Reasons to drive an electrified vehicle
There are many reasons to go electric: the driving experience, sustainability, and reduced emissions – explore everything about going electric and find out what kind of electrified powertrain best suits your lifestyle.
-
-
Performance
Electric vehicles provide a remarkable level of performance and agility. The absence of a 6-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine does not equate to being slower. EVs deliver instant torque and rapid acceleration. Despite the added weight of the battery, EVs exhibit swift acceleration from a standstill and maintain a seamless as well as consistent speed.
-
Spacious
Electric vehicles don’t have a transmission like petrol or diesel cars. Not having a big centre tunnel or gear shifter inside the car lets us create a flat floor and more room for passengers.
-

-
Nice and quiet
Due to their low-noise electric motors, electric vehicles produce minimal sound at lower speeds in contrast to their internal combustion counterparts.
-
Agility
Electric vehicles are typically equipped with a single-speed reduction gear, so there’s no more shifting. As a result, the ride is smooth and the response is almost instantaneous.

-
Petrol/Diesel ban
The UK Government plans to ban all petrol and diesel vehicles in 2035. Getting an EV today has never been easier and will give you plenty of time to immerse yourself in the wonderful world of electric vehicle ownership.
-
Operating costs
There may be financial benefits in making the switch to electric. While the purchase of an electric vehicle can be more expensive, the operating costs are typically lower. Unlike a petrol or diesel car, electric vehicles have fewer moving parts. This helps reduce the maintenance cost and likelihood of faults.

Charging infrastructure
The network of electric charges in the UK and Europe is ever-growing. For example, Charge MyHyundai gives you access to over 42,000 charging stations in the UK (and over 600,000 across Europe).

Comprehensive Guide to Electric Cars: Charging and range explained
There are two types of electric vehicle charging: normal alternating current (AC) charging and fast direct current (DC) charging. Normal AC charging is typically less energy-intensive which makes it much slower. When you charge at home using a conventional plug or home EV charger, or even at some public stations, you will be using AC. Fast DC charging can be completed in under an hour and is typically only found at public charging stations.

Find out more about our recommended home EV charger provider Ohme
The best way to minimise your electric car charge cost is to charge at home.
Hyundai recommend Ohme as our preferred home EV charger supplier.
Ohme's unique tech integrates with all energy tariffs, including Intelligent Octopus and OVO Charge Anytime, so that you can charge at the cheapest and greenest times available. Running a Hyundai IONIQ 6 Single Motor RWD with its 77.4kWh battery (WLTP range: 338mls) and an Ohme smart charger on Intelligent Octopus Go*, for example, could cost £116.80 for a year for an average UK driver doing 6,800 miles. By comparison, charging on the Standard Variable Tariff would cost £451.62 for the same distance and an equivalent petrol car would be more than £1,200.
Your local Hyundai Retailer can help you order 7.4 kW Ohme Home Pro or 7.4 kW Ohme ePod at a price, reserved to Hyundai customers.
You may be also eligible for the EV chargepoint grant (1) to help you with your electric car charger installation cost if you own or rent a flat (you can get either £350 or 75% off the cost to buy and install a socket, whichever amount is lower.) Ohme team will help with this process too.

5-Year Unlimited Mileage Warranty
Like every Hyundai, the IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 6 are built to the highest possible quality standards. And we back that quality up with a 5-Year Unlimited Mileage Warranty so you can enjoy the things you love in life, without having to worry about your car. On top of that, the high-performance lithium-ion polymer battery is warranty protected for 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. Enjoy the extra peace of mind that one of the industry’s best warranties gives you – standard.
*Maximum range according to WLTP combined cycle. Specification dependent. Actual range will vary depending on factors including road conditions, outdoor temperature, driving style, use of climate control and battery condition.
**350kW ultra-fast charger required for quickest charge times - chargers are currently available on selected arterial routes – see Charge myHyundai map for details. Not currently available in Northern Ireland.
Hyundai test data for comparison purposes. Actual time will vary and is dependent on several factors including battery temperature, condition and age, ambient temperature and the power provided by the charger. Charge time increases in cold weather and if battery temperature activates safeguarding technology.
In optimal conditions, the latest IONIQ 5 is capable of accepting power at up to 240kW and IONIQ 6 at 239kW.
