The Best EV In 2022 Is A Hyundai | 2022 IONIQ 5 Review

- Whether you get the model with 300 miles of range or the model with 320 horsepower, or even the unexpected paired back base model, the IONIQ 5 is impressive and unexpectedly unique. It looks like a giant Golf hatchback (which I think is an asset personally), rides like a luxury crossover, charges in 18 minutes at (CCS from 10-80%) and is priced below the key competition. What's not to love? For me, just the odd placement of the subwoofer in the trunk.

10% to 80% in 18 minutes is nuts
Game changer
Game charger ...
It's great that it can do that but AFAIK, it's not good for the batteries to repeatedly charge them that fast. I guess most people wouldn't do it THAT often so probably only on long trips etc. I hope they sell them in my state soon! 😀
@@ElroyMcDuff It's great for a road trip, but in normal situations you can just slow charge overnight
@@Kenjionigod 99% of the time, home slow charging will be the primary charging method. Seems to be way too much emphasis on DC fast charging.
The center console slides in the Limited, so it might give rear seat passengers more room.
Is it the whole console or just the top? I think the issue is foot space for the center passenger.
@@jasonhillgiant the whole thing slides forward. I'm surprised Alex missed this
Beat me to it, i am really surprised Alex missed this feature
Most reviewers also miss the fact that the 60/40 rear seat assemblies are on tracks and can be slid fore and aft independently. In most videos, however, the seats are parked in their aft most positions.
@@jasonhillgiant The entire center console slides, including the cup holder. This opens the rear foot-space entirely.
dropping the review the literal minute the embargo ends. Thank you Alex!!!
My sister just bought one of these yesterday... stopped by to show me on the way home. She's on the road a lot for her job, so it's definitely going to get a workout. She's still just learning how everything works, but so far she really digs it.
That center console slides, so when fully forward it doesn't protrude into rear passenger's space.
Weird he didn’t realize that
Lol the sliding console is like a major feature Hyundai was going for…
He missed it. Not a biggie
@@narenn9500 saw it at LA auto show, Even pushed up it still protrudes. It should slides all the way to dash, but it doesn’t.
The sliding center console is only available on the top trim level. Atleast thats true in canada.
Also in canada, only the top trim level has the moon roof and the silver body moldings. Every other trim level comes with black body moldings.
The four dots on the steering wheel is morse code for H.
Amazing!!!
An EV that cares more about space and comfort than speed and aerodynamics. Yet it has one of the fastest charging speed and significant range.
Is it 1:40am? Yes. Do I have to get up early? Yes. Did Alex just drop a new car review video? Yes. Am I now staying up? Yes.
America needed an EV crossover "thing" that rides comfortably. Teslas without air suspension are bouncy, as are the Mustang Mach-e and Polestar 2. I'd love to test drive this car. I sat in one at the LA auto show, and I really liked the interior. Feels very spacious and modern.
I wonder if that’s because auto manufacturers feel the need to make every car sporty. Partly due to car reviewers of the past and present knocking the car if the suspension felt “soft”.
VW ID4 seems to be compliant.
Agreed. We need an EV that is "comfortable"
@@lawnmowerdude EVs are heavy, it takes more effort to engineer a suspension that rides well rather than just making it super stiff. Tesla does not know how to tune cars. No ride issues with VW, Audi or Porsche products.
This is a better VW the the VW....back to the retro 80's. Great review as always.
The mid console is sliding about 5,5 inches depends where you want to have it so it gives rear passages more space ,in your case is slid
all the way back 🧐
Agreed, looks like it was slid back for sure.
Some trims do, others don't
Thank God. I was waiting on this very embargo to lift! Can't wait to buy an Ioniq 5 SEL
Be ready for that dealer mark up
I'm not sure when they will begin selling. I'm ready!
Out of those three EVs, I'd choose the Ioniq 5 every time.
I like the Kia version of this EV. Exterior styling of the Kia to me looks better and the interior fit and finish feels better too.
I'd probably choose it over all EVs I've seen on the market since I don't want a performance EV (ICE please!).
