Hyundai has revealed more detail on its upcoming IONIQ 6 electrified streamliner and the main headline is the 614 km range. As we know, “up to” are the operative words.

Performance has been reported as low as 13.9 kWh/100 km, making IONIQ 6 one of the lowest power-consming EVs on the Australian market.

“From the start of IONIQ 6’s development, we set our sights on making it the leading all-electric range EV,” said Jae Ho Huh, Head of Sub-Mid Project Management Centre at Hyundai Motor Company. “To become the global leader in electric vehicles, we are committed to providing the best possible EV performance and ownership experience.”

As reported, IONIQ 6’s electric range performance is partly due to the Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), and the electrified streamliner’s ultra-low wind resistance. Apart from good range, the E-GMP provides 800V ultra-fast charging from 10 to 80 percent in just 18 minutes and supports 400V charging without the need for additional components or adapters.

As with other IONIQ models on the E-GMP, IONIQ 6 can be a workstation or a portable power bank on wheels, creating new usage scenarios to fit customers’ diverse, on-the-go lifestyles.
