Hyundai IONIQ 6 to ship 614 km WLTP

Hyundai Motor Firm introduced that its IONIQ 6 electrified streamliner will ship as much as 614 km (382 miles) of all-electric vary per cost (77.4-kWh battery with 2WD, 18-inch tires), in line with the Worldwide Harmonized Mild Car Take a look at Process (WLTP). With WLTP-rated vitality consumption as little as 13.9 kWh/100 km (53-kWh battery with 2WD, 18-inch tires), IONIQ 6 can be some of the energy-efficient electrical autos (EV) available on the market when it goes on sale later this yr in choose markets in Europe and subsequent yr in North America.

Hyundai mentioned that IONIQ 6’s all-electric vary efficiency is made attainable largely by Hyundai Motor Group’s devoted structure for EVs, Electrical International Modular Platform (E-GMP), and the electrified streamliner’s ultra-low wind resistance.

E-GMP delivers optimum electrical efficiency and gives 800V ultra-fast charging from 10 to 80 % in 18 minutes and helps 400V charging with out the necessity for added elements or adapters. With E-GMP, IONIQ 6 is usually a workstation or a transportable energy financial institution on wheels, creating new utilization situations to suit clients’ various, on-the-go existence.

Hyundai Motor maximized IONIQ 6’s all-electric driving vary by intensive aerodynamic design and engineering work. The automobile’s drag coefficient of 0.21 is the bottom within the firm’s automobile lineup and one of many lowest within the trade.

The mannequin’s streamlined look and varied design parts, resembling an lively air flap, wheel air curtains, built-in rear spoiler and wheel hole reducers, considerably enhanced IONIQ 6’s aerodynamics efficiency. Particularly, wheel hole reducers decrease the empty house between the entrance bumper and tires to enhance aerodynamic efficiency across the wheel wells.

This Hyundai invention made it attainable for the electrified streamliner to supply an extended wheelbase for passengers’ driving consolation whereas concurrently overcoming the aerodynamics challenges attributable to its quick entrance overhang.
