I've said it before and I'll say it once more: Hyundai is really on a dual-mission to really elevate their brand even further. Pulling off products like the widely well-received Palisade is one thing. But playing to a high level in virtually all categories is another. The N/N-Line vehicles are some of the best in their respective classes. The new Sante Fe looks to be a fun small-midsize CUV. The Tucson is getting refreshed, as is the Sonata and Elantra. And this Ioniq 5 really adds excitement to the EV class. Seemingly more exciting than Teslas(with better build quality), they're really making some serious waves.

Many people complain that having to use the screen to choose seat heat or ventilation and steering wheel heat is "weird". I never use the screen - I use voice commands for these settings, which work quite well. Voice command works well for many other functions as well and I use it often.

[@chippi2000]

That's been fixed in the new "real" 2024 model. You will get dedicated buttons for seat heat and ventilation. Also a lot of other new stuff like a rear shield wiper. The brothers did review the old 2023 version in this video. The title is missleading.

I really liked your review. I've had my Ioniq 5 for about a year and a half and I love it. It is our 3rd Hyundai (1988 Excel - first new car, 2019 Santa Fe, 2022 Ioniq 5, and a 2022 Venue). Hyundai puts out a great product. I am totally happy with my Ioniq 5, and my wife loves her Venue. Even though we are more of a Jeep and truck family, Hyundai will always have a special place in our hearts.

This fall

[@jazzfan7491]

So to change the temperature, just hit the up or down arrows, but to get to the settings for the seat heating or cooling, hit the "Warmer" spot (it's not a button, that's why I say "spot"), and then adjust on the screen above? Sure seems like Hyundai should simply add a "seat temperature control" button.

[@BioniqBob]

I adjust the heated seats once maybe twice, glad not to have a more buttons. They have just enough.

I think you guys did a great review of the Ionic 5, but you really downplayed the reclining rear seats. On long trips with 2 or three passengers, having the comfort of being able to substantially recline their seat in the back can make those trips much nicer.

[@ejpemoney6984]

[@TheSixoul]

I'm confused I saw a review of the 2024 SEL and that one said the seats weren't the synthetic leather and didn't have a pull down cup holder in the back or the rear vents. Which version is this?

[@CarConfections]

This is the Limited

[@BioniqBob]

Different set-ups for different countries.

[@davidmccarthy6061]

Still my top choice of the moment but we won't need another vehicle for a good five years, so can't wait to see what's available then.

[@KristopherLee]

06:56 - I just bought a 2024 SEL IONIQ 5 this weekend, and it most definitely has cloth seats. In addition to the seats, the 2024 SEL also no longer has the following that the 2023 SEL had: - Rear vents for passengers - Ambient RGB interior lighting - Power folding mirrors - Armrest with cupholders for the backseat - One less seatback pocket - Door panels are hard plastic (no more soft touch material) Hyundai seems to want to push buyers to the Limited trim by basically nerfing the SEL trim.

[@Jason_Cardoza]

What deal did you get?

[@andreb.8266]

So, only the 5N have the rear wiper... Look like I will have to wait. I'm in Canada and no rear wiper is a no deal for me.

[@therealevan]

Still no rear wiper for MY2024? I thought based on the N leaks we would finally get one...

Not a big deal. Spray down the rear glass with spray wax and buff out. Water will roll right off the glass, keeping it relatively clear.

Great job men explaining 2024 ioniq 5. Living in fl. and owning a. 2023 ioniq 5, the weather and salt pose a problem with the lithium batteries and their suseptibility to thermal runaway from salt water and exposing your vehicle batteries to puddles and standing salt water generated in hurricane weather. patterns in fl. Their is very little mentioned about this critical situation from manufactures, car dealers and advocates of car reviews. We have had in FL. Numerous thermal runways of electric vehicles from people not realizing if their lithium battery is compromised by salt corrosion you loose the car and possable your home if car is parked in garage of home.

