Great vehicle, subpar sensing and software

It’s a dream with a few exceptions: it often thinks I’m not paying attention when I am literally eyeing the road, it annunciates collision warnings when I am passing a turning car with no risk of collision, and the “minimum range” does not hold up, including multiple trips where 20 miles of minimum range disappeared through the trip. That is not what minimum means.

Ioniq 5

Overall, the car is great. However, little things are quite bothersome. You have different profiles for different drivers, but the vehicle does not recognize settings for the different drivers (adjusting seats, mirrors, etc.). Since the vehicle is electric, and the seats, mirrors, etc. are electric, the vehicle should adjust to each profile. Also, the drive mode always reverts back to level 3 no matter who is driving and when one switches from drive to reverse. If I want to drive in one pedal mode, I need to adjust the vehicle, and if I want to drive in economy, i need to adjust that as well. The issue is that if I put the car in reverse or shut it off, the settings automatically reverts to level 3. It’s annoying, especially for an electric car with the computer ability.

A couple of suggestions

All good for the drivetrain and controls. The only a couple of complaints. The windshield washer is poor: not enough fluid and not dispersed well. The grime builds up on the windshield and, since it’s an EV, I don’t get to clean it at the gas pump. The passenger seatbelt rattles annoyingly when not in use. I clip the belt to the empty seat to get it to stop.

Best car I've ever owned

The Ioniq 5 is the best car I've ever owned. It's comfortable, fast, quiet, and has enough room for whatever we need to haul. The build quality is top notch and I love to drive it.

Great so far!

4 months in, an assessment of the Ioniq 5 Limited. Love it all except for the turning radius, which is not tight enough for most parallel parking needs.

My second Ioniq 5, it will not be my last

This is my second Ioniq 5 replacing the 2023 that just completed his lease. I loved the first model, and love the second one even more. There are about 30 updates to it that have improved the car, yet the price has gone down by about 15%. This car is just a pure joy to own and to drive, I will never be buying another gas-powered car again for sure!

Nothing like my Dodge Hellcat, but still pretty fun to drive!

Comfortable, fun to drive, safety features, wish the interior (door panels specifically) was easier to keep clean

Gorgeous, Luxury Vehicle

Previously owned a Kona EV, and dreamed of owning an Ionic 5. I traded in, purchased the Limited model and remain excited and proud each time I walk to open the door, It has every modern safety feature, has gorgeous white faux leather upholstery with a super elegant blue painted exterior. It is a comfortable drive and ride and exceeds my expectations. This car is a competitor to all name brand luxury EVs but half the cost. Go buy one today!

Broken within 2 months

The ICCU problems are AWFUL. Hyundai should be embarrassed it's still releasing a car with these problems years after it was first made known. Shame on you.

Zoomies

A really terrific vehicle. It has tremendous range so no range anxiety. Rides really well, quiet and is packed with features. Still have not had time to go over everything this car has to offer.

smooth ride but...

A nice ride but there are many improvements to be made. First and foremost is the key fob. If Hyundai wanted to make millions (more) dollars, they would sell a slim key fob as an alternative to the boulder sized key fob we owners all have to carry. The rear view camera is partially obstructed by the license plate. But that issue pales in comparison to the ridiculous key fob.

I gave you my count. More than happy to drive the car but believe that Hyundai owes me an accounting to help me out on this new car.
