Hyundai Ioniq 5
Charging curve · consumption · motorway range
We model 2 versions of the Hyundai Ioniq 5. The Ioniq 5 84 kWh RWD (2024 on) has 80 kWh of usable battery and peaks at 263 kW on a DC charger. In this app's model it uses about 189 Wh/km at a steady 100 km/h and 277 Wh/km at 130, so 46% more energy per kilometre buys you 30 km/h more speed. Weigh that against a 19-minute 10-80% charging stop and you have the whole question of how fast to drive.

Which version you have matters
These share a name and not much else that a trip planner cares about. Pack size sets how far you go between stops, and the curve sets how long each one takes.
| Version | Usable battery | Peak DC | 10-80% | At 130 km/h | Range at 130 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ioniq 5 73 kWh AWD | 72.6 kWh | 220 kW | 19 min | 278 Wh/km | 261 km |
| Ioniq 5 84 kWh RWD (2024 on) | 80 kWh | 263 kW | 19 min | 277 Wh/km | 289 km |
DC charging curve
Charging power against state of charge, on a charger fast enough not to be the limit. Peak power is 263 kW, but it has halved by about 74% state of charge. That is why a short stop low down the curve usually beats a long one near the top.

Consumption and range by cruise speed
Steady motorway cruising on flat road in mild weather, from the fitted model Wh/km = 62 + 0.0127 · v² for the Ioniq 5 84 kWh RWD (2024 on). The “usable range” column is the honest one for trip planning: it is 100% down to 10%, because nobody arrives on empty.
| Cruise speed | Consumption | Range (full pack) | Usable range (100 to 10%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 90 km/h | 165 Wh/km | 485 km | 437 km |
| 100 km/h | 189 Wh/km | 423 km | 381 km |
| 110 km/h | 216 Wh/km | 371 km | 334 km |
| 120 km/h | 245 Wh/km | 327 km | 294 km |
| 130 km/h | 277 Wh/km | 289 km | 260 km |
| 140 km/h | 311 Wh/km | 257 km | 232 km |

What the model does not include
- Elevation. The trip planner does account for climbs and descents; the range figures on this page are flat-road, so an alpine route will come out worse than the table.
- Temperature. These are mild-weather numbers. Cold raises consumption and cuts the charging curve. The planner models both. The numbers on this page do not.
- Wind, rain, roof boxes, payload and tyre choice, all of which move real consumption more than most people expect.
- Charger-side limits. The charging times above assume the site can deliver whatever the car asks for. A 150 kW cabinet shared with the car next to you will not.

Hyundai/Kia E-GMP 800 V platform: peak power held nearly flat to ~45-50% SoC, then a steep taper, so these cars want short stops taken low. Curated from Fastned model guides + P3 Charging Index style tests. Fitted to the MY24 84 kWh RWD, the fastest-charging car in this catalog: 263 kW held to 45% SoC puts 10-80% at eighteen minutes. On a long drive that is worth more than its extra range.

What speed should you actually drive?
It depends on your route, on where the fast chargers happen to be and how the legal limits fall. Plan the real trip and the simulator will sweep every cruise speed against this car's curves and tell you which one arrives first.
