And I usually am Frugal with the gasoline, so a full tank is like 8000 KM to refill and it takes like $150.
So that is like $15 per 800 KM.
So 119 in cng and 15 in gasoline per 850 KM. 134 per 800 KM in cng/gasoline bifuel.
But that is at present cng price. They may double it some time, not now but in a timing.
Hi everyone!
I am a new Ioniq buyer. My last car was a 2016 Honda City CNG, good car but...well where do I have to start? lot of buts...Affordable? Yes. I can second this statement as true! POS-SFDO-POS with 14 TTD, no better! My new Ioniq will be on hands next Friday, so hopefully, I will be able to speak more properly about gasoline consumption.
City CNG is a middle size car with a trunk of a Nissan Match, more or less. And it costed 204k with cheap plastics and bore features.
The Ioniq is for sure very very far away better in terms of luxury and features.
Wasn't the city 156k at launch? When did it get to 204k??? :/

Also how come countries like Australia which is way hitter than Trinidad in some place,Think desert, have extended interval of oil change that are higher than Trinidad
PariaMan wrote:Ok I hear you
What about oil analysis? On what are we basing the need for 5000km oil changes?

Naturally over time we will get a better sense of reliability post warranty. I kinda concur that hybrid/electric is where the industry is headed, it’s just a matter of when you decide to jump on that train. 3rd world markets like ours will always have gas and diesel options as we are always last to invest in infrastructure to support alternative energy, just look at the CNG grid after almost 15 years of introduction.
Anyways back to the Ioniq, a well equipped car with all the tech and comfort needed for your day to day driving, once the looks grow on you.

Hadda be crazy to buy anything from kia at all.
drchaos wrote:SidZ wrote:The transmission is a dry dual clutch. So there is no oil to change.
Nope! Wrong again!
There is an engine clutch actuator fluid that has to be replaced at 45K and there is a DCT transmission fluid that needs to be changed at 90K.
These intervals are based on the Malaysian service schedule which is every 15K so may be sooner for the Massy service schedule at 5K.
The link is posted so you can inspect it for yourself.

They are Lying! Plain and simple ... when you look at most car manufacturers they have service schedules normal and severe condition.
The industry standard for severe conditions is always half of mileage of the normal service mileage
So the Ioniq should be no less than 7500km
