Hyundai Ioniq
Model Overview
The Hyundai Ioniq is one of a trio of hatchbacks built on a platform designed to accommodate electrified powertrains. This is the most conventional of the three, a gas-electric hybrid that relies on both power sources for fuel-efficient transportation. Hyundai's design takes obvious inspiration from the Toyota Prius, but the South Koreans' first dedicated hybrid storms out of the gate as one of the most efficient cars in the marketplace.

this should be what all cars are like going forward, never having to worry about fluctuating gas price anymore. It's a great drive and great value with the rebates on EV offered in ontario now. It's a long wait but very much worth it.

Compliance Mfr
Certain Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV) vehicles may not comply with Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations. The compliance label may bear incorrect front and rear Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) values. If the vehicle were to be loaded in excess of either GAWR value, it could lead to premature tire failure and/or vehicle overloading, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Hyundai will send a corrected GAWR label to current owners with instructions for proper placement. If owners are not comfortable installing the label themselves, they can take the label to a Hyundai dealer for installation.
