The IONIQ 5 by Hyundai has earned the title of Best Electric Vehicle in Cars.com’s 2023 Best of Awards, surpassing all other 2023 EVs evaluated by the company’s team of expert car reviewers. The IONIQ 5 stands out due to its innovative Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), providing ample interior space and superior performance. After evaluating multiple vehicles, the IONIQ 5 emerged as the winner among the three finalists for the 2023 Best Electric Vehicle Award.
“During a time when many consumers are contemplating their first electric vehicle, Hyundai’s IONIQ 5 checks all the boxes,” said Ricky Lao, director, product planning, Hyundai Motor North America. “The IONIQ 5’s ultra-fast 800-volt multi-charging (10 to 80 percent in 18 minutes), and Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function that is able to power small appliances, devices and even charge other EVs, are attractive features to buyers.”
“Hyundai’s IONIQ 5 stands out as a well-rounded all-electric SUV, which is why it’s Cars.com’s Best Electric Vehicle of 2023,” says Jenni Newman, Cars.com editor-in-chief. “The IONIQ 5 is an excellent choice for first-time EV shoppers interested in making the jump to EV ownership as well as seasoned EV owners. Here’s what makes the IONIQ 5 a winner: It’s easy to drive with many of the familiar controls of a traditional gas-powered vehicle; it has a spacious, airy interior that’s large enough for families; and its taller profile offers good outward visibility. The 800-volt architecture allows drivers to add miles of range faster than most other mainstream EVs when using a 350-kilowatt DC fast charger, which will ease the minds of the range-anxious.”
