HYUNDAI has pulled a trio of compelling low-to-zero emissions vehicles seemingly out of nowhere with the all-new Ioniq range, and in doing so, in one stroke, becomes the first car-maker in history to offer a truly affordable mid-range electric vehicle in Australia.

That’s the Ioniq Electric, but there’s also an Ioniq Plug-in and Ioniq Hybrid in descending order of electrification for those who don’t want to leap headfirst into a fossil-fuel-free future.

And, so, for the accessibility, choice, packaging, driveability and ease that these important new vehicles bring, bold Hyundai must be applauded.

Mark our words: this ought to be the start of the EV revolution in Australia.
