happy with my Ioniq5

It does feel not quite as high end as the Ioniq6 did, but overall a good car.

So far so good…

Leased a 2024 Ioniq 5 and when the lease was about up, looked for a used EV. I wasn’t finding anything that felt as comfortable as this. W/ promos this was the best deal out there. The 2026 includes the much needed updates that the 2024 didn’t have. My only concern is the ICCU issue some have has issues with. I’m hopeful it’s just a small % of owners.

Spacious, stylish, economical EV

My initial two and a half months of ownership has been fun with no problems. Smooth ride, easy to operate and excellent interior (spacious, informative and clear 12.3” screens and buttons for radio and AC)

Ioniq 5 2026

I really love this car. Going from a ICE vehicle to an EV has been incredible. Technology is great and the overall quality has been great. The biggest reason for the 4/5 is for the ICCU issue. I wish this would have been resolved sooner but appreciate the new warranty that covers it for longer.

Initial experiences with our Hyundai ioniq 5

Overall we are very happy with the car. There are a few quirky things that a software update would probably fix. Of course it could also be human error and programming our settings! The locking and unlocking is one issue, number two is the two different profiles that we use seem to change settings for the other one that are different. Particularly the seat positions, and turning on and off the charging settings. Overall it is a very comfortable car a very quiet car has great acceleration, charges quickly and without issue. I would recommend this vehicle.

Ioniq 5 Limited

Excellent vehicle. Good power and comfortable ride. Unfortunately had to bring in for early service since someone at the factory forgot to install the rear bumper bar.

It's not a Tesla

I traded in my 5 yr old Tesla Model 3 for the Ioniq 5. There are some features on the Ioniq I like better than the Tesla and some features on the Tesla that I like better than tge Ioniq.

I Love This Car!

I had leased a 2024 Ioniq 5. I liked it so much I bought this 2026 Ioniq 5 as soon as I could. Many of the minor control and entertainment system quibbles I had with the 2024 model were corrected, and the vehicle has a beautiful fit and finish. Smooth, fast, comfortable, super-quick charging with great range, and load capacity - what's not to love! Cool color, too, I think they call it "Ultimate Red!"

Great Driving Vehicle

A pleasant and fun car to drive. Excellent comfort. Infotainment system too complex. An indexed owner's manual needed.

Too many items removed from this trim level

Upgraded my 2023 to 2026 I would expect the same items included in the trim. BUT no heated steering wheel, no ambient lighting, no auto-close side mirrors. Why would these be removed? They are simple items. You don't expect to get the new same trim with less than what you had originally. Very very disappointed. Had I known these were not included any longer I would not have purchased the car.
