## Is the Hyundai Ioniq 6 worth considering?

One of the most efficient electric cars tested: ADAC measured 17.0 kWh/100 km on the facelifted 84 kWh rear-wheel-drive car, giving 532 km against 680 km WLTP, and charged it from 10–80% in Hyundai's claimed 18 minutes. Cold weather is the caveat, as NAF's winter test of the earlier car took 34 minutes to charge and covered 468 km against 614 km WLTP.
