Disappointing details

I had the ioniq 6 before the ioniq 5, and I think the 6 is a much better car than the 5. Being tall 6 feet and 3, i was much more comfortable driving in the 6 because the control panel with start/stop button, AC control etc was higher and far from my knee, while in the 5 i have very little room because my knee has to go between the corner of the control panel and that of the separator in between the front seats; considering also that the arm rest on the right i higher too, the only possible solution i could find was to push back the arm rest completely. Another little thing, I found very useful on the 6 the button that closes the trunk and locks the car, and it’s annoying that there is not in the new 5. Another annoying thing is that the back seats, after they were taken down to increase the space in the trunk, stop their run to back up way too early, when they are still not completely open. Of course one can fix it further, but why should that be the case? In the 6 they go back all the way. Finally, in the 6 the plug allowed to use multiple plugs without having to plug the converter, while now i have to plug a converter too. Since there’s no tesla chargers were i live or where i work, it’s pretty annoying. The only plus the 5 has over the 6 is the battery and the price.

Best car I've ever driven, and I've driven many.

Fun, quiet and well put together. The brakes, especially in reverse, are a bit sticky. The cruise control is overly complicated and the climate control is close to the volume nob and if you barely brush against it it turns on. Plus the climate system itself is hard to read, so I usually pull over to adjust. All said though I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Glad I made the switch to an EV

I have been thinking about going to an EV for a few years now. After my son and my brother both bought an EV, I decided to pull the trigger and I'm glad I did! It is quiet, nicely appointed on the inside, efficient, and I don't ever have to pump gas again!

Happy with car

The car is well designed and very happy with it. I really hope they have finally got a handle on the ICCU issues that have tarnished such a great car otherwise.

Ioniq 5 Limited

Love this car, but it has a horrible turning radius and uncomfortable driver's seat for a short person.

Great car with 1 major issue

Awesome car except for the ongoing problem of dependability with ICCU unit . This problem should have been resolved by now . It's know weak point for over 3 years & Hyundai can't seem to figure out how get it fixed . Does Hyundai really care about it customers ? Hard to say based on how they care . Hyundai is not very transparant & willing share why the ICCU part is still failing at a high rate , basically 10 to 15 % of the Ioniq 5 cars sold per year will have the ICCU fail & leave you stranded . Feel like you're driving a car that can stop working at any moment. Also, to make things worse the ICCU part is rarely in stock at your dealer , so you end waiting 4 to 8 weeks to get it replaced. Hyundai's inabilty to resolve this documented & know flaw doesn't inspire trust or confidence in build quality when you're looking to purchase a EV

I had a 2023 Ioniq 5, The 2026 is a more refined version.

A good solid EV that provides a decent value.

Awesome EV

I’ll never go back to an internal combustion engine vehicle. The car is so quiet and comfortable. I traded in a BMW 530i because of the excessive cost of repairs. This car drives as well.

Very happy with my new Ioniq 5. The door locks are great, the range and acceleration are outstanding and it is super comfortable. The price with the discount made it very attractive.

The Ioniq 5 is a winner

When we went to Hyundai to look at a car we couldn’t have imagined that the Ioniq5 XRT would be our next car. After our test drive we were impressed with the ride quality and how quiet the car is and the power was very impressive as well. We’ve had our Ioniq 5 for almost 3 months and are very happy with it. The tech is first class and the build quality seems very good I do have to say there is a learning curve when driving it it’s much easier to speed if your not paying attention to the odometer. The charging is easy and the speed at a super charger is nice. We really wonder why we didn’t go electric sooner. Thank you Hyundai for an awesome car.

Just a few things make this not to be a perfect vehicle

The car is great, except for not automatically locking when you walk away, the delay in the profile screen coming up/connecting, and the car unlocking every time you walk past the car. Also, no wiring harness is available for towing.

Wonderful except for...

Great car. Great range. Comfortable, reliable. The only issue is the obtuse setup menus. Apple p[lay disappears when a short blue tooth interruption occurs. Can't restart it while driving without taking eyes off the road. Car should restart with last settings for everything, when it was turned off. Why does my wife's keys do not open doors when approaching, my keys don't unlock all doors?. Simple things like that are annoying, especially on a great car.
