The Hyundai Ioniq 1.6 GLS 6DCT Hybrid (2018) is a smart, fuel-sipping hatchback that proves efficiency and driving enjoyment can coexist. As a dedicated hybrid, it’s engineered to deliver exceptional mileage without sacrificing the responsive feel Filipino drivers expect from a modern car.
Under the hood, a 1.6-liter Inline-4 gasoline engine works in tandem with a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) to produce a combined system output of 105 PS at 5700 rpm and 147 Nm of torque from the engine, plus an additional 43.5 PS and 170 Nm from the electric motor. This power is channeled through a smooth 6-speed Dual-Clutch Transmission (6-DCT) to the front wheels, offering crisp, near-instant gear changes that make city driving and highway merging effortless.

Driver-Focused Cockpit: A tilt & telescopic steering column, power-adjustable seats, cruise control, and a multi-info display ensure comfort and control on every journey.
Distinctive LED Lighting: LED headlights, fog lights, and daytime running lights provide excellent visibility and a modern, upscale appearance.
