2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV vs. 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5
Compare Feature & Specs
Overview
Electric SUVs are great for drivers in Vancouver, WA, who value interior space and comfort but are also careful about reducing fuel costs and carbon footprints. The 2025 Chevy Equinox EV and the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 are some of the most popular representatives of this vehicle type. This is how they compare in some vital aspects.
Electric Range
The main concern for people switching from gas-powered to electric is how long they can go before needing to charge their vehicles. The standard range for the 2025 Chevy Equinox is 319 miles, with the only exception being the 300-horsepower dual-electric version, which has a 285-mile range.
The 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 has a standard range of 245 miles, significantly less than the Equinox. Its top range is 318 miles but that requires a larger and more expensive 84-kWh battery pack.
Price
The 2025 Chevy Equinox EV is one of the most affordable electric SUVs on the market. Its starting MSRP is $34,995, while the MSRP for the best-equipped version is $44,795. By comparison, the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 is almost $10,000 more expensive. Its base trim has an MSRP of $43,975, which is almost as much as the Equinox top trim. The top XRT trim, which is the only one with the standard 318-mile range, has an MSRP of $56,875.
Both the 2025 Chevy Equinox and the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 are both great examples of well-built electric SUVs. However, the Equinox's superior range and more competitive pricing arguably make it a more attractive option for car buyers.
