While the all-new Hyundai Ioniq 5 missed out on a few awards and lists of the top new EVs due to the timing of its launch, it has still been lucky to be the winner of several prestigious awards in 2021 and 2022. However, now, it takes home an honor that is arguably much more coveted than many other awards. The Ioniq 5 was named the overall UK Car of the Year award winner, as well as the Best Family Car.
The Ioniq 5 had already been chosen as the Best Family Car in the UK Car of the Year Awards shortlist. Some 29 judges from many different backgrounds and publications chose the innovative electric crossover to receive the title. Not long after, it was chosen by the same panel to be the top pick among all cars, not just electric vehicles or classmates.
