So many people bashing on Motor Trend for making the right choice. Geez.
Maybe they didn't see that this also won World Car of the Year which is voted on by 82 auto journalists from around the world. I guess they are all wrong and all the keyboard warriors who have barely even seen the car in person nevermind drive it are right.

As a tall person i love the flat floor and steering wheel mounted shifter. A godsend in a world of giant center consoles.

You know what I love most about the EV revolution?

Rear wheel drive is making a comeback!

I owned one for 5 months, and I agree with you that it is a great compact SUV. The interior space is higher than much larger ICE SUVs, or EV SUVs built on an ICE architecture. It’s a lot nicer than most people would imagine both driving wise, and interior quality wise. But it is incredibly difficult to find in anything but the base spec without major markups. Numerous Genesis dealers don’t do markups. So once the GV60 Advanced becomes more available, I’d recommend that over the Limited AWD Ioniq. It has a much more luxurious interior, and more buttons for things that you have to use the screen for in the Ioniq, such as the seat heater/ventilation. At $60k, it’s only $4k more than the MSRP of the Ioniq Limited AWD pre markup.

And not one single bad thing about the car, incredible that Hyundai made the perfect electric vehicle!

Well deserved. the Hyundai I5 is so good. The I5N is even crazier. It checks all the boxes.

This review is very pleasant to watch. Well done!

Short of 20, 000 on my 2022 Ioniq 5 RWD long range SE model. Truly phenomenal and with the latest charging module update, this EV charges really fast, is superb as to economy meaning longer range lower cost. Love this EV!!

The IONIQ is a good looking vehicle inside and out. I agree with the reviewer it does have retro styling cues mixed with a modern flair that are appealing. As small to mid-sized electric vehicles are concerned, its a complete opposite direction in the styling department from the category leader Toyota Prius. Albeit the 2023 arrow-head-like redesign of the Prius is quite a looker. But non-the-less, both are appealing in their own way. It's just a matter if you want a 'car' or 'SUV'.

I am really not into sport SUV. Until i saw this.... if i ever want to own a compact SUV. This would be it.

[vancity]

It is but you fail to mention the extreme lack of supply. Dealers wont even take deposits for them. Its a 2yr plus wait to get one im North America. No sense pumping up a car you cannot get.

[vtwinsndiesels]

So crazy y’all filmed this at Otay lake! Right where I used to walk every single night! Awesome!

Did he just look me in the face and say “like your moms minivan?” 1:01

[Mcars]

hyundai IONIQ always pampers customers and always updates every year, the best in my opinion is Hyundai

[dsofe]

Why does everything have to be an SUV these days? This would have been a great hatchback, probably 10% more range with the improved aerodynamics. I hate this stupid SUV craze.

[bobbyhale]

Like every other electric car, the only ones that get to save money already have money and can afford an electric car. lol.

[johntyson]

I love the Ioniq 5, but SUV is a bit of a stretch.

[SC-orzb]

Lol so many people are butthurt that this car wins awards.

[fpartidafpartida]

They should have a full size and compact size category. The fact that this one “overall” SUV of the year is what most people are having a problem with (I think). A compact SUV is really a hatchback or city car and should not be categorized with a full size SUV capabilities.
