Electric vehicles are growing in popularity each year. One of the reasons for this is that manufacturers are producing more electric vehicle models, giving consumers more options. Hyundai is one of those manufacturers, with several all-electric vehicles now available. If you're interested in getting a new EV, now is the perfect time to explore the lineup of Hyundai EVs to see which one is perfect for your lifestyle.
Benefits of New EVs
Owning a new electric vehicle offers numerous advantages. For starters, there are lower operating costs, as electricity is generally cheaper than gasoline, and EVs require less maintenance due to fewer moving parts. The advanced technology features in modern EVs, like autonomous driving capabilities and state-of-the-art infotainment systems, enhance the driving experience. Charging at home adds convenience, allowing you to start each day with a full battery without frequent trips to the gas station.
Moreover, many regions offer tax incentives or rebates for purchasing an EV, which can offset the initial cost and make the investment more appealing. Finally, EVs produce zero tailpipe emissions, significantly reducing your carbon footprint and contributing to cleaner air. These combined benefits make EVs a smart, eco-friendly choice for modern drivers.
Hyundai EV Lineup
Hyundai offers some exciting electric vehicle options at affordable prices:
2024 Hyundai Kona
If you've been looking to get an EV, but the price tag of some models put you off, you should explore the 2024 Hyundai Kona. The 2024 Hyundai Kona is an all-electric SUV that comes at a very affordable price without sacrificing performance or quality. With the electric Kona, you'll get a powertrain that uses front-wheel drive and a single electric motor to produce 133 horsepower, with the option to upgrade to 201 horsepower.
One area where the Kona really excels is its driving range. When equipped with the base battery pack, you'll get around 200 miles of range, while the larger battery bumps up the range to around 260 miles. Lastly, you can charge your Kona from 10% to 80% in just 43 minutes using DC charging.
2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is another all-electric SUV, but this one packs a little more luxury and performance. The standard powertrain on the Ioniq 5 consists of a single, rear-mounted electric motor that generates 168 horsepower. Pairing this with the long-range battery increases the output to 225 horsepower. Then there's an all-wheel-drive version available, which produces 320 horsepower.
As for range, it depends on your setup. The standard setup delivers around 220 miles of range, while adding the larger battery pack increases the range to 266 miles with the dual-motor setup and 303 miles with the single motor. The charging time is also much faster than the Kona, going from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes with DC fast charging.
2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6
The last all-electric model is the 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6. Unlike the Kona and the Ioniq 5, the Ioniq 6 is a sedan. It shares a powertrain with the Ioniq 5, meaning it delivers similar performance specs. You'll get 149 horsepower with the single electric motor and standard battery, while the larger battery boosts your output to 225 horsepower. Then there's a dual-motor setup that delivers 320 horsepower and comes with all-wheel drive.
In terms of driving range, you'll be able to go further than the Ioniq 5 thanks to the 6's smaller size. Expect the Ioniq 6 to get between 270 and 361 miles of range, depending on your setup. You can get up to a 58-mile advantage over the best Ioniq 5.
Cutting-Edge Technology
Inside every new Hyundai electric vehicle, you'll find a host of features that make use of the latest technologies. For example, the Hyundai Kona comes with two 12.3-inch displays that incorporate both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The Hyundai Ioniq 5 can come with an augmented reality head-up display, while the Ioniq 6 offers several layers of sound-deadening material for a quiet ride. There's also a host of safety features available with each model, including:
- Automated emergency braking
- Lane-departure warning
- Lane-keeping assist
- Adaptive cruise control
- Blind-spot monitoring
This is just a small taste of the cutting-edge technologies found inside the latest electric Hyundai vehicles. We highly recommend exploring each in person to see all that they have to offer.
