The facelifted Hyundai Ioniq 6 is on sale in the UK from £33,240, and Hyundai says Premium and N Line RWD versions qualify for the £3,750 Electric Car Grant. Deliveries start in early 2027.
The line-up
Premium 84 kWh RWD: £33,240 with grant, 229PS, up to 422 miles, 4.6 miles/kWh, 0–62 mph in 7.4 seconds.
N Line 84 kWh RWD: from £36,240 with grant, with 20-inch wheels and sports trim.
N Line AWD: from £43,490, 325PS, 0–62 mph in 5.1 seconds, up to 354 miles, per EV Fleet World.
N Line Evo RWD £43,270 (364 miles) and N Line Evo AWD £46,770 (354 miles), per EV Fleet World.
Hyundai says the 800V architecture keeps ultra-fast charging. Styling changes include a ducktail in place of the old spoiler and a new shark-nose front. Premium includes a heat pump, heated front seats and steering wheel, and over-the-air updates.
Why it matters
The Ioniq 6 is one of the Model 3's closest rivals in the UK. Its grant-eligible starting price and claimed 422-mile range put pressure on Tesla's UK pricing.
