Great car, software lags

This is a great car, as a daily driver and for the long trips. Great fast charging, comfortable and a pleasure to drive. The software running on it? Not so much - from the little things, as the bottom up display of the next turns or exits - to the opaque and lagging release of updates for maps and software.

Great vehicle, minor complaints

Driver door should lock automatically when leaving, but biggest complaint is having to always adjust braking every time it is put into drive.

Our good choice

First off we’re glad we purchased an electric vehicle. Everything seems to be working fine and very dependable. We have used both a 220 and a 110 charging and if you’re no rush, 110 is excellent.

Ioniq 5 vs Tesla

Excellent vehicle. Overall, very comparable to my previous Tesla. Better ride than my Tesla. The range is less than my Tesla's, and charging outside the home is a little more complicated. The instrument panel is more cumbersome, but offers more options. Less road noise than the Tesla, but some rattles.

Over $52,000, for what?

This is not the Tesla Model Y. The only thing I like about this car is the Hyunday app, that's it. The shape is different, but everything is basic in this car. While it is quiete, but there a Loud windy noise coming from the rear right side,.

The Most Unreliable Car I've Ever Owned

This car is great when it runs, but over the past year, it's completely died and had to be towed three times due to ICCU/battery problems.

The software is not easy to set up

I had the first maintenance due notice, I took my car to the service in San Bruno, CA. I was told the Due notice will go away after 24 hours, but it never go away.

Pleasure to drive

It’s good for someone transitioning from gas to electric. It is a heavier drive than some electric vehicle which make it easier to control.

Really enjoying the vehicle. Efficient and versatile. The software is by far the worst part of this vehicle.

Needs some upgrade in its software

Excellent vehicle, but I miss a few features that my Tesla Y had, which are, I believe, quite easy to apply through software updgrades.

First time EV driver.

The car is nice! Since I was a first time EV driver there was a lot to get used to. I wish I received a little more information from the dealership yet the overall performance is great! The phone bank gets entirely too hot. I also would have liked the charger to be on the other side. Other than that I’m please!

I love this car! (But I’m nervous)

I enjoy driving this car more than any I’ve ever owned. It’s my first EV and, especially right now, I love not paying for gasoline! I have a level 2 charger in my garage and it’s super convenient. I’m getting better and more confident about taking it on longer trips as well. The technology is top notch, the maps and navigation work great, the cameras and highway driver assist are amazing. I have a HUD on my Limited as well, which I love. The only thing I’m nervous about are tue ICCU issues. As much as I love the car, I always feel a low level anxiety about the ICCU popping and being dead in the water. Hyundai must come up with a reliable and permanent fix for this issue which has affected far too many of their EVs. Exact numbers aren’t released but estimates range from 3% to 10% of vehicles suffering from this issue. I hope that I’m in the luckier 97% and will never have to deal with it, but it seems like quite an Achilles heel for an otherwise incredible EV!

Add a few things, take away a few things.

Mostly positive developments over my '24 Ioniq 5. A rear window wiper! (but only 12", boo!) Flopped some of the steering wheel controls (why?) Took away the drivers overhead grab handle. I know via Reddit that many have run into charging system problems. I have not.
