Making a sequel anywhere as good as the original is a difficult task, so thankfully when Hyundai went about refreshing its smash-hit Ioniq 5, it didn’t muck up the electric crossover’s winning original formula. When the Ioniq 5 first hit the market just two years ago in 2022, it was praised for its distinctive styling, daring interior design, and all-around usability. The 2025 update retains much of those traits while adding battery capacity, more standard features, the new Tesla-style North American Charging Standard (NACS) port which allows access to the full Supercharger network, and a frankly hideous wanna-be off-road trim. Though details are slim as of now, this facelift will likely make this already appealing EV even more so. - Logan Carter Read More
