The 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 is a superb sedan but is it good enough to pull buyers away from the Tesla Model 3? car auto cars
don’t really do the design justice. Like the Ioniq 5, it is quite an eyeful when you first see it but as you look closer, you’ll begin to notice and appreciate the flowing lines. It’s surprisingly big in person, measuring 4,855 mm long, making it quite a bit longer than the Ioniq 5 which is 4,635 mm and the Tesla Model 3 that is 4,694 mm .
Speaking of the tailgate, there’s no doubt that the most striking element of the Ioniq 6’s design is the rear fascia. Immediately catching the eye is the full-width LED light bar consisting of dozens of square LEDs that continue Hyundai’s ‘Pixel’ theme first introduced with the Ioniq 5. There is then a second light bar incorporated within the spoiler stretching out from the rear window, although this one is only triggered when you hit the brakes.
A handful of key elements distinguish the Ioniq 6 Epiq from the dual-motor Techniq. For example, it comes standard with a battery conditioning system to heat the battery in cold conditions for improved DC charging and performance. It also has a heat pump and perhaps the most significant change of them all, digital side mirrors in place of traditional mirrors.
It’s worth noting that shoppers won’t need to splurge on the flagship model if they want all of Hyundai’s latest driving assistance systems, security features, interior technologies, nor the thumping 8-speaker Bose audio system.
Located directly in front of the minimalist steering wheel is a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster while next to it is a 12.3-inch infotainment display. We must applaud Hyundai for finding the perfect mix of physical buttons and switches with touch displays in the Ioniq 6. On the steering wheel, for example, there are physical buttons and there are also prominent buttons on the dashboard that serve as infotainment and HVAC shortcuts.
