It has a nice combination of many different materials but the seats for example are made of leather, which feels really comfy. Oh and the rattle is a well known annoying problem. Its caused by the seatbelts in the back. if you put them away facing upwards instead of downwords this should go away. And thanks for this nice video :)

Two more things, assuming it's like every other newer hyundai the steering wheel, that lever in the middle of the steering wheel media controls, controls both the volume/muting/pausing on the left side of the lever and skipping/reversing songs on the right side of the lever. Also, if you leave a gas Hyundai idling in park, it'll turn off after 30 mins automatically. I imagine the Ioniq 5 is the same.

So the start/Stop button thing.. I think your gripes are firmly rooted in how trained you've become in the Tesla way of doing things. Hyundai clearly designed the function of this button to be familiar and intuitive for anyone who is new to the EV world. Any non-EV car with a start button will act exactly the same as what you showed: One press to turn on radio function only, 2 presses to turn on auxiliary devices (windows, A/C, etc..) and Foot on brake + press to 'start engine' (or in this case, make car drivable). Personally, I kinda like the idea that I can manually control what 'mode' my car is in.. I know when it's on, and I know when it's off. And it's not that difficult to remember to shut down the car when you park. Us non-Tesla drivers are in the habit of always doing that anyway.

Great review. As someone who previously drove a Model Y and now drives an Ioniq 5 Limited (top trim AWD), a few things that you missed. Most importantly, the interior quality of the Limited edition is far higher quality, not just than the SE trim, but also than the Tesla. It feels much more expensive and luxurious than the Model Y. In addition, it has a heads up display, that is extremely useful, and a host of other features that are significantly nicer than the Model Y and Model 3. Most of all, it’s simply far more comfortable and quiet over bumpy roads, and in AWD Limited trim, is almost as quick as the Y LR, with 0-60 in 4.6s. Finally, things like the glass panoramic roof having and actual way to close it completely make a significant difference in terms of the heat getting into the car.

@@t1328 if we had Bluelink in Australia, I'd most likely be driving a Ioniq 5, or an EV6. Show stopper without it though, so I'll just stay with Tesla for now.

One thing to note that doesnt get reviewer attention: The coolant system in the Ioniq 5 takes a special non-conductive coolant that needs to be changed every 36k miles/ 36mo and it's expensive.. like 800-$1000 expensive. The fluid is $70 a liter for the fluid alone. Which gets rid of that whole move away from maintenance that we've all come used to. It then has a separate coolant loop for the HVAC that has to be replaced at 120k miles/ 10 years. and then every 24k miles/ 24 months after that first one. The EV6 Uses this second schedule for both HVAC and Battery as it's one loop as far as i'm aware. I was the first person at our local dealer to check out the EV6 on launch. I loved the car overall, but found that the overall loss of space compared to the model Y, at or above model Y pricing really didnt make a ton of sense. Combine that with the fact that the EA network isnt super strong in Michigan and I decided to pass. With changes to the government credits I think they're going to have to re-evaluate the MSRP on these vehicles. I do like the styling and the presenting door handles of the upper trim levels.

I havent looked it up since I went to test drive them, so the manuals are finally published. It's interesting that they're using differing systems. Good for the Ev6, kinda disappointing for the ioniq. That said, for the long term maintence of both, having to deal with it that frequently after the initial change is kind of a PITA.

Good review. Perhaps the only review I saw that touched some of the fundamentals that must be questioned as we move away from gas to EV. Like the Start-Stop, the physical buttons vs soft buttons, etc. All good points.

The advantage of the on/off button is that you have zero phantom drain on the Ioniq 5 unlike the Tesla environment. It s such a peace of mind when you leave the car for a long time going for holidays.

I’m happy to have my mind changed, but as of now, there is 0 evidence of an on/off button having less phantom drain than any other EV.

Great review and thanks for choosing the standard spec model, I find the SEL is usually the easiest of any Hyundai models to actually buy since most people go for the midrange priced car.

