WATT MATTERS?

The IONIQ 5 remains one of the most distinctive family EVs on Australian roads. Its angular hatchback-inspired design hides generous dimensions and a genuinely spacious cabin.

THE BASICS

A five-seat dedicated electric vehicle with multiple battery and drivetrain options. The high-performance IONIQ 5 N belongs to the same model family but has a very different brief from the everyday versions.

THE WATTCAR TAKE

The regular IONIQ 5 makes its case through design, space and fast-charging capability. The N proves electric performance can have character, but buyers should not confuse its priorities with the standard family car.
