Hyundai IONIQ 3 Officially Unveiled, Called an ‘Aero Hatch’ Built on 400-Volt Architecture

Hyundai has just revealed the IONIQ 3, its latest electric hatchback that demonstrates that you don’t need a large clunker to travel long distances. This five-door style, known as a ‘aero hatch’, emphasizes efficiency, which is important in everyday life as well as weekend excursions.

Clean lines and a well-thought-out design tame its compact body, which measures approximately 4,160 millimeters, just lovely and short. The front and back lights do the “H” thing with four unique little dots that are actually an homage to Morse code, and its aerodynamics are pretty slick with a drag coefficient of 0.263, which really helps stretch every last drop from the battery. The N Line variant gets a bot more aggressive, with black highlights, darker wheels, and a small rear spoiler that adds presence without changing the overall design. The lowest models have 16-inch wheels, but higher trims receive 19-inch wheels instead, as well as some tough cladding that implies it might do mild off-road tasks without issue.

Step inside and you’ll see a lot of open space thanks to a flat floor that can accommodate five persons comfortably. There’s a suitcase-sized storage bin buried under the boot floor, as well as a 441-liter boot volume to play with. The inside has a modern vibe to it, although everything is quite plain. The heated and ventilated seats, as well as the panoramic roof, are nice features for longer excursions.

The dashboard is kept pretty simple, with only a few physical buttons for climate controls and other functions, so you don’t have to look down while driving. There’s a large free-standing touchscreen that measures 12.9 inches on the low end and 14.6 inches on the high end, and it runs on the Pleos system, which sounds like an alien language but is actually an Android-based system that handles the critical stuff. Wireless phone charging and a Bose audio system complete the gadget list.

Power-wise, it is a 400-volt platform with front-wheel drive at launch and two battery options. The smaller 42.2-kwh pack works with a 144-hp motor for about 214 miles on the WLTP cycle, while the larger 61-kwh unit gets around 308 miles of range. Regardless of which option you choose, the torque remains constant at 250 Nm, and there is the option of dual-motor all-wheel drive later down the line, which may only increase horsepower to 288. Fast charging isn’t awful, bringing you from 10 to 80 percent in 29-30 minutes, though the precise duration varies by pack. It also performs well on the interstate, reaching a top speed of 106 mph.

You’ll be able to buy one in Europe beginning in September, with prices starting at roughly $25,000. They’re built in Turkey. The IONIQ 3 is avoiding the US market, whether it be due to tariffs or other reasons…for now.
