I think it's interesting that the solution for no rear wiper was to implement a rear view camera with and output display incorporated into a two-way mirror type screen embedded into the rear view mirror. Instead of like, adding a rear wiper for instance...

Drove this recently from London to Italy and back. Super comfortable and fun.

Of course they took stuff away from when it first launched too. Some safety systems were removed, the automatic pop out door handles got removed from all but the top spec and V2L is now an option where previously it was standard.

"We made a car with no rear window wiper, and we heard your complaints about not being able to see a bloody thing, so now we've installed a camera and a display in the rear view mirror! All this for only £50 grand!"
Why can't we just have a goddamn wiper and save £1, 000?

Getting one as company car .. it just so happened that the guy who ordered it left so it was available.. it’s £30 a month tax compared to £250 odd for my 1.5 VW Golf .. no brainier 💪

I understand the original didn’t have wireless Apple CarPlay and only had USB-A outlets. Has there been an update to this?

I forgot what car it was (A Lexus or Acura SUV of some sort) I saw recently that had a wiper deploy DOWNWARD from the same sort of top spoiler the IONIQ 5 has, making it invisible when not in use. So, if the IONIQ 5's lack of rear spoiler is a design choice, why don't they just do THAT?

From the moment the Ioniq 5 went on sale, I looked at it with great interest. What put me off then and now is; (1) the high price (2) the hopeless colour choice. What we need are cheaper EV's.... Not more expensive ones.

Hyundai is really impressive recently they’ve upped their game big time in design, quality and features across all their cars. Only thing going for Tesla is their software and AI.

[ademcguinness]

What would make it "even better" would be for it to be much more affordable, too much money for most, means low volumes and doesn't push on the drive for adoption of zero emissions vehicles.

I must admit, it is great car. However, I would not recommend it to no one.
I have bought one Ioniq5 on PCP on September 2021 and car was very good until wind screen crack. Since I have reported it to insurance on the beginning of June I had to wait until and of September because there was no windscreen in UK, and it was “back order”. Fortunately, I was able to drive it. But the real problems were ahead 😪😩. Just before Christmas 2022 on board charger got broken, car was taken to main dealer. I was told that they haven't got parts on shelf because it's back order and I must wait. After two months and two weeks I finally had message from the dealer that they will get the part next week and get the car fixed for me. I was very excited that I'm going to get my car back after two months and two weeks. I forgotten to mention but, in the meantime, they provided me with BMW series one petrol. From the same beginning I told them that I prefer electric cars, but they don't care. However, I was very patient, and I was looking forward to getting my car back. Unfortunately, when the onboard charger arrived at the dealer, they realise they need other parts, and those parts are also on backorder so now it looks like I might not have a car for 5 months.
After all that experience with the dealer and lack of the parts for the car they selling I decided to stay away from Hyundai I once and for all and to spread the word to other people not to make the same mistake and become the victim of this dealer. However, if you decided to buy one of those electric Hyundai's I wish you a lot of luck I hope nothing gets broken otherwise you might need to wait long time before you see your car again.

These are UK updates; most of these features were already available in S Korea or other markets.

Got an awd ultimate, best money we've ever spent, awesome car

[davestarkie]

I own an ioniq5. Its a great car! No rear wiper is the defo the biggest gripe with the car. Most of the other things mentioned in the video are very minor.

[az..N]

I really wish Hyundai made a hybrid version. Still not ready for battery anxiety.

[Renmpa]

The steering wheel is adjustable, for those worried not to see the dashboard. Just adjust it to your preferred height.

[chtojeetovsezanyali]

One of the best interrior: spacious for legs and seats are reclining in its best

[treads]

Why do you keep comparing this to the Model 3 when the Model Y is the car in the same class?

[philippf]

Got an ioniq 5. and the worst which is in my mind is that the rear window has no whipers, when it’s raining i see nothing back there
