The Hyundai Ioniq 5 price and release dates announced for all models, cheapest Ioniq 5 slated for 2022 launch

After previewing the Ioniq 5 features and specs, including its top speed, towing capacity, and interior or exterior colors, Hyundai finally revealed the Ioniq 5 price in the U.S. and the release date of the electric crossover. Pricing for the new 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 starts at US$39,700 for the SE (Standard Edition) Standard Range version, but its release date will be in the spring. The rest of the Ioniq 5 trims - SE, SEL, and Limited models - will launch in December 2021 at prices up to US$54,500. For comparison, after Elon Musk's latest price increases, a base Tesla Model Y, the direct Ioniq 5 competitor, now starts at US$54,990. Here are all the 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 prices:

• Hyundai Ioniq 5 SE Standard Range RWD price: US$39,700 (168HP, 220-mile range)
• Hyundai Ioniq 5 SE RWD model price: US$43,650 (225HP, 303-mile range)
• Hyundai Ioniq 5 SE AWD model price: US$47,150 (320HP, 256-mile range) 
• Hyundai Ioniq 5 SEL RWD model price: US$45,900 (225HP, 303-mile range) 
• Hyundai Ioniq 5 SEL AWD model price: US$49,400 (320HP, 256-mile range)
• Hyundai Ioniq 5 Limited RWD model price: US$50,600 (225HP, 303-mile range)
• Hyundai Ioniq 5 Limited AWD model price: US$54,500 (320HP, 256-mile range)

Depending on the state you live in, the Ioniq 5 price can start from just US$33,425 with the delivery charge, after an EV tax credit of US$7,500 is applied. The long-range Ioniq 5 SE RWD with the 77.4 kWh battery that delivers 303 miles on a charge can drop to US$37,375 with delivery after the same electric vehicle tax credit. As usual, the Ioniq 5 price choice will incur a tradeoff between power and range, rear wheel or all wheel drive, and will determine your battery capacity. The standard 77.4 kWh pack, which will be in all Ioniq 5 models slated for "late December" launch, is good for a 303 miles of range on a charge according to the recent EPA test on a RWD Ioniq 5. That drops to a 256-mile range on the AWD Ioniq 5 models which are more powerful, too, carrying dual motors with a combined 320HP output. The smaller, 58 kWh battery that allows for 220-miled range, will be equipped on the Standard Edition Standard Range model, but that cheapest Ioniq 5 will hit the American roads after the winter. Hyundai also listed all the Ioniq 5 features that come standard with even the base trims:
