I went from a Kona EV to an Ioniq 5 last fall (lease expired). I really liked the Kona, great city cruiser with the range for longer trips. The interior was a tad cramped but we made it work well enough. The main grievance was the limited charging rate was maxed at ~75kW, so a full fast charge took a minimum of 45 minutes.
I like the I5, it’s a lot more spacious inside and the charging rate is so much better. We took a long trip recently and charging stops didn’t exceed 15 minutes. But in comparison to the Kona the I5 drives like a boat, albeit a fast one.
As a 5 owner I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.
Granted I formerly had a Bolt EUV and liked the size. The 5 is a tad large for my taste.
The Kona electric and the new Nissan Leaf are comparable to the Bolt EUV
