IONIQ 5 - IS IT REALLY THAT GOOD?

EV Channels Review

The EV-Man reviewer finds the Hyundai IONIQ 5 to be a compelling package, even preferring its styling to the Kia EV6. The car's unique, timeless design, both inside and out, garners significant attention. Practicality is a strong suit, with ample interior space, a versatile sliding rear bench, and a cavernous boot when seats are folded. The reviewer highlights the innovative 'frunk' glove box and the useful vehicle-to-load (V2L) capability as standout features. While the interior materials are generally good, they are noted as being slightly less premium than the EV6 in some areas. Performance from the all-wheel-drive version is described as more than adequate, though the reviewer suggests the rear-wheel-drive might suffice for many. Efficiency is considered average, not reaching the heights of some competitors like the Ioniq. Charging speed, however, is praised as excellent, comparable to Tesla Supercharger levels. The reviewer concludes that the IONIQ 5 is a strong contender, even surpassing the Model Y for them, and places it high on their list of preferred EVs.
