The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is Hyundai's flagship battery-electric vehicle in India, built on the dedicated Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) that enables ultra-fast 800V charging architecture and a spacious, flat-floor cabin. Originally launched in India in 2022, the model has now received a significant 2026 facelift that introduces subtle exterior revisions — including a redesigned front bumper with new skid plates and refreshed alloy wheels — alongside meaningful mechanical upgrades.
The headline change for the 2026 facelift is the move to a larger 84 kWh battery pack, up from the previous 72 kWh unit. Hyundai claims a certified ARAI range of up to 690 km on a single charge (claimed), a substantial improvement over its predecessor. The facelift also brings updated interior features and technology refinements, keeping the Ioniq 5 competitive in the premium EV segment.
Priced at ₹55.70 lakh (ex-showroom, pan-India) for the 2026 facelift, the Ioniq 5 commands a significant premium over its previous iteration but positions itself as a feature-rich, long-range option for buyers seeking a globally acclaimed EV with a strong service network in India. Its retro-futuristic design language, roomy interior, and rapid charging capability continue to set it apart in the Indian premium EV space.
