Hey Charlie, I really like that car not sure about the digital side mirrors I think I'd pass on those but it looks like another winner for the Hyundai group!!! They are really bringing some compelling vehicles out to the public..👍👍👍
Yes, B I agree. I heard the digital side mirrors are only for the Korean market, but let's wait and see. Thanks for enjoying the 1st drive with the IONIQ 5. Thanks.
The cameras are almost the same size as normal mirrors. It's just another thing that get's costly in a repair. It also doesn't look it covers the whole blind spot, so the only real advantage for a camera isn't even there.
Thank you for a great review. Being a owner of the i30 N, I had already thought of next car being electric. Hyundai are the most impressive car manufacturer out there. So it only makes sense that the Ionia 5 belongs in my drive.

Great 1st review, next time please do an in dept review. Rear-seats, trunk, frunk etc. I love Korea, spent 10 days in Seoul a few years back, amazing city and people
Thank you so much for doing the review of the new 5. Can't wait to see it in the UK. I'm really excited to see the Kia EV 6 too. Keep up the great work.
I enjoy watching your excitement & enthusiasm. I caught myself smiling several times while watching. Awesome car--looking fwd to seeing in person. Really enjoyed seeing the city , river, & charging station, too!
This and the EV6 look like game changers - especially if they come in around $45K as you suggest. (Between the apparent fit-and-finish, amenities, and fantastic styling, they look like they would cost at least $10K more.)
Love the car, but I think I’d skip paying for the digital side mirrors. They don’t look very well integrated like the Audi ones. That said I really like this car. I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time. Thanks Charlie!
As someone who has a preorder for the Ioniq 5 here in NZ, this was a really useful and helpful review. Thank you. I like what I see, the overall fit and finish, drivability and the functionality of the 5. The Korean pricing is really interesting too, and I am looking forward to finding out how that translates into NZ pricing. It was also very nice to see you were able to do most of this review without a face mask. Thank you again for taking the time to create this informative review.
Do the screen has a have a dark mode, and does it come with a black frame? When the inside is black or dark, a black frame around the screen would fit nice.
I agree. Like the car in general - love the 800 volt charging and V2L, but the screen looks odd - too big of a border. Wasted screen space and looks cheap. Do not like the digital mirrors - take up too much interior room.
If they are going to go side view mirror cameras, the screens have to be blended in to the interior much better. Just putting screens on the doors, looks terrible. Also why is the side view mirror cameras so big, I thought the whole point is to make it smaller for better aero. Might as well have a normal side view mirror.
Also that charging station is phenomenal! But only thing I don’t get is the paddle braking? I think that would confuse people who are use to paddle shifters
Charlie, thank you for a great video. Will place a pre-order reservation for it; this’ll replace my ID.4 AWD pre-order …. this is a better EV. Cheers from the US!
Been bugging my friend who works in the Hyundai dealer to bring this in. I would gladly support Korean made EVs, and besides, Korean cars have become the top car purchased here by a long shot.

Yes, agree. But the IONIQ 5 looks so much better in Silver, Green or Blue. Thanks.
@@AsianPetrolhead i pre ordered project 45 ionic 5 was only avalianle in 4 colours black,white, teal green, and matte gold
I like your reviews a lot! The way you speak makes them even better.
Thank you Alex for your support and your interest in the IONIQ 5.
Thanks so much. I cant wait to see the Kia.. Im torn between the two
Yes, hope to show you Kia EV6 soon. Thanks for enjoying our 1st drive of the IOINIQ 5. Thanks Alex.
First class video. Very informative so thank you. Wish I had those charging stations where I live in the UK!!!
Thank you for enjoying the Hyundai IONIQ 5 review and yeah hope you guys get the rapid charging system in UK. Thanks Phil.

Looking forward to Hyundai’s evs. I’m a Japanese car guy, but Hyundai is killing it!
Curious about the fees for the 5 minutes of charging. Great video as always.
Oh, yeah, I forgot to check that. The Hyundai folks paid for me. Thanks for enjoying the IONIQ 5 first drive! Thanks.
19:00 $4 USD / 15.4 kwh / 4 min.
Thank you so much for doing the review of the new 5. Can't wait to see it in the UK. I'm really excited to see the Kia EV 6 too. Keep up the great work.
Can’t wait to C in us
Been waiting for this. Thank you Charlie! 🙏🏻
Thank you reeves for enjoying our 1st drive with the IONIQ 5.

