Updated Hyundai IONIQ 6/IONIQ 6 N Line unveiled in Korea

Hyundai Motor has unveiled its updated IONIQ 6 and IONIQ 6 N Line today at the Seoul Mobility Show 2025 in Korea, showcasing the evolved design concept of ‘Pure Flow, Refined’ which enhances body lines line and detail to make the brand’s flagship model simpler and more progressive.

Launched 3 years ago, the 2025 IONIQ 6 has more refined curves and enhanced proportions for a sleek and beautifully balanced silhouette. With the new fully electric IONIQ 6, Hyundai Motor is emphasizing the identity of electrified streamliners, focusing on connecting the body flow more precisely and naturally based on the evolved concept.

The new car’s elevated bonnet and extended shape, combined with a shark-nose design, create a sleek profile that appears to slice through the air. The black garnish on the lower body extends to the doors, emphasizing the EV’s streamlined body.

Original version of the IONIQ 6 launched in 2022. An early entrant in the EV segment in Malaysia, it was priced at around RM220,000 but few have been sold.

The prominent spoiler on the 2024 version has been removed, and there is now an extended ducktail spoiler to maintain aerodynamic performance while achieving a smoother, more refined silhouette.

The front and rear design details have been refined for a modern and high-tech appearance, featuring separate slim DRLs and main lamps. Horizontal design elements create a wider stance, while the rear bumper design complements the front with modern chrome garnish.

Inside, the ‘Mindful Cocoon’ concept is maintained, with a greater focus on a more comfortable and intuitive user experience. There’s a redesigned steering wheel and enhanced door trim materials for a more premium feel. The centre console layout has also been refined for improved functionality, and the climate control display has been enlarged to enhance ease of use.

Unveiled alongside the new IONIQ 6, the IONIQ 6 N Line variant inherits the design DNA of the RN22e Rolling Lab first shown in 2022. To highlight the N Line model’s dynamic and aggressive design, the front and rear wing-shaped bumpers feature enhanced details and a more sculptural form. This wing-inspired bumper design, along with a side sill emphasized by a single line, gives the electrified streamliner a visually lower stance.

Additionally, the extensive use of black colour at the rear, drawn from the RN22e’s design, contributes to the sporty proportions. The two-dimensional Parametric Pixel lamp design further emphasizes a digital aesthetic.

“IONIQ 6 has evolved from a single Electrified Streamliner into a lineup, each model expressing its own character while staying true to one refined vision,” said Simon Loasby, Senior Vice-President and Head of Hyundai Design Centre. “Under the evolved design concept of ‘Pure Flow, Refined’, we’ve enhanced every line and detail to make IONIQ 6 simpler and more progressive.”
