Today, Hyundai is introducing the Ioniq 6. The production-ready electric vehicle is finally here looking like no other electric sedan before it. It adopts the same pixel light theme as the Ioniq 5 crossover, lending the car a retro-futuristic appearance. Interesting enough, the Ioniq 6 comes with two spoilers.
Finished in black, the upper one incorporates a wide LED third brake light while the other mounted lower is neatly integrated into the trunk lid, positioned between the Hyundai badge and the prominent IONIQ 6 lettering. A closer look at the side profile shows door handles that remain flush with the bodywork for better airflow.
Cameras have replaced the bulky side mirrors, but of course, the are not road legal in all the countries. Traditional mirrors will be included in different markets.
Ioniq 6 sits on the E-GMP architecture conceived right from the beginning exclusively for zero-emissions models. Hyundai is not releasing any technical specifications for the time being, but the wheelbase does seem quite generous judging by the length of the rear doors.
The interior is also a wonderful mélange of past meets future by adopting a minimalist design with neon-like LED ambient lighting like a nightclub from the 1980s. It too gets side-by-side screens because that’s where the industry seems to be heading, but it still retains physical controls for the climate settings.
Hyundai’s EV onslaught isn’t stopping here as 2023 will see the introduction of the Ioniq 7 with three-row seating.
