I completely adore the Hyundai Ioniq 5, and so was excited to spend per week with it when the EV landed in my driveway. After I first drove the Ioniq 5 in San Diego, although, I hadn’t packed my favourite model water bottle: the massive 32-ounce Nalgene. Regardless of it being the very best, its sheer measurement makes it much less supreme when making an attempt to pack gentle for a brief journey. It additionally means it would not slot in most automobiles’ cupholders, however, with out the bottle readily available, I would have to attend till this new alternative with the Ioniq 5 to seek out out if it passes the Nalgene examine. So, let’s get to it.
Beginning at pole place — the entrance cupholders — we discover ourselves unfortunate to this point. It isn’t even near becoming. Common, however our first choice for handy entry to megahydration is denied. In most situations, our subsequent greatest guess is the molded pockets within the entrance door panels.
Right here now we have success. It is fairly a good match, so whereas our drink will not be knocking or rolling round, it is not as straightforward because it may very well be to retrieve whereas driving, and I will most likely finally put on out the little plastic tether connecting the lid to the bottle, as that is the best factor to seize with out wanting. Nonetheless, I will give these door holders a go.
How in regards to the of us sitting in again? The place can they stash their Nalgenes?
No shock about it not becoming within the heart armrest cupholders after our inauspicious begin with the fronts. The truth that it will not match within the door panels is disappointing. C’est la vie.
However another factor … you might need seen one other potential stash up entrance within the storage cubby beneath the middle stack.
The Nalgene suits in there simply fantastic, however a bit of bit of additional room means the bottle will probably be knocking round. It is truly a good spot, and extra accessible than the doorways.