Good review. Hyundai is currently recalling some vehicles to check the ICCC and fuse, and there are some issues with at home charging and thermal management shutting down the charging. This EV offers so much more than a dour Model Y inside, but the 3 beats it in range and quickness.

Hello! I am from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 The Ionic 5 (option ECO) is officially available in Kazakhstan since Aug. 20, 2023 with retail price worth U$63K. However, Chinese ZEEKR 001 (Z-Sport option) with same retail price is the closest competitor that technically surpasses the Ioniq 5. It will be interesting to observe the competitive wars between two brands on the Kazakh market. Paradox: Chinese EVs run the Kazakh market of EV. Zeekr, Avatr, Lixiang, Hi-Phi.

[@AlexSoubannarath]

I thought that the Standard comes with HDA2 and limited comes with HDA3. If they went backwards in tech from the 2022 model then that would be sad on their part.

HDA 3.0 is not currently available in the U.S but is offered in some other markets

[@Dreadpirateflappy]

So annoying that in the uk we can’t get HDA 2.0 at all on the Ioniq 5 or 6, even the KONA comes with it as standard on higher trims.

[@ricardochoa]

Same mate, I placed an order for mine and have nooooo idea why it’s 1.5 and there’s no explanation on why that’s the case. But Hyundai website is basic, as the 2024 version doesn’t even mention digital mirror, WiFi hotspot of improved security for passangers at the back. And all videos are Canada or US and don’t have the same trims. Got myself the Ultimate RWD

Isn't that the one that replacing the battery will cost you $59,000 dollars in Canada?

Thank you for this review. I love the amount of leg room in this car. In my opinion too many small SUVs have unnecessarily large center consoles.

Yet another review of a high spec Ioniq 5 which bears little resemblance to the lower spec entry models, setting up many buyers to be disappointed.

I had to change my car in 2023, so back in 2022 i rode tested the ioniq 5 , and bevause i liked it i pre ordered a ioniq5 full trim . The salesman put me on the waiting list and it woul$ be a long wait. So back in 2022 i started to wait and wait and wait.. months after months after months. We are now in 2023, and i could not wait any longer because my previous vehicle needed to be replaced asap, The dealership said that Hyundai was increasing production but it would still take atleast another year in my case. With some luck i may get a 2024 if not a 2025 (most likely 2025. But unfortunately he can not tell as they have no control over what hyundai ship. Meanwhile i started shopping around and i went to Tesla. The tesla rep, gave me a quote for something i could afford, in the same price range of the ioniq5 i ordered, the Tesla rep looked on his computer and realized that the Tesla i pulled from the shopping screen menu was available, in fact it is right here .. the tesla rep tried to look around the floor and found the Tesla i just ordered online was about parked inside 40 feet away from the main showroom,. So he said here, here is your Tesla, if you want you can get this one. I was like Sure man i'll take it! Lets do the paper work. The trade-in went very smoothly. Tesla offered me the same value as hyundai did for my trade in car which was $39k for the trade in, all i had to do was to pay the difference. About a week later the delivery was done, i had my Tesla in front of my house just like that. The one week waiting was only because they wanted to clean the car on delivery, i had to wait for the bank and the insurance company and the tesla rep had a couple days off and i was also busy working .. but technically speaking i could have got the Tesla delivered 48 hours after my first visit to a Tesla center. So i went to hyundai and cancelled my order. The hyundai rep wasn't happy but stayed polite. It is a little sad, and my story happens every days with others. I wanted a ioniq5 but i simply could not wait 2 years, let alone 1 year. What would had happened if i crash and total the ioniq5, does it mean i will have to wait 2-3 years again to get another one? So i will have to buy a new car until i receive the second ioniq5… and lose even more in another trade-in again? The choice was logical.. Took me a couple of days to get use to the Tesla handling, but the learning curve went well.. in fact, i really like the tesla now. The basic cruise control is really smooth, the acceleration is amazing, and one of the coolest feature of the entire tesla is called Camp mode. Omg this is really really a neat feature for those doing roadtrips and want to sleep in their vehicle. It makes your tesla like a mobile home. Better than any Tents.. Camp mode is to me the most important feature of the entire vehicle, i believe this feature is not offered in the ioniq5 nor in any EV.. Don't get me wrong.. im not bashing the Ioniq5 and im not a Tesla fanboy… if hyundai put a camp mode in their ioniq5 and offer me to swap my tesla for the ioniq5 today, i would probably do so.. but thats not how it works with hyundai.. with hyundai you have to wait over 2 years to receive your car. Also did i mention with tesla, their service work on 7/7 ? They have service open even on weekends, and even better they have a mobil service guy that can come to your position and fix certains issues if you ever have.. but after 10 miles.. i still have no issue with my 2023 tesla. The only downside on Tesla is resale value.. other than that it is a great car.. or should i say, the best camping car ever.

