Hyundai Motor Company has launched the Ioniq 6 sporty electric sedan with a digital world premiere film.

Hyundai says the Ioniq 6 delivers an estimated all-electric range of over 610 km, according to WLTP standards. It also has what maybe Hyundai’s most aerodynamic styling to date and an array of interesting features, such as Dual Color Ambient Lighting, Speed Sync Lighting, EV Performance Tune-up and Electric Active Sound Design (e-ASD) to enhance the personal driving experience.

The Dual Color Ambient Lighting allows a driver to customize the look and feel of the interior cabin by selecting from a spectrum of 64 colors and six pre-selected themes.  The Speed Sync Lighting mode adds emotion to the driving experience by changing the brightness of the interior lighting in the first row based on the vehicle’s speed.

The Ioniq 6’S personalized driving experience is further enhanced by the EV Performance Tune-up system, which allows the driver to freely adjust steering effort, motor power, accelerator pedal sensitivity and driveline mode. Drivers can create a variety of different combinations with just a few button clicks to meet their individual needs. Ioniq 6 also features e-ASD, a technology under which a spaceship-like sound is added to the cabin, and the sound texture changes based on the vehicle’s driving status.

The Ioniq 6 is available with a range of drive motors and battery pack options same as the Ioniq 5. The long-range 77.4-kWh battery can be mated with two electric motor layouts, either rear-wheel-drive (RWD) or all-wheel-drive (AWD). The top-of-the-line dual motor setup is an AWD option producing a combined power output of 239 kW and 605 Nm of torque. With a 350-kW charger, Ioniq 6 can charge from 10 percent to 80 percent in just 18 minutes.

The electrified streamliner utilises Hyundai Motor Group’s Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) to provide an extremely long, 2,950-mm wheelbase, supported by a choice of 20-inch or 18-inch wheels. With an overall length of 4,855 mm, Ioniq 6’s 1,880-mm width and 1,495-mm height give it a distinctively sleek and stylish appearance.

The Ioniq 6 is slated to begin production in the third quarter of 2022. The market launch schedule will be announced later.
