The first car was delivered to a customer in California.
It started! Hyundai is delivering the first Ioniq 5 electric cars in the U.S. – as promised, before the end of the year.
According to the press release, the first Hyundai Ioniq 5 was handed over on December 15, 2021, to a buyer on the west coast – Yaron Alfi of Los Angeles, California, who is deeply passionate about electric vehicles.
We don’t know the exact version (RWD or AWD), but it’s obviously the Limited trim and the color is Atlas White.
Yaron Alfi said:
“IONIQ 5 is the perfect vehicle for my growing family. It ensures sustainability is at the forefront. The cabin is roomy and will offer an ample amount of space necessary for my young children,”
“The vehicle’s advanced connectivity features will offer great family fun, and we look forward to embarking on future road and camping trips away from the city. I’m thrilled to be one of the first buyers of this bold new vehicle, and I can’t wait to hit the road.”
The South Korean manufacturer announced this week the pricing of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 in the U.S., which enabled us to compare the three main versions with other EVs:
The offer appears to be competitive, so the main question is how quickly Hyundai will ramp up production of the Ioniq 5 and how many cars will be delivered in the coming months, as well as how quickly the availability will spread nationwide.
