CardinaleWay Hyundai Glendora - Trail-Ready Confidence in the 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 5 XRT for Duarte, CA Drivers

The 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 5 XRT is proof that an electric SUV can thrive Monday through Friday and still be the first pick for hitting your favorite weekend trailheads around Duarte, CA. With standard HTRAC All Wheel Drive, an EPA-estimated 259-mile range, and 239 kW (320 hp) of smooth, instant torque, XRT blends surefooted traction with the kind of quiet composure that makes every mile feel effortless. Its +23mm suspension lift, unique XRT tuning, and multi-terrain mode add measured capability, while the 18-inch XRT-exclusive wheels and all-terrain tires bring a grounded, athletic stance. Underneath that bold design sits the 800V architecture that helps shrink charging windows—perfect for spontaneous plans.

From the driver’s seat, the IONIQ 5’s twin 12.3-inch displays feel modern but familiar, thanks to intuitive menus and crisp graphics. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ support clean up your console, while Bluelink+ keeps you connected for remote lock/unlock, preconditioning, or scheduling a charge when electricity rates are lower. Highway Driving Assist 2 adds lane-change assistance on top of lane centering, and Blind-Spot View Monitor streams a live camera feed into the digital instrument cluster when you signal—precisely the kind of confidence you want when you’re loaded with gear. On the trail or in a tight parking garage, Remote Smart Parking Assist 2 can line up or exit the space for you with a press and hold on your Smart Key.

  • Powertrain: Standard HTRAC All Wheel Drive with up to 239 kW (320 hp) for confident traction and strong acceleration.
  • Range: EPA-estimated 259 miles on XRT—ample for daily use, weekend loops, or detours to scenic overlooks.
  • Charging: 800V DC capability enables quick sessions; a 240V AC home charger makes overnight charging simple.

Vehicle-to-Load 120V outlets add a new dimension to weekend life—brew coffee at the overlook, power a laptop at the trailhead, or run camp lighting from the cargo area. The XRT also carries Advanced Rear Occupant Alert for added peace of mind, and the Parking Distance Warning — Forward/Reverse/Side system helps when curbs, posts, or boulders hide in your periphery. Between the rugged styling cues and the refined ride, XRT feels tailored to drivers who want everyday comfort with extra capability baked in.
