Using a 350 kW DC fast charger, the battery pack can be charged from empty to 80% in 18 minutes. Which battery pack will be available in the Indian market is unknown as of yet.
Expected price
When it is formally released, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 will face off against vehicles like the Kia EV6 and Volvo XC40 Recharge.