Thanks for the review, Ryan! I’m very optimistic about this car. Regarding the tiny frunk, I’ve heard conflicting reports as to how hot things get in a typical frunk if you live in a hot environment. It’s not ventilated, but its also not exposed to the Sun either, so I’m not sure whether to think frunks in general, or this one in particular, tend to get hot here in Austin.

It's a really good looking EV and has a lot of potential. The one thing I don't get is why Hyundai didn't keep the amber indicators on the tail lights. We get that ridiculous brake light blinker combo thing while Model Y and Mach E have amber indicators. I just don't get manufacturers' obsession with the red brake light blinker combo. The rest of the world gets amber blinkers.

Perhaps if you are only renting the car I can see a reason to use the reader, but if you own a car with one of the charging plans or you take a lot of road trips in your Bolt/Niro/Kona then you will have the App. Starting the charge from the app or the infotainment screen (via CarPlay or AA) is so much easier than using the charger itself.

Awesome review. Detailed yet clean presentation. Thank you Ryan.

This is one thing most non-auto people don’t understand about suspensions and “ride quality.” Unless a car has adaptive suspension, there is a tradeoff between ride quality and control/feedback. Teslas are sports cars, and the suspension is very stiff, tuned like a BMW model 3. My Tesla M3 is the most fun and responsive of any car I’ve ever driven. It just goes where you point it and it sticks to the road. But people do comment about how harsh it is over rough roads and potholes. This tradeoff in cars has always been there.

@@kens97sto171 Depends on your frame of reference... The Y is a sporty SUV... Much like my Acura MDX. If I put my MDX's adaptive suspension in Comfort, I find it way too floaty, so it always stays in sport. Likewise when I was shopping other SUVs, I found that aside from the X5, a lot of other SUVs I tested were way too soft in the handling department... I find our Y's suspension to be just fine... As far as comfort goes, the main reason the ride is "harsh" on the Y is because of the crap tires they give you. I swapped out the tires with Continental DWS 06+, which also means the sidewalls are a little taller since they don't come in the OEM size... The ride is much more compliant this way... Nice perk, is the DWS is much quieter than the OEM tire too, as even the wife pointed that out.

Left pad is not magnetic. Its just a metal pad on which you can stick some magnets. The rear seats are also on rails and can move forward and back. There is a 4th drive mode: Winter Mode, accessible by press-and-hold the Mode button. The EV screen you mention doesn't offer much information is actually composited over the actual map. It updates behind the car image as you drive. That screen is also interactive. It shows you the nearest charge station as you drive, as well as it's general direction. You can tap on the charge icon next to the car image to list every stations in the area up to something like 50kms. Its an old map layout but actually is actually quite useful. Mine has battery conditioning on approach to charger based on a destination point in that map.

Most of the things you mentioned missing from the SE I don't think people would miss. A heated steering wheel is nice in an EV, because that combined with heated seats on a chilly day can mean not turning on HVAC, which can extend range. Additionally, a sliding center console can allow the front passenger to stow a larger bag, which is really convenient. Not necessary though.

Great video btw please test more Ev's I like your honest opinions.

Couple of reasons why you have a start-stop applies to the immobilizer, (if you've heard of Hyundai's being stolen recently, it's the lack of an immobilizer), it continues to have a 12v batter to power on-board elements, as well as the V2L options, as you can power devices with either the top level trim, or by buying the add on external converter - something not included on teslas. Also to note due to tesla's design, if you have a power system error, or a battery issue, you can't access the vehicle at all, while this vehicle's manual bits will all still be accessible even at battery 0.

