Hyundai: Ioniq 5 starts at 41,900 euros
The Korean automobile manufacturer Hyundai has announced the prices for its new electric model, the IONIQ 5. It starts at 41,900 euros in Germany and can now be ordered and configured, which results in 32,330 euros after deducting the premium. The model debuts the "Electric Global Modular Platform" (E-GMP), which aims to impress with good and flexible space utilization and dedicated electric technology. Additionally, the manufacturer emphasizes the use of environmentally friendly materials in the interior. In addition to an 800-volt technology for particularly fast charging times - promising five minutes of charging time for 100 kilometers of range - the vehicle also offers the Vehicle-to-Load function, which allows the battery power to be used both inside and outside the vehicle. Furthermore, the company aims to score with high connectivity, the latest driver assistance features, and an eight-year vehicle warranty.
“The IONIQ 5 heralds a new era of electromobility at Hyundai, which we and our trading partners are looking forward to with enthusiasm,” says Jürgen Keller, CEO of Hyundai Motor Deutschland GmbH.
The entry-level version combines a 58-kWh battery with a 125 kW/170 PS electric motor on the rear axle and is expected to have a power consumption of 16.3 kWh/100 km. Also equipped with the 58-kWh battery is the IONIQ 5 with 173 kW/235 PS, which achieves 18.1 kWh/100 km, has all-wheel drive, and starts at 45,700 euros. The larger battery with 72.6 kWh capacity is also available in two versions: The model with rear-wheel drive delivers 160 kW/217 PS with a consumption of 16.6 kWh/100 km and costs from 45,100 euros. The top model with all-wheel drive and 225 kW/305 PS and consumption of 17.6 to 18.8 kWh/100 km remains under the 50,000-euro mark, at 48,900 euros. This positions the manufacturer slightly above the recently discounted Tesla Model 3, which starts at 39,990 euros as "Standard Plus" with rear-wheel drive, with higher-level driver assistance adding 3,800 euros. The all-wheel-drive "Long Range" version from the Californians is priced at 49,990 euros, without the so-called "Enhanced Autopilot Package" featuring lane change, parking, and summon functions.
Extensive Standard Equipment
The standard equipment of all IONIQ 5 models includes full LED headlights, LED taillights, 19-inch alloy wheels, two 12.25-inch screens for the cockpit and navigation system, the Bluelink telematics system, a rearview camera, heated front seats, a sliding rear seat bench, as well as extensive safety systems, including adaptive cruise control and intelligent traffic sign recognition. Additionally, customers can personalize their Hyundai IONIQ 5 with three equipment packages. Highlights of the Dynamiq package include a front parking aid, second-generation highway assist, rear cross-traffic alert with emergency braking, an exit warning, a battery heating system, an electrically adjustable driver seat, and wireless charging for compatible smartphones. Optional extras include a heat pump, an electric tailgate, the LED package (e.g., full-LED projection headlights in pixel design, V-shaped LED light strip at the front, LED technology turn signals), and the Park package (e.g., around-view monitor, remote parking assistant).
Packages Bundle and Simplify the Choice
The Techniq package also includes the heat pump, components of the LED package, fabric-leather seats, a heat-insulating windshield, and a sliding center console. Optional extras like a panoramic glass roof, a Bose sound system, an electric tailgate, 20-inch alloy wheels for versions with a 72.6 kWh battery, the Park package, and the Seat package (e.g., leather seats, ambient lighting in 64 colors, exit assistant) are available.
The top Uniq package combines almost all of the mentioned extras. Highlights include the head-up display with augmented reality function and electrically retractable door handles. Optional extras include 20-inch alloy wheels for models with the larger battery, a panoramic glass roof or a solar roof, as well as electrically adjustable front seats with relaxation function and rear seats. The model is also fully eligible for the innovation premium from the Federal Office for Economic Affairs and Export Control (BAFA), reducing the purchase price by 9,570 euros when combined with the manufacturer’s share, leading to a starting price of 32,330 euros.
