The Hyundai Ioniq is a B-segment five-door liftback manufactured and marketed by Hyundai. The nameplate Ioniq is a portmanteau of ion and unique. It is marketed as the first automobile to be offered without a standard internal combustion engine, but rather sold in hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and all-electric variants.
The Ioniq Hybrid debuted in South Korea in January 2016, with all three variants debuting at 2016 Geneva and New York auto shows. The hybrid variant launched in its home market in February 2016, followed by the electric model in July 2016. The plug-in hybrid version followed in February 2017.
Ioniq Hybrid[]
The Ioniq is Hyundai's first automobile built from scratch and specifically available as a hybrid or electric powered.
The hybrid version competes with, and surpasses in fuel economy, the previous mileage leader in the Toyota Prius. Sharing the same powertrain with the Kia Niro hybrid crossover, the Ioniq is powered by a 1.6-litre Kappa four cylinder Atkinson-cycle engine with 40% thermal efficiency capable of delivering 104 hp (78 kW) and an estimated 109 lb⋅ft (148 N⋅m) of torque alone.
The Ioniq Hybrid's electric motor additionally delivers an estimated 43 hp (32 kW) with an estimated maximum torque of 125 lb⋅ft (169 N⋅m), powered by a 1.56 kWh lithium-ion polymer battery.
The battery is positioned beneath the rear passenger seats. In combination with the 1.6-litre direct injection engine, the Ioniq Hybrid offers an estimated total system output of 139 hp (104 kW) and 195 lb⋅ft (264 N⋅m). This engine is combined with a shifting six speed dual-clutch transmission. Like many hybrids and electric cars, neither the Ioniq Hybrid nor Electric is suitable for towing a trailer.
The Ioniq uses aluminium in the hood and tailgate, reducing weight by 27 lb (12 kg) compared with conventional steel, with no measurable disadvantages in noise or vibration. With a higher usage of lightweight components and a more compact build, the cargo screen cover is about 25% lighter than the types used in other Hyundai models.
Its aerodynamic design helped lower the drag coefficient of the Ioniq down to 0.24. Excessive weight is reduced by utilization of high strength steel for the structure and aluminium for non structural components.

Ioniq Electric[]
The Hyundai Ioniq Electric is a mid-2010s limited-production all-electric version of the Ioniq that is sold only in select countries and US states. It features a 28 kWh lithium-ion polymer battery that delivers an EPA-rated range of 124 mi (200 km). Hyundai originally expected the Ioniq to deliver a range of 110 mi (180 km).
An integrated In-Cable Control Box (ICCB) also allows drivers to charge their Ioniq at a regular household outlet, but this is recommended only for use in emergencies in countries with 120 V outlets. In most countries, with 220–240 V household outlets, 100% range can be added with an overnight charge.
The charging plug of the car is located in a position where fuel fillers are normally located. The Ioniq features paddle shifters to allow drivers to choose from one of four levels of regenerative braking.[18] As of 2019, Hyundai USA sells the Ioniq Electric only [why?] in select states. [which?] It is sold by Hyundai in other countries as well, which as of December 2018 included Canada, Norway, Netherlands, Portugal[citation needed] and Switzerland. The car was discontinued in the US market for the 2022 model year.
Range and efficiency[]
Under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) four cycle test, the 2017 Ioniq Electric combined fuel economy rating is 136 mpg‑e (25.3 kWh/100 mi; 15.7 kWh/100 km).
For city driving, it is rated at 150 mpg‑e (23 kWh/100 mi; 14 kWh/100 km), and for highway it is rated at 122 mpg‑e (28 kWh/100 mi; 17.5 kWh/100 km).

Ioniq Plug-in[]
The plug-in hybrid variant was released in February 2017. It has an 8.9 kWh lithium-ion polymer battery capable of delivering an EPA-rated electric-only range of 29 mi (47 km), and an additional 601 mi (967 km) of range in hybrid mode once the electric range has been depleted. The Ioniq Plug-in combines a 45 kW (60 hp) electric motor and 1.6-L GDI four-cylinder Kappa engine with 40% thermal efficiency capable of delivering 78 kW (105 hp). The EPA efficiency rating for the Ioniq Plug-in hybrid in electric mode is 119 mpg‑e (29 kWh/100 mi; 18.0 kWh/100 km).
In ECO mode, the dual clutch transmission optimizes gear selection for efficiency, upshifting earlier to achieve better fuel economy.

Sales[]
By January 2021, from the Ioniq series around 325,500 units were sold worldwide, including 211,755 conventional hybrids and 77,972 purely electric cars, as well as 35,757 plug-in hybrid variants. From all units, 118,575 were sold to Europe and 60,354 to the USA. From the IONIQ electric model 36,772 units were sold to Europe, these are 47% or almost the half of the worldwide electric production.
