Hyundai Ioniq 5 is one of the top-selling electric cars in the US with a distinguished design and a great price-to-range ratio. This car can be charged from 10% to 80% in 18 minutes with a 350kW ultra-fast charger and in around 3 hours at home if you have a Level 2 charger set up.
One of the first things you’ll want to consider when purchasing an EV is the vehicle’s battery. Powering the motor, the battery is what ultimately gets you where you need to go. So what are the battery capabilities of the Hyundai Ioniq 5?
Range: the range of an EV is the distance it can travel on a single charge. The Hyundai Ioniq 5 58kWh battery pack is estimated to provide 220 miles of range. The 77kWh pack is rated at 266 miles with dual motors and 303 miles with a single motor.
Voltage: with most EV battery systems ranging from 200 to 800 volts, the Hyundai Ioniq 5’s battery pack has an operating voltage of 800V! This is one of the first production vehicles with an 800V architecture which makes Level 3 charging much faster
Composition: the Hyundai Ioniq 5’s battery has 12 lithium-ion pouch cells per module, providing 2.42kWh per module and over 200Wh per cell. There are up to 32 modules per pack
Charging time is ultimately dependent upon the type of charger used. There are three types of EV chargers - level 1, level 2, and level 3. Level 1 chargers come with your electric vehicle and plug into the typical 120-volt outlet. Level 2 chargers, on the other hand, plug into 240-volt outlets and require installation. They ultimately add up to 30 miles of range per hour of charge when compared to level 1 chargers. Level 3 chargers (also known as DC fast chargers) can charge the average EV in as little as 30 minutes. However, Level 3 chargers are mainly built for public use - they require an enormous amount of available electricity in the grid, considerable investment in grid infrastructure, and are impractical for home use.
Here are rough charge times for the Hyundai Ioniq 5 on each of the aforementioned charger types from 20% - 80% charge.
Much like charging times, the cost to charge the Hyundai Ioniq 5 will have to consider a few factors. Rates will vary for home charging based on utility and location. Charging at some public stations is free. Although, more often than not, public chargers will come at a cost with a surcharge or premium placed on electric rates.
That being said, on average, the standard-range Hyundai Ioniq 5 will cost $4.18 for a full charge at home. In states like California, Florida, New York, or Ohio charging your car at a public fast-charging location would cost you $14.96 and in states like Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Kentucky, and Georgia - $11.14. Charing your car at home only will save you on average $750 a year.
When you purchase the 2022 IONIQ 5, you get two years of unlimited 30-minute complimentary charging sessions at Electrify America's network of DC fast chargers.
The Ioniq 5’s onboard charger can accept 11 kW, which is a nice Level 2 setup on a 240V outlet with a 48A charger. However, this is a slightly more expensive and complicated installation that requires hardwired installation. You can also install a 40A charger with 9.4kW that can be plugged into the NEMA14-50 outlet, and easily removed or replaced.
