Used 2020 Hyundai Ioniq Electric Hatchback Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2020 Hyundai Ioniq Electric is an electric vehicle offered in a hatchback body style and two trims: SE and Limited.The Ioniq Electric uses a 100-kW electric motor (134 horsepower, 218 lb-ft of torque) with a 38.3-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Range on a full charge is an EPA-estimated 170 miles.

If you like the Ioniq Electric but need a car that uses gasoline, the mechanically similar Ioniq Plug-In Hybrid or Ioniq Hybrid (both reviewed separately) should suffice. Highlighted features of the 2020 Ioniq Electric include:

SE
The entry-level Ioniq Electric is generously equipped with:

  • Keyless entry and ignition
  • Height-adjustable, heated front seats
  • Automatic climate control
  • 8-inch touchscreen
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration

Standard advanced safety features include:

  • Forward collision warning (alerts you of a possible collision with the car in front)
  • Automatic emergency braking (if forward collision sensors trigger and no driver intervention is registered, the car can automatically apply the brakes)
  • Lane keeping assist (automatically steers the car back into its lane if the Ioniq Electric begins to drift over the lane marker)
  • Lane-centering assist (monitors lane markers to the left and right to keep the Ioniq centered in the lane)
  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Ioniq and the car in front)

Limited
Includes everything above, plus:

  • LED headlights
  • Sunroof
  • Ambient interior lighting
  • Power driver's seat with lumbar support and memory settings
  • Leather upholstery
  • Navigation system
  • Wireless device charger
  • 10.25-inch touchscreen
  • Eight-speaker audio system
  • Blind-spot monitor (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)

Which Ioniq Electric trim does Edmunds recommend?

Thanks to its expanded list of advanced safety features, we recommend the base SE trim. If you have the budget to upgrade to the Limited, we think it's worth spending a little more to get the Hyundai Kona Electric in its Limited trim. The Kona offers more room, range and power, making it a better value proposition in our eyes.
