2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 electric car review: Has Tesla Model 3 EV been bested by slippery new sedan?

Think about electric cars and the chances are the Tesla Model 3 immediately comes to mind. It’s the poster child of the EV revolution, after all. But the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 is now here to stakes its claim at segment leadership.

But when there are so many Model 3s on Australian roads, you really have to find a way to stand out from the crowd – and that’s exactly what the Ioniq 6 sedan is attempting to do with its divisive exterior design.

Dubbed by the South Korean brand as the Electrified Streamliner, the Ioniq 6 joins the retro-chic Ioniq 5 SUV as the second model on its emerging dedicated E-GMP platform, but will it truly shake-up the market?

In this expert review, CarsGuide Deputy Editor James Cleary takes the new Ioniq 6 for a spin to see whether or not it’s a classic case of style over substance. But with its maximum WLTP-rated driving range of 614km among the longest on offer today, it seems it has more than a few tricks up its proverbial sleeve.
