2024 Hyundai IONIQ 5: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The most important change for the 2024 Hyundai IONIQ 5 is stronger standard safety equipment, including rear side airbags and steering-wheel vibration warnings for lane-keeping and blind-spot alerts. This is otherwise a light-update year rather than a redesign.
About the 2024 Hyundai IONIQ 5
1st generation (2022-2024 pre-refresh), third U.S. model year
Hyundai positions the IONIQ 5 as a spacious, easy-to-live-with electric crossover built around very fast DC charging, a long wheelbase, and a flat-floor cabin. Its distinctive pixel-inspired design separates it from more conventional electric SUVs, while reclining and sliding rear seating supports family use. The model’s strongest everyday differentiators are quick charging, a comfortable ride, practical interior space, and straightforward controls.
The 2024 lineup ranges from the commuter-focused SE Standard Range to larger-battery SE and SEL models with rear-wheel drive or dual-motor AWD. Limited emphasizes comfort and technology with ventilated front seats, a panoramic glass roof, surround-view cameras, and a digital rearview mirror. The 1,000-unit Disney100 Platinum Edition pairs 320-hp dual-motor AWD with permanent Disney cabin details and a themed startup sequence.
