Talking about the exterior design, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 takes a new design direction that is an evolution of the recently seen ‘Sensuous Sportiness’ design language. Drawing inspiration from the Pony, Hyundai’s first-ever car, the IONIQ 5 highlights the company’s 45-year journey creating a common thread from past to present and the future. In terms of size, the new Hyundai IONIQ 5 measures 4.6-metres in length, 1.89 metres in width and 1.6-metres in height. The car also boasts of a 3.0-metre-long wheelbase that helps liberate more room on the inside.

From the start the IONIQ 5’s exterior design features a lot of retro design cues. The front and rear of the vehicle is dominated by the rectangular Parametric Pixels LED lights while the side profile showcases a modern and sporty silhouette with a short hood and a steeply raked C-Pillar. The large 20-inch alloy-wheels along with the auto-flush door handles add dynamism to the overall design.
