Following IONIQ 5, Hyundai will introduce IONIQ 6, an electric saloon, and IONIQ 7, a large electric SUV introducing a wealth of features and specifications set to change the future of electric vehicles thanks to their E-GMP (Electric-Global Modular Platform) base.
The platform is what makes the IONIQ 5 electric car tick, and aims to dispel common electric car fears: namely range and charging speed. The first choice is between rear- or all-wheel drive setups, while the second choice is for either a 58kWh or 72.6kWh battery.
What really sets the IONIQ 5 apart is its ability to accept 400V and 800V charging as standard. This is the real key to the car’s potential genius, with a 10-80% recharge possible in 18 minutes on a 350kW rapid charger, such as those offered by the Ionity network. Look at this another way; that’s 62 miles of range from just a five-minute recharge.
