Hyundai Guide
Few manufacturers have transformed their image as successfully as Hyundai. Once known primarily for affordable, dependable transport, today's range spans everything from practical city cars to some of the most advanced electric vehicles on sale.
Flagship models such as the Ioniq 6, Ioniq 9 and boldly styled Santa Fe showcase just how far the brand has come, while everyday favourites like the Bayon, i20 and Tucson continue to deliver outstanding value. With stylish design, innovative technology and a growing confidence throughout its line-up, Hyundai has firmly established itself as one of the automotive industry's true success stories.
Current Models
Hyundai i20 (20-) | RRP From: £20,010 |
The i20 remains one of the most rounded superminis on sale, combining generous equipment, efficient petrol engines and impressive practicality. Its spacious interior and competitive pricing make it an excellent alternative to more established rivals, while Hyundai's strong reliability record adds further peace of mind.
Hyundai Inster (25-) | RRP From: £22,995 |
The Inster combines clever packaging, excellent visibility and a surprisingly spacious cabin within a remarkably compact footprint. As the electric supermini market has evolved, many slightly larger alternatives now offer more space, stronger performance and better value. Even so, the Inster remains one of the easiest and most practical EVs to drive and park in town.
Hyundai Ioniq 3 (26-) | RRP From: £18,495 |
The Ioniq 3 brings Hyundai's dedicated electric-car technology into a more affordable compact hatchback. The entry 42kWh model offers up to 213 miles of WLTP range, while the larger 61kWh battery stretches that to as much as 308 miles. A spacious five-seat cabin, 441-litre boot and aggressive grant-inclusive pricing make it one of Hyundai's most important new models.
Hyundai Bayon (21-) | RRP From: £24,065 |
The Bayon offers the raised driving position many buyers want without growing unnecessarily large. Efficient petrol engines, a practical cabin and competitive pricing make it an appealing small crossover, particularly for buyers prioritising value and ease of ownership.
Hyundai Kona (23-) | RRP From: £27,290 |
The latest Kona has grown into a genuinely spacious family crossover while retaining its distinctive styling. Petrol, hybrid and electric powertrains ensure there's a version for almost every buyer, making it one of the most versatile models in Hyundai's range.
Hyundai Ioniq 5 (21-) | RRP From: £40,695 |
The Ioniq 5 combines futuristic styling with outstanding practicality, ultra-fast charging and a spacious, lounge-like interior. It remains one of the most complete family EVs on sale, offering generous equipment, impressive refinement and technology that continues to set the benchmark several years after launch.
Hyundai Ioniq 6 (22-) | RRP From: £47,050 |
The streamlined Ioniq 6 prioritises efficiency, long-distance comfort and aerodynamic design. Outstanding range, rapid charging and a refined driving experience make it an excellent choice for high-mileage drivers looking for something a little different from the growing number of electric SUVs.
Hyundai Tucson (21-) | RRP From: £30,985 |
The Tucson remains one of the strongest all-round family SUVs, combining bold styling with generous passenger space and one of the widest powertrain ranges in its class. Competitive pricing, excellent equipment and everyday comfort continue to make it an easy recommendation.
Hyundai Santa Fe (24-) | RRP From: £49,090 |
The latest Santa Fe transforms Hyundai's flagship SUV with bold styling, a spacious seven-seat cabin and a noticeably more upmarket feel. Strong hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains, generous equipment and impressive practicality make it an excellent alternative to more expensive family SUVs, particularly for buyers prioritising comfort over outright sportiness.
Hyundai Ioniq 9 (26-) | RRP From: £64,995 |
The Ioniq 9 brings Hyundai into the premium electric SUV market with generous space, advanced technology and genuine seven-seat practicality. Long range, ultra-fast charging and a high-quality cabin make it a compelling flagship for families wanting comfort without sacrificing efficiency.
