Fitment nuance per vehicle
Hyundai IONIQ 5
The IONIQ 5's boxy retro profile hides a very raked windscreen with a shallow upper edge; most compact dash cams tuck behind the mirror cleanly but larger units with integrated screens creep into the driver's sight line. The rear bench slides 135 mm fore-aft on non-N trims, so cargo dividers pinned against the fixed sliding-bench range change effective boot depth by ~100 mm. The IONIQ 5 N fits integrated-headrest bucket seats that block strap-mount organisers. RWD frunk is a genuinely useful 57 L (small holdall size); AWD drops it to 24 L due to the front motor. V2L outlet on the underside of the rear bench powers accessories directly. Hyundai's CANbus is only mildly sensitive.
Kia EV6
The E-GMP platform gives the EV6 a completely flat rear cabin floor, so backseat organisers with base straps that run under the front seat clear the transmission-tunnel hump that would trip them in an ICE C-segment car. GT-Line and GT-Line S add sport-style seats with integrated headrests that limit strap-mount organisers to the passenger side; the EV6 GT (585 hp) fits heavily bolstered bucket seats that trap universal covers. RWD cars have a ~20 L frunk (big enough for a Type-2 cable and little else); AWD reduces it further. The EV6 supports V2L accessory output for on-the-go 230V power, and Kia's CANbus is only mildly sensitive.
