Forget Its Retro Styling: The Hyundai IONIQ 6 is AMAZING
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
We've driven plenty of different electric vehicles this year, but as 2023 comes to a close, we're spending time with a car that irked us when it was revealed last year. A car that we didn't think we'd like on paper.
But everything about the IONIQ 6 surprised us - and in a good way.
Here's how its retro-styling, and super-efficient design kept us wanting more.

I love what Hyundai has been doing with its design. They're absolutely killing it with the "retro" style. I very much prefer this to the uninspired Tesla models. Also I love the fact that it is a normal sedan. Not an oversized, overweight, inefficient SUV or cross-over.
I am seriously considering trading my Bolt EUV for the Ionic 6 next year. I am so glad you did this review because I really trust your thoughts and opinions as reviewers.

I prefer the IONIQ 6 control layout over Tesla's central computer screen. I prefer tactile controls that don't require you to take your eyes off the road to change settings. Going through layers of menus on a computer screen is antithetical to safe driving, IMO.

You CAN adjust the seat while driving, you can't use the MEMORY seat adjustment while driving and you'll find that's true in most cars with memory seats. Trust me the last thing you want is to hit the wrong memory button when you're 6'2 and your partner is 5'8 and have it start adjusting on you while going down the highway at 75mph
Excellent review! The two of you touched upon just about anything and everything one would want to consider when looking at the Ioniq6.
This is the EV which truly tempts me from my current Kia Soul EV. It may not have the cargo room, but man, this really strikes my tickle.
I like how you continue to show the small details(AC outlet) while talking about other things; packs a lot of information using multiple senses simultaneously; well done!
This looks like an actual car, not like most "cars" these days which look like military vehicles.
Looks like a cool car but the lack of a rear hatch is pretty much a deal breaker for me. I don't so much care if it's shaped like a sedan but the trunk restricts what you can carry far too much.
I would buy this car with all the bells and whistles but I would spec it with the 18 inch wheels and if they refuse, I would buy some light weight aftermarket 18 inch wheels like I did for my Mini Cooper electric.
That was some damn good B Roll. Great review, I love my Ioniq 6
Excited that you finally got a chance to review the Ioniq 6! On the topic of 90's styling, I wonder when we'll see a custom Lisa Frank wrap.

But it isn’t ready yet, and lots of people still like to _drive_ their car. (My wife doesn’t even use cruise control, much less any more advanced driver-assistance systems.

@@markplott4820It depends what you mean by "better." FSD still requires human intervention, even if relatively infrequently. I understand the average U.S. driver has one accident roughly every 165,000 miles. When FSD can do exactly the same tasks as a human for 165,000 miles without disengagement, intervention or collision I will consider categorical use of the term "better." Until then, FSD is limited. I think it would be more appropriate to refer to FSD as limited self driving. Is it true that FSD disengages seconds before an inevitable collision? IF so, I would be skeptical of any Tesla statistics such as average FSD miles per collision.
Now if only it came in a station wagon version.. That would also be the same 'retro' era look/feel, but with even more flexibility of a hatchback.

Regarding the charging, the car does never hit 350kW of course but is limited by the current it can take. And that's a nice thing that both cars have a different voltage, but take the same current and can therefore charge from 10% to 80% in the same time as chargetime is mostly dependent on the current, and not so much the voltage. The fact that their is a voltage difference also shows the brilliance of the architecture as it can handle a wide range of voltages. If only they, and Tesla, could fix the charging at superchargers. And if you have a small battery, a standard range car, you don't even lose much time at a 400V/150kW charger, it will hit that 150kW and still charge from 10% to 80% in less than 25 minutes.
Legit this looks like a great car. So happy to see something that isn't a crossover. I'm a sedan fan through and through, I don't need something bigger. And the fact that Hyundai has finally made a more affordable EV, that isn't a crossover, is very tempting. Now if only I could find a place to charge it at my apartment...
The B roll is some damn good car porn. Love the DS graphic overlays.
I was questioning this car at first. Now I'm kinda liking it. Simular to my issues with the bolt, I wasn't sure on the looks, now its kinda growing on me.
Production values are always so amazing with your videos! And of course, the content is always wonderful. I appreciate all you do.
Kate and Nikki, this was truly delightful. I had my eye on an Ioniq 6 but it was out of my price range. Glad to see the price coming down on it. It is a very fun car to drive and I love it's - as you say - aspirational retro look and feel.

