There is a lot of talk on many Ioniq 5 groups of the Namsan Edition being dropped, not sure whether that’ll be in the new facelift or prior to. I’m so glad I went big and got the top of the range, the sun roof alone makes it worth in when you’re not shutting out the rain. The heat pump meant we could travel at motorway speeds with the heating on or off and not really notice any difference in range or consumption. If you’re use to wireless CarPlay or AA, get an adaptor or you’ll soon lose your sense of fun with the long cable required. There’s a known fault for that USB socket and plugging in repeatedly can’t do that much good. Living in Cornwall, there’s probably 4 or 5 I5s in the county that I know of, when we went to Southampton there were plenty and we were still the only one with the DSM which has also been the talking point for so many conversations, whether it’s when we park, return to the car or are charging, there’s often someone trying to work out why the mirrors are so small.
Glad you are enjoying it Mark. there’s plenty of car there. I was torn between I5 and the Yaq back in October and ended up going with the Yaq because I wasn’t keen on the I5’s interior. But after the drama with the change over and the wait times and also with the issues @phaedra is having with his Advanced pack ect its put me off.
Hadn’t heard anything on the Namsan being dropped till you said but Im hoping that it will be replaced by the imminent N Line variant. Iv been browsing through the Korean Hyundai site trying to work out what spec we might get in UK. its looking like quite few features will be paid extras on all trims like the vision roof, integrated dash cam and the digital side and rear view mirrors but who knows what spec we will get over here.
For now im just gonna get a factory order in for a Namsan and see what happens when its conversion time. worst case ill be back to square one with no car and no idea what to buy again. Ideally id want a AWD N-Line with all the bells and whistles
