The Hyundai IONIQ 6 bags three awards at this year’s World Car Awards — World Car of the Year, World Electric Vehicle, and World Car Design of the Year.

The IONIQ 6 is only the second entry in the company’s all-electric lineup. It fully utilizes the E-GMP architecture to provide 800-V, ultra-fast charging capabilities for a 10 to 80 percent charge in just 18 minutes.

One of the most aerodynamic and energy-efficient EVs on the market, the IONIQ 6 has an extremely low drag coefficient of just 0.21. The WLTP-rated range of the Electrified Streamliner on a single charge is 614 km 2. With 18-inch tires, the basic 2WD model obtains WLTP-rated energy consumption of 13.9 kWh/100 km.

Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology, driver assistance systems, and enhanced connection with over-the-air (OTA) software updates are just a few of the numerous elements that make up the IONIQ 6 and help provide the best in-car experience, sustainably.

The roomy and ergonomic cabin makes the most of the 2,950 mm wheelbase to offer a variety of empowering features, including as Electric Active Sound Design (e-ASD), Dual Color Ambient Lighting, Speed Sync Lighting, and EV Performance Tune-up, to improve the electric mobility experience.
