4 Month Ownership

So far, so good. I do not like the fact that if I would like to use my car as a hotspot for internet use, I must pay for an additional cell service. I have decided not to subscribe to the Verizon service.

Drives great, safety features maddening

Just overall a great driving, solid car, but with some maddening technology quirks.

Extremely Disappointing Lease Experience – 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 (Top Trim)

I am leasing a 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 in the highest trim level, fully loaded with every available feature, and the experience has been incredibly disappointing. Within the first couple of months of the lease, the vehicle required two separate tows due to repeated 12-volt battery drain. The dealership was unable to properly diagnose the issue for far too long. After multiple service visits, it was finally determined that a dealer-installed LoJack device was draining the battery—something that should have been identified immediately. Now, with only around 6,000 miles, the vehicle is back at the dealership again, this time for ICCU and fuse failure. Having major electrical and charging system issues this early into a lease is unacceptable, especially for a vehicle marketed as advanced and reliable. The technology is impressive on paper, but that doesn’t matter when the car is unreliable and repeatedly in the shop. Between multiple tows, poor diagnostics, and major component failures at such low mileage, this has been a frustrating and confidence-destroying experience. For a top-trim EV lease, I expected peace of mind—not repeated breakdowns and constant trips to the service department.

The Black Rat

Second coolest car I’ve ever owned. Number one was a 65 Austin Healey 3000 Mark III, even though that car could never keep up with my Ionic 5. Glad I didn’t get a Y, even though teslas charging network is the best.

Should have went with the higher trim

We got the bare bones trim on this, and dang, we made a mistake. I also have an Ioniq 6 SE, which has A LOT of great value packed standard features that the Ioniq 5 SE doesn't: powered lift gate, heat pump, V2L handle. It's also way more efficient than this car. So far, we're averaging 4.2 mi / kWh on the Ioniq 6, but just 3.2 mi / kWh on the Ioniq 5. It's not great. However, we do love the wireless android auto / apple car play. That is NICE. And, my wife loves the styling of the car, and how much higher it sits. Also, the cargo space is more usable. All in all, we really like the car.

Great value, but build quality concerns

Overall, I’m genuinely impressed with the car; it offers a level of technology and features that really make it feel like a leader in the EV space. Considering the performance and the fast-charging capabilities, the value for money is definitely there, and I’ve enjoyed most of my time behind the wheel. However, I’ve run into some build quality issues that have been quite disappointing for a vehicle of this caliber. Most notably, there is a persistent and very annoying squeaking sound that seems to be caused by rubber bushings rubbing against the body panels. In a car that is otherwise so quiet and refined, hearing that chirp really takes away from the premium feel I expected. I’m sharing this because I really like the platform you've built, but these assembly quirks make the car feel less durable than it should. I’d love to see these kinds of fit-and-finish issues addressed, as they are the only thing holding back an otherwise stellar EV.

An awesome EV that can still improve

This EV is excellent in so many ways and it would benefit from a much better sound system.

Error-prone infrared driver attention system keeps it from 5 stars

Starting with the 2025 model year, Hyundai replaced the driver attention warning from being pressure on the steering wheel to an infrared camera that watches your eyes. The infrared solution does not work well. It cannot handle certain types of glasses and if your hands get in the way of the camera, all of the driver assist features will turn off (which actually INCREASE the danger). Furthermore, on windy roads, where you are looking ahead a little bit, the camera will think that you're not paying attention and again turn off adaptive cruise control and/or lane-keeping assist. Furthermore, the not-yet-resolved ICCU issues always make me a little nervous that I'm going to get stranded.

Outstanding automobile

We are in love with our Ioniq 5. It is quiet, comfortable, fast and safe. While there have been reported issues with the ICCU and other components, we have not had any issues. The range is outstanding as is the onboard safety and convenienct tech.
