Hyundai Motor Company launched the eagerly awaited IONIQ 6
Electrified Streamliner with a digital world premiere film (https://youtu.be/GVcXwIL9OFw). As the
new model in the brand’s IONIQ all-electric lineup brand, the electrified streamliner’s array of
advanced technologies, personalized space and features and extended range redefine the
boundaries of electric mobility.
IONIQ 6 delivers an estimated all-electric range of over 610 km 1 /*, according to Worldwide
Harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) standard, as well as ultra-fast, 400-V/800-V
multi-charging capability made possible by Hyundai Motor Group’s Electric-Global Modular

array of empowering features, such as Dual Color Ambient Lighting, Speed Sync Lighting, EV
Performance Tune-up and Electric Active Sound Design (e-ASD), enhancing the electric mobility
experience.
“IONIQ 6 is the next ambitious step forward in Hyundai Motor’s strategy to accelerate its
transition to electrification and into a position as a global leader in EVs,” said Jaehoon Chang,
President and CEO, Hyundai Motor Company. “The IONIQ 6 Electrified Streamliner will provide a

Personalized interior space engineered to be easy to live with
The electrified streamliner takes advantage of E-GMP to provide an extremely long, 2,950-mm
wheelbase, supported by a choice of 20-inch or 18-inch wheels * . With an impressive overall
length of 4,855 mm, IONIQ 6’s 1,880-mm width and 1,495-mm height give it a distinctively sleek
and stylish appearance amidst a sea of lookalike EVs.
“IONIQ 6 is designed and engineered to seamlessly enhance our daily lives as space to awaken
your potential,” said Thomas Schemera, Executive Vice President, Global Chief Marketing
Officer and Head of Customer Experience Division, Hyundai Motor Company. “The innovative
interior is meticulously thought out as a cocoon-like personal space, enhanced with the latest
technologies to create a safe, fun, and stress-free driving experience. The spacious interior, with
sustainability and usability at its heart, once again represents a step forward for electric vehicles,
in line with the values of our customers.”
IONIQ 6’s interior is particularly developed to serve as a comfy and personalized hideaway. The
Dual Color Ambient Lighting allows a driver to customize the look and feel of the interior cabin by
selecting from a spectrum of 64 colours * and six pre-selected themes 2 . The Speed Sync Lighting
mode adds emotion to the driving experience by changing the brightness of the interior lighting in
the first row based on the vehicle’s speed.
The optional Relaxation Comfort Seats 3 in the first row promote leisure by simply adjusting the seat
angle. In addition, all of its seats are specifically-manufactured for all-electric models, and they
are approximately 30 percent thinner than those in other conventional models, providing more
space for passengers. There are four type-C and one type-A USB ports available to improve
customer convenience.
IONIQ 6’s personalized driving experience is further enhanced by the EV Performance Tune-up
system, which allows the driver to freely adjust steering effort, motor power, accelerator pedal
sensitivity and driveline mode. Drivers can create a variety of different combinations with just a
few button clicks to meet their individual needs.
IONIQ 6 features e-ASD, a technology that makes EVs more exciting and people-friendly. The
optimum, spaceship-like sound is added to the cabin, and the sound texture changes based on the
vehicle’s driving status.
“IONIQ 6 connects an emotional convergence of functionality with aesthetics,” said SangYup Lee,
Executive Vice President and Head of Hyundai Design Center. “The distinctive streamlined design
is the result of close cooperation between engineers and designers, with obsessive attention to
detail and customer-centric values at the core. We have created the IONIQ 6 as a mindful cocoon
that offers personalized place for all."
Delivering ample power and energy to spare
IONIQ 6 is available with a range of drive motors and battery packs to fit the needs of every
customer. The long-range 77.4-kWh battery can be mated with two electric motor layouts, either
rear-wheel-drive (RWD) or all-wheel-drive (AWD). The top-of-the-line dual motor setup is an
AWD option producing a combined power output of 239 kW and 605 Nm of torque. This PE
configuration can go from 0 km/h to 100 km/h in 5.1 seconds * .
IONIQ 6 boasts an impressive energy consumption rate. The energy consumption of the 53-kWh
standard battery with 18-inch tyre and RWD motor option * is estimated to be under 14 kWh/100