Bummer that the drawer style glove box was nixed for the US market
Great review as always Alex! Although it pains me to see you not notice that the front console slides forward and backwards….other than the fast charging , I think that was one of Hyundais biggest marketing points for this vehicle.
He did this on purpose to generate comments .. more comments "up" you in the viewing algorithm.

Doubt. It's detrimental to his credibility.
2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 in NHTSA Investigation over Power Loss

Alex standing in the rain, hair= perfect. :D
Great job on your review!
All of the information anyone needs to know without abusing the car or bashing.
Thanks
This thing looks awesome. Best looking ev on the market imo
Have you not seen an Audi e-Tron GT?
@@jjuhring1 I love the way it and the Porsche look. I think they're a bit slower than Tesla's Plaid but I would take either one of those over a Plaid any day.
Ionic 5 is my pick of the 3 mentioned.
looks like Hyundai played cyberpunk 2077 and made this. Love it
you can move the center console back and forward.
Anyone wondering about the 4 little squares on the steering wheel. That's actually Morse code for H, H for Hyundai. Pretty cool stuff!
Interesting review. Very much appreciated the detailed information on the different sizes of motors and programable back theme colours as well as tire size comparaison with similar EV’s.
Best, most comprehensive review so far... great job!
Thanks for braving the weather to bring us this review!
So thorough. Your detailed reviews are really appreciated. I can't wait to see how the EV6 stacks up.
Amazing review. You are so detailed, thorough, and well spoken.
Very thorough as always Alex. This EV is the most tempting for me of them all.
Great review as usual. I live in an apartment in the Midwest, so I’m not in the market for an EV. But if I was, I think this is the one I would get. Very impressive! And I love the futuristic look. Kudos to Hyundai for producing the Ionic 5!
It is a pleasure to watch such a well done, comprehensive, unbiased review. Great work. I also checked out your "landscaping" channel.
5:53 Up to 68 miles range gained in 5 minutes, thanks to 800v system.
That doesn't matter because no body makes a 800v charger.
I am definitely keeping my eyes on these. Glad to hear the ride is good, as that is very important to me. I do hope they add the 4 way lumbar.
I like the looks and it's hard to make up your mind between the cars but these videos help alot, thanks
I think this might be my favourite EV to date.
Excellent information. Thank you. I have really liked the Ioniq 5 since it first appeared - love the styling. I’m in the market for an EV purchase and have decided on the Ioniq 5 over all of the other options out there.
Great review Alex! I will get the IONIQ 5 AWD Limited as soon as it is available in SW Florida. Two dealers within 35 of me indicated they’ll have them within a month (by end of January). My only concern is dealer markups early in the model year. Have no intention paying more than MSRP.
Would definitely purchase the Ioniq 5. Thanks for the great review!
Thanks to you for such a thorough explanation and review as always. Questions forming as you are explaining things get answered before I can get to the comments box……😃
Amazing review. Best I’ve seen yet and I think I’ve seen most of them. 😆. I’m really excited to get this car.
The center console slides, I saw it on Car Confections review.
15:48 I am very pleased with the 'gearshift' being column-mounted. Frees up considerable space!
Yes, I wish manufacturers would do away with bulky console shifters and provide more space.
Picking up my digital teal ioniq 5 limited tomorrow. Can’t wait to bring it home. The id4 awd pro s was a runner up. In the end, the lack of a heat pump, ventilated seats, and the 360 degree camera pushed me to the ioniq 5. I also enjoyed the driver seating position better on the ioniq.
Nice review...nice vehicle ! Two things: 1] please provide an entire episode on the charging networks in the U.S.; when will we all have 800-volt charging stations ?; 2] When you discuss relative prices, please provide a table on-screen....as no one can remember the numbers at the speed that you present them....with all of the model variations.
I’m worried about those hidden door handles. Living up north we have freezing winters. Will those door handles get frozen stuck?
Informative review. Very much appreciated the details provided on the different sizes of motors, tire sizes, batteries, programable back theme colors and etc. The best thing is it charges in 18 minutes at (CCS from 10-80%) and is priced below the key competition, which is surprising.
Alex, you sold me on the softer ride!! Thanks!!
