Great car but ICCU reliability is a huge problem

Quiet comfortable car with great upscale features. But the fact that the ICCU can fail suddenly, and leave you stranded anywhere, is a severe limitation.

Hyundai Review

Overall positive. For me, the only negative was the inability to have the daylight dashboard. The black dashboard during the daytime is difficult to read and makes it hard to access features. Prefer my 2024 Hyundai.

Great around town car! Not for long distance.

The car is greater for city use! But as soon as you start driving on the highway over 60mph you can watch the battery lose charge. The one thing I do not like is the radio display. It does not display the name of the artist and song unless you totally open the channel screen. So if you’re using navigation on the Home Screen you can’t see the artist information. My old 2010 car could do both. Why can’t a 2025 Hyundai?

Ioniq 5 Limited: excellent car so far

I love this car. It’s such a joy to drive, has great battery life, and charging at home is such a breeze. It’s my first EV and I think I picked a great one.

Could not be happier

I transitioned to Ioniq after my eNiro lease and could not be happier. I love the head-up display, the roomy cabin and better handling with RWD

Best-in-class EV for 2026

Thoughtfully designed. Well built. Fun to drive. The battery has excellent range and charges incredibly quickly so keeping a full charge is no more of hassle than filling a gas tank was. The interior is very spacious and comfortable, with much more room than you would expect for a car of this size (another benefit of an EV, not having an engine/transmission means more passenger space). The ergonomics of the driver's position are excellent, I especially like that the dashboard has actual buttons and dials for important controls instead of running everything through the touch screen like some other cars do. The engine is responsive, it delivers power on demand and makes overtaking on the freeway easy, but it also has smooth ride and handles well. It's quiet inside too. The exterior is stylish, it doesn't look like another cookie-cutter sedan. Every little detail seems to have been cleverly and carefully thought through. And now Hyundai actually LOWERED the MSRP while still having a 100K mi warranty on the battery. Best value and best overall car in its class. I love it!

Perfect EV for most drivers.

I just traded by 2022 Ioniq 5 SEL RWD in for a 2026 Ioniq 5 Limited RWD. The 2026 Limited is very roomy. I am 6'-4". There is plenty of room to get in and out of the car and plenty of head room and seat adjustment once you are in the car. Comfort controls are extensive with steering wheel and seat heaters and cooling. The included MyHyundai app allows you to preheat or cool the car in extreme weather conditions. Pick up is more than enough for me. I found the range to be better than the rating, however, it takes time to understand how weather and driving an EV.impacts the range. The range is reduced substantially during very cold weather. It is also reduced if the trip is on expressways with few stops or brake usage to replenish the battery. My ONLY complaint is the "Keep Your Eys on the Road" safety feature which includes an infrared camera on top of the steering wheel that verifies you are actively engaged in driving the car. That goes off way too often even when your eyes are on the road and if you it doesn't verify quick enough, it disengages cruise control, which in my opinion is a safety problem.

We said we didn’t want it the next day now stuck with it for 3 years

We had an awful leasing experience and wanted the dealer to take the car back the very next morning. They really ripped us off on our lease during a time when they were leasing for $299 a month. We pay over $600 for a car that is worth half that. Hyundai has been a nightmare for us. We will never deal with you again once this lease is done. Never. We will be selling moms Genesis back too.

Our 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 5 is highly praised!

It was a "smart buy" that combines a spacious, comfortable interior with a engaging driving experience, making it a positive alternative entering the full EV segment. There's clearly more innovation to come in the next three years, so leasing was the best/smart decision.

Ioniq5 Limited - Bells & Whistles

Love my 5 Limited! It’s got all the bells and whistles plus more! I enjoy the acceleration, modern amenities such as self parking, basically self driving, driver’s seat leg rest, moon roof, right/left blind spot cameras on screen -fantastic features!

Comfortable and Modern EV, but Needs Refinement

I currently drive both the IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 9, and overall they are great electric vehicles. However, the semi-autonomous driving feels unstable on slight curves, which could be improved. Also, the front light cover material scratches too easily. Despite these issues, I am generally satisfied with the IONIQ lineup

Proud Ioniq 5 Owner

Look around a lot and finally settled on the Ioniq 5. Sure was nice to make the deal in my city (Cathedral City). Pleasant leasing experience. We've dropped in to the dealer for a few technology assistance questions and each person was pleasant and willing to help. Found the entire of the car to be much bigger than expected. Gets great mileage and looks sharp.

Ioniq 5 - Very nice, but needs further refinement

Glad I got it, and I like it a lot. However, it has several annoying issues. Overall, I can put up with them because of how good the rest of the car is.
