Is a lack of a rear wiper on the Ioniq 5 a deal breaker?
Perhaps the most controversial design decision on the Ioniq 5 is that it doesn’t have a rear wiper. This has stirred up a lot of talk among owners and potential buyers about the effect it’ll have on visibility and safety, especially in bad weather. Some say the rear window is aerodynamically designed to keep it clear, others say it's a mess in rain or snow. One thing (or rather, the lack of it) that has been a sticking point for many considering the Ioniq 5 has been the lack of a rear wiper, and whether or not future models will feature one. The debate also discusses how this design choice stacks up to other EVs and whether it's a trend we'll start to see in more electric vehicles. Do we miss the lack of a rear wiper in the Ioniq 5, or is it something that we can live without?
But it's definitely an annoying issue, not a deal breaker. I’ve had some sketchy moments in heavy rain.
