The sleek and sustainable IONIQ 6 impresses judges once again with its futuristic design, high-tech interior and ultra-fast charging capability
Leatherhead, 9th May 2025 – Hyundai’s electric trailblazer, the IONIQ 6, has once again solidified its position at the top of the executive EV segment by being named Best EV Executive Car at the 2025 Great British Fleet Awards – for the second consecutive year.
Organised by Fleet World, the UK’s leading fleet-focused publication, the prestigious annual awards celebrate vehicles and innovations that raise the bar for safety, sustainability and cost-efficiency across Britain’s fleet sector. The IONIQ 6’s repeat win signals not only consistency but continued dominance in a competitive and fast-evolving segment.
“Daring to be different, Hyundai was prepared to take a chance with the IONIQ 6, and drivers gave a positive response,” said John Challen, Editor of Fleet World. “Ultra-fast charging and a high-tech interior are just two of the car’s many attributes, alongside striking looks that certainly make it stand out.”
This year’s accolade marks the third consecutive win for the IONIQ 6 at the Great British Fleet Awards, having also claimed Best EV Compact Executive Car in 2023. Since its launch, the model has amassed a string of high-profile industry honours, including the coveted 2023 World Car of the Year, World Electric Vehicle, and World Car Design of the Year titles – not to mention being named Best Family Car at the 2024 UK Car of the Year Awards.
With prices starting from £47,050, the IONIQ 6 continues to be a compelling proposition for fleet operators seeking an executive EV that blends eye-catching aesthetics with substance. Its sleek, streamliner silhouette not only turns heads but also contributes to impressive aerodynamic efficiency, helping maximise range – up to 338 miles on a single charge.
Built on Hyundai’s acclaimed E-GMP platform, all variants of the IONIQ 6 feature the brand’s 77.4 kWh long-range battery and an 800v charging architecture that supports ultra-fast 350kW charging – capable of adding up to 215 miles of range in just 15 minutes under optimal conditions.
Customers can choose between a rear-wheel-drive variant producing 228PS and 350Nm, or a dual-motor all-wheel-drive version delivering a punchier 325PS and 605Nm, offering something for both efficiency-focused fleet managers and performance-oriented drivers. The two available trims – Premium and Ultimate – come packed with advanced safety and connectivity features as standard, elevating the everyday driving experience for company car users.
“The continued recognition from Fleet World is testament to the IONIQ 6’s enduring appeal to fleet buyers and users who want to embrace electrification in style,” commented Tim White, Head of Fleet at Hyundai Motor UK. “It offers a winning blend of sharp design, impeccable quality, strong performance and real-world practicality, which is backed up by our five-year, unlimited mileage warranty and a fantastic retail network that delivers genuine peace of mind.”
As electrification accelerates across the UK fleet market, the Hyundai IONIQ 6 stands as a bold, stylish and highly capable ambassador for the future of executive mobility.
