It is the best-selling electric vehicle excluding Tesla's Model Y and Model 3.

Sales volume for the first half reached 20,730 units, an increase of 9% compared to last year. The model climbed from fifth place last year to third this year, surpassing major competing models.

U.S. electric vehicle media outlets have assessed that the Ioniq 5 is gaining popularity due to its cost-effectiveness, driven by the ability to use Tesla's charging network and recent price reductions.
