Hyundai has restructured its Ioniq 6 sedan range, starting at $65,500, with a lower entry price aimed at the Tesla Model 3 and government incentives. The new Ioniq 6 base model with a 53kWh battery starts at $65,500, making it $100 more than a Model Y and $3600 dearer than the base Model 3 sedan. Pricing is up by $2500-$3500 for existing trims.

The new variant is powered by a 111kW rear-mounted motor and carries a 429km WLTP driving range rating. The Ioniq 6 standard range figures are still 57kW and 285km less than the extended range 77.4kWh cars. Hyundai has implemented a heat pump and improved battery conditioning for the minor model year update, as well as offering more choice, including AWD for the Dynamiq and rear-wheel drive on the flagship Epiq trim. The Techniq grade is gone entirely.
