Electric vehicles are growing in popularity and for good reason. In addition to the environmental benefits and fuel savings, EVs use an efficient electric motor that can cut maintenance costs while improving performance. You can find a great selection of electric model Hyundais at Crain Hyundai of Little Rock, your local Hyundai dealer.
Basics About Electric Model Hyundais
The EV models offered by Hyundai include the IONIQ 5, IONIC 6, and KONA. Like all EVs, you save time and money by avoiding stops at the gas pump and scheduled oil changes, both unnecessary with an electric motor. Hyundai’s commitment to its electric vehicles means the use of technology such as regenerative braking, which helps recharge the battery.
Limited complimentary charging is offered on the IONIQ 5 and KONA models through an arrangement with Electrify America.
The IONIQ 6
The IONIQ 6 provides up to 361 miles on a full charge, and a 350-kW charger can bring the battery from 10 to 80 percent in less than 20 minutes. New in 2023, the IONIQ 6 is an attractive sedan that is as eye-catching as it is efficient.
An abundance of insulation, sound-deadening material, and acoustic windshield glass make the IONIQ 6 a peaceful car to drive. The front seats are easy to adjust into a range of positions and there is plenty of headroom.
The IONIQ 5
The Ioniq 5 has an estimated 303-mile range with its standard 58.0-kWh battery pack and a 266-mile range with the upgraded 77.4-kWh pack (or 303 miles with the single motor option). Rapid charging capabilities allow you to add nearly 70 miles of range with 5 minutes of charging.
The IONIQ5 is an SUV with available AWD. It offers smooth performance and its wide center of gravity gives it a great feel on the road.
The KONA
With an estimated EPA range of 258, the KONA is another SUV in Hyundai’s lineup. This subcompact choice has a strong engine that makes it fun to drive. Inside, the infotainment system is intuitive and visibility is great. Like other vehicles in Hyundai’s EV line-up, the KONA has a quick, smooth acceleration that makes it fun to drive.
What’s New at Your Hyundai Dealer in 2023
The 2022 model year was the introductory year for the IONIC 5. There were a few improvements made to the 2023 model, including a boost in range. The IONIQ 6 is new in 2023. The KONA debuted in America in 2019. Looking forward, Hyundai plans to continue its EV line, with 2024 models of the KONA and IONIQ models arriving later in the year.