Superb (p)review as always! Thanks, Alex.
Can you turn off “creep” upon lifting your foot off the gas? How about preventing it from rolling forward or backward with gravity?
Thanks Alex! Love yr reviews always on point and a full range review will put the cherry on top of a great review. If I had to put my money down, it would be this or the ID4 RWD only when that comes from Tennessee.
thx great video, what colour is this Alex? is this the digital teal? Our CND site has very little accuracy in terms of the colour samples.
Such a fun design, love the styling!
HI ALEX, GOOD JOB!!! You are only about the 2nd guy to mention the IONIC-5's lack of a rear window wiper/washer!!! ( the other was the British guy with the nice looking I-Talian wife!!! It seems to me ANY hatchback car, verses a sedan that has a trunk, HAS to need a wiper!! And for $40-50 thousand bucks?? That's nuts!! I DO LOVE IT, THOUGH, because I'm a big guy, with size 16 shoes, and I'm ALWAYS BANGING MY KNEE ON THE DAMN CENTER CONSOLE!!! And I'm VERY HAPPY to hear you say how nice it rides!! THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR!! Now if they could just make the frunk a little bigger...... THANKS ALEX!! AND THANKS ALSO FOR ALL THE GREAT, EXTREMELY DETAILED REVIEWS YOU'VE GIVEN US ALL THROUGHOUT THIS CRAZY YEAR!!!! CHAS ORVIS, PLAINVILLE, CT. PS : BE CAREFUL, STAY SAFE!!!
Same on heat pumps in homes. We put in 2 mini split heat pumps last year and the winter power bill got cut in half from out old electric forced air furnace. We also keep the house much warmer now since it's so cheap to run. As a bonus we get great a/c last summer that was also very cheap to use.
I really like that this has a heat pump… that’s one of the reasons I leaned toward Tesla EVs. So excited for more EV competition!
Funny that Prius had heat pump before all these EVs. It must have been a cost factor for Tesla before not using it.
@@MrRaitzi it is only in the Prius Prime, right?
@@garrettw99 I don't know currently. It was 2017 when they introduced it and has been in Euroopan models ever since to my understanding.
I think only the AWD versions have the heat pump.
Is heat pump that rare? I had an option to order heat pump in Kia Soul EV, which is previous generation compared to Ioniq5. I actually didn't get it, because according to calculation, it would only improve the range about 5%-10% in the winter, and I don't travel on long distance on cold seasons.
He didn’t mention that the rear seats slide fore and aft, in addition to reclining. (Depending on seat recline position I imagine).
That is one of the differences between this and the ev6.
So, I have owned a 2021 AWD Mach-E First Edition for nearly a year. I absolutely love the car. But, I purchased my wife a 2022 Audi e-tron quattro premium plus vehicle, and now find any excuse to borrow her car on the weekends. Just a beautiful vehicle with awesome power, handling, and interior styling. Having said that, the price difference was $20,000. So although I believe EV producers should strive to make affordable vehicles for all, you have to acknowledge that there will be a tradeoff in quality, performance, ride, and build.
Great review Alex. You sold me on the Ionic 5. I’ve driven a Mach E. I thought it was a lot of fun, even the fake engine noise. I would generally go with the more sporty handling car because I have just regrettably unloading my Golf R, arguably the best car I’ve ever had. I also drove a wheel rear drive ID4 at the beginning of 2021 and found it to be disappointing mainly because it was slower and Han my BMW i3s. That being said I have owned about 15 Volkswagens in my 68 years and I’m looking to score an Eos for the summer. My first exposure to that vehicle was in the south of France. It was never widely distributed in the US for some reason. I was getting prepared to order a Audi Q4 which is the better appointed version of the VW. While my Jetta is in the body shop I was given a loaner that is a little Hyundai Kona. It’s actually very fun to drive but it’s under powered, but The shift the automatic does allow one to stay in the optimal gear. Fuel economy of course is really good for a gasoline vehicle.
Let's play the shot game, whenever Alex mentions "your favorite winding mountain road" or anything related to that statement, take a shot!!! I'd definitely be a little tipsy after this review...but it was a great review! Thanks Alex!
