Hey y'all,

I live in the US and am in the market for a used EV but I'm not sure what to look out for. I want something with AWD and a decent range, storage space, and preferably a tow hitch. I don't really want a truck (even though that's kinda what I described) but rather something more along the lines of a hatchback.

The tow hitch is mainly so that I can attach an e-bike capable carrier to transport my e-bike

AWD is so I can drive up the mountain to snowboard

I'm in the same boat and I'm either going with ionic 5 or 6, just worried about Hyundai panel vibration. I'm owned two Hyundai vehicles now and they always have interior rattles here and there, but engine noise helps reduce how noticeable they are. On the EVs, there is a much lower noise floor, so rattles will likely drive someone (me) crazy.

I really want the 6, but since it had a very small trunk, I'm not too sure how practical that is consider I want to use it for trips to wholesale stores.
