The 2020 Ioniq Hybrid comes in four different models, the plug-ins in three. With plenty of standard features, good infotainment, and a generous warranty, we give it an 8 for features, and steer shoppers toward the less-expensive models.
The $23,930 Ioniq Hybrid Blue is an exceptional value, priced like a Corolla Hybrid. It comes with automatic emergency braking, keyless ignition, automatic climate control, 15-inch wheels, and an 8.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, dual climate control, and 15-inch alloy wheels.
The $25,880 Ioniq SE sports LED running lights, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, and a 7.0-inch instrument display, while the $29,130 SEL gains LED headlights, wireless smartphone charging, ambient lighting, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality, a power sunroof, leather upholstery, and 17-inch alloy wheels. The $31,930 Limited gets Harman Kardon audio.
Plug-ins come in three versions, with features that line up for the most part with hybrids. The $27,230 Ioniq Plug-In Hybrid SE has adaptive cruise control, while the $30,230 SEL gets LED headlights. The $33,680 Ioniq Limited has a 10.3-inch touchscreen, navigation, and Harman Kardon audio. The Ioniq Electric is equipped like the plug-in hybrid, and costs $34,020 for the SE or $39,590 for Limited trims, including destination but before any applicable federal or state tax breaks.
All Ioniqs come with Hyundai’s 5-year/60,000-mile limited vehicle warranty and 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