Fantastic review. This is the one for me - agree, trade ultimate perf for ride quality.
Wonderful and thorough review of the Hyundai Ioniq 5. I saw this car parked at a shopping center and I was impressed with its lines and look. I am looking to purchase a more comfortable and electric SUV (I currently own a 2015 Subaru Forester), and this is definitely in the running! I hope to have an opportunity to test drive one soon!
I love the profile of this newest vehicle from Hyundai. It reminds me of a modern-day Lancia Delta.
At 15:27 Alex mentions being surprised by the lack of a logo in the middle of the steering wheel. Actually they were a little clever with that because there is the letter H there, it's just in Morse code (four dots).
Excellent review as usual 👍
omg i've been waiting for these reviews!
This is the most common mistake Ioniq 5 reviewers make. With the luggage net in the trunk removed, the second row recline is surprisingly more. and If you open the front trunk and open the cover, you can easily change the air filter. This is incredibly easy maintenance.
The back seats also slide correct? He didn’t mention that either.
Ordered the 77 kWh AWD fully loaded. My only gripes are the long waiting list (semiconductor shortage) and the lack of a rear wiper.
Ditto. Stuck waiting until August. I am curious as to the financing rates on the vehicle
Thanks Alex. Re. the rear center leg space, the center console should be able to slide forward to free up rear space, right? Perhaps only on some trims, but this appears to be the top trim with pano roof and should have the sliding console.
Yes ... the center console was in its furthest back position. And they are definitely adjustable ... and I'm also willing to bet it's a standard option on all trims.
Correct, it was in the furthest back position in the video, made to allow entering the vehicle from either side then hopping from one front seat to the other without having to exit the vehicle. It's one of the main interior features that Hyundai loves to show off, so it's weird that it wasn't explained to Alex...
Very surprised Alex missed the sliding console feature. Hyundai has made a big deal out of that feature.
Sliding center console also serves as armrest when using the "relaxing" reclining seat positions.
Unfortunately sometimes you miss things. He may have not had the vehicle with him that long, or was pressed for time with other review vehicles, or he just forgot, which can happen too.
Awesome review!
Got one on order in this colour too. The centre console moves
Seems like a very good choice for the average customer. Will be interested in your comparison comments on Ionic 5 versus EV6
Awesome review. Thank you!!
I'm really enjoying my Tucson PHEV, and if I was going full EV tomorrow I'd definitely go with the Ioniq 5 (of the three mentioned).
Love my Tucson PHEV! Alex, I'm still waiting for your review on the Tucson PHEV! Please....by the way great review as always.
See you guys in a year when everything starts breaking apart. After all, it’s a Hyundai.
@@TacoMonster4eva That's your opinion. I think you under estimate Hyundai. But that's your opinion. 👍
Nice review
The only reviewer who explained why frunk space is small while everyone else just complained. Alex just truly understands cars
Thanks for the great video. I was interested for AWD model for bad weather.Does it have a mode to use AWD only when you need it and RWD at all other times to increase miles per charge as the RWD?
Fantastic and thorough review. Aside from the center console haha. I’m leaning towards this over the Mach-e for, lower price, better tax/rebate incentives, faster charging and better tech. I know everyone is testing the limited but according to Hyundai site the limited is the only trim with the pano roof, and it seems other trims have a solar panel roof? I’m going to see one this week but curious if there was any info about that. Really the only feature I’d want on the limited trim.
Ride quality & suspension tuning of Ioniq 5 can earn my business. Such a neglected aspect of some of the leading EVs. They are too stiff and bouncy for my taste.
Center console moves back and forth allowing extra leg room for the back center passenger. It was in the back position during this review.
Alex, the center console slides back and forth like 6 inches. The whole thing moves. Surprised you missed that.
Very helpful review. There are also excellent companion reviews among the UK car review channels. Much appreciated given this specific product and the Mach E are the models we're focused on. I wonder if Hyundai will be easier to deal with than Ford? My 2021 purchase of a F150 showed how poorly Ford communicates with and supports customers with pending orders...which these days will inevitably be all of us.
How much? Does it have self drive feature?
