Makes me wonder if the test was an anomaly/error but Bjorn Nyland knows his stuff.

common issue on Hyundai. Good on dealer to repalce the 12v…as they should







the Lexus battery car suffers from the same thing as the Model Y. Not really an suv, more like a tall car

Why would you use the word "suffers"? As long as they sell and people buy them, what does it matter?

they had a software fix on all hyundai/kia/genesis ev's to deal with it and in some cases people had to have this "iccu" replaced (i'm guessing that means integrated charge control unit or something similar).

as for this...

there's no comparison. the lexus there has a huge ugly wheel gap, wheels look tiny, ugly shiny black cladding, ugly front, just... no.
