Ioniq 5s are great, but they use a newer 800v e-gmp vehicle platform (along with other kia and Genesis EVs) which all have an iccu issue that's been hard to pin down for Hyundai. Their other 400v based EVs like the Niro and Kona I heard are just fine.
The ICCU issue wouldn't be a big deal of they had stock of them. I had the car at the shop for ~60 days waiting for the backordered part to arrive.
Otherwise the car has worked without issues.
Reliability might be a dream right now, Evs are still in rapid development.
I'm hoping Rivian turns out well, I'd like to consider the R2 as my next vehicle when the lease is up.
Rivians are a nightmare for minor crash repair.
