The 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 now starts at $36,065, a full $4,565 less than the 2024 Tesla Model 3.

Hyundai’s answer to the Model 3 is the Ioniq 6, a sleek, long-range, and ultra-efficient electric sedan boasting an 800V powertrain. The Ioniq 6 is the largest sub-$65,000 electric sedan on the market, measuring 191.1 inches and offering plenty of space for interior passengers. While the four-door hasn’t even been on sale in America for an entire year yet, it has made a name for itself with impressive efficiency and an EPA-rated range of up to 361 miles. And in 2024, it’s now the cheapest electric sedan on the market, thanks to incentives courtesy of Hyundai.

The Hyundai Ioniq 6 SE costs $43,565, though the Korean automaker now employs a hefty $7,500 discount across the lineup. With the incentive, the electric sedan is $36,065, including destination fees. The Model 3 Highland starts at $40,630, and the least expensive old-gen models still run over $36,730 in inventory. The recently discounted Polestar 2 even starts at $50,300, a full $14,235 over the Ioniq 6. To say the least, if you’re in the market for a new EV, Hyundai’s aerodynamic sedan is very much worth considering.

      Now I’m curious how easy it will be to retrofit existing vehicles with a NACS connector. Ideally the voltage should be compatible, and you’d just have to change the port. But I’m not completely sure.

        You can just get an adapter. I have a Tesla wall connector and it works fine with my non-Tesla and a $100 adapter.

        The problem is that you can’t use the Superchargers with an adapter. You can use the non-Supercharger ones… I forget what they’re called… but not the Supercharger because of how it handles the money aspect.
