Fresh on the market and already a true winner: Hyundai Motor\u2019s IONIQ 5 has won a 2022 German Car of the Year (GCOTY) award in the \u201cNew Energy\u201d category. As a class winner, the automaker\u2019s full-electric midsize CUV will automatically take part in the final round of the GCOTY.<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n

IONIQ 5 will compete against the winners of the \u201cCompact\u201d, \u201cPremium\u201d, \u201cLuxury\u201d and \u201cPerformance\u201d categories. The overall winner will be announced on November 25, 2021.<\/p>\n

At the GCOTY awards, an internationally networked jury of 20 motoring journalists tested and evaluated the most important new automotive releases of the year in terms of product features, relevance and future viability.<\/p>\n

\u201cIONIQ 5 is the start of the new Hyundai era, as it rediscovers our roots by reinterpreting the DNA of the first Hyundai \u2013 the Pony \u2013 to project our brand into the future,\u201d said Luc Donckerwolke, Chief Creative Officer at Hyundai Motor Group. \u201cIt is the first car designed from inside-out, made possible by the innovative flat floor offered by our new dedicated Electric Global Modular Platform. IONIQ 5\u2019s \u2018New Energy\u2019 award proves that Hyundai is producing models that care for customers through all the phases of their electric journey.\u201d<\/p>\n

IONIQ 5\u2019s overall package did not only convince the German Car of the Year jury, where it prevailed against competitors such as the BMW iX and the Mercedes-Benz EQS, in addition, it is also very popular with customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cIONIQ 5 advancing to the final round of the German Car of the Year after securing a win in the \u2018New Energy\u2019 category proves that our fully-electric midsize CUV is a leader in the European car market,\u201d says Andreas-Christoph Hofmann, Vice President Marketing and Product at Hyundai Motor Europe. \u201cIONIQ 5 is an essential part of our electrification strategy. This further success underlines our company\u2019s strength in zero-emission mobility.\u201d<\/p>\n

IONIQ 5: a new era of electric mobility<\/strong><\/p>\n

IONIQ 5 is the first model of Hyundai\u2019s new IONIQ brand dedicated to EVs. It is based on the Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) developed by Hyundai Motor Group specifically for battery-electric vehicles. E-GMP enables IONIQ 5 to have unique proportions on an elongated wheelbase.<\/p>\n

Customers of IONIQ 5 can choose from two battery sizes \u2013 58 kWh and 72.6 kWh \u2013 and all-wheel or rear-wheel drive. Depending on the configuration, Hyundai\u2019s midsize CUV achieves a system output of up to 225 kW and offers a maximum driving range of up to 481 kilometers on a single charge, according to the WLTP standard.<\/p>\n

Unique to the segment is the BEV\u2019s 800-volt technology, which allows both battery options to charge from 10 to 80 percent of their capacity within 18 minutes at ultra-fast charging stations. In addition, the model\u2019s Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function ensures customers can freely use or charge any electrical equipment, such as notebooks or e-scooters.<\/p>\n
