Of the total of 76 cars in 26 categories, IONIQ 5 became the winner in the Electric SUV category and secured Sgcarmart&#8217;s one and only Car of the Year title for 2023. Sgcarmart explains on its website that it evaluates each car manufacturer&#8217;s efforts and creativity in bringing their cars to a higher level in terms of design, efficiency, versatility, and value for money.<\/p>\n<p>What is more meaningful about Sgcarmart 2023 Car of the Year is that among the eight criteria of evaluation, consumer voting takes about 65 percent of the total score.<\/p>\n<p>Hyundai Motor views IONIQ 5&#8217;s double honors as a testament to its commitment to future mobility production and technological innovation.
