2023 Ioniq 5 Limited: Everything I Hoped For
I'm up there in age and this is my first electric vehicle so I was a bit apprehensive about purchasing it, especially since there were no demos available to test drive. That feeling changed almost immediately during my first drive when I found it to be extremely responsive, comfortable, and fun to drive. The first time you step on the accelerator and feel the immediate response you know this is going to be a fun vehicle. After a little experimenting I find the driving experience is definitely enhanced by the availability of the numerous Regenerative Braking System options; my personal favorites are the 1-pedal option and the Smart Recuperation System options, and feel they provide additional levels of control and safety. This vehicle is also loaded with useful Driver Assistance Systems, such as Navigation Based Smart Cruise Control and the Surround View Monitor... all of which provide high levels of safety and confidence. I particularly find the inclusion of the blind spot warning in the Heads Up Display to be extremely useful. Finally, the Ioniq 5 Limited has so much technology built in that it's going to take me months to discover it all and learn how to use it. However, after one month of ownership I know I made the right choice.
