Ultra-fast charging ✅ Big battery ✅ Plush interior ✅ Big boot ✅ The Ioniq 6 seems to tick most of the major boxes on paper, but what’s it like in real life? Our verdict is in -
Of course, the only issue is that there aren’t that many ultra-fast chargers around the UK and it’ll be a while until they’re as abundant as Tesla’s brilliant Supercharger network. Hopefully, by the time the Ioniq 6 arrives in the UK in early 2023, they’ll be much more common.
In the UK, the Ioniq 6 will be offered with both a single motor version that is rear-wheel-drive and a dual motor version that offers all-wheel-drive. Only the single motor version can achieve that 382-mile range if you tick the right option boxes . The twin motor version produces 329bhp, and delivers that familiar instant hit of power electric cars offer when you prod the accelerator. It's capable of achieving 0-62mph in 5.1sec, with plenty of power available when needed. There's also an artificial 'spaceship-like' noise system for people who think EVs are too quiet, which you can set to match the speed of the car. It's a bit of fun, but we think it could grate over time.
The similarities to the Ioniq 5 end when it comes to suspension. Where the Ioniq 5 is soft-riding and wafts along, the Ioniq 6 is firmer, and closer to the Model 3. It still feels smoother than the latter, though, dealing with potholes and other imperfections far better. There is a slight thud when you head through larger holes in the road, but even some truly tough bits of road and awkward speed bumps don't substantially unsettle the machine.
