Hyundai launches affordable Ioniq 3 electric car in UK, US release unlikely

Hyundai has launched its all-electric Ioniq 3 hatchback in the UK, with prices starting at approximately $25,000 after a government grant. The vehicle offers two battery options, providing up to 213 miles or 308 miles of range, and features Hyundai's new Pleos Connect Infotainment system based on Android Automotive OS. Despite its affordability and strong customer interest in the UK, Hyundai has stated there are no plans to release the Ioniq 3 in the US due to potential tariffs and the availability of similar models like the Ioniq 5.
