Hyundai Ioniq 6 (2023-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Individual looks	Ride is decidedly firm
Pleasant to drive	Some disappointing pieces of interior trim
Stuffed with equipment and technology	Wing mirror cameras are a bit pointless

Quick Summary

The Hyundai Ioniq 6 is a distinctive battery electric vehicle (BEV) designed to compete with executive cars like the Tesla Model 3 and BMW i4. Built on the E-GMP platform, it boasts an aerodynamic 'streamliner' profile with a 0.21cD drag coefficient, contributing to impressive efficiency. Available in rear-wheel drive (225bhp, up to 338 miles WLTP range) and all-wheel drive (321bhp, 322 miles WLTP range) variants, it offers a spacious interior thanks to its long wheelbase, with ample legroom for passengers.

Equipped with advanced 800V charging technology, the Ioniq 6 can achieve an 10-80% rapid charge in about 18 minutes, and features standard vehicle-to-load (V2L) functionality and a heat pump for improved efficiency. While its driving experience is refined and balanced, the ride can be firm on 20-inch wheels. Real-world efficiency is strong, translating to low running costs. The car is packed with tech, including a 12.3-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, though some interior finishes in lower trims might feel less premium.

Best for: Drivers seeking advanced EV technology (800V, V2L, heat pump), those who appreciate distinctive aerodynamic design, buyers needing a spacious and efficient electric executive car, and individuals looking for low running costs.

Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising ultimate ride comfort over rough surfaces, those who expect premium interior finishes in lower trims, customers who prefer traditional wing mirrors over camera systems, or those needing a larger boot volume for bulky items.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Ioniq 6 if: You're seeking advanced EV technology, a distinctive aerodynamic design, a spacious and efficient electric executive car, or low running costs.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise ultimate ride comfort, premium interior finishes in lower trims, or need a larger boot than offered.

Competitive Position: The Hyundai Ioniq 6 stands out in the electric executive car segment with its unique aerodynamic design, advanced 800V charging technology, and impressive efficiency. While its ride can be firm and some interior finishes could be improved, it offers excellent value, a spacious cabin, and a refined driving experience. It's a strong contender for those seeking a modern, high-tech EV with low running costs, especially against rivals like the Tesla Model 3 and BMW i4.
