Why buy a used Hyundai Ioniq?

All versions of the Hyundai Ioniq come with a helpful dose of electrification to assist the engine under acceleration, with both self-charging and plug-in hybrids available. Alternatively, you can go all-in and pick the purely battery-powered version. All this choice comes wrapped in a familiar Hyundai package, with a long standard kit list, a reassuring five-year factory warranty and strong build quality.

Owning a used Hyundai Ioniq

There’s a decent amount of space in the Ioniq, with room for four adults to sit comfortably, or five for shorter journeys. The extended wheelbase significantly helps cargo room, which is easily enough for two large suitcases, and possibly more if you pack tactically. The Ioniq’s cabin is a pleasant place to spend time, with premium materials and solid build quality throughout. It can’t quite match the modern architecture found in Hyundai’s latest Ioniq 5, but you’ll find most of the up-to-date features you’d expect. All versions include an infotainment system and digital dials in front of the driver.

Other models you may be interested in

Consider cross-shopping the Ioniq against cars like the Toyota Prius, Hyundai i30 Fastback, Kia ProCeed or even premium models like the Audi A3 Saloon or BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe.

Your Hyundai Ioniq questions answered

There’s just one shape of the Hyundai Ioniq, with any differences being found in the engine bay. As such, all Ioniqs come as slightly elongated five-door hatchbacks, also known as ‘fastbacks’, with a little extra wheelbase devoted to bringing you a larger boot than some more conventional hatchbacks.

Be careful not to confuse the Ioniq model with Hyundai’s latest lineup of electric cars, which have taken the Ioniq name as something of a subbrand. The first of these models is called the Ioniq 5 – a chunky part-hatchback-part-SUV – with the second model, the Ioniq 6 coupe-saloon, due on sale in the next few years.

The Ioniq is just shy of 4.5 metres long. That means it’s longer than regular family hatches such as the Hyundai i30 (4.3 metres long), and a very similar length to its efficient fastback rival, the Toyota Prius. The cabin is similar in size to an i30, for example, with enough room for four adults to sit comfortably, or five to squeeze in for shorter journeys. Most of the extra length the Ioniq enjoys over hatchback rivals is used to give a larger boot, which also has a usefully wide opening.

Ioniq models are offered with three engine choices – a conventional ‘self-charging’ hybrid, a plug-in hybrid and a fully electric model – all with automatic gearboxes. All of these options work well so we’d suggest choosing the version that’ll most easily fit with your driving needs. For mainly suburban and city drivers, the full EV can slash your fuel costs or, if you need to do the odd longer journey, either of the hybrid options will make a great choice.

While their dual power sources might seem complicated, hybrids have proven to be more reliable than conventional petrol and diesel engines. In surveys, owners typically mention reliability as one of the areas of the car they're particularly happy with.

No, the Hyundai Ioniq isn't suitable for towing. Many hybrids can't tow at all or can only tow a small amount, although the Kia Niro hybrid has a 1,300kg towing capacity so can manage a small caravan.
