Repairs and availability of parts is definitely a concern, especially with a relatively new company that has yet to turn a profit. Leasing is less risky financially. To be fair, though, most owners have had very good experiences with reliability of the Air. It's unfortunate that some cars, such...

I hadn't read much about solid-state batteries before, so I looked them up. They seem promising, but they are still in the research stage, with issues of cost, scalability, and even the battery chemistry still being worked out. So, yes, it will be quite a few years before they end up in a...

I'd like to re-visit the buy vs. lease discussion for Gravity from a different angle: how long to you keep a car, and how long do you expect to keep an EV? I have always kept my cars for quite a long time, for several reasons: 1) I feel that I'm getting the most value out of a car by owning it...

Was there any other information about features and options of the Touring? What did they leave out compared to the GT beyond the power/battery differences?

Thank you so much for the detailed report!

Thank you for the report! It's very encouraging.

Yes, I did see that review. I'm 5'3" and concerned. She wasn't too specific about what didn't really fit. And I'm rather baffled that she couldn't take a couple of minutes to experiment with the seat settings. Some problems can be fixed with the seat adjustments, but some seats are simply too...

I like your list! I also wonder how big it feels to drive and what visibility is like. A critical issue for me is the seats and driving position, especially as a short person. (Nearly all automotive journalists seem to be tall.) It also seems that the test vehicles are fully loaded with all of...

I remember when a stripped-down car had manual crank windows, manual door locks, no A/C, a basic AM (or maybe AM/FM) radio, and sometimes no power steering . . . I'm glad that those days are gone! I ordered a Gravity GT as stripped as I'm willing to go. The dynamic handling package really makes...

Thank you for the suggestion. Yes, I have read up on the Q6, and read/watched several reviews. I disliked it enough that I haven't bothered to go drive one. I like my Q5 well enough, but I'm ready for a change moving to an EV. Audi has tried so hard to make the Q6 look and behave like an ICE...

Thank you for sharing your experience. I've read and watched some reviews of the EV9, and it just doesn't appeal to me much. I'm not crazy about the Kia interior style. I have no use for a third row, and the third row of seats eats into the cargo space. Gravity has done an amazing job with its...

Does anyone know what these "Encounter" events are like? If you register for a demo drive, do you only get 20 minutes to drive a Gravity, or are there more Gravitys and/or items for seeing/touching/trying out? For example, can you experiment with the seats and cargo space, see the different...

Polestar 3, Macan, EQE, and i3 don't have enough cargo space for me. I need at least as much as I have now in the Q5 (about 60 cubic feet). Ioniq 5 matches it, but I've been hoping for more. Gravity doubles it--much more than I need! (Contiguous space behind the front seats is more like 100...

It looks like the sorting hat from Hogwarts.

I have read and watched many reviews of the Ioniq 5, and nearly all of them gush about the car--they say that it's quick, comfortable, spacious, handles very well, charges quickly . . . everything that an EV should be. I have seen the complaints about the software/interface, especially route...