km, according to WLTP. This makes IONIQ 6 one of the most energy-efficient vehicles in the
market.
IONIQ 6’s E-GMP architecture can support both 400-V and 800-V charging infrastructures, with
800-V charging as standard; it can accommodate 400-V charging without the need for additional
components or adapters.
IONIQ 6, like IONIQ 5 before it, provides an innovative vehicle-to-load (V2L) function that allows
customers to charge any electric devices — ideal for powering necessities during a power
outage, camping or outdoor projects. V2L is enabled using an available accessory adaptor and
goes into the outside charging port. In addition to the outside power outlet, there is a second
outlet underneath the back row seat for charging laptops, phones and other devices.
Empowering technology and purposeful features
IONIQ 6’s modular touchscreen dashboard integrates a 12-inch full-touch infotainment display
and 12-inch digital cluster that houses advanced technologies for an enhanced digital user
experience that can be customized to meet their needs.
IONIQ 6’s infotainment system provides real-time travel radius mapping based on the current
state of charge. The system’s connected car services also help search and plan the best route to
include a charging station along the way.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto look great on this widescreen display. Bluetooth multi-
connection support is available, so two devices can be paired at the same time — one for phone
calls and one for music streaming. The premium Bose sound system’s eight speakers, including
a subwoofer, are strategically placed throughout the vehicle for a high-quality listening
experience. The navigation system comes with Bluelink® Infotainment/Map updates.
Advanced driver assistance systems ensure high levels of safety *
IONIQ 6 is equipped with the next level of Hyundai SmartSense, Advanced Driver Assistance
Systems, ensuring safety and convenience on the road 1 .
Highway Driving Assist 2 (HDA 2) helps to maintain a set distance and speed from the vehicle
ahead when driving on a highway and helps to center the vehicle in the lane while driving, even
though a curve. In case the vehicle on the side is driving very close, it assists to adjust the
vehicle's path, not to be in danger. If driving above a certain speed, holding the steering wheel,
and operating the turn signal switch automatically changes the lane in the indicated direction * .
Smart Cruise Control (SCC) helps to maintain distance from the vehicle ahead and drive at a
speed set by the driver by reflecting the learned driving style of the driver. When SCC is inactive,
the function learns the driver's driving style. When SCC is activated, the function stops learning
and drives automatically by mimicking the learned driving style * .
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) helps to avoid collisions with objects in front of the
vehicle while driving. If a preceding vehicle suddenly slows, or if a forward-collision risk is
detected, such as a stopped vehicle or a pedestrian, it provides a warning. After the warning, if
the risk of collision remains, it can assist with emergency braking. While driving, if there is a risk
of collision with a cyclist ahead, or with an oncoming vehicle while turning at an intersection, it
can help assist with emergency braking * .
Further options offer the enhanced functions of Junction Crossing, Lane-Changing Oncoming
and Lane-Changing Side along with Evasive Steering Assist. While driving through an
intersection if there is a risk of collision with oncoming vehicles from the left or right, it
automatically assists with emergency braking. When changing lanes while driving, if there is a

risk of collision with an oncoming vehicle in the next lane or a preceding vehicle in the next lane,
it automatically assists with avoidance steering. And while driving, if there is a risk of collision
with a pedestrian, partially in the vehicle's intended path, it automatically assists with avoidance
steering * .
Other semi-autonomous driving features include Intelligent Speed Limit Assist (ISLA), which
adjusts vehicle speed to match the speed limit, and High Beam Assist (HBA), which can help
switch high beam lights on and off at night for approaching vehicles in the opposite oncoming
lane * .
IONIQ 6 has several driver attention-related functions * . Driver Attention Warning (DAW) analyzes
the driver's attention while driving and warns when necessary. It provides a warning when signs
of driver inattentiveness are detected, and recommends a rest if needed. During a stop, the
driver is alerted if the leading vehicle departs * .
Several functions work in tandem to help avoid collisions in a variety of driving situations. Blind-
Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA) helps avoid collisions at the rear side of the vehicle when
changing lanes. When operating the turn signal to change lanes, if there is a risk of collision
detected with a rear-side vehicle, it can provide a warning. If exiting a parallel parking spot and
there is a risk of collision detected with a rear-side vehicle, it can assist with emergency braking * .
Another function, Blind-Spot View Monitor (BVM), displays video of the blind-spot view for a safe
lane change. When operating the turn signal switch, it displays video of the blind-spot view for
the direction indicated * .
IONIQ 6 also assures the safety of backseat passengers with Safe Exit Warning (SEW), which
provides a warning when a vehicle is approaching from the rear-side while getting out of the
vehicle. When the occupant opens the door to exit the vehicle after a stop, if an approaching
vehicle from the rear side is detected, it provides a warning * .
A variety of Parking Convenience features make parking in a variety of circumstances easier
than before. Remote Smart Parking Assist 2 (RSPA 2) helps remotely park by Remote Parking.
or it helps remotely exit a parking spot from outside the vehicle by Remote Operation. This
feature works for parallel, perpendicular, and even diagonal parking * .
Surround View Monitor (SVM) displays video of the situation around the vehicle for safe parking.
Forward/Side/Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist (PCA) helps avoid collisions with
pedestrians and objects around the vehicle while parking or exiting. If there is a risk of collision
with pedestrians or objects while parking and exiting, it provides a warning. After the warning, if
the risk of collision increases, it automatically assists with emergency braking * .
Similarly, Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) helps avoid collisions with
oncoming vehicles on the left or right side of the vehicle while reversing. If there is a risk of
collision with an oncoming vehicle on the left or right side while reversing, it provides a warning.
After the warning, if the risk of collision increases, it automatically assists with emergency
braking * .
OTA Software Update 1
IONIQ 6 is Hyundai brand’s first model to offer the Over-the-Air (OTA) Software Update feature
for various controllers. This technology allows drivers to upgrade the vehicle’s controllers for
electric devices, autonomous driving, battery, and more, to provide a safer and more convenient
driving experience. Drivers can also update maps and media software with the OTA function * .
