The Hyundai Ioniq 6 has a streamlined shape that not only contributes to its stunning appearance but also ensures exceptional efficiency on the road. It is touted as one of the most aerodynamic production cars in the world with a very low drag coefficient of 0.21 Cd.

The EV features over 700 Parametric Pixels lights that can be found in the LED headlamps, rear combination lamps, front lower sensors, digital side mirrors, and air vent garnishes.

The headlights also feature Matrix beam LED technology. LED daytime running lights, and the Intelligent Front-lighting System. The latter automatically adapts to road situations, optimising the use of high beams while ensuring there's no glare to other drivers.

The Ioniq 6 has a distinctive low-profile tail with wrap-around LED lights, a transparent HMSL (High-Mounted Stop Lamp), and a wing-inspired rear spoiler.

Adding to the sleek yet functional aesthetics of the EV are the automatic flush door handles, which are seamlessly integrated into the design. The layout of these handles also elevates the aerodynamic efficiency of the electric sedan.
