Hyundai-IONIQ6-EV

Hyundai unveiled its IONIQ6 earlier this year, setting a new standard in EV aerodynamics and energy efficiency. The South Korean automaker’s second dedicated EV is garnering significant attention, selling out within 24 hours of its release.

Hyundai created its IONIQ series, combining “ION” and “unique” as a tribute to the company’s dedication to electric mobility. The commitment has paid off so far, with the Hyundai IONIQ5 snagging over 3% of the US EV share YTD, with only Tesla models, Ford’s Mustang Mach-E, and Chevy BOLT EV/EUV selling more.

The IONIQ6 will sit on Hyundai’s 800V Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), the same one used for its award-winning IONIQ5. However, the automaker has worked hard to ensure its second dedicated EV lives up to its standard, making improvements upon its already impressive IONIQ5.

According to Hyundai, its “electrified streamliner” will be one of the most efficient EVs to hit the market with WLTP-estimated energy consumption of less than 14 kWh/100 km.

Hyundai also kicked up the range with its IONIQ6, capable of 379 miles (610 km) WLTPO range on a single charge with a long-range 77.4 kWh battery.

As far as looks, the IONIQ6 reminds me of a cross between a Porsche and Audi TT with a sleek, aerodynamic design. It seems I’m not the only fan, as the IONIQ6 first edition EV has sold out in less than 24 hours.

Hyundai IONIQ6 EV sells out within 24 hours

According to a press release from Hyundai, pre-sales of the first edition IONIQ6 began in key markets (Germany, the UK, France, Norway, and the Netherlands), and within 24 hours, the EV was sold out.

Util Meachau commented on the accomplishment, stating:

This extraordinarily high interest in and demand for IONIQ 6 First Edition underscores Hyundai’s leadership in zero-emission mobility. With its aerodynamically sculpted silhouette, long driving range, and interior that elevates the electric mobility experience for customers, IONIQ 6 redefines what a car should be. We are certain that European customers will be immediately drawn to our Electrified Streamliner.

Hyundai’s exclusive 2,500 first-edition IONIQ6 models featured:

  • A matte black finish
  • 20-inch wheels
  • Dedicated first-edition ECONYL floor mats
  • Exclusive leather options (inspired by Hyundai’s Prophecy EV concept)
  • Black aluminum ‘H’ emblems on the front and rear boot door underline

Hyundai says customers that were not able to pre-order the IONIQ6 first edition will receive an offer from their dealer. Meanwhile, those lucky enough to get their hands on one will receive their EV models between March and April 2023.

The official launch of the Hyundai IONIQ6 will happen at the end of 2022 and into 2023.

Wallbox pushes new wave of EV chargers across the Mountain West

Wallbox is ramping up its partnership with distributor Codale Electric Supply to roll out more EV chargers across the Mountain West, a region that’s seeing a rapid escalation of electrification programs and regional highway corridor build-outs.

Codale has become one of Wallbox’s most active distributors over the past two years, helping contractors, developers, and fleet operators procure Wallbox gear while also providing technical support and logistics. Now the two companies are scaling both AC and DC fast charging across Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Nevada.

Under the new agreement, Codale will prioritize Wallbox Supernova DC fast chargers and Pulsar Family AC chargers. Codale is already coordinating upgrades of older charging systems and installing new ones across public, commercial, and multifamily sites. Early projects include collaborations with several charge point operators and large commercial portfolios, some of which are rolling out Supernova units in Q4.

The Mountain West has become a hotspot for charging expansion, and Wallbox and Codale say their partnership is designed to keep pace by streamlining installation and improving network reliability.

Ignasi Alastuey, Wallbox’s chief business officer, said, “This partnership combines Wallbox’s innovation with Codale’s on-the-ground capabilities to rapidly scale charging networks across the Mountain West and set a new benchmark for EV infrastructure growth.”

Black Friday savings keep growing with up to 80% off EcoFlow power stations, Samsung smart appliances, Autel EV charger/solar cams, more


Following suit from yesterday’s edition, today’s Green Deals are packed with better-than-ever full holiday savings, led by EcoFlow’s next phase of its Black Friday Sale event with up to 80% discounts on backup power solutions, complete with bonus savings, free gifts, and new low prices – all starting from $149 + the phase’s first 48-hour flash sale. There’s also Samsung’s Black Friday appliance sale that can save you hundreds to thousands on smart energy-conscious washer/dryers, refrigerators, ovens, dishwashers, and more – starting from $269, as well as a new low price on Autel’s 50A MaxiCharger AC Lite EV Charging Station at $398 (plus the latest solar-powered security cameras). There’s also Black Friday roundups of DJI equipment, EGO Power+ tools, smart ambient lighting devices, a collection of one-day-only Best Buy deals, like Greenworks’ STEALTH electric mini-bike, and more waiting for you below. And don’t forget about the hangover deals that are collected together at the bottom of the page, like yesterday’s increased Anker SOLIX Black Friday savings, Segway’s new Navimow robotic lawn mower lows + increased Ninebot EV savings, and more.

Head below for other New Green Deals we’ve found today and, of course, Electrek’s best EV buying and leasing deals. Also, check out the new Electrek Tesla Shop for the best deals on Tesla accessories.

EcoFlow launches next Black Friday Sale phase with up to 80% off expanded lineup – starts from $149

EcoFlow has officially switched to its next Black Friday Sale phase of deals with up to 80% discounts, plenty of FREE gifts, bonus savings, and more. Among the new lineup, we spotted EcoFlow’s DELTA Pro Portable Power Station bundled with 2x 220W solar panels and a FREE protective bag at $1,699 shipped, which is not only being exclusively offered direct from the brand, but is also dropping things lower than ever. One thing to note here is that, sadly, the extra savings code isn’t valid on this bundle. It would normally run you $5,199 for everything (including the $99 bag), with the bagless bundle at Amazon keeping lower at a starting rate of $3,999 and only dropping to $1,999 right now. This deal comes in $100 under its previous offer during the brand’s Halloween Sale, giving you a total $2,300 off the going rate ($3,500 off the MSRP) for the best new price that we have tracked anywhere. Be sure to head below to check out the newest phase of full Black Friday deals.

EcoFlow’s DELTA Pro power station is among the most beloved and highly rated backup power solutions from under the brand’s flag, and this solar bundle is quite the setup to grab now that it’s fallen so low in price. Covering away-from-home trips, as well as at-home emergencies, this station starts at a 3,600Wh LiFePO4 capacity that you can expand up to its 25kWh max with further investments. Your devices and appliances can receive up to 3,600W of regular power through the 14 output ports, with it even surging as high as 7,200W for those larger appliances that need more. You’ll be 440W closer to reaching its 1,600W max solar input, thanks to the bundled panels, with additional options for recharging from an AC outlet, as well as your car’s auxiliary port (or by using a compatible alternator charger).

***Note: EcoFlow is continuing the usage of the promo code 25EFBFAFF at checkout for an extra 5% savings off your cart’s total, with none of the prices below having it factored in. Keep in mind that a number of offers are ineligible to receive the extra savings, but be sure to try it at checkout to ensure you’re getting the best possible savings during EcoFlow’s Black Friday Sale!
