More stability towing
IONIQ 5’s progressive design is not only good at turning heads – it also makes the car perfect for towing. Built upon Hyundai Motor Group’s dedicated Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), and measuring 4,635-mm long, 1,890-mm wide and 1,605-mm tall on a 3,000-mm wheelbase, it ensures a low, wide stance and the ideal centre of gravity for superior stability when towing.
E-GMP also enables a flat floor allowing for innovative interior design and extra legroom. With the spaciousness of a large passenger car in a midsize CUV, IONIQ 5 will ensure occupants arrive in the great outdoors relaxed and fully attuned with their surroundings.
Adaptive range by push of a button
For drivers experiencing zero-emissions electric travel when towing for the first time, IONIQ 5 offers a feature that enables them to better plan their road trips. Using its telematics system, customers can set the weight category of their trailer and the expected driving range will be adapted accordingly even before the road trip begins. This means IONIQ 5 owners can plan their next charging stop ahead of time.
Ultra-fast charging for more quality time
long before continuing on to their destination. With a 350-kW charger, IONIQ 5 can charge from 10 per cent to 80 per cent in just 18 minutes, while a short five-minute charge can add up to 100 kilometres of driving range (without a trailer), according to WLTP.
Of course, charging time can also be used as an opportunity to take a break from the vehicle’s interior. You might not want to, however, given that IONIQ 5’s spacious, customisable interior really is a home away from home. Its electronically adjustable front seats recline to the optimum angle, offering a luxurious feeling of weightlessness and the perfect opportunity to lay back, relax and even take a nap.
Vehicle-to-Load makes it a power bank on wheels
One of the trump cards that IONIQ 5 holds when it comes to providing customers with the ultimate freedom to explore is its innovative Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function, which essentially makes it a large power bank on wheels – and an optimum accessory when off-grid and out in the wild. With a V2L port under the rear seats that can be activated when the vehicle is on and one in the exterior charging port (using the supplied converter, even when the vehicle is turned off) that supply up to 3.6 kW of power, this function can be used to charge and power practically anything, from a smartphone or laptop whilst on the go, to a coffee machine, eBike and even an entire caravan.
Thanks to V2L, the environmental impact of an on-road adventure can be reduced even further. It can be used to power a cooking hob, plate, and griddle, eliminating the need to use gas, coal or wood when cooking and ensuring the road trip stays virtually 100 per cent emissions-free.
Camp Zero powered by IONIQ 5
To demonstrate the possibilities to drive completely electrically and emission-free, this month Hyundai launched Camp Zero powered by IONIQ 5 in Sweden – an all-electric combination of Hyundai's award-winning electric car and a minimally designed caravan. Featuring the MINK Camper, an aerodynamic, lightweight caravan, Camp Zero provides everything needed for adventures and the ultimate camping experience, including all the electrical amenities, which are of course powered by IONIQ 5 through V2L.
Boasting a streamlined design and a net weight of only 520 kg, the MINK Camper is equipped with electrical amenities such as an induction plate, espresso machine, kettle, electric fridge/freezer, speaker system and even light loops to set the right mood on a summer’s night. Like IONIQ 5, it offers built-in 230V and USB sockets so campers can connect and charge all conceivable equipment, no matter how far into the wilderness they’ve ventured.
