Ioniq 2 tests ahead of concept's show debut
Auto Express
|August 06, 2025
THE new Hyundai Ioniq 2 has begun testing, just weeks before the firm pulls the covers off a small electric concept at the Munich Motor Show in September.
-
It will point to the production car seen here, which is due in 2026.
Thought to be an alternative to cars such as the Renault 4 E-Tech and Ford Puma Gen-E - plus the forthcoming Kia EV2 - the Ioniq 2 will be a practical, supermini-sized EV with subtle SUV styling cues.
Prices and specifications won't be revealed for some time, but given its positioning, the Ioniq 2 will almost certainly start at less than £30,000. Long-range models, with a bigger battery, will be closer to £35,000.
