Hyundai is excited to launch its second electric vehicle (EV) made in , the IONIQ 6, from its Hyundai Motor Group Innovation Centre in Singapore (HMGICS) in Jurong. This follows the earlier of the IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 5 robotaxi.

Cutting-edge production technology

The IONIQ 6 benefits from Hyundai’s state-of-the-art automated cell-based production platform at HMGICS. Available in both COE Cat A and Cat B variants, it offers four trim levels: Inspiration (77 kWh, Cat B), Prestige (77 kWh, Cat B), Prestige (53 kWh, Cat A), and Exclusive (53 kWh, Cat A).

Enhanced range for IONIQ 6

The IONIQ 6 aims to address this issue with an improved range. Hyundai states that the 77kWh battery in the long-range Prestige model provides a WLTP range of up to 614km, a notable improvement over the IONIQ 5’s similar model, which had a range of 507km with the same battery capacity.

Partnerships for better EV support
