This is the smallest EV that Hyundai currently offer in the UK and it certainly makes a splash within the small hatchback segment. The exterior design is compact yet tall, whilst providing visual cues to a practical interior and a retro throwback with the Parametric Pixel LED tail lights.

The interior has lots of design elements which catch your eye from the screw head design on the door cards. My test car was finished in a soft brown and cream colour combination, it certainly adds a flare to the car.

The electronification of the car market is ongoing, Hyundai enter the large SUV EV segment with their Ioniq 9.  There are multiple trim levels on offer from a base rear wheel drive to a performance awd. Acceleration various from 9 seconds to 5.2 seconds, depending on the trim level. Hyundai claim 385 miles of range from the 110kWh battery.

A luxurious interior which can be optioned with captain chairs on the second row, if you don't want the standard seating arrangement. Akin to the Genesis GV70 that I drove, the interior is filled with a light colour interior with thoughtful design details that promote an airy cabin.

Currently the main rival is the KIA EV9, a sister product based on the same platform.
