That's why I opted for the ICE 48kw one as I could have the 19inch wheels as an option which I think look better.18 inch wheels on hev and phev only.
Ice get 19s
The sales guy I spoke to said it was to meet emission and mpg figures, there is a 3mpg difference he claimed.Apparently the assist fuel economy and they deliver a better ride than the 19”. I do prefer them as they are painted alloys and the tyres have significant sidewalls which reduces the risk of curbing.
Only on the Plug in HybridUnless it's 4wd

This is from the dropdown spec sheet and I was told that the 19inch ones aren't available on the HEV

As of May's update if you ordered in April ICE will be Sept but Hybrids are slipping to maybe Oct, if you order now for any it will be Dec, but he did say watch this space as KIA/Hyundai have much better supply chains than VW/Ford/Renault etc.Did they quote you any delivery dates,?
I ordered a GTLINE-S ICE with 19inch wheels Lunar Silver in April and they are confident I will have it by Sept maybe earlier.Did you order one? If so what ?
Not a case of me believing him as I’m just reporting the conversationYou believed someone who is a sufficiently accomplished liar to become head of a sales department? 😂😜
Nice, Ive ordered same model but in silver. Is it as slow and as sluggish gearbox wise as some Hybrid users on other forums are trying to suggest ?View attachment 15977 View attachment 15979

At last she arrived , oh and was very worth the wait
Thanks for the update, I wasn't to worried if I am honest as the review it cam from was by a 25yr old "Clarkson" wannabe that I can't find now.Well I’ve only had the car for a day and not covered many miles, however I’m thoroughly happy with the car. I’m coming out of a 16 year old Audi though!!
