SAVANNAH — Despite slowing U.S. electric vehicle sales, Hyundai on Tuesday rolled out the 2025 versions of its Ioniq 5 electric SUV with improved battery range and charging aimed at broadening the appeal of vehicles to be built at a massive new Georgia factory.
The South Korean automaker unveiled a test version of its latest EV at a dealership in Savannah, Georgia, a few miles from a sprawling new $7.6 billion manufacturing complex.

Hyundai's latest models have upgrades aimed at 'broadening the appeal of electric vehicles to as many people as possible,' said Joe LaMuraglia, head of communications for the company's Georgia factory.That includes batteries with a greater range. Hyundai says the base model 2025 Ionic 5s can reach up to 240 miles on a single charge — an improvement of 20 miles compared to the last models. Range can extend to at least 310 miles with certain options, the company says.
