When I bought my first ev early 2023, and the Ioniq 5 not having a rear wiper was one of the reasons I didn't get one; I live in Canada, and due to the snow, rear wiper is mandatory for me.
This car will definitely be on my upgrade list.

[Yormsane]

The new red paint looks cool, it needs be available on every trim level. I also wanted a dashcam recording system (a la Tesla) for this '25 refresh, kinda surprised Hyundai hasn't done this already. The cameras are already in place on the car, seems like it would be relatively easy to do.

[guillaumepare]

Thanks a lot.
Funny because the lack of light in the charging port could have been resolved by using pale color plastic (white or light grey) or two high contrast colors. Cheaper, more simple and not prone to break.
And I agree with you. Accelerated sound and fake shifts are a waste of time and money.

Thanks Corbin, but with that air quality indicator, wonder if they now have a HEPPA filter, maybe interesting to check! Also in the Kia EV9 it has a Lithium Ion battery for the 12 volt system wonder if they upgraded the 12volt Lead acid battery as well! Ioniq 5 keeps getting better!

I'd still like to see full V2Home and/or grid support, in addition to the load adapter, but other than that I agree that this is perfect. Too bad I won't pony up for a brand new one, so I might still be two years out from mine. (Oh, and a sentry mode would be nice.)

Given the many great changes coming, hard to believe anybody would buy the current model if they are able to wait until later this year. Sales of the existing model will stagnate unless they are almost giving them away. Love the augmented reality navigation! As a senior citizen when driving in heavy traffic in new area, nice to have the wife help watch for turns.

[Draconis]

So many good updates for the 2025. Thanks for keeping us up to date!

What about the route planner? It tells about the SoC percentage at charger arrival, how long to stay there and when to leave for the next charger? For me, the most important feature is route planning.

[andrewnicholson]

The battery is the biggest upgrade for the 2025 version. The EV9 is capable of bi directional charging and I wonder if this feature is part of the architecture of the 2025 Ioniq 5. V2G and V2H are potentially big selling points and I wonder if this will be enabled at some point in the future on this new version.

1:09 Hyundai dealership confirmed to me that all existing Hyundai models are being prepped for upgrading to wireless Android auto / carplay later this year.
Its not ota, need to make appointment.

[StachelyPigglyBottom]

Appreciate this video! Lots of nice little details including rough pricing. If I can get a decent trade in for the MY23 Limited and US pricing isn't insane I think I'm probably going to go for it. So many QoL things stacked together make this a really compelling upgrade. Feel like I'd be much more satisfied owning the 25 over the 23 for many years.

[denislemenoir]

One thing putting me off upgrading is the huge drop in value of my Ioniq 5 2022 SEL. I bought it as MSRP (I think 51K cash) and now we're at ~22K on blue-book (no issues at all with my car either). That's massive in two-years and puts me off upgrading for a while if the car is still going great.

[James__Gregory]

Corbin, thanks for all your amazing work and info! It's incredibly helpful, and you've created such a good community of folks here. If the new hatch guides stop the noise in the back (which is horrible now in my car even after the TSB), and they fix the overheating charge port issue, then I'm in, and my '23 Limited will be going bye-bye! And if it's possible to dial down the 'N''s drive mode so that it gets similar or the same range as the non 'N' models, I'm more than happy to pay extra for the 641 horses. I would probably be considering a new Macan Electric Turbo, so this would be a huge value comparatively. Fingers crossed.

Great content as always! Really nice updates all around! Still enjoying my 2023 Limited model, but let’s see where EVs are when my lease is up in a couple years…

On the sound system—I feel the last major infotainment update fixed the sound system for me. Using that sound engineers settings from the Ioniq 5 subreddit, the volume is now fixed (my cruising volume is now level 25 not 50), the dynamics and spacing improved, and the bass is punchier and cleaner post-update. No complaints now!

[Vamanos]

My new wish list for Hyundai/ Genesis / HMG:
1) add more custom settings vs default for the reversing camera /360 camera ( 1 press vs double press)...

2) And copy the VERY FANCY camera trickery that Toyota does that allows you to see the terrain under the car ("Panaromic View Monitor" - the front cameras come on when you slow down to a stop, starts painting the road surface under the car for EXACT PRECISE TIRE PLACEMENT).

3) use Genesis gv60 toggle buttons for cabin temperature adjustment
- i am not a guy that falls for aesthetics but the hvac controls are beautiful in the Genesis,
- the auto buttons AND RE-CIRCULATE BUTTONS are close together- Yay.

4) I disliked the fan up Fan down buttons getting separate discrete buttons as well, could be a toggle as well,
- but other ppl will start complaining if things start looking asymmetrical.
- So i don't have a solution for that.

5) if you're gonna do the 3 spoke wheel just bring the bottom rim of the steering wheel TOWARDS the driver hands ( eccentric shape )

Edit
6) add a second sport key (like Volvo did a while back - it's waterproof, no buttons) measures 5.5x2.5x0.8 cm
- I can rely on it even if my phone / watch battery goes dead
- flat enough to be in a tiny zipper compartment of my wallet.

Very glad to hear they doing actual updates. Glad I leased and can upgrade. I really hope the suspension improvements fix the unsettling movements when you go over bumps and potholes.

[Tolmansboy]

What about better under body protection?

[williamfeiring]

Wish they added memory for last setting of the regen paddles. I primarily drive in “auto” mode and not having to set it every time I start the car would be nice. That being said all the improvements are great. Seeing as I purchased my 2022 I5 Limited and the huge hit in current value, I think I will be keeping it for a long time. When I get ready for a new EV there should be lots of great choices!

[afml]

You're so right. Wish they would upgrade the stereo.