Very good video , I have just ordered in Canada the long range AWD ultimate package, the only fault I found on my test drive was the car really needs a rear window wiper , after I drove 10/15 mins in the rain I could not see a thing out of the back window. I hope Hyundai come use with some type of after market kit here in British Columbia we get a lot of rain.
Great review. Does the roof open? Are there rear cup holders?
good review ! thnx
Best review I’ve seen. Thanks
Hi Alex thanks for this review! Please review the 39k smaller battery Ioniq5-- also will all versions of the Ioniq5 come with the vehicle-to-load inverter allowing the battery to be used as a power generator? Thanks!
I think you forgot to mention that the centre console slides forwards or backwards. That will fix the protrusion issue to the back seats.
My first car was a Hyundai Excel POS
Now this is the car that I want, amazing.
This could possibly be my first Hyundai and EV car.
Great video! The Hyundai Ioniq 5 looks absolutely amazing! It is spacious, flexible and has a sustainable interior made from sugar cane components and crushed PET bottles.
Thanks for mentioning the lack of adjustable lumbar support. Did you get to check out the headlights?
I like that it the Ioniq 5 has a good ride quality and it handles well. I also like that you can get premium audio, which I don't see in the ID 4 and it has a built in sun shade that you can close on those hot summer days. Something the Mustang Mach E does not. Thanks Alex!
Man, I want one of these so bad. I was looking at a sorento hybrid, and a highlander hybrid. But I may hold out for a while to see how this drives in my area. It looks so cool!
How is the headroom? I am 6'6" and I barely fit into the Y, but I fit much better in the ID4. Excellent video!
Absolutely Magnificent INSIGHT 👌🏿
I love your car reviews.
Hi Alex, four dots on steering wheel is Morse code for H.
I was looking for this comment.
Maybe I Am mistaken, but can't you move the centre console back and forth?
i dont get your notifications much anymore when a new vid comes out from you.
This is the first EV car that really has caught my eye! It’s so good looking! Gives off a retro, Audi-like hatch rally design.
It’s so good looking in my eyes that I recently went to my nearest Hyundai dealership, and just test drove one today. I’m a die hard manual sports car guy, but if I had the ability to buy an EV car for the city, this would be the car I would get!
I test drive an AWD SE model. To say the least, I loved it! Exterior is banging looking, but the interior is so nice! Ergonomics are very very good. The sport settings are at your thumb, placed perfectly on the steering wheel. The steering wheel paddles are perfect to adjust the braking system. The screens are beautiful. Suspension was amazing, it was quick, and the car didn’t feel too heavy or big (despite it being heavy and big). It’s the perfect EV vehicle IMO, except for the range rating. I wish it had a 400 mile range. That’s the only gripe I have about it. Love the car!!
This is so awesome to read from you as you stated, you’re a manual sport car kind of person. This and the Hyundai Elantra N have really caught my eye.
This thing looks cool!
Just took a test ride of Ionic 5 SE AWD in NJ. I have to say, the ride is pretty sweet and the torque is great. The car looks small from outside but is very spacious on inside. HOWEVER... one bummer is going to be the dealer. They told me all vehicles will be priced MSRP+$5,000. Non negotiable. Which means the bottom line price of car is more than an ICE after any Federal and/or NJ State incentives (if any) .....no point in going EV then other than to cut on emissions.
Hyundai dealers mark up the price of anything popular, not just EVs. They did/do that with the Palisade. The point of going EV is all the advantages. Smoother and quieter, less maintenance, better safety, more space inside.
This was a very complete review with excellent video throughout. My understanding is that the console on this particular model has both fore and aft sliding capability so I would have liked to have seen that in action. If the console does in fact slide forward then it might not have had to protrude into the rear seat area as much as it showed in the video. I would agree with the reviewer about the look of the wheels and steering wheel which are two areas where Hyundai seems to have dropped the ball. My only other constructive comment about the review would be that the reviewer spoke very quickly for the most part which is somewhat understandable given how much information was communicated. However, given the length of the video, this does become tiring pretty quickly. Overall though I was very happy about the amount of information that was communicated.
