An all-weather and all-terrain model like the 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 XRT is a terrific choice for eco-friendly off-road adventurers. The XRT is an upper trim in the 2025 IONIQ 5 family that is oriented towards high-demand performance, such as traveling on unpaved trails. Explore the features of this adventure-tuned, fully electric SUV to see why it’s time for an upgrade.
1. All-Terrain Engineering

The XRT underscores its all-terrain performance with features like the standard HTRAC AWD, durable 18-inch alloy wheels with all-terrain tires, and Drive Mode Select. The HTRAC drivetrain adjusts the power distribution to all four wheels with independent wheel braking in real time, which improves handling and stability when roads are slippery.
Drive Mode Select cycles through Normal, Eco, Sport, and Snow driving modes, seamlessly augmenting the performance of the powertrain based on your driving environment and performance preferences. The XRT comes with a unique Terrain mode that optimizes powertrain and driveline performance for off-road driving situations. The XRT also has a unique +23 mm suspension lift and a seven-inch ground clearance for better off-road performance.
2. Traffic and Navigation Technology
Whether you’re on a long trip or your weekday commute, real-time traffic updates via HD Radio with incident data are a vital resource to plan the most efficient route. Along with traffic flow information, the XRT comes with a 12.3-inch infotainment system with onboard navigation for precise directions, detour rerouting, and more.
Additionally, the XRT is equipped with a navigation-based Smart Cruise Control system with Curve Control. This sophisticated driver assistance software uses navigation data to predict when to adjust cruising speed to safely handle curves while also optimizing energy efficiency. Smart Cruise Control also optimizes urban travel by resuming cruising speed after coming to a complete stop within three seconds of the car moving forward.
3. Versatile Cargo Space
The XRT can haul coolers and road trip supplies without compromising seating space with a dedicated cargo capacity of 26.3 cubic feet. Folding down the rear seats expands the cargo area to 58.5 cubic feet, allowing for plenty of space for camping and recreational gear. Since an EV battery takes up less space, drivers also benefit from an under-hood storage area that can hold up to 0.85 cubic feet, which is enough room for emergency roadside essentials.
The IONIQ 5 XRT has an estimated driving range of 259 miles and a combined energy efficiency of 94 MPGe, making it a great choice for mid-range travel. Features like Drive Mode Select and the HTRAC AWD system ensure the XRT is prepared for off-road travel in all weather conditions.
