Performance
Thenew Ioniq 5 is powered by two battery options there's a 58-kWh battery and a new 84. kWh battery. In the standard range, the battery is paired with a single, rear-mounted electric motor and generates 168 horsepower. Meanwhile, the longer-range battery, with the rear-drive configuration, generates 225 horsepower. Though with all-wheel drive, the Inoiq 5 can produce 320 hp.
Charging & Range
According to the EPA, Ioniq 5 models that have the standard 58.0-kWh battery pack will generate about 220 miles of range. The new 84.0-kWh pack is said to get around 325 miles with a single-motor rear-wheel drive powertrain. Though these numbers aren't final.
As for charging the Ioniq 5, Hyundai says that the new battery can go from 10 to 80 percent in less than 20 minutes when plugged into a DC fast charger. As for charging at home, no word has come out about those numbers.
Design
The new updated Ioniq 5 may have received some changes, but it still looks as futuristic as it ever was. All the new tweaks just make it look even more unique. As for the interior, this too is futuristic, especially with its head-up display with augmented reality that can project navigation directions.
It that wasn't enough, the new Ioniq 5 also has an increased cargo and passenger space thanks to its completely flat floor. Because of this, Hyundai has given the front seats a reclining function with footrests for ultimate relaxation.
Additionally, the cargo space now holds around six bags when the rear seats are upright and around 20 bags when the seats are folded.
Technology
