Love My 2025 Ioniq 5 But....
Going from my 2022 Ioniq 5 Limited to a 2025 Limited was both a good and bad experience. I love some new features such as a rear window wiper, rear heated seats, bigger battery with extended range and one-touch battery preconditioning. I do not love the new console design. I am a woman and I now have to lift the armrest to place my purse between the seats and if I need something from my purse it's a pain to access it. I do not like the radio design. It now takes me three steps to set SiriusXM to choose my favorite stations and go to the screen that allows me to FF, pause or rewind live radio. My 2022 remembered these settings and presented the same radio screen every time I started the car. And, BTW, the album background is still awful and ruins the symmetry of the screens! I also do not love that you are STILL using the awful BOSE SOUND SYSTEM! Seriously, it's the WORST! A 1992 Dodge Caravan has a better sound system! I find the driver's seat to be as comfortable as my 2022 but the 2025 is not as fun to drive. It seems less zippy and not as smooth as my 2022. I also have more anxiety concerning ICCU and traction battery pack failure. Overall, I think the pros and cons of driving this car just about even out. I have been purchasing and driving Hyundai vehicles exclusively for the past 35 years. I very much hope this is not the first one to let me down.
