One of the most unique-looking cars on the road, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 is this year’s Best Car for City Drivers award winner.
City cars need to provide a smooth drive, comfortable seats and good visibility to help drivers spot hazards up ahead. The Ioniq 5 offers all of this and more, including its good looks, practicality, and the ability to navigate traffic and tight roads with ease. An owner commented that the Ioniq 5 "has all the power I could want, looks fantastic and handles extremely well when I’m driving around town." The unique-looking car saw off healthy competition in the Volvo EX30 and Cupra Born to be crowned this year’s champion. Well done, Hyundai. Return to the New Car Awards homepage
