Get Up Close with the Hyundai IONIQ 3

Say hello to the all-new Hyundai IONIQ 3, a compact electric car packed with clever technology, impressive practicality and plenty of features that make you want to get behind the wheel and explore.

With a projected driving range of up to 308 miles, rapid charging capability, Vehicle-to-Load technology and an interior designed around comfort and space, the IONIQ 3 brings some seriously exciting technology to everyday electric driving.

From unlocking your car using a compatible wearable to powering electrical equipment straight from the vehicle, there is a lot to discover.

So, let's get up close with some of the best features of the new Hyundai IONIQ 3.

Go further with up to 308 miles of range

Range matters when you're choosing an electric car and the IONIQ 3 is ready to go the distance.

The Long Range version features a 61 kWh battery with a projected WLTP range of up to 308 miles, giving you plenty of freedom for commuting, weekend trips and longer journeys.

A 42.2 kWh Standard Range battery is also available with a projected range of up to 213 miles, giving drivers the flexibility to choose the IONIQ 3 that best suits their lifestyle.

Whether it's the everyday commute or a spontaneous road trip, the IONIQ 3 is designed to help make electric driving feel effortless.

Spend less time charging and more time driving

Long range is even better when it's combined with quick charging.

The IONIQ 3 supports DC fast charging from 10% to 80% in approximately 29 minutes under optimal conditions.

That means a stop for a coffee could be all you need before you're ready to get back on the road.

The IONIQ 3 also offers AC charging capability of up to 22 kW depending on specification, adding even more flexibility to the way you charge.

Your IONIQ 3 can power more than your journey

This is where things get really interesting.

The IONIQ 3 features Vehicle-to-Load technology, better known as V2L.

V2L allows the energy stored inside the vehicle's battery to power compatible electrical equipment. With the onboard 230V socket or exterior charging port, the IONIQ 3 can provide up to 3.6 kW of power.

Think beyond simply charging your phone.

Heading camping? Power your equipment.

Working somewhere without easy access to a plug? Bring your own source of power.

Planning an outdoor adventure? Take electricity with you.

It's one of those features you might not realise you need until you see what it can do.

Your wearable could become your car key

Keys? You might not need them.

With Hyundai Digital Key 2, compatible devices can be used to access the IONIQ 3.

Your compatible smartphone can lock and unlock the doors and the system can even automatically unlock the vehicle as you approach. Digital Key 2 can also work with compatible wearable devices, bringing your car key onto technology you may already carry with you every day.

You can even share a Digital Key with family or friends.

It's a small feature that makes the IONIQ 3 feel seriously futuristic.

Get comfortable with heated and ventilated seats

Technology might grab the headlines but comfort can completely transform the experience of living with a car.

Depending on specification, the IONIQ 3 is available with heated and ventilated seating to help keep you comfortable whatever the weather decides to do.

Cold winter morning? Turn up the heat.

Warm summer afternoon? Switch on the seat ventilation.

Selected versions can also feature Relaxation Seats, adding another level of comfort when you're taking some time out inside the car.

Compact outside. Seriously spacious inside.

Don't let the IONIQ 3's compact dimensions fool you.

Hyundai has designed the cabin using its Furnished Space concept with a long wheelbase and flat floor helping create impressive passenger space.

There's genuine five-seat comfort with generous headroom and legroom plus plenty of clever storage throughout the cabin.

Then there's the boot.

The IONIQ 3 offers 441 litres of total luggage capacity, including an integrated 119-litre Megabox hidden beneath the boot floor.

Shopping bags, suitcases, sports equipment or everything you need for a weekend away. There's plenty of room for everyday life.

Meet Hyundai's new Pleos Connect technology

The IONIQ 3 isn't just getting a new infotainment system. It's introducing something completely new for Hyundai in Europe.

It's the first European Hyundai model to feature Pleos Connect, Hyundai's next-generation infotainment system based on Android Automotive OS.

Depending on specification, drivers can choose from a 12.9-inch or 14.6-inch display with sharp graphics, navigation, connectivity features and broad customisation options.

AI-enhanced voice recognition adds another layer of convenience while Apple CarPlay and Android Auto help keep your digital life connected when you're on the move.

Turn up the soundtrack

Every good drive deserves a soundtrack.

Depending on specification, the IONIQ 3 can be equipped with a BOSE Premium Sound System, designed to deliver immersive sound throughout the cabin.

Pair that with ambient LED lighting and the IONIQ 3 becomes a pretty impressive place to spend your time.

Designed to stand out

The technology isn't the only thing worth getting excited about.

IONIQ 3 introduces Hyundai's new Aero Hatch body style, combining a sleek silhouette with aerodynamic efficiency and impressive interior space.

Hyundai's Art of Steel design philosophy gives the car its distinctive surfaces while signature IONIQ pixel lighting adds an instantly recognisable finishing touch.

Look closely at the front and rear and you'll even spot four central dots representing the letter H in Morse code.

It's one of several small details waiting to be discovered around the IONIQ 3.

Clever technology working behind the scenes

The IONIQ 3 also brings Hyundai's latest SmartSense driver assistance technology into the mix.

Available technology includes Highway Driving Assist 2, Remote Smart Parking Assist and Blind-Spot View Monitor, helping make everyday driving and manoeuvring easier.

There's also Plug & Charge functionality and an integrated EV route planner designed to take some of the thinking out of electric journeys.
