Hyundai’s electric hatch goes on sale with up to 308 miles of range, starting at about $25,000

The IONIQ 3 has received more interest than any Hyundai vehicle in the UK ever. Starting at about $25,000, Hyundai’s electric hatch undercuts much of the competition.

Hyundai opened orders for the highly anticipated IONIQ 3 in the UK and Europe, its first compact electric vehicle under the IONIQ branding.

The response so far has been “extraordinary,” Ashley Andrew, president of Hyundai Motor UK, said after launching the new IONIQ 3 on Monday.

According to Andrew, the electric hatch has received “more customers registering their interest before launch than any new Hyundai we’ve introduced in the UK.” With the full £3,750 Electric Car Grant available on every trim, the IONIQ 3 is one of the most affordable, long-range EVs on the market.

The IONIQ 3 is now available to order in the UK, starting at just £18,495 OTR, or roughly $25,000, including the grant.

It’s available with two battery packs: 42 kWh and 61 kWh. The base IONIQ 3 Advance trim with the 42 kWh battery starts at £18,495 OTR and offers up to 213 miles of WLTP range.

The extended-range IONIQ 3 Advance with the 61 kWh battery starts at £21,995 ($29,000) and offers a “class-leading” WLTP range of up to 308 miles. That also includes the UK government ECG grant.

Hyundai is offering leases from £355 a month for the IONIQ 3 Advance with the 61 kWh battery. The offer is with a £355 deposit and 8.9% APR, including the £3,750 Electric Car Grant

At that, Hyundai’s electric hatch is cheaper than much of the competition, including the Renault 5 E-Tech, priced from £21,495 in the UK, including the ECG.
