Hyundai to unveil 2nd dedicated EV model IONIQ 6 next month

SEOUL, June 29 (Yonhap) -- Hyundai Motor Co. said Wednesday it will unveil its second dedicated EV model IONIQ 6 at the Busan International Motor Show next month ahead of its local launch later this year

The IONIQ 6 is the second model embedded with Hyundai Motor Group's own EV-only electric-global modular platform (E-GMP) following the IONIQ 5 launched in April last year.

Hyundai plans to introduce the platform-based IONIQ 7 SUV model in 2024. For its all-electric models, Hyundai uses alphanumeric names like its bigger rivals, such as BMW, whose models are named Series No. 1-8.
