Hyundai has revealed pricing and details of its refreshed Hyundai IONIQ 6 coupe-saloon, which includes a major price cut on account of it being awarded the full Electric Car Grant of £3,750.
A sister model to the multi award-winning IONIQ 5, the electric ‘Streamliner’ as Hyundai refers to it, has received tweaks all round to herald the upcoming new year, but it’s the remarkably tempting new entry price that stands out as the most significant update.
Indeed, a decision to re-organise the line-up means two base trims – Premium and N-Line – come in under the UK Government’s £37,000 starting price cap to qualify for ECG consideration.
From here, Hyundai has demonstrated it meets the criteria for the sourcing of materials and construction of its batteries to receive the full £3,750 ECG discount, reducing the starting price to just £33,240*.
It makes the IONIQ 6 one of the most affordable electric cars on the market, a proposition made all the more tempting by the fact it is equipped with an 84kWh battery that can return up to 423-miles of range (WLTP).
Meanwhile, the N-Line trim – which gets sportier looks akin to the rapid IONIQ 6 N – comes in at £36,240. The upper end N Line Evo and 320bhp dual-motor models aren’t eligible for the grant.
It’s worth noting that with the changes to the trim level order and the application of the ECG, the IONIQ 6 is now a full £14,000 cheaper than it was when it first went on sale in 2022.

What’s New on the 2027 Hyundai IONIQ 6?
Certainly one of the more distinctive electric cars on the road – especially when viewed in person – the IONIQ 6 gets a mild but well-judged exterior refresh for 2027.
The unmistakably swooping roof and shoulder line remains unchanged to ensure unimpeded aerodynamic airflow, but a sharper nose and headlights, plus a re-working on the rear-end differentiate it from the first-generation treatment.
Inside, the IONIQ 6 makes good use of Hyundai’s familiar tech-dictated interior design, complemented by sturdy materials and some lavish touches, like red flourishes on the N Line trim.
There are also some clever gadgets, not least the camera that does away with the wing mirrors and instead relays a feed to a small screen to the right of the steering wheel.
It’s also more spacious than its curvy roofline would suggest, while rear legroom is class-leading.
