What drives the cost
The Ioniq 5 AWD ranks 6th in efficiency among 15 EVs in the mixed sedans, SUVs, and trucks category, using 31.7 kWh per 100 miles. Your actual charging cost depends mainly on two things: your state’s electricity rate and where you charge. Most owners charge at home overnight, but occasional DC fast charging on road trips will raise your bill significantly.

Frequently asked questions
What does a full charge cost?
A full charge to 100% costs $17 at the U.S. average rate. Most owners don’t charge from empty to full daily; the $58 monthly figure reflects typical driving patterns.
How does this compare to a gas car?
A 30-mpg gas car costs $144 per month to drive the same distance. Over a year, you’d save $1,042 charging the Ioniq 5 instead.
Is DC fast charging going to break the bank on road trips?
One month of DC fast charging costs $149, so occasional road trips will add to your bill, but infrequent use keeps the impact manageable. Regular daily home charging remains your lowest-cost option.
Does my state’s electricity rate really matter that much?
Yes. The difference between the cheapest state at $40 per month and the priciest at $149 per month shows that where you live significantly affects your charging costs.
Your bill uses your own rate, not the state average. Enter it in the EV charging cost calculator, or see every state in the cost by state table.
