The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is a battery electric compact crossover SUV produced by Hyundai since 2021. It is the first product to be marketed under the electric cars-focused Ioniq sub-brand, and the first model developed on the Hyundai Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP). The SE has the same features but with the larger battery pack and more powerful electric motor. Models with AWD also have a heat pump that works to more efficiently heat the cabin. The Ioniq 5 was developed under the project code NE as the first vehicle to be based on the E-GMP platform. The dedicated electric vehicle platform enables the vehicle to adopt a fully flat interior floor with a 3-meter long wheelbase. The flat floor allows Hyundai engineers to develop a sliding front central console, which is able to slide backwards by 140 mm ( in). It has a cargo capacity of 531 L ( cu ft) behind the rear seats that can be increased to nearly 1,600 L ( cu ft) with the second row seats folded. The rear legroom space was achieved by making the front seats approximately 30 percent thinner than typical seats. The dashboard of the Ioniq 5 is made up of two 12 in (300 mm) screens, one for the instrument cluster display and the other for the infotainment system, both under one piece of glass. It is equipped with an optional head-up display with augmented reality support. Many of the interior parts are made from recycled materials, including PET bottles. The Ioniq 5 can be optioned with a single large glass panel roof without any support beams. The Ioniq 5 also features a front trunk, which has a 57 L ( cu ft) capacity for the RWD version (except North America), while the AWD model and all North American versions have a 24 L ( cu ft) capacity, due to the extra mechanical components underneath to support the front electric motor. It has the ability to charge electrical equipment through the built-in V2L (Vehicle to Load) function.
