That looks like the Calligraphy trim, which has 245/45R21 tires. They have 4.3" of sidewall, just a touch less than the 4.5" of our Q7's 285/40R21s, which ride amazingly well; and about a half inch less than the 18s on your Encore GX. It's plenty. If that's still a concern, the XRT trim puts 31" offroad tires on 18" wheels.

Because a car kind of makes you remember an obscure car from 30 years ago doesn't mean that they copied the design lol

as this looks like a range rover, even the trim sounds similar with the calligraphy; RR has autobiography...
a very cartoony/minecraft car - consistent with the rest of their ioniq lineup, and it will sell well i'm certain.

Many cities in Florida doing the same thing. We also have a Kia and I went & picked up our free club. Also had the software update done & they actually put a sticker on each front window stating such. Not sure if would-be thieves would read those stickers tho!

It's good - the rear was messed up but it's growing on me.
Frankly, I'm glad we are getting more choices for blocky SUVs and not the ugly egg-shaped vehicles that are all over the place now. An SUV should be blocky for better cargo room in the back. The egg-shaped SUVs are all disgusting.

I'm seeing these on the road now and I dislike the exterior even more in person than I do in pics. I think Hyundai/Kia/Genesis make some absolutely beautiful cars, but this one is a real head scratcher to me. Clearly these things are subjective, but to me this is one of the most odd looking vehicles I have seen in quite a while.
