Excellent car with some annoying features
Overall the Ioniq 5 is a great car. It's been reliable, it performs well, and it's comfortable. But it has some user interface features that are annoying, and in some cases dangerous.
First, the car does not remember where I leave the iPedal regenerative braking setting, so I have to reset it every time I drive. Worse, though, is that when I put the iPedal all the way up for one-pedal driving, the car overrides this decision every time I change gears. So when I put the car in reverse for a three-point turn, and then back into drive, the car has changed my iPedal setting so that the brakes are behaving differently then I set them to behave and the car unexpectedly rolls forward when I expect it to brake.
Second, when I am at a stop and switch from drive to reverse, if my foot is not on the pedal, the car does not simply alert me and stay in gear, it bizarrely switches to Neutral, so I have no powered control over the vehicle in any direction. This is dangerous.
Third, the sensors for blind spots and cross-traffic when backing up are so overly sensitive that we've been conditioned to ignore them because they are so often false positives.
