[Asia Economy Reporter Ki-min Lee] The driving range per single charge of Hyundai Motor Company's first dedicated electric vehicle, the Ioniq 5, has been revealed.

On the 26th, Hyundai Motor announced that the maximum driving range of the Ioniq 5 Long Range 2-wheel drive (rear-wheel drive) based on the Ministry of Environment certification standard is 429 km. Hyundai explained that the driving range for the Long Range all-wheel drive model and the Standard model is still undergoing the Ministry of Environment certification process.

The disclosed driving range applies to the Exclusive trim equipped with 19-inch tires, and it is expected that the driving range will be shorter for the Exclusive and Prestige trims equipped with 20-inch tires.

Hyundai also added that the certification process by the Ministry of Environment is currently underway for the all-wheel drive models and Standard trims.

Previously, on the 23rd of last month, Hyundai first revealed some specifications of the Ioniq 5, stating that the driving range was 410 to 430 km based on internal measurement standards.

This measurement aligns with the domestic electric vehicle driving range measurement method. In Korea, driving range is measured under various conditions, such as driving with the heater on.

Meanwhile, Hyundai will begin domestic delivery of the Ioniq 5 Long Range 2-wheel drive model starting next month.
