  • With a 4.4 second 0-60 sprint, AWD, wide tires and cubist retro styling, the Ioniq 5 looks more like a futuristic Volkswagen to my eye than a Hyundai, but that's not a bad thing in my book. If you're looking for one of the best EVs in America today, and hands down the fastest charging, check the Ioniq 5 out.

    I got my Ioniq5 limited AWD at the beginning of May and LOVE it. I got lucky and found a dealer who wasn’t charging any mark-up. It’s my 6th EV (which included a Model 3 LR) and it is the best all around EV that I’ve owned. Not as efficient as the Tesla and the tech isn’t as good, but it is better at everything else.
    One note is that the front motor is also used in Eco mode during higher regen events, such as pulling the regen paddle or stepping moderately on the brakes. This helps reduce the uneasiness that can happen when doing big regen numbers on just the rear axle (imagine pulling the parking brake at freeway speeds). I’ve seen 200kw of regen on my Ioniq5 when slowing from high speeds and even more from the EV6 GT. This was likely a lesson learned from Tesla who does almost all of their regen with the rear motor only, and is thus limited in how much regen braking they can do and has also caused some really sketchy driving in poor weather.
    I’m surprised at how well the Ioniq5 handles. It doesn’t feel super confident because the suspension is fairly soft causing it to roll quite a bit and it will move around a lot over bumps, but if you know vehicle dynamics you will see the the grip and the balance is very good. The ride quality is substantially better than the Model 3 I used to have, but the grip and dynamics are just as good. The Tesla had less body roll when pushed 60-70% but Teslas kind of fall apart when pushed to 80%+. The Ioniq5 doesn’t. The stability control is too intrusive in the Eco and Normal modes (especially in eco) but much better in Sport mode.
    The efficiency of the Ioniq5 isn’t good, but the charging speed largely makes up for it. As long as you can plug into at least a 150kw charger (that actually puts out 150kw) you’ll spend less than 20 minutes charging and then be able to drive for 2.5-3 hours. For me, that works out great, because odds are that after 3 hours of driving, I’ll need to use the restroom or at least appreciate getting up for a stretch.

      Along the lines of what Harris Mann actually designed and put into production with the Leyland Princess/Wolesley 18-22 (1975-1981), only that British Leyland's budget cutting of the time prevented him from giving it the hatchback configuration it deserved. It sure LOOKS like a hatchback though designed along these lines; it's front-wheel drive; HydroGas suspension; mid-size interior space in a compact length car; all the engine options, even the inline six, are transverse mounted, etc. Hyundai of course here delivers a hatch, even more interior room, and quality control and a powertrain unimaginable to BL.

    Power door handles came standard on our 2022 Ioniq5 SE AWD base model. You can also set them to open automatically as you approach with the key fob. Also there is a voice command option to operate the heated seats. It works okay but we usually turn them on before driving. After almost 4,000 miles of driving our overall efficiency is 4.4 miles/kWh.

    I was a little unsure of the actual exterior size and interior space until I finally got to see one/sit in one in person. It definitely feels spacious inside. The adjustability of the back seats is really nice - and I quite like the placement of the rear seat air vents. Not the best if you had a 3rd person in the middle, but great for the passenger on each side. I like the step-in height - but wish the door sill wasn't quite so wide. I sense a lot of dirty pant legs in winter. The Ioniq 5 remains high on my list of future vehicles to eventually replace my wife's Equinox. I've been very impressed with Hyundai since getting my Santa Cruz last fall. Styling is awesome, the matte grey paint that's available looks very cool, but I think it would be a nightmare to own and maintain. I think Hyundai really hit this one out of the park. The sales numbers show that a lot of folks agree too!

Not sure what you’re referring to with the tax, but I’m assuming that changes state to state. My local tax was about $500. On top of that, I get $2500 back in cash from local incentives and a $7500 federal tax credit (which I will receive in full).
      To the OP, I own an Ioniq5 and a Bolt EUV. The Ioniq is a better car in most ways, but the Bolt is excellent for the price. The let downs are the seat quality/comfort and the charging speed. If you’re in the car for less than 2 hours and don’t need to fast charge, it is a good car and a great value. I’ve road tripped my Bolt many times and it is definitely possible to do, just slow.

      In one sense, I agree. The EV efficiency is just not that great, my PHEV has better in EV mode. But they know what will sell, and that's speed, style, and cargo capacity over raw efficiency

    • @ouch1011
      @ouch1011 ปีที่แล้ว

      Trying to compare the efficiency of an original Ioniq to the Ioniq5 is like trying to compare the efficiency of a Prius to an Explorer. It’s apples and oranges. I wish the efficiency of the Ioniq5 was better, but when you have a big car with a lot of interior space, efficiency goes down. That can be seen even when just going between a standard Prius and Prius V (the wagon shape of the Prius V led to substantially worse efficiency) Also, they were going for a particular style (80s boxy) and that is hard to make aerodynamic. The EV6 is better in this regard but gives up too much interior headroom.
      The Ioniq6 is looking to be a much more aerodynamic (and probably more efficient) option.

      It is really tough to tell. Strictly city driving, I could get really close to the 300 mile range. Unfortunately, once a week or so, I go on the highway at 75-80 mph, and this blows my economical range numbers! The other thing that makes it hard to know, is I don’t drive until 0% charge. Sometimes I charge when there is 10% battery left, and sometimes 70% battery left. Makes it hard to know how much “true” mileage you get. The onboard estimated varies from 230 - 330 miles when the charge reaches 100%

      I’ve been in all of those cars and while the Ioniq5 maybe doesn’t ride as high as like the ID4, it has just as much or more passenger room than all of them. It has less cargo room than the Model Y and Mach-E because it is much shorter than those two. None of them are really SUV height and none would be any use off road.
