Is the Hyundai Ioniq 5 all new in 2025?
Yes, Hyundai Ioniq 5 isn’t completely redesigned for 2025, but it does get some significant updates. The big news is the N version I drove, which is a brand-new, high-performance addition with go-fast upgrades and a unique style. For the rest of the lineup, there’s a larger battery for better range, new driver-assist features, updated styling, and a rugged XRT trim. While the overall design is familiar, these changes make it feel fresh for 2025.

What engine comes with the Hyundai Ioniq 5?
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is fully electric, offering different motor and battery configurations. The standard Ioniq 5 comes with a single rear motor producing 168 or 225 horsepower, or a dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup with 320 horsepower. The high-performance Ioniq 5 N features dual motors making 601 horsepower, which boosts to 641 horsepower with N Grin Boost, and can hit 60 mph in about 3.3 seconds.
Battery options include a 63.0-kWh pack with up to 245 miles of range or an 84.0-kWh pack, which provides 318 miles in the single-motor configuration and 259–290 miles with all-wheel drive. The Ioniq 5 N, optimized for performance, has an EPA-estimated range of 221 miles and supports DC fast charging at up to 238 kW.
What are the interior features of the HYUNDAI Ioniq 5?
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N’s interior feels familiar if you’ve been in the regular model, but it adds some performance-focused touches. The bolstered front seats keep you secure during sharp cornering, and the unique steering wheel features buttons for drive modes, regenerative braking, and the N Grin Boost. The Ioniq 5 also includes a tech-forward cabin with a fully digital dashboard, eco-friendly materials, and an optional head-up display with augmented reality that projects navigation directions directly onto the windshield.
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N features the same 12.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system and 12.0-inch digital gauge cluster as the regular model. The touchscreen serves as the hub for entertainment and connectivity, offering voice-recognition software along with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, though smartphone integration requires a wired connection. Hyundai emphasizes the Ioniq sub-brand’s focus on connected living, and the N model keeps that theme with its innovative tech.
How does the HYUNDAI Ioniq 5 N Drive?
I have two perspectives to answer this question:
As a fairly tall, family man, its is surprisingly practical for a high-performance EV. I have three kids—two in boosters—and it fit them comfortably with no complaints. It’s nice to have a car that delivers excitement while still handling family duties with ease.
As a car enthusiast, absolutely thrilling to drive. The simulated engine sounds and gear shifts are so immersive that you forget they’re not real. It’s fast, responsive, and a ton of fun—Hyundai nailed the driving experience.
Final thoughts.
This is truly breaking barriers in the electric market by combining practicality with true high-performance driving. It’s proof that EVs can deliver the excitement and engagement car enthusiasts crave while still being functional enough for a family of five. I can see it appealing to performance enthusiasts who are curious about EVs. Hyundai has created something special with the Ioniq 5 N.
