In the last few years,
Hyundai
has really upped its game. Through its own brand and Kia, the South Korean car company quickly shook off its past “cheap and boring” reputation and replaced it with luxury appeal while maintaining its reasonable prices.
As it heads into its
electric vehicle future
, the automaker is doubling down on its new direction, and all that new curb appeal is on full display in the new 2022 IONIQ 5—especially in its interior.

The 2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 interior is borderline luxurious

When you’re looking for a
new car
, one of the trickiest decisions to make in the process is often the trim level. Personal history, reviews, and test drives can help you narrow down makes and models. But how do you choose between trims like SE Standard Range, SE, SEL, and Limited?
Hyundai makes it easy by putting nearly everything in a sleek package for its most basic version of the IONIQ 5. Each trim has the same display screen, leather-wrapped steering wheel, and access to Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Sirius XM, and BlueLink.
Of course, the Limited trim offers access to a long list of tech, seating, and entertainment upgrades. But these add-ons all boost the price of the top trim.

The real difference between IONIQ 5 trims: powertrain performance

All this good news about the 2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5’s interior immediately stirs up a few questions: if every
trim level
comes with the same beautiful interior, why are there separate trim levels at all? And why is there a $10,000 price difference between the bottom and the top? The answers is in each model’s motors, battery, and charging capacity. 
The SE comes with Hyundai’s basic powertrain, a 125kW motor and a 58kWh lithium-ion battery that offers a maximum range of 220 miles. 
The higher
IONIQ 5
trims offer more. Both come with a 77.4kWh battery. A 168kW motor pushes the Preferred Long Range along, offering over 300 miles of range, while the AWD model is powered by dual motors that bring the maximum range down to about 269 miles. 

Is the 2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 a good EV option?

Prices for electric cars are still higher on average than gas-powered vehicles, but for an EV with reliable range that doesn’t skimp out on interior features, the 2022 Hyundai IONIQ 5 is hard to argue against.
The experts seem to love it, too.
Car and Driver
gave it an 8.5 out of 10, and YouTube sensation Doug Demuro says the cars possible 10-80% charging time of under 20 minutes puts it well ahead of its competors.
Kelley Blue Book
even gave it the ‘World Car of the Year’ award.
