The 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 springs out of the gate with retro-themed styling and the latest in electric vehicle design. It's also comfortable, practical and generously equipped. While it can't quite match the range of the equivalent Tesla Model Y or Ford Mustang Mach-E models, there's still plenty to love about this all-new all-electric SUV.
You might be familiar with the Hyundai Ioniq, a small Prius-like hatchback that comes in hybrid, plug-in hybrid and EV variants. But now Hyundai is using the Ioniq name as a springboard for several electric vehicles. The first of these is the all-electric 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5, a small crossover SUV that goes big on style and technology.

The Ioniq 5 comes with one of two battery packs: a 58-kWh pack (delayed availability) or a 77.4-kWh pack. The smaller battery pack will serve as the base model for the Ioniq 5 range, and it comes with one electric motor that drives the rear wheels. Ioniq 5 models with the larger battery come with either rear-wheel drive or an additional motor up front that gives the vehicle all-wheel drive.
We subjected an AWD Ioniq 5 to our real-world range test and managed to go 277 miles on a full charge. That's a little underwhelming compared to some other rival EVs we tested (a comparable Ford Mustang Mach-E went 304 miles, for instance) but it should still be plenty for most EV owners.
On the upside, the Ioniq 5's electrical architecture is compatible with the latest high-powered DC fast-charging stations. Connecting to a 350-kW charger, for instance, would allow you to recharge your Ioniq 5 from 10% battery charge to 80% in just 18 minutes, Hyundai says. The Ioniq 5 also offers a cool feature that allows you to power electronics, tools and other gear with the car's battery pack.
Hyundai rounds this all out with eye-catching exterior styling, big digital infotainment displays, and plenty of standard and available features. Check the categories of our test team's Expert Rating to learn more on why this is one of the best EVs you can buy for 2022.
Edmunds Expert Rating

