2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5: New teasers…

Last Updated:

 

Not sure how close these official teasers are to the real thing. But if they are realistic, it would be quite amazing.
The shape and design details are just stunning in these pictures. Something you really almost never see on a production car.
I really hope this is an accurate preview of the real thing.
This is quite amazing so far.
Of course, Hyundai will market this as a crossover/SUV. Since everyone is afraid of calling anything a car these days.
Whatever they call it, it could look great.
No official specs yet. But recent rumors mention around 300hp and a 280 miles range. And 20-inch wheels available.
Which would be fine and would put it over the Kona Electric. 
The Kona EV starts at $37 000. Hyundai cannot really price the new Ioniq 5 much higher.
With new competition like the $40 000 VW ID 4 and the upcoming Nissan Aryia and Chevy Bolt EUV.
And especially, the hugely popular Tesla Model Y which now starts at around $42 000.

  1. The tiny 'mirrors' cameras seem to justify, at least for North American markets that this not the final product.
    Regulations should just allow it, were in 2021!

  2. Camera mirrors are allowed pretty much everywhere else. Honda and Audi have had them for a while. The teasers are probably showing the Euro version.
    These camera mirrors have been seen in spy shots of the Ioniq 5 for months.

  3. I hope this is the final product or at least close but i doubt it. Concerned it will be watered down and bland. Hope I'm wrong.

  4. This is not crossover, it's a car, and actually, I'm afraid to call everything I see a crossover, it's just ill to call every car a SUV. You know, it's a nice car, never calling it an SUV, it's a cool little hatchback, based on the pony, with an EV input, and looking sharp, that's it. But I'm just sick of crossovers, let's call it a car, ain't we? Actually, I think they'll market it anyway as a *Honda e rival*. Thanks Vince for such a clear images, I don't know how you actually make them lighter (I do, but it's just amazing all of your work!)

  6. Cameras are much worse in snow than real mirrors. Even if they heat it, the salt will not get cleared.

  8. Seriously interested in this one. I don't want yet another SUV. I want a larger hatchback that gives me over 400 km of range. Looking forward to the Ioniq 5 / Kia CV offereings !

  9. Exactly, and GM has the digital rearview mirror that has been in production for years now. The advancement in tech means those type of side mirrors will eventually be the norm. Why wouldn't Ioniq be the first to roll them out. Hyundai/Kia already has the blind spot cameras on some models that project in the gauge cluster, how hard would it be to just eliminate the mirror? Concepts have hinted at it for years as well.