You forgot to mention you can see charge status from front too as in the middle of front bumper pixels also show too and the bumper illuminates also

I thought your evaluations pro and con were fair and well done. This is a good primer for someone interested in a 5. There are a few things I might view differently than you. The speaker-like thing left of the steering wheel is just a metal plate. Many people do use this for a magnetic phone mount or other things. I stick notes or reminders there. The navigation is outdated, but it works well. I use it while traveling. The really nice part is that it gives me turn-by-turn directions on my heads-up display. The frunk is tiny, but big enough for my L1 charging cable, an extension cord, Tesla converter and V2L connector. By the way, how could you not mention vehicle to load? During a 14-hour power outage after Ian blew through, V2L kept my refrigerator running, the lights on and my coffee maker working. The rattle you heard sounded like a seat belt turned the wrong way in back. Charging: it will definitely do 10% to 80% in 18 minutes. I have done it many times. Finally, you are complaining about having to touch a button to start it? I like that it starts when I want to start it, not when it thinks I do. Seriously, I can handle the workload of pressing a button. Okay, critique over. Very good vid. Thank you. I love my AWD Limited. Number 5 is alive!

At the 6:30 mark you mentioned that the guage cluster screen does not show you nearby cars that is incorrect. While it’s not standards on the screen. If you press the cruise control button vehicles to your side and in front of you will appear on the screen, similar Tesla’s platform. Additionally, you can pause the music track by pressing the volume button in and to skip the track you flick the knob downward to go to the next track and up to replay the track

One thing that I absolutely love about this family of EVs (Ioniq 5, EV6, GV60) and I think is underrated is the auto-regen mode. It doesn't bring you to a complete stop like i-Pedal, but it's so nice on the freeway because depending on your distance to another car in front of you, it will automatically adjust the strength of regen brakes when you let off of the pedal. If there there's a significant distance or the road is completely clear, it opts to let the car coast until another vehicle comes in range! Of course you can also initiate smart cruise control, but in cases where I'm just zipping around and want to actually do the driving it still takes the stress out of having to swap back and forth between pedal and break when there are a lot of cars out on the road.

I have a IONIQ 5 my sticker price was $55 Thousand .I live in apartments so it sucks that I cannot charge at home .You are correct Electrify America has so many issues with their pumps ,Like you said sometimes the screen is out and many times the card reader is not working so you have to keep moving to another pump that works .

In Europe/Asia, the driver side and passenger side MIRRORS are replaced by CAMERAS and the views are displayed where the pad is. Current regulations don't allow the removal of mirrors here in the USA. Otherwise, I test drove the Genesis GV60 recently and LOVED IT but with a range of only 245 miles, that's probably a deal-breaker, Awaiting a test drive of the IONIQ 5. I am pretty sure I will LOVE IT. (I have a Genesis already so I am very comfortable with their products,) One downside to the IONIQ vs the Tesla Y is the $7,500 TAX CREDIT. It's NOT AVAILABLE with an IONIQ but it IS AVAILABLE with the Tesla Y. Ouch.

I've been watching your Tesla videos for a long time Ryan. However, I wish reviewers like you would do some homework before making videos about vehicles they have little experience with. Why did you skip over the star button on the dash hard button array (probably the most important button on there)? This is a configurable button that allows you to add your own shortcut to the menus. I use mine to go to the EV vehicle screen, which you didn't show at all. Also, the paddles do far more than just turn I-pedal on or off as you stated. I didn't hear any mention of auto regen mode or any of the levels of regen you can cycle through while using the paddles. One final observation, There are four driving modes, not three. If you push and hold the driving mode button, the car will go into "snow" mode for winter driving. Cheers.

Great review...I've checked out the Ioniq 5, but it is not realky comparable to a Model Y. It is significantly smaller, it's Kind of like comparing a Mazda CX-3 to CX-5 in size difference.

Awesome review Sir! Most Tesla owners talk down when reviewing other EV's. Nice job about being objective and admitting that Tesla's ride comfort quality is not what it should be for a 60k+ car!

I don't mind the start/stop button due to it being satisfying to push, but I do agree. I think it should turn on and off automatically when unlocking and locking the vehicle with the key fob. I think the button should continue to exist if you just want to power the car down to sleep or something.

