What I wanted, and then some

I’ve been looking into EV‘s and considering several different models from different brands. What ultimately brought me to Hyundai is the price, 0% promotion, and the warranty coverage. I watched every video I could find for several months, and tried to convince myself not to buy a Hyundai. Surely someone has a bad experience? I couldn’t find one. So, I relented, and I’m so glad I did. Other than a few quirks common with any mass produced vehicle straight off the line, it has been a dream. And it has been running fantastic ever since. I’ve already been tricking it out and customizing it to make it my own. I can’t wait to go camping with it!

Hoppy

Hard to see icons for fan speed, etc. Too faint. Back window has that overhang that keeps the carwash from being able to clean all the glass . Rear wiper blade small. Seats hard to slide in on. I am overall pleased with the car. You asked for my opinion and gave you some of my observations so far. Thanks for asking. Hope it helps for future design.

New battery after 1500 miles

The check vehicle electric system warning appeared around 1500 miles on new 2026 Ioniq 5. It needs a whole new battery. The back order on one is months possibly. I’m being given a loaner, but will have to pay for gas at almost $6 a gallon for months while I wait for my new EV to have the failed battery replaced. I think I should be given another new Ioniq 5 and not keep this lemon.

Near perfection

Decently good value for the money. Has a few flaws but still better and easier to drive than competitors in the same space.

Absolutely Love My IONIQ 5!

★★★★★ **Absolutely Love My IONIQ 5!** I absolutely love my Hyundai IONIQ 5 Limited! From the design to the technology and overall driving experience, this car has exceeded my expectations. The ride is incredibly smooth, quiet, and comfortable, with plenty of power when you need it. The interior is spacious, modern, and thoughtfully designed. I especially love the panoramic glass roof, ventilated and heated seats, head-up display, blind-spot camera views, 360-degree surround-view cameras, and all the driver-assistance features. Highway Driving Assist makes longer drives so much more enjoyable, and the regenerative braking and i-Pedal driving are fantastic once you get used to them. The remote parking features are also a really cool bonus! The technology throughout the vehicle is impressive, and I appreciate how much customization is available. It's genuinely a pleasure to drive, whether I'm running errands around town or heading out on a longer trip. **My biggest area for improvement is the Bluelink app.** While I love having the ability to remotely lock and unlock the doors, start the climate control, and check the vehicle's status, these commands can be frustratingly slow to execute. I'd love to see Hyundai improve the responsiveness and make the experience feel more instantaneous. I'd also really love to see Hyundai expand its camera and security capabilities. Coming from the Tesla ecosystem, I miss having the ability to view the vehicle's cameras live from my phone, use a built-in dashcam to record while driving, and have something similar to Tesla's Sentry Mode that monitors and records activity around the vehicle while parked. With all the cameras and technology already integrated into the IONIQ 5, these would be fantastic additions. Those are really my only complaints, and they're more of a wish list for future software improvements than anything else. **Overall, it's an easy 5 stars from me!** Hyundai has created an incredible EV that combines comfort, performance, technology, and beautiful design. I genuinely look forward to driving it every day, and with a few improvements to the connected features and security technology, it would be even closer to perfect!

My 2026 Ioniq 5

Stylish mid-sized EV, good range, fairly quick, comfortable but somewhat cheap-looking interior. Cons include very intrusive driver aids, especially the distance alarms. Auto headlights are way too sensitive and I have to keep them off most of the time. Lack of forward-facing camera.
