HYUNDAI Ioniq 5 verdict

★★★★★

This has consistently been reviewed as a top choice. Should your work commute total 101kms, the 84kW battery would need recharging every 5 days while the 63 kW would last 3 days. With 800V charging, exceptional range (507kms) and a design which has now become iconic, it is to EVs what the Honda Civic EF hatch was to compact cars.

Yeah!

+ Performance: no slouch in any guise; get the N for excitement

+ Range: at 507 kms

+ Design: What was once avant-garde has now become iconic.

Meh.

– Infotainment: Not as good as competitors

– Reliability: Owners have reported as patchy
