The IONIQ V was developed entirely by Hyundai's China Design Centre. Designed for the Chinese and wider Asian markets, it is also set to be exported to global markets.

Sleek fastback styling

The IONIQ V features a low-slung fastback profile, with wide proportions that give it a sporty, low-to-the-ground stance.

Along the sides, it features frameless doors and V-Motion alloy wheels, while the rear features a Dimensional Star Track full-width taillight.

Dimensions:

• Length: 4,900 mm
• Width: 1,890 mm
• Height: 1,470 mm
• Wheelbase: 2,900 mm

Smart cabin and powertrain

The IONIQ V is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 chip, along with two AI large language models for in-car functions and interaction.

It also comes with Momenta's intelligent driving assistance system, supporting Level 2+ assisted driving.

The IONIQ V is built on Hyundai's E-GMP platform and is available with two powertrain options: pure-electric (EV) and range-extender (REEV).
