AEX HYUNDAI has revealed an early facelift for the Ioniq 6 saloon, bringing with it a dramatic new design that should help the car find a wider customer base. Revealed at the 2025 Seoul Mobility show, the loniq 6 has been shown in two forms - the base car and the sporty N Line - with the latter previewing the loniq 6 N that will share several design elements.

The changes start with a totally new front end that replaces the previously rounded headlamps with a new set of slim daytime running lights in their own housing.

The main headlamps are hidden away in a gloss-black lower bumper, while the sharper bonnet makes the updated loniq 6 look a little sleeker and more aggressive.
