Overview

• Reports indicate Hyundai will unveil the Ioniq 2 at the IAA Mobility show in Munich in September as a Bayon-sized electric hatch.
• It is designed to bridge the gap between the Inster and Kona Electric while competing against models like the Renault 4 and VW ID.2X in Europe’s affordable EV segment.
• Sources say the model could offer battery packs similar to the Kia EV3’s 58.3 kWh and 81.4 kWh options, delivering WLTP ranges up to 372 miles.
• Spy shots and leaked video previews reveal a camouflaged raised-hatch profile with slim LED headlights and a combined instrument-infotainment display.
• The Ioniq 2 is projected to reach showrooms in Q3 2026 after its Kia EV2 sibling arrives a few months earlier.
