Getting Picky After Living With the Ioniq 5

Finding things I like and don't like about the Ioniq 5. I own the car, so I shouldn't call it ugly, think AMC Pacer, but it is plain. Not stylish on the outside, but I really like the interior and the openness of the passenger compartment. It's comfortable and grey interior is balanced by the white interior so it looks good together. The turning radius is poor compared to my Subaru Outback, but apparently it comes from the longer wheelbase and 19" rims.

I love this car but the door handles stick out when its unlocked and it doesn’t lock automatically. This is a terrible design flaw of you live in a big city like me

I have honestly never loved a car before but I LOVE this one

This is by far the best car I have ever owned. It is comfortable, stylish and incredibly economical to drive.

CLOSE TO 5 STARS

Only frustrated by annoying message to KEEP MY EYES ON THE ROAD AND HANDS ON THE WHEEL while doing just that. They should fix that with a software update.

It's Not The Car, It's The Care.

I bought this car June 11, 2026. I have trouble with Hyundai of Palm Springs fixing issues associated with the vehicle. I have had trouble with Hyundai of Yuma, fixing issues with the vehicle. I have had trouble with Hyundai Customer Care in resolving issues. It's not the car, it the service, It's the lack of integrity, lack of knowledge, training and general attentiveness. Hyundai of Palm Springs= I had to pay double for registration because they failed to send the registration in to DMV. After a month of driving, many phone calls, I paid for registration myself at the local DMV. I signed a document stating NOT to install the front license plate bracket; they did anyway. Hyundai of Yuma=No one is trained to diagnose the level 2 charger supplied with the vehicle (ICCB). So, they lie to you about the charger, instead of admitting they have not been trained. The first lie; "It's not a level 2 charger." Lie 2; "It won't charge at 30 amps." UNACCEPTABLE! Hyundai Customer Care= They DON'T. these matters were brought to them (Celeste) after bad service from dealers. They do nothing to intervene! HCC doesn't care dealers employ untrained service technicians, that they ruin the bumper of a car, they make you pay double registration fees. AND, I only have 1500 miles on it! I paid an additional $3080.00 for extended warranty!

I love my IONIQ 5. It feels stable and is very responsive. The dashboard is large and clear. The cockpit is comfortable.

Good Range Good Driver Leg Room

I bought the car for the range and driver leg room. It has both. I also find the safety features to be very well designed. The driver alert system however does not recognize that I am paying attention to the road. It has even canceled the cruise control due to mis-sensing. The lack of a spare tire is another concern. Some great features however are the headlight visibility, frunk compartment, and providing the adapters needed to use almost any charging station.

Comfortable & Quiet RWD Limited

Nice quiet ride. Performance is good. Would like a little more space behind the backseat. Would like backseat to fold down flat. Frunk is a little small.

Love it, just some quality of life issues that could be fixed

A few things to hopefully add/improve. The handles staying in unlocked position unless you physically lock all doors or have it in gear is a problem. Tie it to the fob and automatically lock and unlock as you approach, don't unlock all doors at once, which could be a safety issue if someone is trying to get into your vehicle while you're getting into the driver seat. Make it an option to not have your handles pop out on unlock. Would be nice to have some sort of pet mode or camp mode. Also better integration with Apple Carplay/Android Auto for battery levels and route planning, or better interface with your UI and phone media.

Great small-ish SUV that is a great EV

We wanted a small AWD SUV that is also an EV. The IONIQ 5 is all that, and much more. Great tech features, long range, very comfortable, quiet, and fun!

We love our Ioniq 5

After years of not purchasing a vehicle, we made a decision to get a car. After searching what may be the best choice, based on wanting a newer and even newer type of vehicle, we compared several in this size. And decided this vehicle hit the boxes we needed. We are 100% happy with our choice!

Great car

Love everything about it except you should be able to have two driver settings for the front seat and when confirming what profile to use if you miss it you can’t change it while driving which I can’t understand why. My Mazda had both of these options. And lastly for security reasons when unlocking the car you should have an option of just unlocking the driver seat especially since the door handles are a dead give away when the car is unlocked. This has been an option on our most basic cars.
