Shuttle craft. I’m loving looking at our new Hyundai Ioniq 5… charges faster and has more range than a Tesla not to mention it has things a Tesla doesn’t like CarPlay and an innovative feature called wiper stalks 🤣. #ev #teslatakedown #newcar - ThreadSky

Yes, we are keeping the Polestar 2 ☺️

But, a you be a man without a MANual?! 😛

🤣 … I don’t need gender affirming gears to have fun driving.

Brrrr manual! V8 go burrrrr! Surprised you haven’t caught any of those yet, this is a better place!

Second. ✋

How do the two compare?

d2lo.bsky.social•1 day ago

They are just really different cars. Very different personalities. The Polestar feels like a cockpit inside, very tight. It feels very solidly planted on the road and everything his firm, the steering, the pedal feel. The I5 is very airy inside. It’s only 2 inches longer but if feels cavernous.

The Polestar design is “super normal”… such a normal sedan that it stands out. The I5 feels very sci-fi in person and in its details.

Very cool. I really dig the understated styling and size of the polestars, but the i5 is pretty slick. I wish they’d bring the vw id3 over too, there aren’t enough smaller EVs here in the states.

d2lo.bsky.social•1 day ago

It’s very frustrating. Some of us want small cars. The Volvo EX30 is really the only choice. About the same size as a VW Golf in ever dimension but it does the opposite of the I5 visually. It looks bigger than it is… it’s that or the Fiat 500e or Mini which have slow charging and short range.

this is the vibe!

zamafir.bsky.social•1 day ago

I love that they updated and cleaned up the Hyundai logo too, embossed it just wasn't matching the futuristic vibes the design put off.

Love that balcony shot!!!! Congratulations!

Morning view ☺️

I think those are so cool, would love to get one if I ever get a real grown up job 😂

Definitely a great looking car! I’m a huge fan of the Hyundai retro-futuristic style. If only I could get my hands on the N Vision 74….

d2lo.bsky.social•1 day ago

Tell me about it. I want that N74 so bad!

I had the exact thought when I first too one for a test drive. It is what I imagine being in a shuttle craft would be like. Love my I5

One of the most beautiful cars on the road currently. I love it. It’s unfortunate timing for me because I wanted an Ioniq5, but glad I’m driving an #EV anyway (Honda Prologue).

Nice what did you replace this with? Did you get rid of the Polestar?

d2lo.bsky.social•1 day ago

It’s replacing the TT ☺️ … that will be going up on BAT soon.

End of an era!

d2lo.bsky.social•1 day ago

I’ve had it for 20 years. I’m good with it ☺️

jbrumm67.bsky.social•1 day ago

I’d had Mimi since 2006 until last October. It was time. ⚡️#thisistheway

d2lo.bsky.social•1 day ago

It felt weird at first but I’ve made my peace with it and emotionally moved on. I only drove the TT 600 miles last year so that logically tells me I actually like looking at it more than driving it 🤣

zamafir.bsky.social•1 day ago

Enjoy the manuals, then sell the manuals, proud of you!!! Similar path for me.

garagemonkeysan.bsky.social•1 day ago

Congrats. Hyundai is killin' it. ❤️

d2lo.bsky.social•1 day ago

I'm liking it more than I thought I would which is always nice!
