Hyundai's first EV sedan is the futuristic Ioniq 6
hile Tesla, Ford and GM all vie for the top spot in the American electric vehicle market, Hyundai hasthat threatens to surpass them all. On Wednesday , Hyundai Motor Group officially unveiled the Ioniq 6, a streamlined sedan that offers an estimated 610km range and an intelligent interior that George Jetson would mistake for magic.. As such, the 6 is outfitted with an industry-leading 800V electrical architecture enabling a 10-80 charge in just 18 minutes.
Its exceedingly aerodynamic exterior, available in a dozen different colors, has been likened to that of an Apple Mouse come to life — like someone shortened the back ofDrivers will have the option between RWD and AWD variants. Per Hyundai, the AWD will output 239 kW with 605 Nm of torque and hit 60 from a standstill in 5.1 seconds. You’ll have to opt for the small battery RWD model to achieve maximum efficiency and get the sub-14 kWh/100 km WLTP-estimated energy consumption.
Its"cocoon-inspired" interior has been built as a “comfy and personalized hideaway” where, according to the company’s launch video, people can take naps, bang out some light coding or office work and even conduct livestreams to their myriad social media followers — or, in reality, will serve as a quiet place to cry during lunch breaks.
While Hyundai does not claim any semblance of"self-driving" capability, the Ioniq 6 does feature a slew of Level 2 driver assist functions as part of the Hyundai SmartSense ADAS. That includes Highway Driving Assist, Smart Cruise Control, and Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist all of which operate around the same theme of keeping you from smashing headfirst into other vehicles.
