2021 Hyundai Ioniq 5 spied testing in Sydney
The new electric vehicle from Hyundai sub-brand Ioniq has been spotted in Sydney.
The 2021 Hyundai Ioniq 5 has been caught in a Sydney car park.
Just days after official teaser images were released of the first all-electric to come from the Hyundai sub-brand, the Ioniq 5 was found recharging at a Zetland electric vehicle charging station.
It's understood the Ioniq is undergoing hot weather testing in Australia over the summer months.
Information leaked last month revealing the fully-electric model would be initially offered as a 'First Edition', featuring a 58kWh battery pack offering 450km of range on the WLTP test cycle.
The battery will power a pair of electric motors, sending 230kW to the ground and propelling the car to 100km/h to a standstill in 5.2 seconds.
A larger 73kWh battery pack will be offered at a later date, extending the driving range out to 550km.
Using a fast charger, the vehicle's batteries can be replenished to 80 per cent in 18 minutes.
Hyundai has also revealed the Ioniq 5 can get 100km of range in five minutes when using a fast charger.
In a series of teaser videos released by Hyundai, the Ioniq 5 shows off a standard household electrical outlet – effectively acting as a portable generator.
The 2021 Hyundai Ioniq 5 will be fully unveiled in February 2021.