I love the car. The only 3 things I would change would be. 1. I wish they would have sticked with the gear shifter found on the hyundai ioniq 2020 electric models, the button style gear shifter so cool and unique 😎. The shifter by the steering wheel is boring. 🥱 2. I wish they would have stayed with the harmon kardon sound system. It is 100 times better than the bose sound system. And 3. Man they need to give us like 500 miles on a full charge if they really want to revolutionize the industry and make EVs the car to buy. Because I can get a toyota corolla and get 350 miles on a full tank…and fill up in like 5mins…They have to make it a no brainer to buy an EV OVER AN ICE. I dont see why it cant be done already but you know they have to milk us for a couple years first for profit.

The earth is burning so we invented a battery car. That car for some reason needs to have lightsorama, bellsofstmarys, and whistlesintoinfanightum. No it doesn't. How much cheaper would evs be if they had the same or less "features" as a car did in 1980? The cars would still work, but unfortunately it wouldn't wink at you every morning. It wouldn't annoy you will endless demands and suggestions. And you could use the endless pairs of gloves you get every christmas that get chucked in the back of your sock drawer to keep your hands warm for that 15 minute commute. Think about it. You get narrow tires, so much less milegae, and no spare tire. You don't need any of that crap because you have an $1000 iphone with all that on it. We won't need to plan every pee stop along the way on our thanksgiving journey back home. We won't need a sun roof, 20 cameras, 20 speakers, and 4800 lcd bulbs that do nothing to improve the driving ability of the person next to you on the interstate. The repair on your damaged car will break the bank because of all the loose bits. The bulbs will be from CHINA. the wire for INDIA. The tires from Brazil and the glass from Iceland. There will still be wars and rumors of wars. Parts will always be back ordered or stuck in a cargo ship in some boatyard waiting for the endless strikes to be over. And the worst part is the poor will only buy used gas guzzliers because they cant' afford battery cars.

[@DiscoveryOwners]

I owned the original 2022 model for 7 months. It looked good on paper but it turned out to be a $57k mistake. Very few things impressed me. Got a Mustang MachE not impressed with it either but I liked it better. Got a Tesla MYLR, missing some features I think it should have but far superior, even before the huge price drop. Really strange, I didn’t think I would like the Tesla, should have got it in the first place.

Glad you are happy with the Tesla. There are people like myself who don’t like Teslas or don’t want to give Elon our money. The Ioniq 5 has more personality than the Y and won’t be so ubiquitous driving down the road.

Nothing satisfies you, I see.

i have both model y and ioniq 5 limited, and i see myself driving ioniq 5 more often...

There seems to be a common dominator with your ev car issues.

I think the problem is you.

I was behind one of these today and I was thinking how great it looked so I came here. Unfortunately, the majority of EV look like shit on the inside, this is no exception. I don’t understand why this is the case for most EV’s

Amazing that 2 things everyone is asking for….rear wiper and wireless CarPlay and android auto are still not available for 2024 model. Really unacceptable.

It's a great car with great features.... Until you actually use it for normal daily activities, then going over a pebble will void warranty and you'll need to replace battery for $60,000 or total the car for insurance.

No wireless CarPlay!! Thank you, but good bye!
