THE Hyundai Ioniq 5 caused quite a stir when it arrived, and we crowned it our 2021 Car of the Year. Three years on, it’s still a distinctive family car, but prices are higher than they are for the Renault, with the Premium model – the entry point to the range – costing £46,495 with the 77kWh long-range battery. That’s £1,450 more than the highest-spec Scenic.
Tech highlights
THE Ioniq name was originally used by a forgettable hatchback that rivalled the Toyota Prius, but taking that badge and adding the 5 suffix was just the start of Hyundai’s path
