My iPhone 15 Pro constantly slides off this thing or I put it on and it sometimes works, but most of the time the orange light blinks instead of charging. No it’s not too hot.
I apologize if this has been asked before.
I’m in the market for a three row electric SUV when my current Rivian lease runs out in September. I’ve been looking at both the EV 9 and the Ioniq9 but I am a little unclear if one pedal driving can be set as a default drive mode without having to switch every time I get in the car.
I love one pedal driving, but if I have to switch it into that mode every time I get in the car, it may be a dealbreaker as minor as it sounds.
I previously owned a Model Y then a Model X and recently traded in a Rivian R1S for the I9 Limited. Here are my initial thoughts comparing the cars.
The I9 is very quiet and ride is smooth. the power is on par if not better than my R1S dual motor. Steering feel is nice and heavy on sport mode.
I am enjoying the captains chairs and ability to get in 3rd row without effort.
The software isn't bad, native Hyundai UI feels old school, Apple Car Play helps but I really did enjoy Tesla and Rivian UI more. OTA updates were more robust and feature packed vs Hyundai.
Not having ability to unlock the car walking away is very odd. I've done this for the past 5 years, now I have to remember to touch the door or press the fob. (also hate carrying the ugly fob)
I miss the large frunk and subtrunk that the Rivian had. I used to put random things like jump starters in there.
Not being able to use built in dashcam is odd. Now I have to find aftermarket solutions.
The sound system is so awesome compared to my Rivian. Hopefully they'll give us a better EQ in the future.
Car overall feels well built and solid. I don't feel any rattles or squeaks (looking at your Tesla)
It's nice to have a dealer 10 min away vs 45 min away and 1 month out appointments.
I enjoy having much cheaper payments than my X or R1S 😄
Brand new lease. Sel or limited.
Do we get a free home charger ? Anything else. Any other incentives or anything I should make sure I get ??
Do we have free maintainence for 3 years
We picked up the 9 in late February. Hate the current gas prices so got rid of our last gas consuming car.
Ioniq 9 Calligraphy and Ioniq 5 Limited RWD
Hello everyone,
I've reserved an Ioniq 9 with black interior, and I'm just waiting for them to finish the paperwork and make it ready for delivery in a few days.
Pretty much my only gripe though with this car is the black interior. I usually despise black interiors because I find them gloomy and unwelcoming but this car was the wiser choice financially. I had another option, with two tone interior, but it was 3k more and had a matte black paint, which I didn't really want to deal with.
So my question is, will I regret it because it's truly boring, or will I actually end up forgetting about it? I mean, is the sunroof enough to make it more appealing or not?
I'm worried about it despite having two other cars with black interiors, although that is the thing that makes me like them a bit less.
So in conclusion, I'm looking for opinions on the black interior, and how the nappa leather has held up looks wise (nappa because I've reserved a Calligraphy).
I had this cargo cover on my Rivian and put it in the I9. It fits perfectly and provides a divider so stuff doesn’t fall through the middle.
Brand is 4knines cargo cover large from Amazon
Looking to lease an ioniq 9 but still paranoid about getting stranded on a road trip with the ICCU.
I’m getting ready to lease one. I’m not a big leaser but most recently I’ve been playing with lisahacker.com. I’m really hesitant to get a Hyundai. I’m mostly been in Honda‘s and Bmw‘s and Toyota‘s. I realize that their quality has come a long way for the better. But I also heard real horror stories. For example, one quote from somebody was you’re not buying a car you’re buying a Warranty that never gets honored. So please I’m here to hear all the good bad and ugly, but mostly the bad and ugly so I can make an informed decision.
Joined the group last night and trying to figure out all the tech options on this thing 😂😂 got a sweet deal on the calligraphy design that I couldn’t pass up…But I’ve never owned a car that could do so much.
What are some settings I need to know about it to make it more personal besides the butt massager
We have a fourth baby on the way and needed a little more space 😅, I’ve been looking the Ioniq 9 and the EV 9. Went to the dealer ship for a test drive with the Ioniq 9 and was sold. Didn’t expect it to happen so soon but the car is amazing. It’s like I’m chilling in an airline plane.
Fist we were going to get the limited because we needed the captains chairs but the gave us a better discount on the calligraphy so I got bumped up to that. But something happen. The calligraphy had a battery issue. The BMS was going off so right off the lot in the shop. Was really disappointed, didn’t get to drive it home and waited a day for them to figure it out. Nothing service guys couldn’t fix it, Hyundai’s engineers could help. I told the dealership if the car wasn’t going to be drivable by noon the second day I would sadly return it.
As the clock got closer to the deadline I started to look around the inventory in the area. I found a calligraphy at their other dealership that wasn’t there 2 days before. Talked to the one that had my broken car and told them the proposal, they were happy and ended up eating the difference. Got bumped up to the calligraphy design as you can see 🤗
Saw something about Amazon Music and maps. Was hoping the OTA update was going to include MyQ. I didn’t drive long enough for it to finish though. Anyone else finish the update today?
Can you tell me the MSRP and the actual amount paid (monthly effective) or just tell me the monthly, down, due at signing, and state? Preferably people who didnt have a trade in or otherwise.
Please include when you initiated your lease!!
Trying to compare todays deals to prior
** NO leasehacker does not have enough history for me.
I'm the market for ioniq 9 with 15 incentives from HMF
Is it reasonable to target caligraphy for Sel price under 50k
What am I loosing as per safety if I do so, please advice
Curious your thoughts on used prices.
Looking at a 2026 used calligraphy with 8,500 miles for $57k. Kelley Blue Book has it at more like $50k but I feel like there isn't enough data for KBB to be accurate. Thoughts on this price?
Title seems clean but will obviously investigate that as well. Anything else you suggest confirming before a purchase?
This also isn't through Hyundai but is from another dealership. I know the 100k warranty transfers but wasn't sure if there is any concern with it not being through a Hyundai dealership?
Thanks in advance!
Leasing and learned the hard way with other ev that tires get burned. What’s your tire life ? What trim and where do you live ?
What did it cost to replace tires ? Leasing and don’t need to spend a ton for replacements.
Coming up on a month in our i9 and I'm curious what other drivers are generally seeing in mi/kwh. What's your overall average, what trim, and how do you tend to drive?
Driving back from grocery run yesterday, car suddenly slowed down 41mph with the Check: electric vehicle system warning along with red battery symbol and car alert symbol. Could switch lanes and drive at 41 for a few mins and then it slowed downed further. The P1A961C and P1A9096 codes popped up on the app. Pulled over to the shoulder and had to get the car towed to the dealership. Need to talk to them on Monday to confirm but seems to be the ICCU issue. A review of this reddit forum and general search shows that hyundai hasnt really fixed this issue, atleast not satisfactorily. Ioniq calligraphy with ~12000 miles. No issues or symptoms with the battery/drivetrain leading up to this. Had been in the dealership a couple of times with excessive wind noise on the driver side. We were so happy with the car for the first 8-9 months but this and the dealership experience has dulled that down quite a bit. Will update to confirm post actions.
UPDATE: Dealer called to confirm it was the ICCU issue. Good news is that they can get the part and get the fix done tomorrow - silver linings and all that.