On the wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay front, we are finally seeing some movement. The new Hyundai Kona is the first car with a widescreen infotainment system from the group that does actually support it and acoording to the release notes, the most recent update for the Ioniq 6 will bring it to that car as well. Haven't gotten that update myself yet, so can't confirm that it actually works. The reason it took so long is not because it was not supported by the system, it was a disagreement with either Apple or Google (haven't seen which of the 2 demands it) that when you have a wireless device connected and you press the physical map button in the car, one of those 2 demands that you launch their platform instead of the built-in navigation. And Hyundai refused to do that. Not sure what the final solution is.
Well, you did it. I didn't like the side look of the Ioniq 6, but that cinematic intro looked amazing - maybe that will be my Bolt replacement if no other sedan like car comes out by then
Loved the production work on this video 👍
There are not many half-hour review videos I willingly sit through, but I very much enjoy riding along with these two. The conversation is just so engrossing and spiced with lovely humor. Thanks for all you do!
I would love it as a Sport Wagon!
The shots of this car in this review are some of the best I’ve seen. Finally I GET the design. Thanks for showing it off so well.
8:44 One of the other cost saving benefits to having the window switches in the middle is so they don’t have to engineer and make different wiring harnesses and door panels for LHD and RHD markets. This was very common with European and Japanese cars in the 1980s and 90s.
The rear styling with the sloping trunk reminds me of the 1978 Buick Century Salon or Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon.
Love Liberte bought it. You all have good taste in music, loved Spam Aluminium too!

Boggles my mind. I think it is one of the ugliest cars on the road. Truly a subjective thing.
LOL! "Like they discovered gray and plastic at the same time and got a little over-excited..." 😂 Oh I do enjoy your ride-along reviews together!
A lot of people think this car is ugly but then turn around and praise old school Porsches.
I still really love the look of the GM EV1, and this looks like a highly evolved version of one, so I’m definitely saving my pennies for one of these.
The sedan shape was designed specifically because it is the best shape for handling and aerodynamics/energy efficiency and it is frustrating that there aren't many in the range of EVs.
I'm a Model Y owner and while I personally like the Tela ecosystem over many others I have to say that other brands and offerings out there do have some compelling vehicles that will appeal to many buyers not wanting the noticeability of a Tesla or Tesla's long term unchanged styling. Some want more levers and buttons while I personally prefer minimalism. I love the Ioniq 6 because it just looks like an everyday car. I recently come to think this about the Nissan Ariya. Even the VW ID4 has a general classic vehicle look to it that isn't trying to be as different as others we may see on the road where we go...yep, that's an EV. I think to a degree while the Ioniq 6 does have a retro 90s look to it, it looks like a mashup between a 911 and a Hyundai Elantra/Sonata. That's not really a bad thing. We know why they designed the car that way. Similar to how the Mercedes concept EQXX is designed to achieve low drag. I've seen the Ioniq 6 on the roads and it looks like a fun and capable car. It doesn't have enough interior space for me but neither did the Model 3 for that matter which is why I chose the larger Model Y. I do think this vehicle is going to be simply perfect for a lot of buyers wanting a sporty look, efficiency and a decent amount of range.
Thanks
Apparently, it was the Saab 92001 and not so much the Citroen DS that was the main inspiration for the design team. Gorgeous like the DS, nevertheless.
Retro 80s, Retro 90s but the DS21 is from the '60s :)
I'd like to test drive one. A mechanic who posted a thorough online review of the Ioniq 6 thought that the cooling systems were overly complex and not as efficient as those in Teslas.

