Overview
Cars like the 2017 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid might not be able to give you the direct benefits one might expect from its hybrid powertrain. However, its usefulness must not be overlooked. The Ioniq Hybrid uses its 1.6L inline-4 engine and a 28.0-kWh battery to produce 139 horsepower and 109 lb-ft of torque. This gives the Ioniq Hybrid a 0-60 of 9.4 seconds. The hybrid engine here is to support the gasoline engine to boost performance and offer slightly better fuel economy than what a single gasoline engine would be capable of. That said, the 2017 Ioniq Hybrid achieves a combined fuel economy of 58 MPG. As part of the compact hatchback segment, the Ioniq Hybrid competes with the Toyota Prius, and the Ford C-Max Hybrid. If you're ready to spend a little more for added luxury, the Lexus CT 200h would also be an alternative. The Ioniq Hybrid offers 3 trims, starting off at an MSRP of $22,200.
