119,900 yuan — that’s where Beijing Hyundai set the presale price for its new IONIQ V at the Chengdu Auto Show. At the official exchange rate, that works out to roughly $16,800. The mid-tier version costs 129,900 yuan, and the Long-Range trim runs 139,900 yuan, about $19,600. SPEEDME journalists on site report that a full market launch is expected later.
The pricing looks especially telling next to Beijing Hyundai’s own lineup. The brand’s official site currently lists a starting price of 119,800 yuan for its EO electric SUV — just 100 yuan below the base IONIQ V. In other words, the new car from the more ambitious IONIQ family has effectively landed in the same price bracket.
This marks the next chapter in the model’s story: on August 12, SPEEDME reported the presale start date and the core specs of the IONIQ V, after the car made its debut at the 2026 Beijing Auto Show. Back then, pricing was still the biggest unknown.
The IONIQ V measures 4,900 mm in length, 1,890 mm in width, 1,470 mm in height, and rides on a 2,900 mm wheelbase. Buyers can choose between electric motors rated at 140 kW and 168 kW — roughly 190 hp and 228 hp. CATL lithium iron phosphate batteries come in 53.5 kWh or 66.8 kWh capacities, with a claimed CLTC range of 520, 540, 620, or 650 km depending on configuration.
The bet isn’t just on the electric drivetrain. Hyundai’s official page confirms a 27-inch 4K display, the Cyber Eye head-up display, a Snapdragon 8295 chipset, and integration with the Baidu Wenxin and Doubao AI models, plus a Momenta-based L2+ driver assistance system. Hyundai also emphasizes its use of CATL technology and the car’s development specifically for Chinese buyers.
For now, the 119,900–139,900 yuan figures remain presale prices in China only. The dollar conversion is just a currency reference and has nothing to do with any potential price for the car in other markets. No official international sales of the IONIQ V have been announced at this time.
