Inspired by the stream-liners of the 1930s, Hyundai’s four-door coupé has very low drag, making it more efficient than the boxier Ioniq 5, though it rides on the same E-GMP platform, said Car Magazine. It has clever 800-volt charging, which means a 10-80% top-up takes as little as 18 minutes with a super-fast 350kW charger. All models have a 77.4kWh battery and 20-inch alloys with a choice of rear- or all-wheel drive.

This is an elegant car, with a “compelling blend of control and performance”, said The Daily Telegraph. The interior is attractive and roomy, with decent headroom and generous leg room. Like the Ioniq 5, the dash has a clean design with twin 12in screens, which are for the most part straightforward to use. The brakes are well judged, steering is pretty good and acceleration is progressive and refined, so driving is “an absolute pleasure”. Price: from £47,040.
