Hyundai Ioniq 5 garners over 650 bookings, deliveries begin next month
Hyundai Motor India has received over 650 bookings for its new flagship, the Ioniq 5 electric SUV, the company has confirmed. The new Hyundai Ioniq 5 made its way to the Indian market earlier this year at the Auto Expo 2023 and arrived with a tempting asking price starting from ₹44.95 lakh (ex-showroom India, introductory).
While Hyundai was expecting booking numbers to be in the ballpark of 250-300 cars, the Ioniq 5 has received more demand than anticipated. The all-electric offering is locally assembled, which gives it a significant price advantage over its cousin, the Kia EV6. The model offers a highly likeable modern-retro design language, while the cabin is spacious with top-notch quality and sustainable materials used. The 12.3-inch dual screens also come with Hyundai’s latest user interface, while offering a host of connectivity options.
