Ride is Fast and Smooth. Controls/Interior is NOT USER FRIENDLY
What a fast and smooth ride, which is why I purchased this car. Turning radius is huge, though, so not very maneuverable. When I first bought it, I thought how nice it was that Hyundai was trying to mimic the gas-powered car experience with the controls in their electric vehicles. But this is my first Hyundai, so little did I know that I would hate the interior controls so much that I'd be begging for the horrible Tesla-like feature where everything is on one screen. How things work inside the car is clunky and not user friendly compared to other manufacturers. To name a few things I don't like, the steering wheel has way too many controls w/very few of them being intuitive. It has a strange scrolling/push button that cycles you through pages of options. I won't scroll through "pages" of options while driving. There should never even be a second "page" let alone the huge number of controls, levers, buttons, etc. The settings I want to change, I can't (e.g., certain unnecessary notifications stay on and interrupt every song and audio book I read) yet settings exist for things I can't imagine being used by a majority of drivers. Placement and choice of what to make the button or control is odd. For ex, the P, N, D, etc is a twisty knob on the end of a lever on the steering wheel but so is the windshield wipers. 4 months in, I'm still twisting the gear shifter sometimes when I need wipers. The seats are fake leather, so I don't slide smoothly in or out of them. Instead, as I'm getting in and out, I'm planted on the seat where I land the first time and then have to raise myself up and move over a time or two just to get in place. The material used on the inside of the doors shows body oil and smudges. Regular cleaners do not take it off. I have found no way to make the inside of the car look clean. Simply for the inside and all its frustrations, if I had to decide right now, I would never buy another Hyundai no matter how good the warranty. It's a frustrating user experience inside this vehicle.
