    1880 X 2.2 = 4136lbs

    Price doesn’t matter, size does. If someone wants a compact SUV they won’t cross shop with a full sized SUV just because it’s in the same price range.

      That’s the Ioniq 5, we were talking about the Kona Electric up until that point were we not? The Ioniq 5 wasn’t mentioned until your next paragraph.

          Interesting, now I’m wondering why they advertise different weights based on which site you use.

            Hmmm

            Maybe the base version in the US is more basic than in Canada 🤔

              I wonder if the US site doesn’t include ancillary things like the roadside kit? I didn’t think that accounts for the difference fully though.
