Flash Drive: 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 EV

Clean Fleet Report

The Tucson, Santa Fe, Elantra and Sonata come as hybrid and/or plug-in hybrids, the Nexo is powered by electricity via a hydrogen fuel cell, and the Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 are battery electric. Because of this we don’t address issues such as long-term reliability or total cost of ownership. Hyundai gets electricity.