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Nick Yekikian
Great
8.3
out of 10
We drove the 2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.
Performance
8.5/10
How does the IONIQ 5 drive? The Ioniq 5 is an easy EV to get acquainted with and makes a great daily driver. With the dual electric-motor setup, which is what we tested, the Ioniq 5 provides excellent traction and smooth and responsive acceleration. In our testing, this AWD Ioniq 5 sprinted from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.7 seconds, slightly edging out the Tesla Model Y Long Range (4.8 seconds in our testing). It was also well ahead of a comparable Ford Mustang Mach-E model.
Around-town driving is smooth and easy. The amount of regenerative braking — this is where an EV slows down after you let off the accelerator and helps recharge the battery pack — is adjustable, so you can dial in the amount you prefer. The switch to the regular friction brakes is also so smooth that you'll likely never notice. Another pleasant surprise is the Ioniq 5's handling. You can hustle this EV around turns and actually have some fun doing it.
Comfort
8.5/10
How comfortable is the IONIQ 5? The Ioniq 5 has a supple ride over bumps and ruts in the road. Even the largest imperfections in the road surface don't cause undue jostling or vibrations in the cabin. It's easily one of the most well-composed cars in its class.
The front seats are soft and supportive. One of our drivers put in about eight hours of driving and had no complaints. The climate control system works well, and it's easy to keep things nice and comfortable inside the cabin. Plus, the lack of excess noise in the Ioniq 5 means the whirring of the fans is what you'll hear most. Road and tire noise is well hushed, and wind noise only gets noticeable at high speeds.
Interior
8/10
How’s the interior? The interior of the Ioniq 5 is far more conventional-looking than the car's exterior. If you're looking to be wowed by something "from the future!" the Ioniq 5 isn't it. Its dual-screen layout is straightforward in appearance and in operation. It's easy to get the hang of and presents no special EV learning curve.
The rest of the interior is just as straightforward. There's plenty of space in both rows for adults. The backrest of the rear seats reclines, which allows rear passengers to lounge around and chill out in near silence as they're ferried along. The only downside is visibility. The view out of the front is vast, but the thick rear roof pillars create relatively large blind spots. Getting the available surround-view camera system can help out.
Technology
8/10
How’s the tech? The Ioniq 5 comes well stocked with technology features. Most of them are standard, and the available Highway Driving Assist 2 feature is Hyundai's latest combo of enhanced adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist. The aids work well enough to help reduce driving fatigue and avoid possible collisions, but they don't operate without flaw in all scenarios.
The Ioniq 5 also comes with Hyundai's Bluelink app, which allows owners to control a number of the car's functions. You can turn on the heater or air conditioning before driving, set charge time limits, and see charging stations from the app. There is also the usual Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, and the whole infotainment system is zippy and relatively easy to get the hang of by way of the big 12.3-inch touchscreen.
Storage
7.5/10
How’s the storage? The Ioniq 5 is not the king of overall storage space. The rear hatch only offers up 27.2 cubic feet of storage space behind the second row. That's less than what you get from a Mach-E or Tesla Model Y. Those models also offer far more usable front trunks too. The one in the Ioniq 5 is barely large enough to store the charging cable the car comes with. At least the rear seats fold flat, which is convenient for loading longer items.
The cabin is full of cubbies and places to stow bottles, wallets and phones. And the movable center console is pretty cool even if it's of questionable use. Got small children who need safety seats? We found the car seat anchors to be pretty accessible, and the rear seat recline-and-slide function makes for easy access to the top tether points. The expansive rear legroom ensures that there shouldn't be too much compromise to front seat comfort if you're installing a rear-facing safety seat.
Range and Efficiency
7.5/10
How are the range and efficiency? According to the EPA, the Ioniq 5 with AWD (which is what we tested) will do 256 miles on a single charge consuming 34 kilowatt-hours of energy per 100 miles. That's not bad, but it's also not as much range as its closest competition offers. In Edmunds' real-world range test, this dual-motor Ioniq 5 was able to travel 270 miles on a single charge. It also consumed less energy doing so, using 30.9 kWh/100 miles after recharging back to a full battery post testing.
For reference, it fell short of both the Model Y and Mustang Mach-E, which both eclipsed the 300-mile mark. It was, however, more efficient than the Mach-E, while the Model Y's efficiency can't be topped in the class.
Recharging can be done at home or at public charging stations. Notably, the Ioniq 5 is compatible with the latest high-powered DC fast-charging stations. Previously, only high-end EVs such as the Porsche Taycan had such compatibility. Just know that these powerful 350-kW chargers are still pretty rare — most DC fast-charging stations you'll come across are capable of providing 50 kW to 125 kW. Even so, you can kind of consider the Ioniq 5 to be future-proofed to take advantage of more powerful fast charging as it rolls out in the coming years.
Value
9/10
Is the IONIQ 5 a good value? The Ioniq 5 we tested was a fully loaded Limited trim that rang in at more than $55,000. But there are less expensive Ioniq 5 models, and you definitely get what you pay for. Hyundai's build quality is outstanding in the Ioniq 5. There were no errant creaks or rattles in our test car. Factor in Hyundai's excellent warranty and the Ioniq 5 becomes an excellent value for the money, especially if you skip the second motor and go for the rear-drive version with more than 300 miles of range.
Wildcard
8.5/10
The Ioniq 5 brings a little something special to the table. It is more fun to drive than the EVs in its class (and most non-EV SUV equivalents as well) and features styling that has a distinctive 1980s hatchback retro vibe to it. It's not some flashy exotic, but it does have a little X-factor we don't think other automakers are going to try to replicate anytime soon.

Certified Used IONIQ 5
Choose the trim, color, options, packages and more for your Hyundai
The 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 is a small electric crossover SUV sold in four trims: SE Standard Range (late availability), SE, SEL and Limited. All except the SE Standard Range can be had in rear- or all-wheel drive. Compare the 2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 trim levels in-depth.
Which IONIQ 5 trim does Edmunds recommend?
Our preferred spec is the SEL, which adds a lot of features for not much more money over the SE. The dual-motor setup is an expensive upgrade and reduces estimated range, but it's worth getting if you enjoy rocket-like acceleration.
According to GeoTab’s data, if the observed degradation rates are maintained, the vast majority of batteries will outlast the usable life of the vehicle.
Estimated battery warranty remaining is 6 years or 44,000 miles for this car.

