What it is

The 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 6 RWD (18 inch Wheels) is a midsize car powered by electricity. It sends power to the rear wheels through an automatic transmission.

Its motor is a 168 kW PMSM. The defining number is its 342-mile driving range on a full charge.

The numbers

The Ioniq 6 uses 26 kWh per 100 miles and rates at 132 MPGe combined. Those figures describe energy use across combined driving, while the range gives a clearer idea of trip distance between charges.

Its 342-mile range can be compared with other electric cars in the electric range list. Efficiency figures are collected in the electric efficiency list.

What it costs to run

Estimated annual fuel cost is $600. That estimate is based on the car's electricity use and typical yearly driving assumptions behind the figure.

At a 240-volt connection, a full charge takes 7.5 hours. The actual time between charges depends on how far you drive and how much energy you add.

How it compares

The Ioniq 6 brings 132 MPGe and 342 miles of range to the midsize-car class. The facts here do not include figures for another model, so they do not show whether a particular rival uses less energy or travels farther.

Who it suits

This car suits a driver who wants a rear-wheel-drive electric midsize car and can plan charging around a 240-volt connection. Its 342-mile range supports longer trips between charges.

The $600 annual fuel estimate also fits a buyer focused on keeping yearly energy spending predictable.

Trade-offs

Charging at 240 volts takes 7.5 hours, so adding a large amount of range is a longer process than a quick stop. The car's 26 kWh per 100 miles shows the energy required for its driving.

Safety ratings are mixed by test area: five stars overall, five for side crash, four for frontal crash and five for rollover. NHTSA lists three recalls and 35 complaints.

Verdict

Choose the Ioniq 6 RWD (18 inch Wheels) if a long electric range matters more than rapid home charging. Its 342 miles and 132 MPGe make the running figures easy to understand, while the $600 yearly fuel estimate gives a clear budget point.

Make sure a 240-volt charging setup fits your routine. The 7.5-hour charge time and the listed recall and complaint counts are important parts of the ownership decision.
