The IONIQ 5 is about to get a smoother and posher brother in the form of the IONIQ 6. Set to arrive later this year, the IONIQ 6 will mark the second stage in Hyundai's roll-out of its electric-only IONIQ sub-brand. Will it be worth the wait?

Ginny Says

“The 6 will take all of the things we love about the IONIQ5 and put them in a sleeker package which promises even more efficiency. The design touches and attention to detail are fantastic and while the saloon shape will limit its appeal in the UK, it looks like another winner ”

Nicki Says

“It's quite obvious that there's still a big stash of brave pills at Hyundai headquarters. I worried that bosses might make the IONIQ 6 a more traditional design, but I'm glad that they haven't. The rear end has a few Porsche 911 vibes, which is is no bad thing, and the cabin looks fantastic. ”

How much will the Hyundai IONIQ 6 cost?

Based on what we know about the likely specification and the fact that it will sit above the IONIQ 5 in the Hyundai line-up, we anticipate that the IONIQ 6 range will start from around £50,000. This would be for the larger 77.4kWh version. If Hyundai decides to add the 58kWh battery version to the range, then expect prices to start from around £47,000. 

How big is the Hyundai IONIQ 6?

The IONIQ 6 is 4,855mm long, 1,880mm wide and 1,495mm high. It has a wheelbase of 2,950mm, which is 50mm shorter than the IONIQ 5. 

How much power will the IONIQ 6 have?

The IONIQ 6 will be available with two and all-wheel drive and is expected to have very similar power outputs to the current IONIQ 5. That means entry-level models will have 215bhp with the range-topping model expected 305bhp. 

What is the range of the IONIQ 6?

The IONIQ 6 is likely to be a lot more aerodynamic than the boxy IONIQ 5 and comes with a 77.4 kWh battery. The combination of the slippery design and large pack is expected to boost overall range to around 330 miles on a single charge. 

How long does it take to charge the IONIQ 6?

Like the IONIQ 5, the 6 is equipped with an advanced 800 volt charging system that will allow for super-quick charging sessions when hooked up to a suitable DC rapid charger. We'd expect the IONIQ 6 to charge to 80% in around 20 minutes when connected to a 350kW rapid charger. On a domestic 7kW wallbox, a full charge from empty to full will take around 11 hours.
