The Hyundai Ioniq 6 facelift created a buzz after its official launch at the Seoul Motor Show 2025. The debut of the Ioniq 6 N Line, a sportier variant of the electric four-door sedan, has made it an even more compelling choice for electric sedan buyers. It's the first time the brand has introduced the N Line version of the Ioniq 6 sedan, featuring sportier bumpers with N Line badging, bespoke alloy wheels, and black-out body panels. Let's explore more details about the newly unveiled Hyundai Ioniq 6 facelift.
