Hyundai IONIQ Electric 2019 works best as a FWD electric liftback for city driving, short commutes and simple home charging. The range story is the difference between 170 mi official, about 154 mi in mixed use and about 114 mi in cold highway driving.
In daily use, home charging takes about 6 h 3 min from 0-100%; on trips, the 10-80% DC estimate is about 45 min (est.), so highway use needs more patience. The practical side is documented with 5 seats, 12.6-50 cu ft cargo and 8 years / 125,000 miles battery warranty. The main caveat is that road-trip charging is slower than newer long-range EVs. Range confidence is high and the tracked ownership specs are complete.

Estimates of actual range. The values given here are BEVDB estimates calculated from EPA data and usable battery capacity, based on the BEVDB model. The BEVDB real-range card uses four fixed reference scenarios: City (Mild), Highway (Mild), City (Cold), and Highway (Cold). Mild means +20°C (70°F) without intensive climate-control use; cold means -10°C (14°F) with cabin heating. City speed is 50 km/h (30 mph), and highway speed is 110 km/h (70 mph). These figures are not official test results. Actual range will vary depending on speed, temperature, road conditions, road profile, load, tires, and driving style.
Estimated charging times are based on usable battery capacity, charging power and vehicle charging limits. Peak DC power is usually reached only briefly; average 10–80% power is more useful for estimating real charging time. Actual charging speed can vary by charger output, battery temperature, state of charge, weather, software and battery condition.
BEVDB estimates use EPA-rated (or derived) consumption and usable battery capacity to model city/highway ranges; the combined value is a weighted mix of city/highway and mild/cold scenarios. See the methodology and data sources for inputs, official source boundaries, fallback rules, and versioning.
Reminder: Range and energy consumption figures are estimates. Actual results may vary depending on weather, driving style, terrain, and other conditions.
