2025 IONIQ 6 - Upgrades, Performance, Design & Technology!
The Hyundai IONIQ 6 has quickly become one of the most talked-about EVs in Canada, and for good reason. Sleek, efficient, and packed with smart tech, this all-electric sedan continues to win global recognition while bringing practical benefits to everyday drivers. Named World Car of the Year, World Electric Vehicle, and World Car Design of the Year at the 2023 World Car Awards, the IONIQ 6 has already established itself as a leader. More recently, it was honoured with the Erin Baker Award from Autotrader and named Best Family Car by the UK Car of the Year awards in 2024. For 2025, it keeps its winning edge with subtle refinements, impressive range, and features designed to handle Canada’s cold winters.
What’s New for the 2025 Model
This sedan carries forward its standout design and proven performance but fine-tunes technology and usability. Hyundai continues to focus on improving charging accessibility, interior refinement, and winter-ready features such as the Battery Temperature Management System and Heat Pump System, which are particularly valuable for drivers in colder months. With up to 550 km of all-electric range, the IONIQ 6 is one of the most capable EVs in its class, allowing Calgary drivers to travel confidently between cities without constant charging stops.
Exterior That Moves
Hyundai designed this model with aerodynamics in mind, and it shows. Its smooth silhouette is not only visually striking but also functional, helping reduce drag and extend driving range. Standard design elements include 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, LED tail lights, and power flush door handles. A rear spoiler, parametric pixel lighting, and available 20-inch alloys give the sedan a sporty yet futuristic edge. The result is a vehicle that turns heads downtown or on the highway, blending elegance with modern EV flair.
Comfort of A Lounge
Inside, the IONIQ 6 delivers a welcoming, tech-forward cabin. Standard heated front and rear seats make winter mornings more comfortable, while an available ventilated front seat option keeps drives cool in the summer. A wide sunroof brings in natural light, and features like LED interior lighting, heated steering wheel, and interactive pixel lights add a sense of sophistication. With spacious seating and practical rear fold-down capability, the IONIQ 6 is equally suited for commutes and weekend getaways to the mountains.
Technology That Works for You
Hyundai has made sure the IONIQ 6 is as connected as it is efficient. Drivers can expect Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ as standard, displayed through a large 12.3-inch infotainment system paired with a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster. For convenience, the sedan includes Bluelink® connected vehicle services, wireless charging, USB-C ports, and Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) capability, allowing you to power small devices directly from the car. With available digital key access and smart self-parking, technology in this IONIQ makes everyday driving feel more effortless.
Performance and Range That Impress
Performance in the sedan 6 is both thrilling and practical. With the standard long-range battery paired to a 168 kW electric motor, drivers enjoy smooth, confident acceleration. The available HTRAC™ All-Wheel Drive system adds a second motor, boosting performance to 74 kW + 165 kW for greater power and control, perfect for snowy roads.
Charging is fast and efficient. Using a 350 kW DC fast charger, it can recharge from 10% to 80% in as little as 18 minutes. The Battery Temperature Management System ensures reliable performance even when temperatures drop, while the Heat Pump System helps maintain range during Canada’s cold winters. These features make the IONIQ 6 an EV truly designed with Canadian drivers in mind.
Peace of Mind is Priority
Hyundai equips the electric sedan with its advanced SmartSense™ safety suite. This includes Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with pedestrian and cyclist detection, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, Highway Driving Assist, and Navigation-Based Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go. The sedan also features Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist, Safe Exit Warning, and a Rear Occupant Alert to help protect every passenger. Underneath it all, the SUPERSTRUCTURE™ frame, made of high-strength steel, provides exceptional rigidity and crash protection.
