The 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 6 gets a significant price cut in its sophomore model year.
According to a pricing sheet released by Hyundai, the base SE Standard Range now starts at $38,615—$4,100 lower than the 2023 model—with the mandatory $1,115 destination charge, which is unchanged from the previous model year. This version has a single-motor rear-wheel drive powertrain and a 53-kwh battery pack that affords 240 miles of range.

The SE starts at $43,565 for 2024, representing a $3,050 price cut from 2023. It has the 77.4-kwh pack shared with all other Ioniq 6 trim levels, giving it the longest range at a 361 miles. That tops the Tesla Model 3 Long Range.
The base SE isn’t as efficient as the single-motor version with the larger pack, and it has less power, but to some buyers, keeping the battery small means a lower environmental impact and smaller carbon footprint. A study published earlier this year found that smaller batteries could reduce lithium demand—and the environmental damage caused by lithium mining—while maintaining current U.S. levels of car ownership.

SEL and Limited models start at $46,365 and $51,265, respectively. That’s $2,450 less than the 2023 models. A dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrain is a $3,500 option on the big-battery SE, as well as the SEL and Limited trim levels. That’s unchanged from the 2023 model year. Dual-motor models produce 320 hp, compared to 225 hp for large-battery single-motor models and 149 hp for the base SE with the smaller pack.
The Ioniq 6 likely remains the closest rival to the Tesla Model 3, and now it’s closer on price. Today’s Model 3 in the U.S. starts at $40,630, but it’s eligible for a $7,500 EV tax credit that the Hyundai doesn’t qualify for.