I think I’d rather have the regular mirrors. Seems quicker to use IMO since you’ve gotta check what’s to the side of the camera
Thanks -- and looking even more forward to your preview of the EV6, which is my current favourite.
Yes, Jim. Hope to show you the Kia EV6 soon as well. Thank you for enjoying the IONIQ 5 first drive.
Wondering what would a North Korean say watching this. The technology advantage of the South Korea is just jaw dropping
I enjoy watching your excitement & enthusiasm. I caught myself smiling several times while watching. Awesome car--looking fwd to seeing in person. Really enjoyed seeing the city , river, & charging station, too!
Such a cool looking car
yes, Jack. This IONIQ 5 is really uniqe!
This and the EV6 look like game changers - especially if they come in around $45K as you suggest. (Between the apparent fit-and-finish, amenities, and fantastic styling, they look like they would cost at least $10K more.)
Dope 🔥🙌🏾
Thank you for enjoying our 1st drive of the IONIQ 5. Thanks.
Love the car, but I think I’d skip paying for the digital side mirrors. They don’t look very well integrated like the Audi ones. That said I really like this car. I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time. Thanks Charlie!
standard sidemirrors superior at least in my opinion...
I don't like the monitors either - looks a bit out of place & like an old navi, for co- and driver side. :-D
As someone who has a preorder for the Ioniq 5 here in NZ, this was a really useful and helpful review. Thank you. I like what I see, the overall fit and finish, drivability and the functionality of the 5. The Korean pricing is really interesting too, and I am looking forward to finding out how that translates into NZ pricing. It was also very nice to see you were able to do most of this review without a face mask. Thank you again for taking the time to create this informative review.
Thank you Ross for enjoying the IONIQ 5 first drive.
just gorgeous
Yes, Greg. The IONIQ 5 looks quite promising.

Thank you very much for the first test in the Ioniq 5.
It's a great electric car
Yes, the IONIQ 5 looks great and drives nicely.
Looks very good 😊 should come very soon to Europe !
Yes, Karl. Hope you guys get the IONIQ 5 soon in the Europe.
@@AsianPetrolhead in september
I ❤️ this car 😍 ... and this charging station is amazing ... in Europe we are still in the Middle Ages when it comes to charging stations 😬
Do the screen has a have a dark mode, and does it come with a black frame? When the inside is black or dark, a black frame around the screen would fit nice.
I agree. Like the car in general - love the 800 volt charging and V2L, but the screen looks odd - too big of a border. Wasted screen space and looks cheap. Do not like the digital mirrors - take up too much interior room.
@@johndleggett its magnetic so you can put photoes on them
Love your guys' videos from Korea! Great stuff and exciting to see the wonderful things the Korean brands are coming up with.
Thanks Perfect Code for your support and your interest about the IONIQ 5. Thanks.
If they are going to go side view mirror cameras, the screens have to be blended in to the interior much better. Just putting screens on the doors, looks terrible. Also why is the side view mirror cameras so big, I thought the whole point is to make it smaller for better aero. Might as well have a normal side view mirror.
True. I think, so too. Room for improvement. Thanks for enjoying the IONIQ 5 1st drive. Thanks.
That EV Station with rotating charging panel on top is just too AWESOME, very Sci-Fi !
hope they come to ENGLAND
Is this the best Electric car ever built?
Well, i think Tesla Model Y has better range, but overall design and built quality is better in IOINQ 5. Thanks.
yes car of the year 2021/22
I have been waiting for this and honestly I’m glad you was the first. The excitement you have in certain spots is just so genuine
Also that charging station is phenomenal! But only thing I don’t get is the paddle braking? I think that would confuse people who are use to paddle shifters
PLS BE $30K PLS BE $30k. GIMME GIMME THAT CAR!
What a dream that would be
Charlie, thank you for a great video. Will place a pre-order reservation for it; this’ll replace my ID.4 AWD pre-order …. this is a better EV. Cheers from the US!
Thank you for enjoying the Hyundai IONIQ 5 1st drive.
Great video. I don't think I've ever seen you smile so much driving a car before. You were like a little kid. It was fun to see. LOL!
Yes, this IONIQ 5 is very unique and fun. Thanks.
Norway here. Nice video dude. I bought a VW ID.3 Max last year but I'm guessing that I would have gone for this instead if it had been around.
Been bugging my friend who works in the Hyundai dealer to bring this in. I would gladly support Korean made EVs, and besides, Korean cars have become the top car purchased here by a long shot.
Yes, hope you guys get the IONIQ 5 soon. I am sure you guys will love it. Thanks.
