Hyundai Ioniq 3

Hyundai Ioniq 3

The smallest Hyundai Ioniq model yet punches above its weight.

The Hyundai Ioniq 3 might just be in the perfect sweet spot for electric cars in Ireland. It’s not too big on the outside but somehow manages to squeeze in a roomy cabin and a useful 441-litre boot. Plus, there’s a long-range option with a 61kWh battery and a range of 497km. The ‘regular’ 42kWh battery gives you a still useful 344km of range. Inside, the cabin is stylish, with the first use of Hyundai’s ‘Pleos’ software.
