Explore the design of the IONIQ 5.
Car design
IONIQ 5 reflects a pure and innovative take on electric vehicles. Inspired by the futuristic design of the electric vehicle, the sleek sensuality of the IONIQ 5 is a homage to Hyundai’s design heritage, reimagined for the future.
A new mobility experience for the next generation—this was the mission from the first day we began this project.
Exterior
Distinctive. Iconic. Pure.
IONIQ 5’s pure design is a refreshing take on electric vehicles, stripping away complexity to celebrate clean lines and minimalistic structures. The unique clamshell bonnet spans the entire width of the car, minimising panel gaps for a clean, high-tech look. The LED lighting showcases its signature Parametric Pixels – unique jewel-like design elements that will feature on the exterior of all future IONIQ models.

Active air intakes.
The active air flap integrated in the front bumper enhances the high-tech look in the front as well as improving energy efficiency when closed – and cooling vehicle parts as needed when open. -
Clamshell bonnet.
Smooth and seamless design with a strong focus on minimalism. Hyundai's first-ever clamshell bonnet spans the entire width of the car, minimising panel gaps for a clean, high-tech look. -
Front bumper.
The front bumper is defined by an eye-catching V-shape – its diagonal creases are a high-tech interpretation of our Sensuous Sportiness design language for maximum energy and a sense of abundant volume. -
Distinctive Z-shaped graphic.
The IONIQ 5’s precisely modelled surfaces and shapes give it an angular, almost geometric appearance. The front and rear forms join together at its doors, creating a dynamic Z-shaped graphic. -
Dynamic profile.
The sporty silhouette, with its short bonnet lines and slick roof line, also features a steeply sloped C-pillar – imparting a feeling of speed that is reinforced by the dynamic window frame moulding. -
Flush door handles.
Sleek and aerodynamic, the flush-style door handles enhance the IONIQ 5's high-tech aerodynamic. Touch sensors release the hidden door handles for use. -
Slice rear reflector.
Inspired by long-loved electronic products, the slice rear reflectors add an eye-catching touch to the rear of the IONIQ 5. -
Aerodynamic spoiler.
The rear spoiler is a further reflection of Hyundai’s Sensuous Sportiness design philosophy, adding sporty sensibilities with the help of aerodynamics. -
Alloy wheels.
The wheels of the vehicle have been designed with aerodynamics in mind, resulting in a seamless integration with the overall aesthetic.
Colours.
Choose from a variety of exterior colours, including nature-inspired hues exclusive to the IONIQ 5 and options available with a matte finish.
The power of choice.
Interior
Live, drive, work, relax.
Inside the IONIQ 5, the lines between living space and moving space are being blurred. Our new Electric Vehicle platform gave us the opportunity to re-create the interior as a whole new in-car experience. A larger flat floor, highly adjustable front seats that can be fully reclined, and a flexible centre console that can be moved throughout the cabin, make for an extraordinary experience.
Sustainability
Innovative use of environmentally friendly materials.
Environmentally friendly materials, like eco-processed leather and recycled yarn, are used extensively in the IONIQ 5. What’s more, raw materials extracted from sugar cane are used on the headliner, carpet and seat covers. A solution that is both recyclable and beautiful. The innovative use of natural materials contributes towards sustainability in our manufacturing processes, making the IONIQ 5 less reliant on oil-based products.
Using recycled PET bottles can inspire people to think about how products that are easily thrown away could be turned into something new. Of course, it would be better if PET bottles didn’t exist at all.
Calling you to create a more sustainable world.
The engineers and designers who developed the IONIQ 5 felt called to do whatever they could to make a change in the world. The use of environmentally friendly and natural materials, for example, makes the IONIQ 5 less reliant on oil-based products. It's your turn now.
