Charging

Stay powered for your drive.

You’ve got charging questions. We’ve got answers.

With electrified vehicles you no longer have to rely on gas as the only source of power. In fact, electric and fuel cell models don’t use fossil fuel at all. Which is why two of the most important questions many shoppers ask is, “How do I keep my electrified vehicle charged?” and “How does it fit into my life?” We’re here to answer these questions and more.

What affects range

Stopping power. Literally.

When it comes to charging, regenerative braking can help extend the range of all our electrified vehicles. When you coast or brake, the brakes turn the wheels’ rotations into electricity, which is stored in the battery . IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6, KONA Electric, NEXO Fuel Cell, TUCSON Hybrid, and TUCSON Plug-in Hybrid have control paddles behind the steering wheel, which let you choose from different levels of regenerative braking.

MPGe

What’s MPGe, exactly?

Making the switch from a gas to an electrified vehicle is a big decision. One great reason to go electric is lower overall energy costs. To make it easier to compare electric with gas models, the EPA created MPGe which stands for “miles per gallon of gasoline-equivalent.”

As an example, here’s a comparison between the 2025 KONA Electric and our gas-powered KONA:

Range

2025 KONA Electric SE: 118 MPGe (EPA-est.)
2025 KONA SE (gas): Up to 31 MPG (combined)

Cost to travel 100 miles

2025 KONA Electric SE: $4.00 (at $0.14 per kWh)
2025 KONA SE (gas): $10.01 (at $3.10 per gallon)

You can also use MPGe to compare different types of electrified vehicles. For instance, 2025 IONIQ 5 SE Standard Range RWD has 114 Combined MPGe while 2025 TUCSON Plug-in Hybrid has 77 Combined MPGe.

Charging your Hyundai

Charger types
At home or on the go.
If you’re considering an EV or a plug-in hybrid, it’s important to understand the different types of chargers out there and how long each takes to power up your vehicle.
EV Level 1 Charger
Level 1
Level 2
Level 3
The easiest home charging option—you simply plug into a standard 120V AC outlet with a portable Level 1 charging device. However, Level 1 charging takes significantly longer than other charging options.

Level 1
The easiest home charging option—you simply plug into a standard 120V AC outlet with a portable Level 1 charging device. However, Level 1 charging takes significantly longer than other charging options.
Level 2
The faster way to charge at home. Level 2 charging requires specialized equipment that plugs into a 240V AC outlet, like Hyundai Home’s ChargePoint® Home Flex EV charger. Fully charging your vehicle can take as little as 7 hours depending on the model and various conditions.
Level 3
Found at public locations like charging stations and shopping centers—check charging capabilities in your area using our map link below. Using over 480 volts, DC fast chargers can take your vehicle from 10% to 80% in as little as 25-64 minutes, depending on model. Even better, a 350-kW, 800V DC ultra-fast charger can power up a 2025 IONIQ 6 from 10 to 80% in just 18 minutes. And you get about 68 miles of range after 5 minutes of charging.
Charging stations

It’s never been easier to find a charging station.

With an expansive network of DC fast-charging stations across the country, you can feel confident there’s always power ahead. And when you lease or purchase a 2024 IONIQ 5, 2024 or 2025 IONIQ 6 you get limited complimentary charging through Electrify America—on us.

Even more places to recharge your ride.

As more people drive electric, we need more charging options than ever. So Hyundai is joining seven other global automakers to build an unprecedented charging network. With BMW Group, General Motors, Toyota, Honda, Kia, Mercedes-Benz Group, and Stellantis NV —we’re installing at least 30,000 high-powered DC chargers across North America. Most importantly, our network will be open to anyone who drives electric.

EV Route Planner

Hyundai navigation systems can locate charging stations along specific routes and refresh as you go. You can also view information about each station. The EV Route Planner also tells you how many charging stops you’ll need to make, as well as expected no-charging zones. So, you’re confident and prepared on every trip.

Fuel cell charging

Electrified vehicles you fuel at the pump.

Since our NEXO Fuel Cell vehicle is powered by an electric motor that runs exclusively on hydrogen, refueling at a hydrogen station takes just 5 minutes and is similar to pumping gas.

Battery health

Smarter battery
care. Longer
battery life.

Rest assured, when it comes to your Hyundai EV’s lithium ion battery, you can always count on our 10-year/100,000-mile Limited Battery Warranty. For even more peace of mind, here’s how your battery stays healthy:

Protect your battery from heat

During very hot weather, shaded spots or staying plugged in when parked help your vehicle’s thermal management system run more efficiently.

Ideal charging range

A 100% charge is there when you need it, but the optimal range for better battery life is between 25% and 75%.

Standard chargers

While DC fast chargers are great for road trips and saving time, for everyday charging, standard chargers are much better for your battery’s long-term health.

Timed chargers

Going on vacation? A timed charger helps keep your battery at an ideal charge level between 25-75% while you’re away.

Going electric with Hyundai.

Charge ahead with complimentary charging.
Electrify America has built an amazing ultra-fast network of DC fast-charging stations across the country, so you can feel confident there’s always power ahead. And right now, new 2024 IONIQ 5 and 2024 and 2025 IONIQ 6 owners get two years of complimentary 30-minute charging sessions—on us.
Hyundai Home
Make your house as electrified as your electric vehicle. With Hyundai Home, you’ll have the power to take charge of your electricity with solar panels, energy storage systems and a 240-volt (Level 2) charger.⁠
2025 IONIQ 5 & IONIQ 5 N Charging Benefit
Purchase or lease a new 2025 IONIQ 5 or 2025 IONIQ 5 N from a participating Hyundai dealership, and you can choose between a ChargePoint® Home Flex Level 2 EV charger or a ChargePoint out-of-home charging credit of $400 for the 2025 IONIQ 5 or $450 for the 2025 IONIQ 5 N. Paid installation through Hyundai Home is required to receive the EV charger.
