The Hyundai Ioniq 6, which was born from a project that will attract attention with its design, is the second member of the product range that is still being formed.
With the wind behind it over the Ioniq 5, Hyundai, which has put the password to the top in the electric car competition, finally launched the second model of the family in mass production form. brought it to us. The South Korean manufacturer, which has brought the project, which was introduced as a concept in 2020 under the name of “Prophecy”, with its latest dynamics as of today, will have brought the first electric sedan of the family to the streets. The Hyundai Ioniq 6, which got rid of its veils as a project that will make a name for itself on the design side, is also the most aerodynamic car the brand has ever produced, with its friction coefficient announced as 0.21 cd. The fact that the world record in this section is set by the Mercedes EQS with 0.20 cd also proves how high the claim of the Ioniq 6 is.
Key details about the Hyundai Ioniq 6
It is possible to say that Hyundai, which touches different points in character in almost every model, continues its philosophy in this project as well. We see that the Ioniq 6, which is completely different from the character of the Ioniq 5, takes us to the design period of the 1930s, which this time was shaped by the focus of aircraft, and has been carried into production, faithful to its concept. The car, which has futuristic lines, will reach end users with a length of 4,855 millimeters, a width of 1,880 millimeters, a height of 1,495 millimeters and a wheelbase of 2,950 millimeters. It is also possible to put the Elantra’s 4,650 millimeters length, 1,825 millimeters width and 1,430 millimeters height values side by side in order to better visualize the model in minds.
We can’t help but open a separate bracket for the cockpit of the car. The driver and multimedia screens are designed as a composite in a single frame, and a total of 24 inches of usable space awaits users in the panel. In addition, the line of the console, which is emphasized in the “S” form, as one goes towards the passenger compartment, is among the design interpretations that go beyond the traditions. Hyundai’s front also supports the sustainability principle with the materials used in the cabin of the Ioniq 6. The combination of materials obtained from the recycling of used pet bottles, vegan leather and fishing nets is used in this model for the first time in the Ioniq brand.

For the Ioniq 6, which is built on the E-GMP platform, not all numerical data have been shared for now. On the other hand, it is possible to draw a certain framework over the other members of the group built on the same infrastructure. For the model, which is expected to come with a battery capacity of 58 kWh in its base version, it will not be a surprise to position the unit with a capacity of 77.4 kWh at the top. It is also among the questions of the day how this battery, which allows a range of around 480 kilometers in other vehicles, will perform better with this design character shaped on efficiency.

We expect to see single and dual electric motor combinations on the listings for the Ioniq 6. The car, which is likely to have about 230 horsepower and 350 Nm of torque with rear-wheel drive in its single-engine version, can increase to 330 horsepower and 605 Nm of torque with the other electric unit engaged. Along with the dual electric unit, the four-wheel power transmission will also be activated. The information that Hyundai is working for the “N” and Shooting Brake versions is also among the valuable information as much as the introduction of the car. With the N version of the Ioniq 6 coming to life, it is easy to see the upper limits of 580 hp at the peak of performance. Production of the Ioniq 6, which will be in front of us again in the coming days with clearer details, both numerically and visually, will begin this year. For the first deliveries, the first quarter of 2023 is indicated.
