    Also realize they are comparing EPA ranges, which tests vehicles in their default modes. Real world testing has shown for the Ioniq 5 and EV6 (and I would assume the GV60) that the AWD models, in Eco mode, with I-pedal disable will get within 10mi of the RWD range on the highway. I-pedal apparently keeps the front motor engaged, and even disabled the front motor is engaged up to about 15 mph or so, or if there is front wheel slippage. Around town, in slippery weather, if you have a heavy foot, etc, etc, I’m sure the RWD comes out on top. With our I5 I don’t notice much difference on the highway when in Eco or Normal on long trips. So I keep it in normal for slightly better throttle response for passing. But honestly, there isn’t that much difference.
