No, cant drive it~~

No pricing, no ETA, no nothing... not even ours, I guess this is probably the media unit. It is considered a 2025 model

Wow! Thanks for sharing!

Seems like a missed opportunity though, making the redline an uninspiring 7800rpm.

It's made up anyway, why not get into the 8000s?!

How do you like the looks of it in person?

danned 02-28-2024 09:36 PM

some says ugly

EvoFire 02-28-2024 10:42 PM

I'll reserve judgement, but that looks kind of ridiculous

It's a bit much for my tastes, I like the look of the regular one better

Badhobz 02-29-2024 05:26 AM

Dark WhatsApp me these pictures and at first I kinda threw up a bit in my mouth. Then I was like evo and thought it looked gundam ish. Now after looking at it again it’s just MEH

p.s. if its all electric why does it still have a rev counter? this thing has a gasoline engine to do what?

Nobody thinks of the X anymore because it's too expensive and old. I can't even think of the last time I saw one and I live in Tesla HQ Richmond so that's saying something.

I wish the Y looked more unique.. it does feel like it has way more space than the 3, but I can see why people think it's basically the same.
FWIW, I can't think of a car i would upgrade our X to, aside from a newer X.. its a great kid hauler

To be honest I love it, and not because I work for Hyundai. I was already a big fan of the regular 5 to begin with, this injection of RICE just speaks to me lmao (ricer at heart..fml)

The wider stance, with the stretched fenders hahaha. I think the matte blue just shouts look at me.

If you go with a regular color, maybe gloss black, I dont think alot of people will notice over a regular 5 unless you know what it is

Your attention span clearly didn't allow you to get more than 15 seconds through the promotional video

"ICE Simulator"?

There's a gimmick with staying power!

Alberta introduces $200 tax on EV's.

68style 02-29-2024 02:30 PM

It's coming here too... provinces want their fuel tax top-up

Badhobz 02-29-2024 02:42 PM

i saw it in person today. Dark showed me, its pretty friggin neat. Even the bullshit ICE simulator is kinda interesting. It has more room inside than the LX 4 seater option. THATS NUTS. I can actually sit behind myself, unlike the stupid LX.

Love the color, and all the body cladding aero bits are functional.

It looks rice as fuck, but i still kinda like it. Depending on the price, i might even get one to replace my Zzzzz camry... that or the FL5 CTR

I mean it makes sense. Much of fuel tax goes to road maintenance. EV's still use roads. There's enough of them out there now it makes sense that they should have to pay their fair share.

Fords can now use Tesla superchargers but they will have to use at least two parking stalls due to short charging cables designed for Tesla use.

Dark, can i come by and have a look if it still there tomorrow? Would love to sit in it!

Context: I went all the way to the Toronto Auto show to see it and couldn't sit in it :pokerface:

tegra7 02-29-2024 08:22 PM

Just don’t scratch the battery pack.

tiger_handheld 02-29-2024 08:31 PM

Anyone got any good electrician recommendations for charger install?

Good call on the autoshow, this one is probably headed to the Vancouver Auto Show at the end of March.

My dad's GC was their autoshow unit, he bought their only 2013 in early 2012

You didn't miss much - I sat inside one and there was nothing special about the interior.

thank you. I don't expect there to be anything mind blowing, but i'm part of the N community and there's a few little things I want to see and feel after watching almost every piece of content about this car over the last year or so.

Badhobz 03-01-2024 05:29 AM

its plasticky as hell on the inside. But whatever, its roomy, and seems much better built than say uhhh tesla?
