Feels cheaply made

Compared to the 2024 model, this feels cheaply made. I can feel wind coming through the doors and hate that automatic lift gate isn’t included.

HYUNDAI 2025 IONIQ 5

Vehicle Battery needed to be replaced less than 7 months in. Took 3 weeks to get replaced. The car does not hold a charge for the mileage it claims it does. The electrical system often doesn't work. Lights go on for no reason. It won't connect to Apple CarPlay. The Siri system doesn't work much of the time.

Let down by Hyundai

We fell in love with our Ioniq 6 and honestly became Hyundai super fans — recommending Hyundais to family and friends, but when we leased our 2025 Ioniq 5 XRT the cars’ reliability and the dealer experience were a complete letdown. It is almost comical how poorly they have taken care of us. My car has been towed into the dealership four times with less than 9k miles and hyundai simply does not care. I have never been treated so poorly or carelessly in my life by a corporation — and I have owned lots of cars.

Very loud squeek has put us off

We really liked our car until about a week ago when it started making a horribly loud and awful sounding screech. We took it in, but the dealer couldn't find anything. They were also apalled when they listened to our recording of the loud noise. We took it home. It's been OK for a week, but earlier today it started screaming again...

Generally an awesome car

So far, I have loved my Hyundai Ioniq 5. I did have one issue - at only 10K miles, an electronic component died, leaving me broken down on the side of the road. I read that this was a common issue, although unfortunately I don't remember the name of the part that expired. My other issue is driver profiles. The main purpose of a driver profile is to customize seat and mirror positioning, with other settings being secondary. The Ioniq 5 does not save seat and mirror positions into its driver profiles, which a bit of a complaint because multiple family members drive my car.

Great Ride

I’ve been very happy with this car overall. No major issues and only minor complaints on accessibility and some quirky technology issues.

Don’t Waste Your Money

Spent $60k, value 6 months later $28k. I learned this when I tried to move back into a gasoline powered car and talked dealership. Thankfully I leased so I didn’t suffer the ownership pain. . The GM of Feldman Hyundai let me know that was the problem with EV’s. Didn’t say this when I was signing the paperwork. Because I cannot go further than 2 hours til l I have to charge, I was trying to get out of it. If you put the ac or heat on, you can’t even go 2 towns over.

Love the car but it broke down 3 times in 1 year due to battery

The battery issue makes me not want to own a Hyundai again. Love the electric car but it's embaressing to have my car towed 3 times, espeically when I'm trying to tell people having an EV is great and a Hyundai is better than a Tesla.

Over achieving my expectations

I wasn’t sure about buying my first Hyundai, and the Ioniq 5 was not my first choice for an EV, but it was the last option available to me on the last day of the federal rebates.. so I took a leap. And wow has it over delivered!

I think I'll keep it

I signed a 24 month lease to see if an EV was right for me. It's getting toward the end of the lease term and I'm so happy with the car I've decided to buy it.

Great driving car, flawed controls

We love the EV experience of the Ioniq 5. The drive quality is great, and the car is fun to drive. The interior controls need to be improved as does their placement. The blue color for all the controls gets washed out in the sunlight and is hard to see. The placement of the controls is far too low and distracts from driving. The font size for the icons as well as the thickness of the print are far too small. One needs perfect vision to see anything if you do not use prescription eyeglasses for driving. The screen itself needs to be bigger. There is a whoosh whoosh sound when driving with the windows down. It would be nice if you could engineer this out. The rear wiper is too small and leaves too much of the rear windshield unwiped. And the whirr of the electric motor is loud inside the cabin at higher speed. It would be nice if you could dampen this noise. The placement of the steering wheel relative to the door is also off, and makes it difficult for your legs to clear the wheel when entering the car. I think the steering wheel is too far forward relative to the placement of the door. It would be nice if the key and the phone worked consistenly as proximity keys, and always unlocked when you are near the car, vs. some of the time. It is also very annoying that the user does not automatically change when the car is unlocked with the phone of user 1 or user 2. It is really annoying to have to do this manually every time. The software is really clunky for a car that is supposed to be high tech. The user experience, from entry to exit needs to be vastly improved. It should be seamless with a phone app and phone, but it's clunky. Lastly, it would be nice if you eventually made a longer version of the car (4") as there is minimal space in the rear, making this car a non-starter for a family trip, and even difficult for driving to sports events with lots of kids equipment.
