Charging Speed
The Hyundai IONIQ 5 has a peak DC charging speed of 263 kW, which is roughly 32% faster than the Alpine A390 at 200 kW. In practice, peak speed only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.
For the 10-80% charge (the most common DC fast charging scenario), the Hyundai IONIQ 5 finishes in about 18 minutes, which is 9 minutes quicker than the Alpine A390 at 27 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.
Range and Efficiency
The Hyundai IONIQ 5 has a WLTP rated range of approximately 570 km, which is roughly 20 km more than the Alpine A390 at approximately 550 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.
Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The Hyundai IONIQ 5 consumes 178 Wh/km, compared to 189 Wh/km for the Alpine A390. That means the Hyundai IONIQ 5 uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.
A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The Hyundai IONIQ 5 has approximately 80 kWh of useable battery , while the Alpine A390 has approximately 89 kWh.
Which One Should You Choose?
If fast charging speed is your priority, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 wins on both peak power (up to 263 kW) and time at the plug (approximately 18 minutes from 10-80%). For long road trips with multiple charging stops, that faster turnaround makes a real difference.
For AC charging (home wallboxes, workplace chargers, and public street chargers), the Alpine A390 supports up to 22 kW, compared to 11 kW for the Hyundai IONIQ 5. In Europe, many public chargers are 22 kW AC, so this difference can mean charging roughly twice as fast at those locations.
If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 is the more efficient choice at 178 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.
For maximum range between charges, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 has a WLTP rated range of approximately 570 km, which is roughly 20 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.

From Finn, engineer: Charging specs alone do not tell the full story. Real-world charging speed depends on battery temperature, state of charge, and the charger itself. These comparisons use manufacturer-published data. Approximate values only.
