The Hyundai Ioniq 6 seems to be a trend-setting vehicle that exceeds the Tesla Model 3 to an astounding degree, based on initial impressions.

[{"selector":"#anim-f195b58d-8320-47b1-b774-e004d9bf72f5 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-7.730471465549198%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-7855ded9-4833-4087-baef-b4081f2aaaab","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e14fff6c-e898-41b9-8517-1cfec9c2a61c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 136.86362%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Also, it seems better up close. Hyundai is unable to divulge pricing at this time,

but based on IonIQ 6 data for 2023, it looks to be in a solid competitive position against the Tesla Model 3.

Although Hyundai has published the range for each of the other IONIQ 6 models,

the company is presently withholding this information. The battery pack of the discounted variant is smaller at 53,0 kWh.

Hyundai has not yet published the horsepower estimates for the rear-wheel-drive, single-motor option,

but if the Ioniq 5 is any clue, that should be roughly 228 horsepower.

Until an N-model is available, the Ioniq 6 range remains incomplete. If you're searching for performance,

the Model 3 and Polestar 2 are your best bets, but if all you need is a capable, attractive EV in this market, the Hyundai Ioniq 6 EV is impossible to ignore.
