2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 Consumer Reviews
Pricing
Don't buy electric without considering...
Loved the car at first, but then realized that it really is only for in town drives. The 320 mile range drops to 175 or less once on the highway and driving 75 mph or more. Non-tesla charging stations are rare and typically require waiting at least 1-2 hours for a charging spot. The real killer was that after 15K miles, the car stopped charging. These aren't cars, they are computers with wheels. So now I own a $50K brick. It has been in the shop for 27 days straight without a fix! Don't buy.
Get a jumper battery pack! Otherwise it’s a great
Love the vehicle. But lease, don’t buy. 10 days in (770 miles on odometer), the vehicle was charging on Level 1, 50% charge and Error Warning! Vehicle bricked: nothing electronic worked. Called Hyundai Road assistance. Jumped the dead 12 volt battery. Hyundai dealer ran 48 hours of tests and got no error messages. Carry a jumper pack. The full driver’s assistance package is greatly appreciated: 1-pedal driving, digital rear view mirror, blind spot cameras, pedestrian warnings, lane keeping, etc. great tech. Lot of fun on sport mode, but more comfortable in Eco mode. Spouse is very happy to drive in Eco. Sport mode challenges her. Traction / handling in heavy weather has been great. Looking forward to the mountain passes in Snow mode with tire socks, and without ;-). Sound system is great. Best trip usage to date 3 m/kw Level 3 charging: I’ve rarely gotten better than Avg 88 kw at Electrify America stations. Cons: 1) above 12 volt battery issue 2) Rear camera for digital mirror is useless in heavy rain 3) Charging port lighting sucks: charging bars blindingly bright and obscure actual connection port. Appears to be corrected in 2025 Ioniq 6, don’t know about 5. 4) Parked with one wheel on a parking “bump” slightly torquing vehicle. Tail gate would not open. Checked body panel clearances and they where definitely interfering. Moved vehicle to flat: no problem. Suggesting a lack of body frame rigidity?

Great Car After One Year
I’ve driven this car for a year now and am still very happy. Great performance, smooth/quiet ride, roomy with great looks. If I could get Hyundai to improve a few things, they would be: UI for onboard software could be more pleasing and intuitive, add a rear wiper, and wireless phone charging cradle should be next to CarPlay port and able to adapt to phone cases. Although there’s been much talk about the ICCU issues, I have not experienced those.

It’s Fast, It’s Comfortable, It’s an IONIQ!
2024 Ioniq 5 Limited AWD: Pros: Fast, Comfortable, Very spacious, Lots of Tech inside, Super Fast Charging, Panoramic Sunroof (has a cover unlike Tesla), Rear Seats Recline, Bose Stereo System. Cons: Range (only 260miles), No wireless Apple CarPlay, No UWB/NFC Digital Key for iPhone, Hyundai opted for USB A ports instead of USB C (not sure why), Ambient Lighting is okay not great. Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase and I would definitely recommend the Ioniq 5 to friends and family!

Just oooo!
This car has umph and more umph. I am enjoying my commute more than I thought I ever could. The cabin is extraordinarily spacious and comfortable. In "sports" mode, this car handles as well as my 1991 Miata of days gone by. The features are too numerous to begin to list, but the cooling seats are absolutely magical. My hubby and I sat in the back seat for about an hour just chatting and star gazing. The longer I have it and the more I drive my Ioniq 5 limited, the more I enjoy it.
