Average car for a median price

Great $0 down option for those looking to go electric. Compared to Tesla, the features dont even come close... the infotainment system and vehicle controls need a lot of work.

Love this car. Couple of issues that I don’t like

Love this car. It’s quite comfortable nice power even with the rwd only. Fit and finish is great with the exception of the rear passenger door sometimes rubbing into the front door but only in the extreme heat. Other than that electric is the way to go. Ioniq all the way

A Joy to Drive

I’m very happy with my 2026 Ionic5. It has been a learning curve since it is my first EV model, but well worth the effort. The seats are exceptionally comfortable with lots of adjustments and I particularly like the feature which supports my lower legs. It’s easy to enter and exit the vehicle. It’s very responsive and fun to drive. The visibility front and back windows is exceptional.

Ioniq 5

Purchased this vehicle May 2026. Dealership was great to work with. So far we really like this car.

Initial evaluation with 2 months of experience.

I absolutely love this car however.... On my first road trip I was not able to get the charge cable released from the port. I purchase extra for roadside assist and they were not able to help. I pulled on the manual release from within the car and this did not work. I was told to pull it harder and it broke off. There should ABSOLUTELY be no situation where you cannot unplug your charge cable. I was 105 degrees outside and I went in circles for support help. There has to be a simpler way to release a charge connector.

Best vehicle I've ever owned

My Ionic 5 is smooth, responsive, quiet, and clean. There are so many features which are all very helpful and first rate! I had to study hard to understand them all - and after 4 months I'm still learning. But my favorite part of the vehicle is simply driving it. It responds extremely well. I feel safe and well informed of conditions while driving. My favorite feature is the idrive. I love not using the brake (a joke between me and my husband) but true.

Love it, just and inch away from perfection

I have never loved a vehicle more and I was highly resistent to getting it at first. 0-60mph is so fin. Tech is leading and exceeds safety expectation. Elegance ultra comfortable seating. Turning radius is tiigghhhhtt!!! Must go for the top model though.

Focus on Features Equity

The Ioniq 5 has exceptional camera hardware, but locking it behind a closed system forces owners to buy redundant third-party dashcams. Hyundai should enable native local video recording, or better yet, release an open-source API for camera access. Giving the developer community permissionless access to read local video feeds would make Hyundai the gold standard for software transparency and user ownership in the EV space. I have bluelink and also the SEL build and I would pay extra to get some sort of subscription service if it is worth it. Hyundai product managers please take this feedback. Thanks!

Comfortable quiet, fun to drive, -holding breath about the ICCU

There's a lot of function as well as form in this car. The limited edition allows the receipts to move back-and-forth, to adjust the amount of truck versus rear seat room one has. There's so much seat legroom that that works. Acceleration is great fun. Breaking seems good. I'm getting more miles per kilometer on this one in my 2023 EB six -can't explain that. Having the NACS charger makes things more convenient and reduces anxiety. Seats are comfortable.

Great car with a few lemon details

We've driven this car a lot since we got it earlier this year. The interior gets dirty really easily (we have the white) and the exterior paint isn't great but it charges quickly, has decent range, and is comfortable to ride in. It is fairly small but works great for our family of 3. Overall we like it quite a bit and would recommend it to others.

Sparky

Let me start by saying that I am happy and elated with my 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 5 Limited. My first Hyundai was a 2020 IONIQ Hybrid and I loved that car. It gave me great gas mileage and that's when I knew that eventually I was gonna make the transition to EV. In 2022 it's when Hyundai came out with the IONIQ 5 and lived the way it looked. I decided to wait and im glad I did and in May of 2026 I made the decision to purchase my 2026 IONIQ 5 Limited. I am very happy with my decision and the car. I love how it rides, how it handles, the seats are very comfortable, and no more gas!

First electric car issues

I like the Ionic5 comfort and handling. Not liking the electric issues thus far. 2,500 miles in and the car has decided not to turn off 3 times. From the Google search, looks like a common issue. This time, the car won't turn off, all of the warning lights go on, none of the accessories work (key fob, A/C, radio, navigation.). Drove straight to the dealer and learned their diagnostic technicians leave at 3 and that diagnostic appointments are 3 weeks out. But the service rep did me a favor to try and squeeze me in. Your timing for this survey is therefore terrible since you asked for feedback the same day I'm having these issues. I left the car at the dealership, found an UBER home (mno loaners or rentals), and to be continued, maybe tomorrow.

I LOVE my 2026 Ioniq 5 LTD!

My new Ioniq 5 is an incredible vehicle! It practically drives itself, its extremely comfortable and I feel safe in it. When I'm in town, it charges easily enough from my clothes dryer outlet.

A quality EV. Easy to drive, big enough for carrying the dogs

The Ioniq 5 is a good sized EV. Not too big nor too small. Comfortable for a 6'1" big guy. Range is impressive and longer than what was advertised. I wish the Frunk was bigger and don't understand why it is not on the RWD version.

Great car for first time EV owners

I loved my 2026 Ioniq 5 limited. What i love most of it are: the NACS charging (being able to charge at a Tesla supercharger), how quickly it charges (1-hour for 10% charge at level 2 at home; about 12min. from 50-80% at Tesla Supercharger), how it cools down so fast and dont have to worry about gas, just charging, the infotainment system is amazing as it is easy to use, how I can plug a flash drive with mp3 and listen to my own music list, etc....
