    They are not inlets they are outlets for hot air to come
    Out of the wheel well and also to control the air on the side of the car to make it more efficient

    Lighting is too dark. Interesting that Kia/Hyundai/Genesis are brave enough to make sports models across the whole range.

    I’d consider upgrading from my EV6 to this if it comes to Canada (since, sadly, the EV6 is no more here)…

    If it’s on the road, it will be called Lava

    Will it drive out of the garage with just 650hp🧐

    I hope they make a non-suede interior option (just leather/leatherette). I love the performance, but also want a more luxury interior feel.

      LOL ”more luxury interior feel”.

    Is there ANYTHING wrong about this car, looks awesome, although, I personally prefer the more subtle lines of the EV6

      Yea, it’s range. It’s also not truly high voltage like its competitors.

      yeah I had squint to make sure 😀 either out of focus or low light causing high iso noise

      Same. I checked my settings multiple times.

      Looks like it’s been shot at 24fps, and unless this a premium dslr (most likely a phone), the low light will suffer and it’s a dark space.

      It’s probably because the car is so fast

    @bill_heywood

    Like it, but it really doesn’t look like an SUV. If you are a head taller than a car, it’s probably not an SUV, it’s more like a hot hatch

    1. @Bullit151 Avatar
      @Bullit151

      Whilst I wouldn’t call it an SUV either. It is 9 inch longer and 4 inch taller than a VW Golf, which is already a big hot hatch. Personally I would put it in that “Crossover” zone where so many manufacturers are aiming at now.

    Hdr might have messed this video up… watch in pop up mode if on mobile to see it correctly 😅

    Hopefully the range isn’t anemic like the 5N.

    I own this car’s grandfather, a Centennial JS350. Worlds apart. *Worlds!* I say. Kind of odd seeing this one all spoilered out, I’d love to get one that still looks like old money rather than a PhD Civic. Also, @Nicki, you should check out Dale of Norway sweaters. They’d look amazing on you!
