Punches above its weight
The amount of amenities offered, especially on the limited trim, far exceed what is offered by actual luxury brands. Let me list just a few: full color HUD, glass roof, driver recliner feature with leg support, heated seats front and back (cooling too for the front seats), cool 360 camera views, remote parking (while outside of the car), exceptionally quiet cabin. This on top of the fact that the Ioniq 5 charges at well over 200 kW. As a former owner of a Ford f150 Lightning, the time saved on road trips (300+ mile trips monthly) was shocking. The ride is comfortable and quiet, setting the volume for music no higher than 10 was as high as I would go as there was no other noise to overcome. The overall design brings me back to my love for hatchbacks and the ease of moving this amount of sheetmetal makes for a more relaxing drive rather than the beast that was the F150 Lightning. If I do have one complaint is the lack of a deep frunk. The F150 Lightning has storage for days (expected as a full size pickup), but the frunk was so useful that it was a daily feature. I really wish I had a powered deep frunk that is easy to access and can store more than my charging cables. Other than the need to have a trailer hitch standard, this is by far the most bang for the buck you can get in the current EV market.
