2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 [AU]

IONIQ 5, Hyundai's first-ever dedicated battery-electric model, which redefines the EV lifestyle through innovative and sustainable design.

Built on Hyundai's dedicated Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), IONIQ 5 makes the most of the architecture's design freedoms with its unique proportions and spacious, flexible and fully-featured interior.

Strong pure-electric performance and world-first patented ultra-fast 400V and 800V charging make IONIQ 5 a uniquely appealing EV proposition, while a Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function gives customers essentially a powerful mobile charger on wheels.

IONIQ 5 is available in one flagship grade, with the option of a 2WD, rear-driven motor layout, or a dual motor (rear & front) HTRAC AWD layout.

Every IONIQ 5 provides the safety of seven airbags and features an extensive suite of SmartSenseTM advanced active safety and driver assistance technologies.

A 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster is the headline in the cabin, along with a 12.3-inch Multimedia navigation unit featuring Android Auto/Apple CarPlay smartphone compatibility and a BOSE eight-speaker premium audio system.

Luxuries include seats trimmed in sustainable eco-processed leather, 12-way power front seats with 'Relaxion' (zero gravity) mode & memory function, and two-way power rear seats (60/40) with memory.

There is also a heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a vision glass roof with power sunshade, and a smart power tailgate.

EXTERIOR

A striking, aerodynamic fastback body profile heralds IONIQ 5's game-changing EV powertrain and uniquely versatile cabin.

A futuristic reinterpretation of the 1974 Pony concept car - Hyundai's first passenger car - IONIQ 5's form underpins immense cabin space and provides slippery aerodynamics (Cd is 0.288) to help maximise the efficiency of the battery-electric powertrain.

IONIQ 5's aerodynamic fastback silhouette applies the Parametric Dynamics design language and is enhanced by gloss black window and mirror trims, liquid metal painted cladding and flush type power door handles.

A hidden charging port at the rear on the driver's side promotes convenience and complements IONIQ 5's high-tech image. An LED Parametric Pixel charging indicator provides a visual gauge of charging status.

Parametric Pixel LED headlights and a hidden LED garnish headline IONIQ 5's distinctive frontal styling, with an aluminium clamshell bonnet, and a drag-reducing active air flap in the lower intake lending a clean aerodynamic look.

INTERIOR

IONIQ 5's 'Smart Living Space' interior theme maximises occupant space and versatility while showcasing an abundance of premium, soft-touch eco finishes creating a lounge-like contemporary ambience.

Panoramic view twin 12.3-inch displays headline IONIQ 5's modular driver cockpit, bringing together all the driving & operating information in an intuitive and high-tech layout.

IONIQ 5's dedicated E-GMP platform frees under-bonnet space compared with a conventional platform, which allows some HVAC components to be relocated out of the cabin, in turn allowing for a slim dashboard that opens up more front occupant space, as well as a generous drawer-type glovebox that holds up to 9.4 litres.

The dedicated electric platform also allows for a long wheelbase and a flat floor, increasing legroom and enhancing the overall sense of openness and space in the cabin.

A versatile 'Universal Island' adjustable centre console slides up to 140mm fore and aft to allow front or rear passengers to enjoy more space as required, as well as providing for all USB connectivity and storage needs.

Brakes

To match the dynamic performance of IONIQ 5's powertrain, a state-of-the-art Integrated Electric Booster (IEB) is fitted, combining the traditional vacuum assisted brake booster, hydraulic master cylinder, ESC unit and brake lines into a compact hydro-electric unit.

The IEB saves approximately three kilograms compared with traditional braking systems and provides rapid hydraulic response, robust failsafe performance and optimised brake pedal feeling via an internal pedal simulator.

Most importantly, the IEB implements ultra-rapid control of automatic emergency braking functions such as Forward Collision Avoidance-Assist.

The state-of-the-art IEB control system complements IONIQ 5's high-performance braking hardware, which consists of 345mm ventilated discs at each wheel, paired with low steel compound brake pads for maximum stopping performance.

SMARTSENSE™ SAFETY

IONIQ 5 features an extensive standard suite of SmartSense™ advanced active safety and driver assistance features.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist - Car/Pedestrian/Cyclist (FCA-Car/Ped/Cyc)

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) monitors for vehicles, pedestrians or cyclists that pose a potential collision risk and alerts the driver with a chime and a warning in the instrument cluster.

The system uses the front radar sensor and windscreen-mounted camera and is active when IONIQ 5 is travelling at more than 5km/h, up to 85km/h for pedestrian and cyclist detection, or 200km/h for vehicle detection.

In addition, FCA can automatically apply IONIQ 5's brakes as a collision avoidance or mitigation manoeuvre when no driver intervention is detected after a FCA system warning.

When activated, the system will attempt to bring the IONIQ 5 to a stop from speeds up to 65km/h when a pedestrian or cyclist is detected, or 85km/h when a vehicle is detected.
