THIS IS THE COOLEST NEW EV OF THE DECADE!

EV Channels Review

The TFL Talk podcast episode delves into Hyundai's latest offerings, focusing on the Ioniq 6 and the striking N Vision 74 concept. The Ioniq 6 is presented as a "Streamliner" with a drag coefficient matching the Lucid Air, aiming for maximum range. While European WLTP figures suggest over 610 km, EPA estimates are anticipated to be closer to 400 km. The design is polarizing, described as a "bar of soap" or "Apple Mighty Mouse," with a trade-off between aerodynamic efficiency and rear headroom. The N Vision 74 concept, a retro-futuristic fuel-cell hybrid inspired by the DeLorean and Hyundai's Pony Coupe, is lauded for its aggressive styling and impressive performance potential, though its viability in the US market due to limited hydrogen infrastructure is questioned. The discussion also touches on Mini's electric convertible concept and the significant impact of wheel and tire choices on EV range, demonstrated with tests on the Mini SE and Ford Lightning.
