A virtual world premiere of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 all-electric midsize CUV took place yesterday.
The first production vehicle from Hyundai’s Ioniq lineup sits on a dedicated BEV architecture – Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP). It enables unique proportions on an elongated 3,000-mm wheelbase and supports both 400- and 800-volt charging infrastructures.
The model offers innovative interior design with eco-friendly materials in many touchpoints, ultra-fast charging, advanced connectivity, and driver assistance features.
The Ioniq 5’s new advanced Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function supplies up to 3.6 kW of power, allows using or charging any electric devices which serve as a charger on wheels.
Users only need to charge the vehicle for 5 min to get 62 mi/100 km of range, according to WLTP. The Hyundai Ioniq 5 comes with the next level of the Hyundai SmartSense driver-assist suite.
Exterior and Cabin
The exterior features include Hyundai’s first clamshell hood, a V-shape front bumper, distinctive daytime running lights and small pixel-like clusters at the rear; a strong C-pillar shape, auto flush door handles, Parametric Dynamics-designed doors, and 20-inch aero-optimized wheels.
The CUV is equipped with electronically adjustable front seats. To provide more space for the second-row passengers, Hyundai reduced the thickness of front seats by 30%.
In the cabin, a wide configurable dual-cockpit features a 12-inch full-touch infotainment screen and a hoodless customizable 12-inch digital gauge cluster.
For the first time in a Hyundai, the Ioniq 5 offers an Augmented Reality Head-Up Display.
