Hyundai Ioniq 5 named 2021 car design of the year
Hyundai’s first dedicated electric vehicle has been awarded the industry’s production design award, with Renault taking out the best concept car category

The all-electric Hyundai Ioniq 5 has been awarded Production Car of the Year in the Car Design Review.

Produced by industry outlet Car Design News, the annual publication awards the best design to both a concept car and a production car – with the judging panel including head designers from Maserati, Volvo, and Volkswagen.

“Once in a while a car comes along that creates an impact on the design community,” said Maserati’s Vice President of Design Klaus Busse.

“The Ioniq 5 is such a car, and its impact is evident in the sketches of many young student designers.”

The Hyundai's “striking surfaces and geometric patterns” were also highlighted by the judges, with some referring to the Ioniq 5’s design as a “gamechanger”.

The eighth annual Car Design Review also named the Renault 5 as the winner of the concept car category, despite strong competition from both Lexus LF-Z and Polestar Precept.

“Renault 5 Concept shows a beautiful mix between retro design and the modern reincarnation of an iconic car of the past.”

The 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 is on sale in Australia now, priced from $71,900 before on-road costs, while a production version of the Renault 5 is expected in the future.

calling this car as a game changer, is funny, it was done 40 years ago.

Looks-wise, yes, but this thing is rather big. Crossed off my list.

Yes, quite big.

To compare it with outback (following previous comment of replacement)

Exactly. This is not a bad thing.

Angelus911 · 10-06-2021, 02:49 PM

I've been debating whether to get a car now or wait for the Ioniq 5 to be available this fall/winter.

Calamity Jesus · 10-06-2021, 07:33 PM

Considering the current market, waiting is definitely a better option.

double edged sword... trade in values are through the roof. So if you can actually find the car you want and not have to pay ADM, it might not actually be too bad of a time.

I started shopping for a *sigh* used nissan leaf plus *sigh*. to replace our outback. Not many on the market and the ones that are sell quick, but the used value of our outback is insane right now, I feel like I want to take advantage. I'm still too skeptical to buy a first model year anything, let alone EV. I like that the Leaf has been around for a damn long time and isn't likely to end up with major issues - like the Kona EV did... Gonna be a while before a fun EV comes out and has a few years of production before I'm ready, I can't see holding on to the outback for that long. My wife has to deal with city commuting as a teacher, so having an EV makes a lot of sense.

The interior of this thing is pretty dorky too. They made it all modular and bound to break. I remember thinking that I was interested in this, but after seeing a video walkthrough of the interior, I changed my mind.

For this class of car, I'm a lot more interested in the Audi Q4 etron 50 coming out.

A lot of inferences by you about the interior design and being bound to break. Just because things move around doesn’t make them more prone to breaking.

Personally not a fan of light interiors, but the dark one looks pretty good to me:

I prefer the more rounded shapes of the EV6 over the Ioniq5.

The official EPA ratings are in.

Any brand-new pure battery electric vehicle needs to be able to reach around 300 miles on a single charge in order to be competitive. The all-new Hyundai Ioniq 5 has accomplished this. The South Korean automaker has confirmed the EPA has given the retro-styled hatchback/SUV a certified maximum range of 303 miles with the single motor setup. The dual-motor all-wheel drive version can travel up to 256 miles. Both versions are equipped with a 77.45-kWh battery pack whose juice is sent to either the rear or all four wheels.

The single motor, 2WD produces a total of 225 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. The dual-motor sees those figures increase to 320 hp and 445 lb-ft. That extra power results in a 0-60 mph of less than 5 seconds but also less range.
A few days ago, the EPA released range figures for the Ioniq 5's corporate cousin, the Kia EV6. Both ride on the E-GMP platform. The EV6, however, can be equipped with a less powerful 56-kWh battery but only in the single motor setup where it returns 232 miles. The 77.4-kWh battery in the Long Range RWD gets you up to 310 miles. The Long Range AWD drops to 274 miles with the same battery.

Thanks to the Ioniq 5's 800-volt architecture, it can also accommodate 400-v charging without requiring the use of adapters or other similar components. When connected to a 350-kW charger, the Ioniq 5 can go from a 10 to an 80 percent battery capacity in just 18 minutes. Even in only five minutes, 68 miles of range can be recouped using the same fast charger.

The 10.9-kW on-board charger allows for a full charge in 6 hours and 43 minutes with Level 2 charging. Owners also receive unlimited 30-minute charging sessions at any of Electrify America's 700 charging stations across the country. That figure is due to increase to 800 charging stations and over 3,500 ultra-fast charging stations by the end of this year.

One of the Ioniq 5's coolest and perhaps most useful features is the V2L function that enables owners to charge a range of electric devices, such as laptops and scooters. Think of the EV as a charger on four wheels. It can also provide electricity during a power outage. Official pricing still hasn't been announced but expect an estimated $45,000 cost of entry, not including the federal tax credit and other state-specific incentives.

Was interested in this, but Hyundai decided to prioritize other markets over the US so I gave up. Looks like it would be towards the end of next year to get one if you didn't reserve.

heavyD · 12-09-2021, 08:50 AM

I think the EV6 is much better looking. It's the best front end design I've seen in over a decade. Hopefully it signals the end of the big mouth grilles.

I agree, the EV6 looks better than the Ioniq5, but I don't like sloping rooflines on CUVs; cuts into cargo capacity - make a decision, sporty car or useful crossover, not this in between BS. The Ioniq5 is what I'd look at out of the two; boxier cargo/hatch area, just more "utility" in the Hyundai CUV over the Kia.

subyski · 12-09-2021, 11:15 AM

I can't say I like the EV6 or Ioniq5 better. They took their designs in different directions, which is great. I like them both for different reasons. I do like the retro looks of the Ioniq5.

dwf137 · 12-09-2021, 01:47 PM

Front of the EV6 looks good, but that rear end is all sortsa weird. The Ioniq5 flows well all around and has really good proportions. I just wish it were like 3/4 sized...

Sid03SVT · 12-09-2021, 04:23 PM

Ioniq5 is very close dimension-wise to a Rav4.

overall Ioniq5 Rav4
length: 182.5 181.5
width : 074.4 073.4
height: 063.2 067.0

I saw one of these in the wild last night. Looked really good.

Too bad dealers are marking them up up to 10k over MSRP - I would never pay over MSRP for a car

5k is common for Ioniq5 now but there are few dealers which sell for MSRP.
One of the dealer was at CT. Heard they have one last one but probably it’s gone by now.

Kia/Hyundai’s palisade and telluride were sold for 10k markup for a while so those dealers have experiences for markup. Not surprised.

Hyundai is not doing themselves any favors... they essentially pulled most links about the car from the website. Used to be in the 'model' and 'Build and Price' pages, but has been removed.

Was also listed in the "No Way Home" promo, but they pulled it from there, too, and replaced it all with the Tucson.

They only way to find it now, on the site, is on the home page, under the "What's Happening at Hyundai" page, and then "Show More" with a link to the 'old' No Way Home page/promo/info.

That said, once you do all that, and go to configure, prices are now on the site. (Which they weren't 2 days ago).

RWD...
SE Standard Range $39,700
SE $43,650
SEL $45,900
Limited $40,600

Dual Motor...
SE/SEL add $3500
Limited add $3900
N/A on SE Standard Range

Why is Limited +$400 than the others?
