2017 Hyundai Ioniq Preview

For the Hyundai fans who are in the market for an eco-friendly commuter car, the all-new 2017 Hyundai Ioniq is destined to catch their attention. A lightweight design and a low center of gravity make the new Ioniq especially fun to drive. Not only does this subcompact hatchback conserve fuel, but it also has a lot of flair. Furthermore, a number of premium technologies will be offered.

Efficient Powertrains

The hybrid model will appeal to the drivers who do a great deal of traveling. Featuring direct injection, the Ioniq’s hybrid engine develops a satisfying 139 horsepower. A dual-clutch automatic transmission helps the Ioniq to deliver lively acceleration. You can also opt for a plug-in hybrid version, which has an impressive all-electric driving range of 25 miles. Meanwhile, the Ioniq Electric uses no fuel at all. A 125-mile driving range allows you to make multiple trips to town without needing to recharge its battery pack.

Sharp Styling

Hyundai’s goal was to make the new Ioniq look remarkably stylish while maximizing its overall efficiency. Highlighted by a bold grille and an aerodynamic front fascia, the 2017 Hyundai Ioniq definitely has a commanding road presence. Sweptback headlights help the hatchback to look even more stunning. On the rear, sleek taillights further enhance the Ioniq’s sporty profile.

Relaxing, Modern Interior

Don’t underestimate the Hyundai Ioniq’s compact size. Unlike some of its key competitors, the Ioniq has backseat that can comfortably accommodate adults. This is good news for the drivers who have a family. Well-bolstered front seats make the Ioniq an especially relaxing daily-driver. A number of cool features will be offered, including a high-definition gauge cluster and smartphone integration.

Safety Innovations

Although the new Ioniq has yet to be officially crash tested by the federal government, you can expect it to offer an impressive level of passenger safety. Automatic braking technology ensures that you never lose focus while at the wheel. Some of the other cutting-edge safety technologies include blind-spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, and lane departure warning.
