 Hyundai Ioniq

The Hyundai IONIQ is the first car in the world to offer 3 different power outputs within one body type. A beautifully dynamic and innovative design packed with all the latest technologies to give you a responsive, smooth and modern driving experience. This efficient 5 door family car is truly one of a kind and the first of its kind and is leading the way for the eco-generation. Hyundai believes that electric cars should offer you all the driving dynamics and handling characteristics that make driving a real pleasure, all this alongside the economic and environmental benefits. Hyundai have committed to finding sustainable solutions so much so, that they have been named the Greenest Manufacturer 2017 by News Fleet. This IONIQ series is no exception to this, and are definitely forerunners on the electric generation.

Exterior Design


The IONIQ is designed with efficiency in mind, this and the aim of being eye-catching and attractive too. The sleek and fluid design has combined all the best parts of traditional car design. Concentrating very much on an aerodynamic design, with a smooth sloping roof and fluid body creases, Hyundai has achieved a class-leading 0.24 coefficient drag. The sleek contours, as well as being aerodynamic, also work to minimise air resistance and emissions.

Starting at the nose of the car you’ll find the smooth and dynamic front grille with the smart and modern addition of LED headlights and daytime running lights. A squat and purposeful stance highlights the low centre of gravity, and the rigid steel frame made of high strength steel and aluminium is indicative of its high performance and agile handling.

Due to some clever weight saving techniques, the IONIQ weighs in at only 1,370kg, making it all the more efficient. It is one of the most aerodynamic vehicles on the market incorporating very smart features to achieve this, such as the active air flaps in the grille which open and close automatically in stages to enhance performance and also air intakes that channel it over the front wheels to minimise drag.

Interior Highlights

The Hyundai IONIQ has plenty of room for 5 adults and is designed in a contemporary and aesthetically pleasing way. Inside the IONIQ you’ll find the sleek, modern and attractive design continued. With a clutter-free dashboard made of lightweight recycled plastic which has actually reduced the use of plastics by 20%. Combinations of powered wood and volcanic stone with black cloth and leather seat trims give the IONIQ  a really individual and modern finish. The dark materials are broken up by electric-blue striped detailing, which frames the touchscreen, the vents and upholstery. The IONIQ is great for space and boasts to be a class-leader due to the storage of the batteries under the seats of the Hybrid and Plug-In. Easily and comfortably seating taller passengers, with a boot capacity of 443 litres and 1410 litres with the seats folded down, you are provided with a really practical and versatile space. The drivers and passenger seat are both manually adjustable and the driver's seat has the added bonus of lumbar support which ensures a really comfortable ride.

Engines

All the IONIQs come as a beautifully designed vehicle that is the same across the range. The difference between these three IONIQ’s is their power which is divided into three categories; Hybrid, Electric and Plug-in. Before deciding on which one is best for you it's important to understand what this means, starting off with the different powertrains.

Hyundai IONIQ Hybrid - combines an advanced electric motor with 1.6 GDi petrol engine and recharges via this.
Hyundai IONIQ Electric - 100% IONIQ electric 88 kW motor powered by an efficient 28kWh Lithium-Ion Polymer battery. 
Hyundai IONIQ All-New Plug-In - 45 kW electric motor powered by a battery that recuperates energy on the move and recharged via charging cable, also works together with a 1.6 GDi petrol engine. This combination comes with some impressive stats to go with it: CO2 emissions of 26g/km, 257 mpg.

The long-awaited PHEV made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show joining the recently launched Hyundai Hybrid and Electric. It combines a 104bhp petrol engine and a 55bhp electric motor. It can be driven to an electric-only mode which gives you up to 31 miles of driving, all emission-free, which is ideal for a daily commute. The motor, a 45kW electric, is powered by a battery which recovers energy on the move and is recharged via a charging cable. When working in conjunction with the 1.6 GDi petrol engine, there is a noticeable performance increase with unrestricted distance.
