I run into the same; ran with --verbose and got the following additional info (but I'm still not sure how to resolve it):

Please retry the command with the --verbose flag and it should provide more details. @bholub this sounds like we have some mismatch in ionic framework. I will ensure this is addressed in driftyco/ionic.

upgrading npm version to 3 fixed the issue. thanks,

My issue was due to proxy settings, once I changed the settings its working like a charm. Thanks jthoms1, your idea of running the command with verbose helped me uncover the network issue.

We recently released a new version of the CLI that should allow us to gather more insight into NPM issues. Could you please update your CLI to at least 2.1.4?

npm install -g ionic@latest

Thank you!