2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 Limited 4dr SUV AWD (electric DD)
So coming out of a Hyundai Nexo fuel cell electric SUV. Loved the Nexo. Really hit almost every mark for me. Might actually get another when the 2023's come out . So why an Ioniq 5? Well besides the nearly unanimous high praise and great reviews, I liked what I saw and learned about it. Zero buyers remorse on this car. Pretty much favorite lifetime car .
Driving for almost a … month now and Hyundai really went all out on this vehicle. They have a lot riding on it and really did pull off a true winner. Crossover height so lower than a SUV (like the Nexo) but higher than a sedan. Some might call it perfect in that regard. Looks most everyone seems to love including me. It's different in a good way. But this car has high end features and design elements inside and out. They really went all the way on this car and yes the Genesis electric model coming out soon will certainly have more luxury features and plushness but a very different and more conventional design. And that does not mean this car does not have plushness. It feels very high end inside and out. Small details abound and fit and finish is superb.
It rides beautifully! Quietest car I have ever been in. I have a limited with 20" big wide Michelin Primacy tires. I was worried that normally 20" tires ride rougher. Not here. The suspension soaks up the nasty Los Angeles roads and freeways like soft butter yet still a responsive and perfect ride feel balance for handling. With muted sound and ZERO wind noise or rattles anywhere. Better than the Nexo. Finish quality is superb. Doors close and need an extra pressure because they thud with the most knowing sound of a great "seal".
Power. Way more than enough and if want to compare numbers you should just stop. If you want a race car buy one. This car can out jump and blow by just about anyone if that's your thing. Not mine, but once in a while jumping away to change lanes or getting out of the way from a dumb driver who does something stupid is awesome and a great safety feature in my book. And it's fun!
Inside comfort and seats are excellent. Not to soft and not to firm. Side bolsters for my 215 pound 6'2 frame are perfect. Some cars are to extreme pushing on my sides. These are great. Legroom is excellent as is seating position adujustments. Visibility excellent the camera quality and HD display quality is as good as it gets. My wife commented on how "nice" and simply classy with a sense of style the interior is. Color accented details of stitching on seats and trim she noticed and likes. Me too. It all really works and shows a massive amount of attention to detail.
The tech in the car may be overwhelming for some, but for me it is all very welcome. Most all of the defaults are where I want them with the tech on, but you can turn things off and even customize everything for two different drivers. Brilliant. The tech really works fantastic and the abundance of safety features has you covered like no other. If you get in an accident in this car no way it should be your fault with all the alerts and auto steer and braking avoidance happening for so many types of incidents.
The Highway driving assist 2 works quite well and also has customization. Yes the car can ping pong a bit on certain roads depending on things but it works and feels safe. And yes you need to at least lightly keep your hands on the wheel or it will start binging at you. Also love the slightly squared off bottom of the steering wheel. Gives you a little better "slide in " room and really feels great and comfortable in hand. No issues.
Controls buttons are mostly all haptic but work well and the system is blazingly fast at everything it does with no delays, even the start up is really fast. Also extra buttons are customizable for many different uses.
I-pedal driving mode is true one pedal and perfectly calibrated. Both at stops and in starts. Pedal feel is perfect (to me) both for acceleration and braking. 4 different Regen modes all not only adjustable but finally, it remembers and keeps your last setting. The nexo would not do this and I complained about it so maybe Hyundai listened. Only the I-pedal mode does not default and it should. You start in level 3 regen and then have to pull the paddle once for i-pedal. Hyundai, please also make i-pedal a default memory option if that is what the driver wants. And auto hold parking is also now on memory so if you turn it on it stays on all the time. Excellent !
Audio system is Bose and better than the last Bose one I had but not as good as the audio system in the Nexo. Why not? For the top of the line Ioniq 5 they should have put in the better audio system. It does have a lot of adjustments and you will need to adjust and increase trebble , mids and lows to get better sound.
Charging and it's many many option settings are all great. interface with the Hyundai BlueLink app on the phone also works great. Hope they add more features to it .
Yes there are a few things that you may think should be changed but certainly no deal breakers.
Most people complain about no rear windshield wiper. Here the thing. The angle on the rear window is really no different then many sedans that don't have wipers. Yes a wiper would be nice and particularly if you are used to looking out your rear view mirror a lot and live in a rainy/snowy or wintery area. RainX does for sure help the water bead away but again, no different than a sedan. I'm sure with all the outcry they will update next years model with either a digital camera rear view mirror or a wiper.
Lower door sills seem to stick out more than other cars. This car is "wide" so when you get out or in, your leg will rub the door sill unless you swing out wide. I'm getting used to it after a while and not a problem. But if your car is dirty and you brush up on it all the time you may get some dirt on your pants.
Turning on the seat heaters and ventilation is only on the touch display. It says there is an "auto" option to turn them on but I can't get it to work. They really should let you set a default temp and assign the on/off to one of the three blank user selectable option buttons either on the steering wheel or control console.
Climate control works well but so far I have not gotten the auto mode to kick in to high fan speed when the car is hot inside. You have to do it manually from the haptic button on the console. And yes I do have the system set to normal and not eco, so it should go to higher speed when in auto mode if the car is hot. My Nexo did this.
Charger port door does not open when you touch it. It is supposed to so guessing it is broken but that is the only thing that seems broken so far on the car. ( voice control and key fob do open it so you have options).
Nav system is the "regular" one for Hyundai. My Nexo used the premium Nav software which is considerably better. Please upgrade the Nav software!!
Fast charging is for real and is a game changer for anxiety. I have superfast 350kwh chargers near me that so far seem open. Free 30 minute charges is great as that basically fills you up. Range is as advertised or greater which is nice.
Space in the car is amazing. It feels open and with seats folded I have actually more room than my Nexo.
Can you tell I like it??
Congrats and Thank you Hyundai!
Gave up a Porsche Cayenne turbo - no regrets!

