Unlike the sliding Universal Island fitted to the IONIQ 5, the IONIQ 6 uses a fixed centre console.

The console houses the front electric-window switches, wireless smartphone charger, cup holders and storage areas.

Moving the window switches away from the doors also frees additional space within the door panels.

A 12.3-INCH fully digital instrument cluster provides speed, battery status, remaining range, regenerative braking information and driver-assistance graphics.

The Max variants additionally feature a Head-Up Display, projecting key information into the driver’s line of sight.

The Lite RWD uses cloth upholstery with manually adjustable front seats.

The Plus RWD, Max RWD and Max AWD upgrade to leather upholstery and electrically adjustable front seats with lumbar support.

Higher variants also receive Hyundai’s Premium Relaxation seats, which can recline into a more relaxed position while the vehicle is parked or charging.

A two-spoke multifunction steering wheel provides controls for audio, cruise control and Hyundai SmartSense functions.

Both tilt and telescopic adjustment are standard.

Steering-wheel paddles are used to control regenerative braking rather than conventional transmission gears.

Storage areas include a glove compartment, centre-console compartments, door pockets and open sections beneath the console.

The flat floor also improves usability throughout the cabin.

RWD variants provide a considerably larger front luggage compartment than the dual-motor AWD model.

The IONIQ 6 provides two front cup holders within the centre console.

Two additional cup holders are incorporated into the folding rear centre armrest.

Bottle holders are also integrated into the doors.

The cabin provides one USB-A multimedia port and four USB-C charging ports.

A wireless smartphone charging pad is also fitted.

The vehicle additionally supports 3.6 KW Vehicle-to-Load functionality, allowing compatible appliances to draw power from the traction battery.

The cabin combines soft-touch materials, leather or cloth upholstery and environmentally conscious trim elements.

64-colour ambient lighting extends across the dashboard and doors.

Hyundai also uses recycled PET materials, bio-based paint and other sustainable materials throughout selected interior surfaces.

Exterior mirrors are electrically adjustable and power-folding, with integrated LED turn indicators.

The Malaysian specification retains conventional mirrors rather than the Digital Side Mirrors offered in selected overseas markets.

Blind Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist monitors traffic approaching from either side on Plus and Max variants.

The IONIQ 6 uses 18-INCH ventilated disc brakes at both the front and rear.

Regenerative braking supplements the friction brakes and can be adjusted using steering-wheel paddles.

Hyundai’s i-Pedal system allows strong regenerative deceleration and near one-pedal driving in urban conditions.

Active safety equipment includes ABS, Electronic Stability Control, Traction Control, Hill Start Assist and Multi-Collision Brake.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring and regenerative braking are also standard.

Plus and Max variants add more comprehensive parking protection through a 360-degree Surround View Monitor and Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist.

The IONIQ 6 features seven airbags, including dual front airbags, front side airbags, curtain airbags and a front-centre airbag.

Seatbelt reminders are provided for all occupants, together with ISOFIX child-seat mounting points.

The high-voltage battery is structurally protected within the dedicated E-GMP platform.

Four selectable drive programmes are provided – Eco, Normal, Sport and Snow.

These alter accelerator response, drivetrain characteristics and energy management.

Multiple regenerative-braking settings are also available through the steering-wheel paddles, including i-Pedal.

A 12.3-INCH central touchscreen provides the main infotainment interface.

Functions include Bluetooth, navigation, voice recognition and wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The system is integrated alongside the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster within a single panoramic display panel.

All variants receive Hyundai SmartSense.

Core functions include Lane Keeping Assist, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go and Manual Speed Limit Assist.

The Plus and Max variants add Blind Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 2, Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist and a Surround View Monitor.

Remote Smart Parking Assist is also available on higher variants, allowing the vehicle to move into or out of suitable parking spaces automatically.

Being fully electric, the IONIQ 6 uses permanent magnet synchronous electric motors rather than a combustion engine.

The Lite RWD and Plus RWD use a single rear motor producing 111 KW (149 HP) and 350 NM.

The Max RWD uses a more powerful rear motor producing 168 KW (225 HP) and 350 NM.

The Max AWD combines a front and rear motor for a total of 239 KW (320 HP) and 605 NM.

All four variants use a single-speed automatic electric reduction transmission.

Electric torque is delivered directly without conventional multi-speed gear changes.

The Lite, Plus and Max RWD use rear-wheel drive.

The Max AWD adds an electric motor to the front axle to create a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system.

The AWD system can reduce front-motor operation during lighter driving to improve efficiency.

The Lite RWD and Plus RWD accelerate from 0-100 KM/H in 8.8 seconds.

The Max RWD reduces the figure to 7.4 seconds.

The significantly more powerful Max AWD completes the same sprint in 5.1 seconds.

Top speed is 185 KM/H across all four variants.

Standard equipment includes Smart Key with push-button start, remote start, automatic flush door handles, powered tailgate, automatic headlamps, rain-sensing wipers and wireless smartphone charging.

Plus and Max variants add powered front seats and additional parking assistance technology.

The Max AWD additionally receives a conventional tilt-and-slide sunroof, which is not fitted to the other variants.

The IONIQ 6 uses MacPherson strut front suspension and an independent multi-link rear arrangement.

The long 2,950 MM wheelbase contributes to stable highway behaviour and good ride comfort.

Variants with 18-inch wheels provide the most compliant ride, while the Max AWD’s 20-inch setup produces slightly firmer responses over broken road surfaces.

The electric drivetrain generates minimal mechanical noise or vibration.

Its exceptionally aerodynamic 0.21 CD body, extensive underbody covering and acoustic insulation help reduce wind noise at highway speeds.

The result is a particularly quiet and refined cabin, especially on the long-range RWD variants with their smaller 18-inch wheels.
