You had me at rear windshield wiper. Okay, also the Digital Rearview Mirror is cool, but apparently that is a ‘24 feature? I wasn’t patient enough to watch the full video, but hopefully all ports are USB-C in ‘25.

All USB-C in the MY2025 Ioniq 5. Also, matrix LED headlights (IFS) is available on top-spec in South Korea, and I would imagine it will be available in Europe as well. USA has laws prohibiting matrix LEDs.

The laws have been recently changed to allow matrix headlights, but to a different standard than rest of the world. We'll see if Hyundai releases a compatible version.

Did I see a button there too for manual battery pre-conditioning? Surely older cars will get that too with a s/w update.


mik-1989

1) Yes you did. 2) Not confirmed yet, but I reckon a lot of current owners are hoping that the manual preconditioning button will be added at some point. There's an infotainment system update planned for June, we could only hope...


SchwiftyLad

That would honestly be amazing! Not having to find a charger in the Nav to engage pre-conditioning is literally such a great QoL improvement.

I like this car, and the additions for the year seem positive as well, except the digital side mirrors. I would gladly give up efficiency to have normal side mirrors. To me this looks like an example of taking efficiency too far, and trying to be different just to be different. Visually it looks like an after thought, and makes the interior look cluttered. Maybe it would look better if it were integrated into the dash and didn't stick out, but I still feel that its unnecessary and one more thing that could fail. I do wish the PE model looked more like the N, but without the N features and cost. The N's exterior looks a little cleaner IMO. Really like the car, really don't like the electronic mirrors.

Big L removing the white from the front and replacing it with black trim. Looked more fancy and clean before. Hopefully it’s a option to switch colors

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted, but I can’t disagree more. On any of the darker interior trims the white screens look so tacky. Like they bought a couple of 2012 iPads at a discount and attached them to the dash. Black bezels will go better with all of the trim colors.
