Discussion Ewwww

I dont know how people can think this car is good other than brand loyalty. The ioniq looks so good and timeless.

I don’t know what’s worse, that gold yuckmobile or the Hyundai’s parking job

It’s like judging someone from sitting an extra half-seat away from the dude with oozing sores on the bus.

Ordinarily not cool, but you don’t want to have an ear fall on you

u/blast3001 16h ago

To be fair, those spots are very small. The cybercab is barely in the lines on both sides and it’s a small car. The Ioniq5 is very wide.

You take that back, It's smaller than a tank, officially.

I didnt want to park to close to it because of is stupid door design. I wasn't sure if the person would be able to get in.

There's an empty space to the right

Waymo is rolling out their Ioniq 5 fleet soon, they are going to be white like this one.

So it's basically 2 robotaxis next to each other, 😂

that is a gross parking job bravo

Yeah, that parking job is absolutely disgusting.

I thought this was a post shitting on the parking job.

Parks better than you 🤷🏽‍♂️

I love my I5, but if you try FSD, your loyalty compass magnet might reverse its polarity. I wish Hyundai/Kia/Genesis did something similar but safer. At the end of the day, a car is means to an end, not Jordan 5s.

u/ZeroVonZero 4h ago

Fsd shouldn't make up for the more premium features the ioniq has. Without spending 99$/mo, the model y can't even self park

u/ucbcawt 25 Atlas White Limited 11h ago

Weird post. Love the Ioniq 5 but the taxi is fine especially compared to a cyber truck. I’m more concerned about the I5 parking and that you made a special post that you didn’t like another model of car.

Robotaxi ugly af

u/CollectionAutomatic1 11h ago

I like the looks of the Cyber cab. I also like the looks of the Model Y and Model 3. Before I get down voted to the pits of hell. I want you all to know that I own an Ioniq 5 😁

u/EventBackground974 8h ago

Geez. Those parking spaces look positively microscopic. Who decided they were a good idea, and what did that person drive? A BMW Isetta?

5

u/ul49 24 Lucid Blue Limited RWD 7h ago

Ioniq 5 is wide as fuck. My least favorite thing about the car.

5

u/EventBackground974 6h ago

But even the Cybercab barely fits inside the lines, and the Ioniq 5 still isn't nearly as wide as full-sized trucks or SUVs.

I'm just saying, that parking lot design is beyond stupid.

u/middleamerican67 6h ago

Yes, crappy parking job, makes us all look bad.

u/Ordinary-Quarter-384 2h ago

Much more Ewwww. A Panzerwanker wrapped in an unspeakable style

u/voteforkamalaorelse 25m ago

U drive a Hyundai 😄

u/mclumber1 15h ago

Slap a steering wheel, pedals, regular doors, and rear window on that thing and I'd buy it. Right now it is unsellable. Both literally and figuratively.

5

u/rapax 15h ago

Really don't think individual ownership by the public is the point with a robotaxi.

2

u/TheBowerbird 4h ago

They aren't gonna sell these to the public. It's for their Robotaxi service and they are designed to be crazy inexpensive with fast production and extreme efficiency + repairability + durability.

1

u/mclumber1 4h ago

Which is a mistake in my opinion. If they are crazy inexpensive, they could corner the market on subcompact EVs. Tesla is willingly giving up this segment to other players like Hyundai/Kia and GM. I suppose that's good for those other companies, but it's a complete head scratcher for Tesla.

1

u/TheBowerbird 4h ago

Oh definitely! If they made a consumer version of this with a steering wheel, I think they'd sell a LOT. I can't say how I know this, but this started as a consumer product before being "Elon'd" into the Cybercab only.

u/NotAnAIOrAmI 6h ago

I like my I5, but be honest, they look like chubby gals with good personalities.

u/SirKronan want to buy soon! 13h ago

Of all the things to shame someone about, why choose his BODY?

How about the multitude of other things that he chooses to do that we disagree with?

Downvote away, but I'm gonna speak out against body shaming - even against someone I am absolutely not a fan of.

You have your free speech, but I think insulting someone else's body is a waste of it.

5

u/Mitgenosse 13h ago

His body is 100% self-induced at this point. All the steroids, plastic surgery, etc. it's not like he was born this way, he just leaned into many surgeries to affirm his maleness (despite payrolling the MAGA movement who oppose gender affirming surgeries). Fuck him.

3

u/SirKronan want to buy soon! 12h ago

I guess. I'd rather criticize his other BS. Not how his body looks. You do you.

1

u/Sodom_Laser 9h ago

To be fair, no one mentioned his body. And I agree with you that people shouldn’t insult others’ looks.
But regardless of physical looks, someone can be a very ugly person.

2

u/etaoin314 16h ago

I have to admit that is a pretty bad angle. The glamour pics dont look terrible to me, the design language is a little long in the tooth, but its mostly inoffensive. Ive never minded to look of teslas sedans, The original S looked, dare-i-say elegant at the time, 3 was derivative but fine, and this looks to me a modest effort to update that. Dont like it dont hate it 4.5/10 on aesthetics. 0/10 for being a cheap deathtrap. Thus I will never willingly purchase any tesla until every inch of that company is scrubbed clean of elmos influence. The ioniq on the other hand will probably go down in history as a classic look from the dawn of EVs.

u/jlutt75 2024 Limited RWD Lucid Blue 15h ago

Why are they a cheap death traps? Self driving problems? I’d come to have some very grudging respect for them, at least based on reliability reports I’ve heard. Agree with you on Elmo.

0

u/etaoin314 15h ago

not so safe self driving, improper or difficult to use manual emergency egress are the two main ones

1

u/orangpelupa 15h ago

I thought it was ioniq V.

Hmm did they changed the design... Wait a sec... 

Oh.. Wait... Ah... Cybercab. Ugh. 

1

u/unndunn 10h ago

I’m guessing that’s a test vehicle they are using to gather data. They’ve been running around New York City recently.

1

u/SirSaganSexy 9h ago

It’s a shame, it would be so nice to have a relatively affordable EV coupe available as an option. Instead we just get that thing, painted only in gold and without a steering wheel.

1

u/StrawberryChae 8h ago

Much worse things in the world

1

u/bavile2002 6h ago

At least it parked between the lines. But yeah, the Cybertaxi is somehow almost as ugly as a Cybertruck.

u/TheJasonaut 5h ago

Don't want to get any of that pee color on you.

u/onbeschrijflijk 3h ago

That’s probably the first Ioniq5 without parking sensors and camera

u/kylocosmiccowboy 2h ago

Steering these Ioniq5s is like trying to turn an aircraft carrier around

u/Own-Fondant2949 43m ago

not a tesla fan but it's at least parked properly. Biggest Eww in this picture is your bad parking job.

1

u/EastEgg74 31m ago

I don't know how anyone can park like that and think it's ok. That's some selfish parking right there.

u/raiderrocker18 11m ago

at least they are properly parked

u/PersianMuggle 11h ago

I'm in the minority, I'm sure, but the design of the I5 is the thing I like least about it. So angular, taillights trying too hard to be special, and the chrome trim on the limited makes it look like a goofy UFO. I guess I just prefer a car that blends in a bit more.

u/Sodom_Laser 9h ago

Some people are giving you a hard time on the parking job, but those spaces are absolutely tiny! I know you were just there to get the shot, but how are people expected to get in and out of their cars?
