2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 price and specs: EV gets new tech, sporty N Line trim

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 has received a substantial update, with new batteries, a stiffer chassis, upgraded tech, and a freshened look.

The update also brings with it a $2300 price increase across the range, with the Ioniq 5 lineup now opening at $69,800 before on-road costs.

This follows a price increase of $2500 for 2024, coinciding with Hyundai Australia allowing the Ioniq 5 to be ordered through more than 100 of its dealerships.

The 53kWh Standard Range battery has been replaced by a 63kWh unit, while the Ioniq 5 N’s 84kWh battery replaces the 77kWh unit in Extended Range models.

The bigger batteries allow the Ioniq 5 to go longer on a single charge, with the base Standard Range for example now offering 440km of range on the WLTP cycle, up from 384km.

You can view the battery specifications in the Efficiency section below, including how much range has improved by for each configuration.

Hyundai says it has upgraded body reinforcements in the B-/C-pillar and door surrounds, rear wheelhouse and underbody crossbar to increase body stiffness.

It says these changes have resulted in reduced noise, vibration and harshness, as well as enhanced body control and stability and improved steering response and feedback.

All models get a revised front bumper and skid plate, as well as flat aluminium badging.

Down back, there’s a revised bumper, rear spoiler, and the addition of a window wiper.

There are new 19- and 20-inch alloy wheel designs for the base and Dynamiq versions, while the Epiq gets projector LED headlights with Hyundai’s Intelligent Front Lighting System.

A new N Line option package ($2500) brings unique front and rear bumpers and exclusive 20-inch alloy wheels, as well as gloss black mirror caps, body-coloured cladding and wheel arches, and a “unique hidden lighting signature”.

Inside, the N Line gets eco-processed leather and Alcantara upholstery in black, as well as an N Line-exclusive ‘semi-punched’ leather-wrapped steering wheel, metal pedals, and various red accents.

All Ioniq 5 models feature a revised centre console which Hyundai says allows occupants to easily access new physical controls for seat heating and ventilation.

There’s also a revised steering wheel, instrument cluster bezel, and upholstery.

The headline interior change is the introduction of Hyundai’s Connected Car Next-Generation Cockpit (ccNC), its latest generation of infotainment.

This brings wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as Bluelink connected vehicle services. It also has over-the-air update capability.

The Ioniq 5 still uses dual 12.3-inch screens for the infotainment system and digital instrument cluster.

The base model drops its two-tone cloth upholstery for a combination of black wool and eco-processed leather, while eco-processed black leather is standard on the Dynamiq and Epiq.

If you like the lighter look of the old car, however, you can still get a light-coloured interior as a no-cost option. Hyundai offers both Dove Grey/Dark Teal and Dove Grey/Dark Pebble Grey colourways.

The Ioniq 5 gets the latest version of Hyundai’s autonomous emergency braking, Highway Driving Assist, and Remote Smart Parking Assist systems, as well as navigation-based adaptive cruise control.
