Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Hyundai IONIQ 5 than in the Volkswagen ID.4. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Hyundai IONIQ 5 and the Volkswagen ID.4.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Hyundai IONIQ 5 is somewhat more expensive than the Volkswagen ID.4.

Dimensions
Since the Hyundai IONIQ 5 is much wider than the Volkswagen ID.4, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. When looking at overall length, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Volkswagen ID.4.

Handling
The Hyundai IONIQ 5 has a larger turning radius than the Volkswagen ID.4, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
With the Volkswagen ID.4, you'll be able to pull heavier loads than with the Hyundai IONIQ 5. The Hyundai IONIQ 5 has a little less horsepower than the Volkswagen ID.4.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Volkswagen ID.4.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Hyundai IONIQ 5 and the Volkswagen ID.4. The Hyundai IONIQ 5 has less cargo space than the Volkswagen ID.4, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
