The 2021 Hyundai Ioniq is exceptionally fuel-efficient, but it’s less impressive when it comes to power, acceleration, and ride quality.
No matter which powertrain you choose, the Ioniq won’t throw you back in your seat. Acceleration is decent from a stop, but this Hyundai is slow to reach 60 mph, and executing passing maneuvers on the highway will require some forethought. The transmission can be slow to downshift.
The Ioniq Blue gets EPA ratings of 58 mpg in the city and 60 mpg on the highway. Other Ioniq trims get 54 mpg in the city and 56 mpg on the highway. That’s phenomenal fuel economy for a hybrid.
The plug-in-hybrid Ioniq can be fully charged in less than nine hours using a standard 110- or 120-volt household power outlet. With a 240-volt outlet, the plug-in-hybrid model can reach a full charge in a little more than two hours.
All-electric models take about six hours to fully charge when using a 220- or 240-volt outlet. Using a DC fast-charger, the battery can reach an 80% charge in about an hour.
The Ioniq has neither the gentlest ride nor the nimblest handling in the class. Cracks and bumps in the road unsettle it, and while the steering is well-weighted, it requires frequent adjustments. Long stopping distances were also noticed in some tests.