Tesla’s systems are just much better designs. I don’t think most of the competition will have a system in 5 years that matches today’s Teslas.
That’s one thing I really appreciated about the Nissan Ariya: you could order the top trim with the most efficient rim/tire combo.
I didnt understand what you didnt like about this car way back then. This is the ideal Evolved vehicle, efficient transport for the majority. Reviewing for the new-car buyers, the commuters, especially if you got to review the lower spec, long rang with efficient aero wheels.
I would love it, but my partner (who's very artistic and visually oriented) instantly vetoed it. Hyundai, please make it an actual hatchback and get rid of the 'bent' line that runs down the length of the car.
The range of my AWD, 20 inch wheels, at 100kph is 285 miles going up and down mountains. 320 miles on flat ground.
I think it would be really fun to see the te staff compete to get the best laptime! Is that in your budget? Maybe the BBC needs a new car show to fund?
Splendid review. Lots of familiar landmarks too! There's a lot to like here but I'm not sad to have the Ioniq 5 for the hatch versatility. Calling it an SUV is a disservice IMO.
"Connect the cable." Does that mean that I can plug an aux cable from my MP3 player and listen to music in a Hyundai IONIQ like I can in my Kia Soul? That would be awesome!
Do not understand the retro styling comments about the 90s, but then weird comparisons to the 1960s DS6. Like, these could not be more different.
The autosteering of my ioni5 is swaying. Is it different with the ioniq6 or a software issue that both have? Space-wise I would always prefer the ioniq5 as we get 2 foldable/segmented kayaks and a kid in there.

Amazon has several key fob cover options for the Ioniq 6. I guess it's a common gripe.
Still not sure about the styling but I'd get the Ioniq 5.
Can't figure out Hyundai with their wireless Carplay/Auto. My Santa Cruz has wireless, but if I went to the bigger "upgraded" infotainment, it loses the wireless. It was one of the reasons I chose the trim level I did. It's very odd...
Reminds me of a 90s Saab 900 in the hatch area.
If the small battery variant only has a 480V pack, and it can do the 18 minute charge trick, does it not mean that the 800V pack faster charging brouhaha was complete horse54i7? Is the 18 minute charge process just abusing the battery? Bjorn seems to think so. Has anyone run EV6 taxi service to examine the degradation from hypercharging?

I am thankful the Hyundai Group has been having success with EVs. Watching GM, Ford, VW, and others struggle has been frustrating because it is bad for the consumer to just have one or maybe two choices. I was really hoping the switch to EVs for the world would bring in more companies so that consumers had more than a few options, but as time marched on I started feeling like the choices will be BYD and Tesla. While I agree the Ioniq 6 would have cool hatch, I get the Hyundai Group already had a couple of EV hatchback options. It has been interesting to see the reactions to back end of the Ioniq 6. It seems to divide people. I am going to be interested in seeing how the Model 3 refresh does here in the US, because in China and Europe it has gotten very high praise. Many saying it is the best vehicle you can buy for the money, ICE or EV. I think it is another example of products getting better for consumers. I would love to see TE do a EV progress review starting at 2010 and jumping 5 years forward and keep going until you hit 2025. I get so tired of hearing ICE say how much better it is when ICE has had massive R&D funding for a hundred years. ICE is a very mature tech, which means it is hard to get much improvements at this point. While electric vehicles may have appeared a century ago, the kind of funding ICE has enjoyed has only been seen in the past decade. This makes EV tech a young tech or under developed tech, so the infusion of massive funding and resources into EV tech is getting much better ROI than ICE. I think seeing where EV tech was at in 2010, 2015, 2020, and 2025, would paint a very clear picture of why EVs are the future and the US will be most EVs somewhere in the future and why "mainstream" people in the 2030's will likely be wondering anyone is still buying ICE vehicles.

I don’t get the comparisons to a 90s car. The first time I saw this car I immediately thought of a 1980s Porsche 911 (my dream car as a kid; I owned a remote control version that only went forward and a rounded reverse - Ahh, 80s kids toy tech). Once someone compared the profile-to-rear swoop to a Saab, I also saw that if I squinted. But it’s definitely Porsche (although Hyundai described it as their take on 1940s car design). I wish Hyundai had stylized the front a little more because it already looks a little dated to me.…I think that’s something they should update in the next refresh.
Y’all keep saying 90’ but I get 80’s vibes from it.
