Sounds pretty good in the video, will be curious to see how that translates to real life. Hyundai is crushing it, and I'm not an EV guy at all.

They stole and paid a lot of good German and French engineers to get to where the brand Kia/Genis/Hy are today haha...

It's paying off

Agree,


The question is at what price? Didn't C&D say base price 70k....

At 70k this will likely sell and be a low production but...70k gets some good ICE cars.

Picture being in a parking garage..on a falls day in 2026.....hearing what you think is a mint condition E92 V8 just screaming.... Your jizzing like that's not a stock exhaust and it sounds pretty healthy as the car and the noise gets closer and louder. V8 low end thumping and screaming as they make the way up..pops and bangs....

Fully erect and smiling....

Car crests and you look and your like it's a Toyota Crown EV haha

The service center on the other hand... They need to take a page from the Lexus book of how to build a brand.
They make some good products just need some slam dunk powertrains.

I almost waited for the Ioniq 5N, but changed my mind and picked up a 21 M2C. Maybe a Hyundai EV in a few years as a replacement DD.

However, that being said, it is going to be EXTREMELY difficult to part with the M2C. I love this car just too damn much lol