Charge point has been a major let down, station location, station operational, station access has all been wrong or outdated. Not a huge deal, until you try to update the info. Chargepoint has never updated or fixed any issue presented.

As an Ioniq 5 SE owner the Regen brake setting comments in the video are not accurate. There is auto, Regen 1, 2, and 3 as well as I pedal. The paddles allow you to change the Regen level based on your driving style and needs. It's not just I pedal or nothing as indicated in the video.

The mute button on the steering wheel actually does pause tracks if you're using a compatible app to listen to music. The up and down buttons next to the volume button skip tracks.

With a Tesla Model Y LR, I' ve used a chargepoint 350kW station in my home town where there are only a couple Tesla Level 1 destination chargers and it has worked fine every time. I also used chargepoint on the road and again everything worked. I don't normally use a public charger in my home town because I charge at home just fine but I wanted to try out a new CCS adapter. The CCS adapter works fine also but does require a firm push to seat it. The chargepoint stalls have a very fat, heavy cable but the main problem is it is very short so you have to park 'way over to the right from the viewpoint of backing into the stall to make it reach your Tesla charge port on the left. Some chargepoint stalls have both the CCS and the CHaDemo cables on the left side (from the viewpoint of backing into the stall), others have one on each side. I've never tried an EA stall and from all reports I'll probably skip them if any other option is available.

It's a shame Tesla doesn't switch to CCS 2 in US. M3 and MY are CCS2 in other countries and I believe they redesigned the S/X taillight in the new models do they also have room for it. It is so easy to just use any charger.

@@fishndive1961 CCS2 wouldn't work in the US... CCS1 uses J1772 with DC pins... CCS2 uses Mennekes with DC pins... Mennekes and J1772 are not natively compatible with each other.

Found your channel recently and have enjoyed a number of your videos. Thanks for this one. A lot of good, practical information RE: features and real world operation. The IONIQ 5 is a welcome entry to the EV mix. If you don’t mind a bit of feedback / constructive criticism, read on. Unless I totally spaced, there are two things you didn’t really delve into during your review which I feel are important for people to know. 1) Range: IMO, one of the most important things to report on in an EV review - actual range and charging experience. You briefly touched on charging at home, using the Tesla charger with an adapter, etc. But, what kind of charge %’s did you typically see per hour? I believe the spec’d range for the base model is 220 miles? Did you find that to be fairly accurate or way off? 2) MSRP vs Dealer Mark-ups: A few others have mentioned this so I won’t repeat everything they’ve said. But, if had watched this video not knowing how the majority of dealerships are adding crazy mark-ups to this (and other cars), I would think I could actually walk down to a Hyundai dealership and purchase/order one of these at the prices you listed. That is very very unlikely. Thanks again for your channel.

Thank you for making this

Great video, as always! It would be nice to see a Kia EV6 review as well, given how similar in some areas and different in others they are. I recently purchased an EV6 Wind RWD trim as my first EV and I'm really loving it so far (I was considering Model Y as well, but the price and lead time difference compared to features offered just didn't make sense for me), but it would also be really nice to see a Tesla owner's perspective on that car.

With a few key differences, he could use most of the footage and nearly all of the dialog from this for the Kia. I drive and EV6 Wind Tech, and Ryan's critique of the Hyundai applies across the board to the Kia. I agree with his observations, and I love my car. Go figure.

Love my EV6. Originally, I set out for the Ioniq 5 but none were available. I was able to land an AWD Wind and never looked back. We got hit with a heat wave and the power went out. I was able to use my ride as an air conditioned office till the electricity was restored. Really feels like Kia thought of everything. Even the stuff they didn’t think about lol.

Wooo thank you for the informative video. I made my decision! I’m selling my model 3 to buy Ioniq 5!

i actually really love the paddle shifters for regen mode

The steering wheel actually has that Hyundai logo in the form of Morse code..

You should mention to the owner of this car that they should update the software to the new release from last May. It offers some nice improvements over the base software that is installed in this vehicle.

