Get the three-in-one. It was the message, since Hyundai introduced the streamlined door Ioniq, which can be obtained as electric car, hybrid or opladningshybrid for the same price: 264.000 euros.

It makes opladningshybriden to the the cheapest and directly comparable with the Toyota Prius Plug-in. We test Ioniq, with the most expensive premiumudstyr, to 294.000 crowns still are significantly cheaper than the Prius Plug-in, where the price starts at 330.000 euros.

On pure eldrift we were with provident drive of around 50 kilometres on a charge. The electric motor also helps during acceleration and stretching the fuel.

While the Prius put itself forward as a high tech gadget with a small joystik of a gear selector and many screens, Ioniq plug-in hybrid a simple but functional décor. A great shifter controls the dobbeltkoblingsgearkassen, and the analog instrumenthus has digital instruments.

the Operation is easy and logical. Put the car in gear, press the EV, and you run on pure electricity until you accelerate sharply, or there is no more power left. The battery can boost electric motor, and you can choose between a normal and a sportsindstilling. The first gives fine with the effort, while the car in sportsmode moves so sharply, it gives a smile on the lips.

The somewhat soft suspension means, however, that Ioniq feel more at home on straight roads with soft swing forward for sporting behaviour. the

American sensation
Hyundai Ioniq is good støjdæmpet both by eldrift, and when the engine kicks in. Here, the Prius is plagued by a rip-roaring and annoying engine sound under acceleration, while the driving experience, however, is more moving in japaneren.

Ioniq has fine with space in front, while the sloping roofline takes some of the ceiling height in the back seat. The cargo area is with its 341 litres, not overwhelming. Here steals the battery pack some gallons of compared to the 443 litres in the ordinary Ioniq hybrid car.

In the back seat, there is room for three, which makes the car more usability than the Prius, which only has room for two.

With a price of 2.30 euros per kWh, you can charge the battery up to the approximately 50 mile drive for 16.88 u.s. dollars.

Many purchasing however also vehicle type to get a elbilsoplevelse and at the same time be able to run effortlessly on langfart. The theoretical fuel consumption of 90,0 km/l is almost only for fun. For autumn comes a new and more accurate WLTP-consumption. We landed at 20.5 km/l, which is okay.

Features a nicely even in the Trend-trimmed, among other things, offers an extensive safety package with emergency brake and adaptive cruise control, while Premium among other things, the partial digital instrumentation, eight inch berøringskærm with Apple CarPlay and partially full LED lights.

Hyundai Ioniq plug-in hybrid is a good place to start if you want to have a sense of how a opladningshybrid works. Udstyrsniveauet pull up, while you, despite the car’s size must reckon with the fact that the usability is limited by a tiny trunk, and the scant space in the back seat.

Here is the most sensible to buy the basic version to 264.000 crowns, where you have the whole of the 70,000 dollars up to the Prius. If you don’t let you lure of the Kia Niro PHEV, which is in the same price range, but has a little less range on pure electricity.
