not for the $29k residual to keep it, I'd probably have considered that.
Now that I see Hyundai is discontinuing the Ioniq6 in the US, I need to look for a new type of car. I think the 6N will be out of my price range, so I'm thinking Kia EV6. It seems like it's a very close cousin of the Ioniq, other than one being a sedan and the other a hatch.
Does anyone have thoughts on a transition from one to the other? Reasons not to? Or any other similar comparisons to look at other than EV6 and Ioniq 5?