I wish you could also do a review of the Polestar 2. I currently own a M3 and I did a test drive with a P2 and liked a lot, but for now M3/Tesla still gets my vote. Kid loves the "rainbow" easter egg. As many here said I am also tired with old school dealers, especially in the current state of cars market, that's a SUPER plus with Tesla and Polestar.

The inner of the left two toggle buttons on the steering wheel can be flipped down or up to change tracks forward/backward.

Thank you for all of the news and updates about Teslas and other EV’s you provide. This question maybe answered in more recent Hyundai/Kia videos, but I see that they’re now offering en-route battery preconditioning. But does that use the legacy maps application or can Apple CarPlay/Android Auto mapping applications tell the vehicle that it’s en route to a charging station, so that the vehicle can enable preconditioning ?

you'll need to use the onboard navigation system preconditioning to work

I've been driving an Ioniq 5 for one year now (I'm French), and I use Apple CarPlay for everything, but not for the guiding system. I absolutely never use another guiding system than the one built in the car. I think you spent less than 3 minutes to try it. But in a day to day use, it's perfect, extremely clear to read (with auto night mode), very responsive, the voice recognition is flawless, and to me it's prettier than the Apple or Google system (prettier meaning : it fits with the car. It's not some outside design that looks great on your computer or your phone, but no so great in this particular car). I should mention that I never feel the need to zoom or scroll in the map with my fingers (Maybe you do that all the time, although I can't imagine why), so I never noticed any lag.

A drummer 🥁 I knew there was a reason I was drawn to your station.😎

they should put the regenerative braking as part of the brake pedal where when press lightly regen kicks in then when you press harder disc brakes kicks in as well

11:00 I like the Powerbutton more, to make me aware the car is "Ready" and that there is now the "Betriebsgefahr" (Danger of operation of the vehicle). It makes me aware that I now have to be careful about other road users and my surroundings. Maybe that is just a thing to me. Also its good to have a button to activate the car features associated with the "ignition" mode on the car. That is just personal preference but driving is very dangerous and its good that you need to confirm to start the "engine/Drivemode".

Ryan, the regen paddle shifters will go through 3 levels of regen, plus you get the i-pedal which is like auto. Makes driving with one-pedal more effective. Unfortunately, base model is missing other things. 2023 is addressing the has improved maps, and pre-conditioning. Charge network is lacking but changing quickly.

You can skip tracks and adjust volume with the steering wheel buttons. You can’t play/pause though

Although you covered a lot of good detail, one important item for many drivers is the absence of a rear window washer/wiper. It may seem nitpicky, but it's a big deal and a safety issue when you're driving in rainy, dusty, mucky and most snowy or icy winter conditions.

The use of the Morse “I” with 4 squares in place of the front and rear Hyundai “H” make the car complete with its future themed shape. These are professionally made to adhere where the originals are by using a hairdryer to loosen adhesive and new Morse “I”s adhere in their place. The Ioniq 5 already has the Morse “H” on the steering wheel as a standard factory feature. The Morse “I”s front and back look so fitting as clearly the Chinese manufacturer felt.

The color and trim of this version is fantastic!

Just as you'd include gas mileage in an ICE car review, I think it's important to include efficiency in an EV review. You could mention the EPA rated efficiency of the various trims as well as your experience driving in each of the three modes. For reference, the EPA rating for the standard range Ioniq 5 is 31 kWh / 100 miles. The EPA rated efficiency of the RWD Tesla Model Y is 26 kWh / 100 miles.

on average, with mine, which is the SE version, I do 24.14 kWh/100miles, but the maximum speed in Costa Rica is 56 m/h

Here in Europe we have great charging infrastructure like IONITY which always have 350KW chargers at a fair price. They also support "plug and charge" like a Tesla in my Skoda Enyaq (a sister to VW ID4 and Audi Q40 etron). But Tesla supercharger here in Denmark are also open for all EV's. In the EU all cars use the standard CCS plug, so all cars fit in all chargers. I can see in many car reviews that you need better charging infrastructure in the USA. And Tesla have much more competition here in Europe than in the USA.

