Hyundai IONIQ facelift

Compact Hatchback

Product Gallery

Product Overview

Hyundai IONIQ facelift is a compact hatchback in production from 2019 to 2022. It was powered by a hybrid drivetrain, a plug-in hybrid drivetrain, and a battery-electric drivetrain. This makes it similar in product strategy to the Honda Clarity, though the Honda boasts a more revolutionary fuel-cell option.

Overall, the IONIQ is rather ugly and uninspiring. It is a good choice only for those who want to spend less on cars.

Reviewer score 55% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autocar have found:

The Ioniq Electric’s battery has been boosted to 38kWh, up from 28kWh. The permanent magnet electric motor driving the front wheels has been exchanged for a more efficient version. The combination has helped extend range more than 30% over the old car. A newly-fitted 7.2kW onboard charger can charge the battery to 80% in 57 minutes on a 50kW charger, or from flat to full in little over six hours.

Pros

Uprated powertrain
Decent range
Improved infotainment

Cons

Slightly heavier than the outgoing model

Reviewer score 64% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autoexpress have found:

Hyundai's first attempt at a full-on eco car family is a strong one. The Ioniq comes in hybrid, plug-in and full electric forms. All three offer plenty of practicality at an affordable price with lots of kit. However, the electric motor and petrol engine in the hybrid variants aren't integrated as well as in the Toyota Prius, and the car isn't as comfortable, either.

Pros

Cheaper than Prius
Lots of standard equipment

Cons

Alternatives offer more practicality
Not as comfortable as Prius

Reviewer score 61% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from cnet have found:

Hyundai's Ioniq is no performance car by any stretch of the imagination, but it never feels underpowered. Power is sent to the front wheels via a six-speed, dual-clutch gearbox. It's the most efficient non-plug-in vehicle available in the US, with an EPA rating of up to 58 miles per gallon.

Pros

Excellent fuel economy
Comfortable, quiet cabin
Excellent tech

Cons

Dull interior
Lackluster infotainment system

Reviewers from pcmag have found:

The 2020 Ioniq PHEV uses the same basic UX that's been in Hyundai vehicles for about a decade. The dashboard has been redesigned so that the climate controls are now located on a new glossy black panel. Infotainment connectivity also hasn't changed since it's all through Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

Pros

Powerful six-speed automatic transmission
Good fuel economy

Cons

Lack of EV-only range
Lackluster infotainment
