Today makes 3 weeks of ownership and 3000km later
I can’t really fault the car but have a few gripes.
1. The onboard entertainment system has restarted on me twice, once using the android connected feature and the other time just on Bluetooth. No settings were reset or anything just a minor annoyance.
2. Performance Blue seems to be much harder to keep clean than my previous vehicles, especially the rear boot (constantly accumulating dust and dirt)
3. On Monday when I got to work the car wouldn’t lock with the wireless module. It wouldn’t even lock all the doors when I used the key, only the door with the key in it. I got in, restarted the car and turned it off again AFTER checking all the doors were closed and it appeared to work. The light on the wireless module was working every button press, a weird anomaly that I don’t wish to see again!
4. The Autonomous Emergency Braking system alert / beeping appears to be very sensitive – maybe it’s just my ‘spirited’ driving style but I hear it every few days when people cut me off or I go to overtake
5. Now everything’s starting to wear in properly and I am more confident to put the power down around some twisty roads near mine, I find myself wishing it had a little bit of more power! Even just around 230kw/400nm would be nice. I am beginning to feel the difference between driving solo VS a few friends in the car.
6. Torque steer / eDiff – I personally love how it reacts on the road and have learnt to expect it but everyone who has driven it I have warned “you’ll want two hands on the wheel if you give it some in 1st or 2nd” and they never do because “oh please it’s a Hyundai”… It’s made for some scary times
Absolutely love this car, I’ve missed having a manual
