Cost to Charge a Hyundai Ioniq 5
Updated September 2026 · U.S. average rates
The short answer: at the national average rate, a full home charge of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 (77 kWh usable, ~260 miles of range) costs about $14.46 — 5.5¢ per mile, or $55.23 per 1,000 miles. The same charge at a public DC fast charger runs roughly $33.11. Versus a 32-mpg gas car, home charging saves about $43.21 per 1,000 miles.
Living with a Hyundai Ioniq 5: the cost story
The Ioniq 5 rides on Hyundai's 800-volt E-GMP platform, which still sets the pace for charging speed in its price class — 10 to 80% happens in well under twenty minutes on a capable charger, so road-trip stops are coffee-length rather than meal-length.
Its party trick with a cost angle is V2L: the car can power tools, a campsite, or appliances from its drive battery through a simple adapter. The 2025-on refresh added a native NACS port, folding Supercharger pricing into the ownership equation.

Hyundai Ioniq 5 charging speed & home charger
Cost does not depend on speed — a kWh is a kWh — but time does. These estimates use the Hyundai Ioniq 5's onboard AC limit (11 kW) and its typical DC fast-charging peak (~235 kW); real sessions taper as the battery fills.
Home charger sizing: the Hyundai Ioniq 5 tops out at 11 kW on AC, so a 48-amp charger on a 60-amp circuit reaches its limit — a bigger unit adds nothing. Overnight (8 hours) on Level 2 restores about 260 miles, more than most daily driving. See Level 1 vs Level 2 and how many kWh it takes to charge an EV.
