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 four-door electric executive car with a distinctive, aerodynamic ‘streamliner’ design that sets it apart from rivals like the Tesla Model 3 and BMW i4. It boasts impressive efficiency and a WLTP range of up to 338 miles from its single-motor, rear-wheel-drive powertrain. An all-wheel-drive version offers more power but a slightly reduced range. The sleek styling prioritises aerodynamics, contributing to its excellent efficiency but resulting in a saloon-style boot that is less practical than the hatchback designs of some competitors. Inside, the cabin is futuristic and exceptionally roomy for passengers.

The Ioniq 6 is a refined and pleasant car to drive, though its ride can be firm on rougher surfaces. Its standout feature is its technology, including an 800V electrical system that allows for ultra-fast charging (10-80% in around 18 minutes) and vehicle-to-load (V2L) capability, which lets you power external devices from the car’s battery. Running costs are low thanks to its high efficiency, and even entry-level models are generously equipped. While some interior materials feel a bit cheap, the overall package of futuristic style, advanced tech, and efficiency makes it a very appealing electric vehicle.

Best for: Tech-savvy drivers who value unique design, cutting-edge fast-charging capabilities, and excellent efficiency in an EV.

Not ideal for: Buyers who prioritise a comfortable ride above all else, require the most premium-feeling interior, or need maximum boot practicality.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Ioniq 6 if: You want an electric car that stands out with unique styling, offers class-leading charging speeds, high efficiency, and a spacious cabin.

Consider alternatives if: A plush, comfortable ride, the most premium cabin materials, or a large, practical boot opening are your top priorities.

Competitive Position: The Hyundai Ioniq 6 is a highly desirable electric executive car that blends futuristic styling with genuinely innovative technology. While its firm ride and some interior trim choices mean it doesn't lead the class in every area, its superb efficiency, ultra-fast charging, and distinctive looks make it a compelling alternative to the more conventional choices from BMW, Tesla, and Mercedes-Benz.
