Saw an Ioniq 5 in the wild today. oncoming traffic so it wasn't a long look. It looks fantastic Much better in person than in the pics or blog videos. it is definitely not a cross-over IMO, it is a hatch back, Hyundai is lying on that. The one I was bright white. I don't agree with some of the reviews that it looks bigger than the pics. I don't think it look that overly large.

It has a longer wheelbase than a telluride. It is longer and wider than a rav4. It is the same height as a Model Y. In no way can you use those dimensions and call it a hatchback. No hatchback has ever existed with those dimensions. You perhaps can consider it a wagon though.

I should try and sell my wife's 2020 Ioniq EV lease and get her into an Ioniq 5. I could probably come out on top, as the current lease is $190 a month. We got it before the shortages hit

Doing some visits for work today.
saw it again. The exterior looks fantastic on the outside. I think the interior is wrong direction. And no sunroof. Dealer has 8 of them on the lot
This is a hatchback 100%. Love the exterior
Charging was an issue.

If you put the smaller wheels on the Ionic, it would even lower. Have you seen one in person? That is a Hyundai Venue

I think hatch has been reserved for smaller cars usually. There is no clear definition. I would call it crossover as it has a larger wheelbase than a Pallisade. I could call it a station wagon but typically, those are based off sedans. I would call cars like the GTI a hatch while Venza, Ioniq 5, and CX-5 crossover. But to each their own.
