Please move speedometer and critical info to not be blocked by steering wheel

I drive a 2023 Ioniq 5 SEL. The current location of the speedometer and other info is blocked by the steering wheel (when it is a comfortable position for my height). I plead that Hyundai releases an update (even if I had to go to the dealership to get it installed). On long drives the non ideal steering wheel position is rather painful/annoying. Some potential solutions (these could be options for the user to select in preferences): 1) create a compact view that moves info in towards the center 2) Move the info more up and out (upper right and left corners) 3) have the speedometer be analog towards the center.

I too would like the speed display moved to the center of the cluster. It only makes sense for it to be there.

I strongly back up this proposal. I am of 1,96m size and cannot find a seat and steering wheel position which allows me to properly read the speed display. This is a No Go for purchase unfortunately!


I also strongly support this proposal. I recently purchased two Ioniq 5’s and for the most part, I love these vehicles. They are just terrific - except for the position of the speedometer. The only real piece of data that I regularly look at while driving is my speed, period. The HUD is a nice-to-have when you feel like using an HUD but it is NOT a replacement for a critical gauge on the dashboard. Also, as everyone has pointed out, if you wear polarized lenses you cannot see it anyway - which for me is 100% of the time I drive during the day since I wear sunglasses. If you guys could just swap the center panel dynamic compass for the numerical speedometer, this car would be complete. Please. I just cannot imagine a group of user experience engineers designing this dashboard and not coming the same conclusion. Thank you Hyundai for considering this simple, critical modification.
