The Base electric version is 3,571lbs per Hyundai’s website.
your other reference is a sedan, which also doesn’t make much sense when comparing to an SUV.
I’m…not comparing it to an SUV. I’m comparing it to the model 3…
Like I said, I’m controlling for market segment. These two are pairs of vehicles someone would feasibly compare against each other if they’re looking for a crossover SUV in one case or an entry-level luxury sedan in the other. Likewise I wouldn’t consider comparing the Tuscon and Ioniq 5 as soon as I saw the pricing difference between the most expensive Tuscon and cheapest Ioniq 5 being $10,000 because they’re not intended for the same buyer.

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.
Oops, sorry, I’ve been awake since 3am so my brain is kinda foggy
1705 X 2.2 = 3750
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.
