Overall, I am very satisfied with my newly purchased IONIQ 5

Overall, I am very satisfied with my newly purchased IONIQ 5. First of all, compared to a gasoline-powered vehicle, it has significantly reduced my fuel costs. The wide field of view from the driver's seat greatly improves driving safety, and the spacious interior helps reduce driver fatigue on longer trips. I am very satisfied with the driving convenience, safety, and overall ride comfort. However, I would like to suggest two areas for improvement. First is the lifespan of the factory-installed tires. Before purchasing my current IONIQ 5, I leased the same model for two years. When I returned the leased vehicle, it had only about 22,000 miles on it, yet I was required to pay for a complete set of replacement tires. This is well below the expected average lifespan of a set of tires and could leave customers with a negative impression of the IONIQ 5. Second, the wireless charger located in the center console next to the driver's seat needs improvement. I use a Samsung Galaxy smartphone, and every time I place it on the wireless charger, the phone becomes extremely hot. As a result, I am unable to use the charger at all. I am not sure whether this issue is specific to the charger in my vehicle or if it affects all IONIQ 5 models. Either way, I believe this issue should be addressed and improved.

Great EV but Infotainment Needs Improvement

Everything is great--drives well, has nice layout, and gets good range--but the Infotainment system is complicated and has a very poor implementation of SiriusXM. Apple CarPlay is decent but could be better. Other that, though, the car is great.

I wish I could love you

This is a fantastic car with one major strike: the ICCU issue that Hyundai has gone silent about.if it weren't for that, I would wholeheartedly recommend this car to anyone who would listen.

Even better than I expected.

I traded 2021 Tacoma for my Ioniq 5 SEL. Of course the Ioniq 5 is more comfortable, there is no comparison. But the flat floor and roomier interior has been so very nice. The car is also much quieter and the tech is much more modern. Performance wise the Ioniq 5 is very solid. It goes, turns, and stops better than anything I have owned in the past. My complaints are few but include the placement of the heated seats switch, I bump it once in a while and find out it is on when my seat is nice and toasty. Not a nice surprise in the summer. I have installed the EcoHitch on it but there is no Hyundai wiring harness available in the US, even though they sell it in Canada. That could so easily be solved. Efficiency is not great compared to a Model 3, but I knew that going in. It is plenty good for everything I do except road trips, where it can be a challenge. In the end I suppose I am more impressed with the car than I expected I would be. I knew a lot about it before I made the jump and still, I am surprised by things, in a good way. It is so much fun to drive and it is so confidence inspiring. Plus it's a hoot to take people who have never been in an EV for a ride. I am not swayed by looks on most cars but the more I own this one, the more I like it. It matches me and my nerdiness.

My Favorite Car Ever

I did test drive a couple of other EVs, but can't pretend to have driven many. Having said that, this is my favorite car ever for all sorts of reasons. It simply strikes me as the most thoughtful car ever, not in a budget category, but neither is it a luxury vehicle, which is my sweet spot for a car.

The car is great. The constant anxiety not so much/

I love my 2026 Ioniq 5 LTD. I really debated buying it because of the ICCU and 12V battery issues. I went ahead anyway hoping it would never happen to me. It has not happened yet but I do live with constant anxiety about it, especially on road trips far from home. If Huyundai would deal with/fix this issue once and for all the car would be perfect.

Don’t buy an Ioniq 5

I love my car but it doesn’t reliably charge with a type 2 charger. This means I cannot take it on a trip that requires charging. My dealer says nothing is wrong with the car. Daily, I receive 150 or more erroneous notifications on BlueLink that my car has received a request to charge. These notifications come even when the car is not plugged in

Electric car is fun to drive!

This is my first electric car, I love driving it! I didn't realize it would be so fun to drive, so smooth with great acceleration! I love the car, my only complaint is that it is hard for me to get in and out of drivers seat, the steering wheel impedes me, and there is a long reach in order to steo out of car. I am short, maybe this is why I have a hard time!