The i-pedal turning off when reversing makes sense. When backing up, you need to go slow, and hovering your foot over the brake, not the throttle, seems much safer

Echo this. I am currently driving a Fiat 500e, and the one pedal mode is great in town, but annoying as hell when parking in a tight spot.

A small correction appears to be needed on your experience with the region. You mentioned multiple times that it seems to switch between off and full regen with the shifters on the wheel, now that would only be the experience if you hold those shifters. If you pull it and immediately let go, you will be able to move between the 4 different levels of regen. These levels also explain the complaint you had about drive modes and the speed difference you experienced. Each drive mode can have a different default amount of regen. For the eco mode, you go to level 2, whlie standard and sport modes default to level 1. So when you go from sport to eco, your regen goes from 1 to 2 and the car slows down as the 0-point shifts as it wants to give you a bigger range to play with on the regen side of the throttle. Another correction is on the reverse. In reverse you also have one-pedal driving, but with the brake pedal. Auto-hold also doesn't work in reverse for the same reason. In reverse, they want you to never take your foot of the brake pedal.

I love the look of this car!

Have you not noticed that on the right side of the home screen, that maps ARE integrated into it? They are faint, and kind of in the background, but totally there. I noticed it when you went to CarPlay and the map was the same as what was on the right side of the home screen. My Santa Cruz (basically the same infotainment, minus the EV stuff) does this as well. I think it was a couple of months before I realized it.

IMO the ride quality, seats and road noise are better than a model 3. The exterior looks better too. Everything else just sucks. If I was doing short commutes, charging at home and relying on carplay, I'd get this with my model S. Personally I can't stand the model 3 and model y interiors.

We have the base SE AWD model and haven’t missed any of the additional features of the higher trims.

Question on the App, do you have to pay for it , like a subscription? My Kia Niro 2021 has a good little app but u only get it for a year then have to pay for it! I consider that crazy.

I seriously can’t wait to test and own an Ioniq 6!!

Guy’s hold your horses! This is almost escalating into an iphone vs. android type rivalry.

Dont forget its 2 to 4 years of wait to get one of these. I'm currently on the waiting list... But won't expect one until 2024-2025.

6:06 it’s actually used like a fridge would be to put magnets on to save notes, or any important things you want to have in your eyesight

Ionic5 is probably the most popular ev after tesla but what is the true purchase price? Any dealer markups?

I like the start-stop button and they should keep that design. If I get out to check mail or open the gate at work I don't need the car to shut off every time I get out of the car for a few seconds.

The funny thing about Electrify America is that I have had the best experience with them. They are the best option (imo) is that bad. They are coming out with new charging stations, hopefully more reliable

Can you add some stuff to your reviews for those of us who live off the bitumen? 1. Trim quality. eg. does anything look/feel fragile. 2. Under car. eg. does it look like it will survive rough roads, and kicked up road debris. 3. Spare tyre. 4. Ride over rough surfaces.

Great review, felt very balanced - honestly, I was expecting this to be more of a “but Tesla is better” video, but it’s not that at all. Thanks :)

Great unbiased review. There are so many Ioniq 5 videos that are Tesla hater vids that don't show ALL the pros and cons. I love the shape but the "electric" styling elements like angle lines and wheels are quirky and gimmicky

1. Hyundai has been less bluffing about the driving range. They walk the talk unlike Tesla. 2. I like that on-off button because it will prevent owners from experiencing phantom drain, which I've always experienced with my Model Y. 3. Hyundai/Kia dealerships suck. I had a heated quarrel with one dealer. That's the reason that I got Model Y instead of Ioniq 5.

The mute button pauses the music, and the button to the right of it, with the two arrows, is you’re skip track buttons. It’s confusing at first, but other brands do the same thing, AUDI for example.
