Powertrain & Range: Efficiency Meets Agility

Two intelligent battery options give you the flexibility to choose the right electric range for your lifestyle.

Design: The Art of Everyday Motion

A compact electric vehicle should never have to compromise on presence, and the IONIQ 3 translates the bold vision of the IAA Mobility 2025 Concept THREE into a stunning production reality. Rooted in Hyundai’s innovative "Art of Steel" design philosophy, the exterior introduces a brand-new "Aero Hatch" silhouette—a sleek, low-slung shape that achieves a remarkable 0.263 Cd drag coefficient while turning heads with signature Parametric Pixel lighting that subtly integrates four central dots to represent the letter "H" in Morse code. Step inside, and that striking exterior gives way to a calming "Furnished Space" interior built on the flat-floor E-GMP architecture. Designed to feel as warm and intuitive as a modern living room, the cabin prioritizes purposeful simplicity with sustainable, bio-based materials inspired by 1970s furniture, high-mounted digital displays for a clear natural sightline, and the deliberate retention of tactile physical controls, ensuring the space is clean, considered, and genuinely built to spend time in.

Technology & Features: Innovation Built Around You

The Hyundai IONIQ 3 is packed with next-generation technology designed to make every journey safer, simpler, and more connected. Rather than overwhelming you with complicated menus, the interior focuses on intuitive controls and seamless smartphone integration.

  • Next-Generation Pleos Connect Infotainment: Making its European debut, the cutting-edge Pleos Connect system (powered by Android Automotive OS) is the brain of the IONIQ 3. Displayed on a stunning, high-definition screen (up to 14.6 inches), it offers incredibly fast navigation, live traffic updates, and an open app market.
  • The Perfect Balance of Touch and Tactile: While the central touchscreen handles complex apps, we know drivers still love the feel of physical controls. The IONIQ 3 features a dedicated row of physical buttons and knobs just below the screen for instant, eyes-free control over your climate and audio volume.
  • Intelligent Gleo AI Assistant: Say goodbye to clunky voice commands. The built-in Gleo AI understands natural language. Simply say, "find a restaurant near me," or ask it to adjust the cabin temperature, and the system handles the rest.
  • Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) Capability: Transform your car into a mobile power bank. With Hyundai’s signature V2L technology, you can use the IONIQ 3’s high-voltage battery to power or charge external devices—from laptops and camping equipment to e-bikes—directly from a standard plug socket.
  • Hyundai Digital Key 2: Leave the physical key at home. This smart technology allows you to unlock, start, and drive your IONIQ 3 using just your compatible smartphone or smartwatch. You can even securely share digital keys with family members via a simple text message.
  • "Furnished Space" Comfort & Ambient Lighting: The cabin is designed to feel like a modern living room. Customisable ambient LED lighting adapts to your mood, while available features like the BOSE® Premium Sound System, relaxation seats, and sustainable, bio-based materials elevate the interior atmosphere to a premium level.
