Hyundai says the Ioniq 5 will pack either a 58kWh or 72.6kWh battery. In all-wheel drive dual-motor configuration with the 72.6kWh pack, the powertrain produces 225kW/605Nm, enough to hit 100kmh in 5.2 seconds. Moving to a rear-drive configuration results in power outputs of 160kW/350Nm and a 0100kmh sprint of 7.4 seconds.

The Ioniq 5’s interior is an impressively high-quality effort. Using the 58kWh battery, power outputs for AWD models is 173kW/605Nm or 160kW/350Nm for RWD models. Performance times are 6.1 seconds and 8.5 seconds respectively. Using the larger battery pack but ditching one of the motors nets a maximum range of around 480km, according to WLTP. This is the only range claim Hyundai is making at the moment.
