- Infinite Blue Premium, Standard Range, RWD
From what I've seen, neither the pricing nor the final trims in the US have been finalized, so some of this is speculative. In any event, many of the features are things I could care less about, so I most certainly wouldn't want to pay for them:
20" wheels - that is actually a negative, both from a ride and efficiency standpoint.
Remote parking - completely uninterested.
Dual closing shades - meh. Not necessary IMHO.
Towing capacity - I haven't towed anything in my life and never will.
Two key fobs - great, but a programmed fob only cost me $200.
Auto lane change - I think that's coming with BlueCruise.
Adjustable interior - not sure of the value to me.
Keyed access - Last time I opened a vehicle with a key was in the last century.
My RWD Standard Range Premium was just over $48K, including destination. From what I've read, any Ioniq 5 in that price range will be RWD, with 225 hp and 259 lbs-ft of torque - substantially slower than my Mach-E. That is more important to me than the features above.
