General nameplate overview

Unscoped catalog background, not specifications for a particular year or trim. Review status is unknown except for the assertions cited below.

The Hyundai Ioniq is a compact five-door liftback sold in the United States for the 2017 through 2022 model years under the internal code AE. It was the first Hyundai designed from a clean sheet with no conventional gasoline-only version: every American Ioniq is a hybrid, a plug-in hybrid or a battery-electric car, all sharing one body, one 106.3-inch wheelbase and a front-wheel-drive layout. Hyundai aimed it squarely at the Toyota Prius, and it shares its platform and suspension hardware with the Kia Niro and the Elantra.

The Ioniq Hybrid and Ioniq Electric reached U.S. showrooms for 2017, and the Ioniq Plug-In Hybrid joined them for 2018. A mid-cycle facelift arrived for 2020 with new front and rear fascias, a bigger 8.0-inch touchscreen, a reshuffled Blue/SE/SEL/Limited trim ladder and — for the Electric — a larger 38.3 kWh battery that lifted range from 124 to 170 miles. The Electric was dropped from the U.S. lineup after 2021, and the whole Ioniq nameplate ended after 2022 as Hyundai handed the compact-hybrid job to the Elantra Hybrid and reused the Ioniq name for its dedicated EV sub-brand.
