Home and Destination Charging (0 -> 100%)

Charging is possible by using a regular wall plug or a charging station. Public charging is always done through a charging station. How fast the EV can charge depends on the charging station (EVSE) used and the maximum charging capacity of the EV. The table below shows all possible options for charging the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD. Each option shows how fast the battery can be charged from empty to full.

Europe

Charging an EV in Europe differs by country. Some European countries primarily use 1-phase connections to the grid, while other countries are almost exclusively using a 3-phase connection. The table below shows all possible ways the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD can be charged, but some modes of charging might not be widely available in certain countries.

† = Limited by on-board charger, vehicle cannot charge faster.

Fast Charging (10 -> 80%)

Rapid charging enables longer journeys by adding as much range as possible in the shortest amount of time. Charging power will decrease significantly after 80% state-of-charge has been reached. A typical rapid charge therefore rarely exceeds 80% SoC. The rapid charge rate of an EV depends on the charger used and the maximum charging power the EV can handle. The table below shows all details for rapid charging the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD.

  • Max. Power: maximum power provided by charge point
  • Avg. Power: average power provided by charge point over a session from 10% to 80%
  • Time: time needed to charge from 10% to 80%

About this Vehicle

Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD Overview

The Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD is positioned as a premium yet attainable Hyundai electric SUV, sitting at the heart of the family EV market. Built on Hyundai’s dedicated E-GMP platform, it targets buyers who want a spacious, futuristic crossover with long range, rapid charging, and everyday usability that rivals or beats many legacy premium brands. As more shoppers search for detailed EV specs and real-world usability, the IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD stands out as one of the most rounded options in its class.

For drivers cross-shopping Tesla, Kia and European alternatives, this Hyundai IONIQ 5 review highlights its blend of generous interior space, sliding rear bench, flat floor and clever storage that make it a compelling family car. The sharp, pixel-inspired design gives it a distinctive identity, while advanced safety tech and driver assistance underline its modern character. This model matters in the EV landscape because it combines long electric vehicle range, ultra-fast charging and a competitive price, helping to push mainstream adoption of larger battery electric SUVs without premium-brand pricing.

Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD Performance and Driving Experience

The IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD uses a single rear-mounted motor producing 168 kW (225 hp) and 350 Nm (258 lb-ft) of torque, delivering smooth, instant acceleration that feels stronger than the numbers suggest in daily driving. It reaches 0–60 mph in about 7.4 seconds (0–100 km/h in 7.5 s), which is more than enough for confident overtakes and highway on-ramps while still prioritizing efficiency over outright performance. The rear-wheel-drive layout gives it a natural, balanced feel and a tight turning circle for city use.

On the road, the long 3,000 mm wheelbase and relatively soft suspension tuning make the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD comfortable and composed, especially on the highway. Steering is light but accurate, and the low center of gravity from the underfloor battery helps reduce body roll. Multiple regen levels and one-pedal driving add to the refined, electric-first driving experience.

Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD Range and Battery Specifications

The Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD is built around a lithium-ion polymer battery with 84 kWh gross and 80 kWh usable capacity. On the WLTP cycle, it is rated between 515–570 km (320–354 miles) depending on equipment, making it one of the longest-range options in the midsize electric SUV class. In U.S. EPA testing with the big pack and rear-wheel drive, the IONIQ 5 achieves an estimated 318 miles of range, aligning closely with the higher WLTP figure.

Real-world range for the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD typically falls between 320 and 400 km (200–250 miles) in mixed driving, but can exceed 500 km in efficient, mild-weather motorway use according to independent EV range tests. Energy consumption is rated around 16–17.2 kWh/100 km on WLTP, equating to strong efficiency for a spacious crossover. As with any EV, actual range varies with speed, temperature, use of climate control, driving style and terrain.

Range Metric Value
WLTP Range 320–354 miles / 515–570 km
EPA Range (RWD long range) 318 miles / ~512 km
Real-World Range ~200–250 miles / ~320–400 km (typical mixed)
Battery Capacity 80.0 kWh (usable)

Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD Charging Times and Options

At home, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD supports up to 11 kW AC via its onboard charger. On a typical 7 kW residential wallbox, a full charge from near empty takes roughly 11–12 hours, while an 11 kW three-phase setup can complete a full charge in about 8 hours. Level 1 (120V) charging is possible but very slow, best reserved for emergencies or overnight top-ups when other options aren’t available.

Where the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD really shines is DC fast charging. On an 800-volt capable high-power charger, it can accept up to 240–260 kW, enabling a 10–80% charge in roughly 18–20 minutes in optimal conditions. Hyundai quotes up to 178 miles of range added in about 15 minutes on a 350 kW charger for RWD trims. The car uses the CCS standard, making it compatible with major fast-charging networks and well suited for long-distance travel.

Charging Method Time Speed
Level 1 (120V) ~60–70 hours (0–100%) ~1–1.4 kW
Level 2 (240V/7kW) ~11–12 hours (0–100%) ~7 kW
Level 2 (240V/11kW) ~8 hours (0–100%) ~11 kW
DC Fast Charge (10-80%) ~18–20 min up to 240–260 kW

Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD vs Competitors

In a Hyundai IONIQ 5 vs Tesla Model Y comparison, the Hyundai undercuts many Model Y trims on price while offering comparable range, faster peak DC charging and a more refined ride, though Tesla still leads in software ecosystem and Supercharger network. Against the Kia EV6, which shares the E-GMP platform, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD focuses more on comfort and space, while the EV6 skews sportier. Versus the Volkswagen ID.4 or Audi Q4 e-tron, Hyundai’s 800V architecture, ultra-fast charging and distinctive design give it a clear technology edge, making this IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD one of the most compelling electric SUVs in the segment.

Frequently Asked Questions

In real-world mixed driving, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD typically delivers around 320–400 km (200–250 miles) per charge, depending on speed, temperature, terrain and climate control use, with gentle driving in mild weather able to stretch it further.

On a 7 kW home wallbox, a full charge takes about 11–12 hours, or around 8 hours on an 11 kW AC supply. Using a compatible 350 kW DC fast charger, the IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD can go from 10–80% in roughly 18–20 minutes, adding over 170 miles of range in the process.

This specific model is rear-wheel drive (RWD) with a single motor on the rear axle. Hyundai also offers dual-motor all-wheel-drive (AWD) variants of the IONIQ 5 with higher power output, but the 84 kWh RWD prioritizes range and efficiency.

Hyundai’s Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) system in the IONIQ 5 allows the car’s high-voltage battery to power external devices via interior and optional exterior outlets. It can run items like laptops, camping gear, power tools or even charge another EV, effectively turning the IONIQ 5 into a mobile power bank.

Compared with a Tesla Model Y RWD or Long Range, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD offers similar or slightly lower range but faster peak DC charging, a more comfortable ride and a more premium-feeling cabin. The Tesla counters with stronger software integration, a larger fast-charging network and often better efficiency at highway speeds.

Yes, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD is widely regarded as an excellent electric SUV, combining long range, ultra-fast 800V charging, a spacious and versatile interior, strong standard safety tech and competitive pricing. Downsides include less aggressive performance than AWD versions and some sensitivity of range to high-speed driving and cold weather.> The Hyundai IONIQ 5 84 kWh RWD is a midsize electric SUV from Hyundai offering up to around 354 miles WLTP range, a usable 80 kWh battery and 225 hp rear-wheel-drive performance.
