an amazing vehicle

I've never had a car like this and my previous vehicle was a Lexus hybrid. There are so many useful and fun features that make this a joy to drive and heck, just to sit in.

2023 Ioniq 5 Review

My family has enjoyed having the vehicle, as we have put roughly 20000 miles on it in about 18 months. It has great space for the 4 of us, and excellent technology. The process of charging both at home and at public chargers has been smooth, and the few services I've had to have on the car have also been so smooth compared to my ICE vehicles in the past.

Ioniq-5 Review

Really liked it until year 1.25 when a component failed while driving,c required a tow and was out of commission for over a month. Then at year 2 the battery died, requiring a tow and another repair. Too many disabling snafus.

Super dependable- enjoyable ride. Love the car. Have about 40k miles and it is still performing well. Mias the back wiper though especially with all the snow in NJ this month.

Great EV

No rear windshield wiper. Also my 12 V went out at 13,000 miles when I had the car just 17 months total and the week after I had a routine checkup. The roadside assistance told me the battery was dead (could not hold a charge) and thus I needed to be towed to the dealership (luckily that was covered) but then when I was there, the 12V "passed" the test so the dealer was not going to replace it. I finally was able to get it replaced anyway. I am now worried it

Simply the coolest car I've ever owned

The coolest, funnest car I've ever had the privilege to own. Space car!! The fast smooth acceleration is like taking off into space hyperdrive or something. Ha! We get over 300 miles on a full charge. Average mileage, driving the speed limit around town in Phoenix we get about 4.0 mi/kwh which makes it about $.02 per mile to drive. The utility company has a great EV plan. But the car is perfect for around town even when across town can be over 60 miles. Super reliable, zero complaints. 10/10 would recommend, as they say on the Internet.

I love this car.

Fun to drive. Only real complaint is long distance driving, which I dont do much of.

2023 Ioniq5

comfortable, quiet, low maintenance, curious fuel mapping - regularly in the past or wrong direction. Fuel cost is 10 cents when charging at home for 3 to 4.4 miles weather dependent. Distance travel exposes you to 50 cents for the same mileage which is a long term issue. Also, fast charge on the road is only available at CCS1 chargers, no Tesla charging and there are more of these.

I love this vehicle, but there are a few issues and oversights.

The Ioniq 5 is overall a fantastic vehicle. It's roomy, fast, economical, powerful, and feels great to drive. It's held back by some software limitations and persistent issues that Hyundai needs to address.

Ionic 5 Limited - Great EV, Fun to Drive, Lot of Features

I have had many new cars over the years and the Ionic 5 Limited has been the most fun getting know how to use all the technology and features, but also learning to navigate the electric vehicle. We had the car for a few weeks and drove from the northwest to Arizona. The car rove through blizzards, ice storms, and extreme heat, all the things that people said EVs would struggle with regarding battery life and charging it the Ionic 5 handled everything. The Ionic 5 has a Snow Mode and drives better than our AWD SUV in the snow. It was a fun trip and Ionic 5 Limited made it even more memorable. Regarding the design, I have receive several comments regarding the design and how people like it's looks. It has been called a rocket ship multiple times. The color of our Ionic 5 Limited is shooting star grey matte finish. I feel this is one of the best color combinations and people have come up to me to asked me about the color and finish. I also love the heads-up display it great to keep up engaged on log trips and to keep your eyes forward for safety when navigating.

I’d Give 4 1/2 Stars if that was a choice

I find the Ioniq5 very comfortable with ample amentities. I think the “loaded” version gives some nice additional capabilities, and is worth it. I love the quick acceleration, remote-operation hatchback and the windshield directional and speed display. My only minuses are the chronic 12-volt battery problem, which I solved by installing a “trickle charger”, and, of course, needing to use a NACS adapter. Also charging at a Tesla charging staion, since my port is not on the same side as theirs, is a pain. I know newer models have NACS built in and I hope Hyundai will consider moving the charging port to the driver side (Left Rear) of the car.

Comfortable and Roomy

I generally love the car. I really like the style inside and out. I opted for the light gray htex material which I think gives the inside of the cabin a really expansive and airy feel. Build quality has been very good and I haven't had any issues with rattles, misaligned body panels, or trim pieces coming loose. As a daily driver, the car is exceptional. Road trips are pretty easy as well thanks to the excellent charging curve and thermal management of the battery pack. Also, the charging station situation is significantly better than it was 3 years ago for those on the fence. The only folks that will do better at a charging station have generally spent 100K or more on their vehicles.Efficieny is generally in line with many crossover or SUV EVs. It is not up to the level of the Model Y in terms of efficiency, but part of that is a result of the aesthetics of the car which is a big selling point for me. The things that keeps it from being a five star experience are the base stereo and software issues. The audio quality is middling at best. I used to drive a base Bolt EV and the audio in that car was better. As for the software, I have no real issues with the layout or responsiveness of the system, but there are a couple of key weaknesses related to EV functionality. The first is that the route planning with charging stops is not great. You will find yourself defaulting to phone apps like "a better route planner". The leads into another issue in that battery preconditioning is tied to the native navigation app. So you are stuck using an inferior route planner, if you want to have optimal charging. Note this is really only issue for trips during cold weather, but if you live in a cold climate, you certainly have to be aware of this weakness.

As good as it gets!

The Ioniq 5 is close to being the perfect EV! Fist of all, Hyundai’s warranty eclipses just about all other manufacturers. This alone makes it #1. Then when you add the engineering, the ride, the comfort and the price point at each level of the Ioniq 5, it’s hard to find another EV that can compete. This is my 3rd Ioniq EV and long may this ride continue!

Two Year Review.

Overall, we have been happy with the car. There have been several software issues that have been unpleasant to live with - the more serious being that the heater would only blow cold air several times in December 2025.

Love the performance, and simplicity of this electric vehicle. Being stranded with a dead 12 volt battery, and unresolved rattle tarnish the experience.