2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 Limited 4dr SUV AWD (electric DD)
Loved the Cayenne but started feeling guilty about the amount of premium gas I was burning. So bought an Ionic 5 Limited. It’s a wonderful car. Quiet, smooth on bumpy streets, plenty of acceleration (especially in sport mode). Lots of interior room (more than one would expect from the exterior view). Excellent build quality. Love the high speed charging that’s included free for two … years. Before buying it, I looked at the Teslas. But was won over by the better price/value, the smoother ride, and the faster (20 minute) charging on the Ionic 5 at 800 V. (Teslas are 400 V). Hyundai may not have the prestige but they’ve got the technology and they build them right. Only negative I can think of is the audio system is a little weak. Overall, highly recommended.

2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 SEL 4dr SUV (electric DD)
Replaced a 2020 Ford Explorer with a 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 SEL RWD. Was nervous about size but fits golf clubs width-wise easily and even a wheel chair was no problem with back seats up. Split seats make the storage truly flexible and with both down it was as much space as I'd ever need. Long trips with a family of 4 might require using the roof rack for more than 4-5 large carry-type … bags. Passenger space is surprisingly excellent. Back floor is totally flat which helps. Driver position is very comfortable; seats are sport-like and breath really well considering my trim does not have ventilation (I have a Model 3 which is awful for this). The car truly drives well and the acceleration is surprisingly swift, even at high speed, even without the AWD add on. A very comfortable car to drive that feels uncramped, yet can feel sporty if you hit it hard. I personally love the styling and in just one day feel as if I'm under a microscope as everyone stares at the car. Currently in CA where I live there are outrageous markups on every car imaginable, this car being no exception. If not for a trade in that enjoyed the same overvaluation, it would be tough to swallow but I feel as if the value even at the price I paid is truly excellent, especially given that I'm going from a car that gets an average of 16 MPG to not paying for gas.
Wow!

2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 Limited 4dr SUV AWD (electric DD)
This is our first electric vehicle and what a great surprise. I ordered it without test driving it first - which was strange but decided to take the risk and it was well worth it. As with everything there are pros and cons and these are my main take-aways after driving it for almost 2 weeks.
Pros:
-The driving comfort is just superb. The suspension is the best that I have been in by far. … You, do not, feel, the bumps. Period.
-The seats were also the best I have encountered (I drove it in the highway for more than 13 hours).
-You can customize almost any setting to your preference: from the interior light color, to the safety features. And technology feels balanced with practicality
-The combination of power, breaking (or, removing your foot off the accelerator, I should say) and the quite interior, are better than I ever expected.
-The interior feels (and is) bigger than it seems from outside with good quality materials in general.
Cons:
-Driving at high constant speeds (aka, the highway) will lower your mileage range per charge
-Driving in cold temperatures (and I mean driving in the 40s or below) will also lower the range
-The combination of the two above, are almost lethal to the battery. I was getting more like 150 miles per battery charge driving in the highway with temps between 37 - 45 F and average speed of 80 miles/hr. when the best range is 260 miles or so for the AWD models.
-We have three little kids and while they fit in the back seat, it is very tight to fit three car seats, booster seats, or the combination of the two.
-For some reason, the car did not come with floor mats, including for the back/truck area. I called the local Hyundai dealer to see if I can buy some and they said that they may be in stock three months from now. Is it only me or it is strange that mats are not sold at the same time as the car, or with the car?
-Visibility to the exterior is important to me when backing up and the visibility is not terrible but not good, however, there is a bird's eye camera view you can see on the screen in the dashboard that shows with detail the surroundings and your proximity that easily makes-up for the poorer visibility (this view comes in automatically when you shift to reverse)
Overall I think this vehicle is amazing and depending on your specific needs and situation, it could very well be the ideal vehicle.
