The power consumption of the 53kWh customary battery with 18-inch tire and RWD motor possibility is estimated to be lower than 14 kWh/100 km, in line with WLTP. This makes IONIQ 6 one of the crucial energy-efficient autos out there.
IONIQ 6’s E-GMP structure can assist each 400V and 800V charging infrastructures, with 800-V charging as customary; it might probably accommodate 400V charging with out the necessity for added parts or adapters. With a 350kW charger, IONIQ 6 can cost from 10 p.c to 80 p.c in 18 minutes.
The IONIQ 6 takes benefit of E-GMP to offer a particularly lengthy, 2,950-mm wheelbase, supported by a alternative of 20-inch or 18-inch wheels. With an total size of 4,855 mm, IONIQ 6’s 1,880-mm width and 1,495-mm peak give it a distinctively modern and trendy look.
IONIQ 6’s customized driving expertise is additional enhanced by the EV Efficiency Tune-up system, which permits the motive force to regulate steering effort, motor energy, accelerator pedal sensitivity and driveline mode freely. Drivers can create a wide range of totally different mixtures with only a few button clicks to satisfy their particular person wants.
IONIQ 6, like IONIQ 5 earlier than it, offers a vehicle-to-load (V2L) operate that enables clients to cost any electrical gadgets—splendid for powering requirements throughout an influence outage, tenting or out of doors initiatives. V2L is enabled utilizing an obtainable accent adaptor and goes into the skin charging port. Along with the skin energy outlet, there’s a second outlet beneath the again row seat for charging laptops, telephones and different gadgets.
IONIQ 6’s modular touchscreen dashboard integrates a 12-inch full-touch infotainment show and 12-inch digital cluster that homes superior applied sciences for an enhanced digital consumer expertise that may be personalized to satisfy their wants.
IONIQ 6’s infotainment system offers real-time journey radius mapping based mostly on the present state of cost. The system’s linked automobile providers additionally assist search and plan one of the best route to incorporate a charging station alongside the way in which.
IONIQ 6 is supplied with the following degree of Hyundai SmartSense, Superior Driver Help Techniques.
-
Freeway Driving Help 2 (HDA 2) helps to keep up a set distance and pace from the car forward when driving on a freeway and helps to heart the car within the lane whereas driving, regardless that a curve. In case the car on the facet is driving very shut, it assists to regulate the car’s path, to not be in peril. If driving above a sure pace, holding the steering wheel, and working the flip sign change mechanically modifications the lane within the indicated course.
-
Good Cruise Management (SCC) helps to keep up distance from the car forward and drive at a pace set by the motive force by reflecting the discovered driving type of the motive force. When SCC is inactive, the operate learns the motive force’s driving type. When SCC is activated, the operate stops studying and drives mechanically by mimicking the discovered driving type.
-
Ahead Collision-Avoidance Help (FCA) helps to keep away from collisions with objects in entrance of the car whereas driving. If a previous car all of the sudden slows, or if a forward-collision danger is detected, corresponding to a stopped car or a pedestrian, it offers a warning. After the warning, if the chance of collision stays, it might probably help with emergency braking. Whereas driving, if there’s a danger of collision with a bike owner forward, or with an oncoming car whereas turning at an intersection, it might probably assist help with emergency braking.
-
The SEL and Restricted trims consists of enhanced capabilities of Junction Crossing, Lane-Altering Oncoming and Lane-Altering Aspect together with Evasive Steering Help. Whereas driving by way of an intersection if there’s a danger of collision with oncoming autos from the left or proper, it mechanically assists with emergency braking. When altering lanes whereas driving, if there’s a danger of collision with an oncoming car within the subsequent lane or a previous car within the subsequent lane, it mechanically assists with avoidance steering. And whereas driving, if there’s a danger of collision with a pedestrian, partially within the car’s supposed path, it mechanically assists with avoidance steering.
-
Different semi-autonomous driving options embrace Clever Velocity Restrict Help (ISLA), which adjusts car pace to match the pace restrict, and Excessive Beam Help (HBA), which might help change excessive beam lights on and off at evening for approaching autos within the reverse oncoming lane.
IONIQ 6 has a number of driver attention-related capabilities. Driver Consideration Warning (DAW) analyzes the motive force’s consideration whereas driving and warns when needed. It offers a warning when indicators of driver inattentiveness are detected, and recommends a relaxation if wanted. Throughout a cease, the motive force is alerted if the main car departs.
A number of capabilities work in tandem to assist keep away from collisions in a wide range of driving conditions. Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Help (BCA) helps keep away from collisions on the rear facet of the car when altering lanes. When working the flip sign to vary lanes, if there’s a danger of collision detected with a rear-side car, it might probably present a warning. If exiting a parallel parking spot and there’s a danger of collision detected with a rear-side car, it might probably help with emergency braking.
One other operate, Blind-Spot View Monitor (BVM), shows video of the blind-spot view for a protected lane change. When working the flip sign change, it shows video of the blind-spot view for the course indicated.
IONIQ 6 additionally assures the protection of backseat passengers with Protected Exit Warning (SEW), which offers a warning when a car is approaching from the rear-side whereas getting out of the car. When the occupant opens the door to exit the car after a cease, if an approaching car from the rear facet is detected, it offers a warning.
Quite a lot of Parking Comfort options make parking in a wide range of circumstances simpler than earlier than. Distant Good Parking Help 2 (RSPA 2) helps remotely park or it helps remotely exit a parking spot from exterior the car by Distant Operation. This function works for parallel, perpendicular, and even diagonal parking.
Encompass View Monitor (SVM) shows video of the scenario across the car for protected parking. Ahead/Aspect/Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Help (PCA) helps keep away from collisions with pedestrians and objects across the car whereas parking or exiting. If there’s a danger of collision with pedestrians or objects whereas parking and exiting, it offers a warning. After the warning, if the chance of collision will increase, it mechanically assists with emergency braking.
Equally, Rear Cross-Site visitors Collision-Avoidance Help (RCCA) helps keep away from collisions with oncoming autos on the left or proper facet of the car whereas reversing. If there’s a danger of collision with an oncoming car on the left or proper facet whereas reversing, it offers a warning. After the warning, if the chance of collision will increase, it mechanically assists with emergency braking.
IONIQ 6 is Hyundai model’s first mannequin to supply the Over-the-Air (OTA) Software program Replace function for varied controllers. This know-how permits drivers to improve the car’s controllers for electrical gadgets, autonomous driving, battery, and extra, to offer a safer and extra handy driving expertise. Drivers may replace maps and media software program with the OTA operate.
IONIQ 6 is slated to start manufacturing within the third quarter of 2022. The market launch schedule will likely be introduced later.
