The Hyundai Ioniq 5 supports three-phase charging at up to 11kW, but three-phase supplies are rare in UK homes. A single-phase 7.4kW charger works fine for overnight charging; where a three-phase supply exists, an 11kW charger cuts charge time by about 37%.
Salary Sacrifice and the Hyundai Ioniq 5
Like every fully electric car, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 can be leased through a UK employer salary sacrifice scheme: the lease comes out of gross pay, and Benefit-in-Kind is just 4% in 2026/27 (around £688 a year for a 40% taxpayer on a £43,000 list price). Typical savings run £5,000-15,000 a year versus buying privately, and many schemes bundle a home charger. There is no EV purchase grant in the UK, and EVs pay standard-rate VED of about £195 a year, stated here neutrally because petrol cars pay a similar annual charge.
