Hyundai's EV Surge: Ioniq 5 Breaks Records & Ioniq 9 Sales Jump 279% Hyundai’s electric vehicle sales are absolutely exploding in the US, proving the EV transition is far from over! In the latest May 2026 sales report, Hyundai smashed previous records as the wildly popular Ioniq 5 saw a massive 28% increase in year-over-year sales, cementing its place as one of America's top-selling electric vehicles. Even more shockingly, the brand new three-row Ioniq 9 experienced a massive 279% sales surge! In this video, we break down the latest incredible sales figures, how Hyundai is managing to completely defy the broader market slowdown despite the loss of federal tax credits, and why their aggressive pricing, ultra-fast charging, and new US production strategy are completely dominating the competition. 👉Visit web: https://theelectricviking.com 👉Book a 1-Hour Consultation with The Electric Viking via the link at https://theelectricviking.com/consultation/ Sign up for my newsletter here ► https://theelectricviking.com/newsletter/ 🔔 Subscribe and hit the notification bell! ► https://www.youtube.com/@electricviking?sub_confirmation=1 👉Use Australia's best Solar, Home Battery and EV charger comparison tool - It's 100% free to use: https://compare.solarchoice.net.au/the-electric-viking/?sca=electric_viking Join me on Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/theelectricviking Join as a member in The Electric Viking YouTube► https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjzi56cxvmEDwjo1Bd2Yxpg/join Members-only videos (see videos before anyone else)► https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=UUMOjzi56cxvmEDwjo1Bd2Yxpg Support by sending Super Thanks!
