Hyundai Ioniq 5

great...what was the exterior color(white?) ours executive still not arrived in Dublin :( ....yours dublin or elsewhere ?

Down for executive ourselves and neither of us were mad on the dimples on the exec plus we saw in the dealers either, so if they got dropped as in those pictures, it would be a nice upgrade in our view.

Be interested in any other pics of interior of executive when people see it. Won't see ours til Feb!

Yeah went digging for UK spec picture myself. But hard to follow because the pricing seems so different and they have all sorts of option packs which even the exec appears to come with.

Also seems a lot of UK customers very excited by lack of automatic handles. 😕 😆

Executive 58kWh.

Pity it was dark, but looks very well in real life. And more important, Swimbo loves her new car.😍.

Doesn't feel cheap, plenty of soft touch on dash and other touch points (Except rear door armrests). Seats look well and comfy. LED headlights seem powerful, with bright interior LEDs.

May well be second week in Jan before we can collect, so many cars before us. And paint treatment will take a few days.

Sorry pics a bit large, but handy for picking up detail..

Very nice! Great pictures!! Thanks for sending them!

I'll be getting same car also in Waterford except cyber grey!

Thanks, saw what looked like a cyber grey Executive in front car park. Ours apparently will be going to lockup around back but they have run out of room there according to Brian so some will be able to be inspected over the holiday period at front.

Anyone with executive going to get rear windows tinted? Going to go for the privacy glass look in the rear. Think it makes a big difference to car.

Looking for somewhere to do it in Dublin if anyone has recommendations.

White probably would not have been my choice on a big car, but it is practical, easily seen in poor weather and cooler in the summer. Also generally looks well when a little dirty. Darker colours have to be kept very clean to look their best and show every little scratch and swirl mark.

Swimbo liked the keyless entry, not the fancy type where the door handles open out for you. You just press on the handle to unlock/lock car and mirrors open out. She prefers to her present Ioniq which folds out mirrors every time you walk by car with keys in your pocket. Also handy having app and wireless phone charging.

The black cladding is so much better looking than the silver. Pity it’s not an option on the higher specs.

The only design part I would not be fond is the plastic trim beneath the headlights. Is that illuminated in higher spec models ?

Does anyone know for premium plus that the handles open out automatically or manual? I heard UK cars only came with manual handles.

As far as I could see after being in an Executive Plus earlier and an Executive when almost dark, the two are the same with the plastics. (Seats are different material). There is a combination of hard and soft plastic, entirely hard on back doors. Quality doesn't feel great if you go tapping, but most of dash feels fair quality as do other touch points. Centre console (Doesn't slide on Executive, but does on Executive Plus) is entirely hard plastic except for the armrest. But all look ok. The basic one is not very premium, but perfectly acceptable for it's price point as an EV, IMO.

There were only 3 colours available to us when we ordered, white, black and galactic grey. White was the cheapest, can't remember how much. There is also a "free" colour, a flat olive I think but not sure if that is being imported..

The dimples on the exec plus seats are purely there as you have heated front seats and the dimples allow the heat to pass through material easier. So it's part and parcel if you want that luxury.

Ill say again that I can't believe Hyundai haven't configured an option with the black outside trim and full leather interior, like so many other countries seem to have done based on vid reviews. .

Yes, on premium and premium plus this is illuminated
