Coming to the interior design, the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq will come equipped with a dual-tone white and black interior theme, and a two-spoke multifunction steering wheel. It will also feature a large single-piece unit that houses the instrument console and touchscreen infotainment system. Other inclusions are chrome inserts, mood lighting, a panoramic sunroof, cup holders for the front row and an arm-rest for the second row.

Enabled by the extensive usability of E-GMP, Hyundai Ioniq 5 will truly transform the way we perceive mobility. This BEV has been developed to maximise interior space, thereby enhancing customers’ lifestyles and becoming a home away from home and not just another means of transportation. We are certain with an array of unique features, Hyundai Ioniq 5 will offer customers an unprecedented level of comfort, convenience, and dynamic experiences.”
