Hyundai Ioniq 5 is powerful and practical
A spacious, plush and practical interior further adds to the appeal of this family SUV. Last year's mild facelift was more about evolution than revolution, bringing about bigger batteries, an uptick in standard equipment, better sound insulation, and a heat pump on all variants. There are some aesthetically-pleasing changes too, such as a larger roof spoiler and some new wheel designs. The funky 20-inch alloy wheels were created exclusively for the new N Line version, tested here, to make a powerful statement. Hyundai offers plenty of choice within the Ioniq 5 range, with buyers able to choose between two battery sizes, rear or four-wheel drive and five trims. The car looks distinctive from all angles At the top sits the AWD 325. It has an 84kWh battery and adds a second electric motor on the front axle, making it four-wheel drive and giving a total of 321bhp. The 0-62mph time is 5.3 seconds, which feels pretty swift for a vehicle of this size, meaning straight line performance is a match for the dual-motor Kia EV6. You also get a fair old slab of torque, measuring in at a beefy 605Nm. However, the Ioniq 5 doesn't provide as sharp a driving experience as some key rivals when trying to progress along twisty and undulating B-roads. When cornering briskly, body control isn't the best and you're generally aware of the vehicle's weight when slowing and trying to set the vehicle up for a sharp turn, with the Ioniq 5 feeling a bit reluctant to make sudden changes of direction. Range-wise, the new batteries have added an extra layer of practicality. The interior is well laid-out Depending on the version you opt for, the official stats suggest you'll get suggest you'll get 273 miles for the RWD 170, up to 354 miles for RWD 228 and 311 miles for the AWD 325. In real-world driving conditions and admittedly making little attempt to preserve charge, the N Line S returned figures of between 220 and 250 miles between charges. When you do run low on battery, you'll find that charging speeds are pretty quick. With speeds of up to 260kW, a DC charger will take the battery from 10-80 per cent in a mere 18 minutes. One of the most appealing things about the Ioniq 5 is its stand-out looks which, four years after launch - still make you turn round for a second look. The N Line's distinctive pixel design on the front - featuring rectangular LED lights - makes a bold statement, as does the rear spoiler, prominent rear diffuser, and a strip of LED lights that run right across the back. The side of the vehicle features sharp creases Viewed from the side, the eye is drawn to the sharp crease that starts low in the rear door and works its way up through the front doors towards the wing mirror. That crease perfectly matches the angle of the rear end of the vehicle, creating a feel of uniformity. The overall effect of such sharp styling is to make a fairly bulky vehicle look more akin to a hot hatch. Once you step inside, it's a pleasant cabin in which to relax and spread out. Indeed, there seems to be oceans of space for both front and rear seat occupants. That space, combined with smooth cruising manners, mean longer journeys feel like a doddle. In this version, the high-performance sport seats keep you in control and comfortable. They feature the exclusive N Line embossing, red contrast stitching and red piping. The redesigned centre console enhances the in-cabin experience by relocating the charging pad, cupholder and the buttons for seat heating and parking cameras close to the hand of the driver and passenger.

Hyundai is offering a pretty slick lease deal on the 2025 Kona Electric for the month of May. Redesigned just last year, the Hyundai Kona Electric is one value-packed model, with a range up to 261 miles on a single charge, that makes it a great daily driver. With Hyundai's latest lease deal, the Kona Electric is available for as little as $189 per month for a 24-month lease term. The deal includes a $7,500 EV lease bonus, requires a down payment of $3,999 due at signing, and allows for up to 12,000 miles per year. Available from $32,975, the Hyundai Kona Electric is one of the more affordable EVs on the market, especially once you discount the automaker's $7,500 lease bonus. The all-electric crossover features up to 201 horsepower and four trim levels to choose from. In its base SE trim, the Kona Electric features a 12.3-inch touchscreen display and a 12.3-inch instrument cluster. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, as does Wi-Fi hotspot capability, and front and rear USB ports. The real meat of the 2025 Hyundai Kona Electric comes in the form of the N Line trim, a new addition to the range. The performance-inspired model rides on unique 19-inch wheels with restyled bumpers and side skirts. The Kona Electric N Line features a Bose premium audio system, a wireless device charging pad, and ambient lighting. Like all Hyundai vehicles, the Kona Electric comes equipped with a full suite of active safety systems.

The Hyundai Kona Electric is available in four trim levels, with the SE and SEL trims running you $189 and $209 per month, respectively.

South Korean car giant registers multiple new patents in Russia
South Korean auto giant Hyundai has registered at least eight new trademarks with Russia's intellectual property service, Rospatent, this month, according to TASS. Hyundai suspended operations in Russia in March 2022 after the introduction of sanctions against Moscow, related to the Ukraine conflict. The manufacturer cited the resulting difficulties with parts supplies as the reason for its decision. The filings suggest that Hyundai could be preparing for a return to the Russian market. The new trademarks grant the company the right to manufacture and sell a wide array of vehicles in Russia, from passenger cars to buses, tractors, and heavy trucks. The registration also covers key auto components, including tires, shock absorbers, engines, and wheels. The registered patents reportedly include a range of models, such as Hyundai H-1, N Performance, N Line, Hyundai Axis, Ellecity, Xcient, Hyundai H100, and Hyundai Coupe. The variety of names points to potential activity across both commercial and passenger segments, including performance and luxury sub-brands. The rights to use the Hyundai trademarks in Russia will remain valid until 2034, according to the filings. A similar move was previously made by another South Korean automaker, Kia, which has filed at least six trademark applications with Rospatent. Hyundai and its affiliate Kia, once among the three best-selling car brands in Russia, joined a mass international corporate withdrawal amid Western pressure and Ukraine-related sanctions on Moscow. Hyundai Motor Group sold 100% of its Russian assets, including its St. Petersburg plant, for a symbolic 10,000 rubles ($123), while securing a buyback option valid for two years. It means the group must make a decision on restarting production at the facility before the end of 2025. Other major foreign brands have also been positioning themselves for potential reentry and asset reacquisition in Russia. Last month, LG Electronics confirmed it has resumed operations at its home appliance plant in Moscow, which produced washing machines and refrigerators. Italian household appliance manufacturer Ariston also recently announced its return to Russia after exiting the market in 2022.
