Terrible, this looks like something Hyundai of 1998 would have designed.

I personally don't think it looks bad either, but I liked the Ionic 5 design much better. I'm not a fan of drastic redesigns

Theyre still making the Ioniq 5. This isn’t a redesign of that car, it’s a different car.

Oh I didn't know that. Glad to hear the 5 is still available!

I was driving next to an Ionic 5 (he was checking out my Polestar as I was checking out his car) and I think they look so much better. Not sure of the size difference with the 6, but it looks really roomy

obviously the 5 has the flatter roof and hatchback back so it's roomier, but they're probably similar in length/width.

i still find something cheap looking about the 5 (maybe the lower plastic trim) but the 6 has the 'blob' side profile but i really like it from the front and the rear.

Nice wagon wheels. I really don't get why every single person in history except me thinks giant wagon wheels look better than fat tires. I can also imagine the poor visibility in that thing. And wouldn't it get annoying to fork out hundred dollar bills to get those door handles, sensors and all, fixed when they inevitably fail over time? You might as well set your money on fire.

Oddly enough, when you sit in the back of the 6, it has plenty of headroom. It would seem impossible from outside, but it does...

I'm 6', and I have a 30" inseam so I have short legs for my height, and I was surprised by how roomy it was given the roof line. The Iqoniq 5 definitely has more headroom but I didn't have any issue.
