Here is How the 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Compares To the 2022 Kia EV6

The 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 and the 2022 Kia EV6 are both brand new electric vehicles that are related since they use the same platforms and drivetrains, but the Ioniq 5 has a few advantages over the EV6.

The interior space

The 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 benefits from a more useable shape than the 2022 Kia EV6 due to its more conventional shape that is more upright and useable. This means that despite a slightly shorter overall length, the Ioniq 5 is capable of offering more interior space than the EV6 in almost every measure. This makes everyone on board more comfortable on long trips, especially those seated in the rear. Another advantage of this is the larger load space in the Ioniq 5, which can be extended up to 1,679 liters by folding the rear seats. Doing the same in the EV6 only presents 1,322 liters of space.

The Features

The 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 is available with a few features that are missing on the 2022 Kia EV6, such as the panoramic sunroof and the trailer towing prep. Indeed, the Ioniq 5 is available with a very large panoramic glass roof that adds to the airy feeling of the cabin while the EV6 can only be ordered with a regular-size sunroof. Similarly, the Ioniq 5 comes standard with the trailer towing preparation, which means that the electricals needed to operate the trailer lights and electric brakes are already installed and ready to be used while.

The charging times

Despite sharing the same powertrains, some differences exist in the charge times of the 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 versus those of the 2022 Kia EV6. Indeed, the Ioniq 5 is capable of charging much faster on a level 1 120 volt outlet since it only takes 37,25 hours to charge the battery fully compared to 68 hours to do so on the EV6 when both vehicles are equipped with the 77.4 kWh battery pack.
