    @Rene the N Line gets similar kit to the 2nd tier premium, but more sporty looking. The N Line S & Ultimate loaded with everything. Downloaded the specs earlier, if you wanted a gander.

    Not quite sure why, i never commented on the Ioniqs equipment?

    But, if you want me to, the N Line is reasonably equipped. Worse than the Ioniq 6 and Explorer, but has the important bits (heated seats, matrix LEDs, electric tailgate). It does get a bonus point for including the heatpump. Most notably, doesn’t have a “premium” sound system, or Pano roof, instead  you get boatloads of bongs.

    All in all, for the same money (close enough), i’d take the Explorer all day any day. 800V doesn’t do anything for me if 95% of my charging happens on my 7kw charger. While still a good offer, the Explorer just offers more for basically the same price, while also being able to put a smile on your face. Something noticeably absent with the Ioniq 5 (if you enjoy “driving” as an activity).

    My wife, when getting in for the first time, said immediately “ew, like an iPhone in here” – i thought that was pretty apt. We’re android users. 😛
