I do recommend it, but i also let them know that it may not work for them and that they have to do little research on their own. One of my friends already bought one & few others are interested as well.
Im looking for another EV so test drove the Bolt the other day. It's a great drive train and range, but the interior is absolutely atrocious and a deal breaker for me.I also highly recommend ASSUMING I know a BEV will fit them (second car, no need for range, budget, want a luxury brand). Honestly the two I recommend are either a Chevy Bolt (band for buck, FWD, no need for extreme driving conditions, no need for luxury) or I-Pace. I don’t recommend Audi even to Audi fans, its too boring and not worth it. Taycan is nice, but honestly even the 4S doesn’t have anything that is worth the price differential to the I-Pace. Only other caveat is if the infotainment quality is paramount fo the buyer, and they can use CarPlay/AA, I steer them away from I-Pace.
Actually that is a very good point, I have test driven the Kona and the Ioniq and they are also very nice EVs, and I do like Hyundai interiors. Good alternatives.Im looking for another EV so test drove the Bolt the other day. It's a great drive train and range, but the interior is absolutely atrocious and a deal breaker for me.
The Kona EV was far superior to it
you say etron or Tycan but those cars are also first generation and could have quirks just like IPACE.As an I-Pace owner, would you recommend the car to friends and family?
Im an advocate for the car and strongly recommend it, but I also set the expectations based on its quirks.
Depending on the person I might steer them towards an E-Tron or Taycan
This is true, but most people are hung up on infotainment which the Audi family has done a better job on. I personally really like the I-Pace infotainmentYou say

Funny you said that. That was my immediate reaction to test driving the I-Pace last summer.* The I-pace is more fun car to drive. It is like owning a piece of the future.
Bugs inside is the way I describe it too and the more I drive it, the more I love it.Funny you said that. That was my immediate reaction to test driving the I-Pace last summer.
5 months into ownership, I still feel that way. (Bugs aside.)
