New Hyundai IONIQ 6 Owners Will Receive Two Years of Free Charging from Electrify America

Electrify America has announced its latest complimentary charging program, offering future Hyundai IONIQ 6 owners two years of free 30-minute DC fast-charging sessions on its network. With speeds up to 350 kW, the offer is tailor-made for the IONIQ 6's 800V e-GMP platform — one of the few EV architectures capable of taking full advantage of Electrify America's fastest chargers.

Electrify America Expands Its Hyundai Partnership

Electrify America operates the largest DC fast-charging network in North America, with over 800 stations and approximately 3,500 chargers across the US and Canada. The network is investing over $2 billion in infrastructure to expand its footprint and improve charger access. It has previously offered complimentary charging programs with Hyundai for the Kona Electric and IONIQ 5, and now extends that partnership to cover the IONIQ 6 at launch.

Under the new program, IONIQ 6 owners receive unlimited 30-minute charging sessions for two years from their date of purchase. Electrify America's VP of Technology Rob Barrosa called it a third collaboration with Hyundai aimed at delivering hyper-fast charging experiences and advancing the electric vehicle revolution.

Why the 800V Platform Makes This Special

IONIQ 6 owners will be among the few EV drivers who can truly leverage Electrify America's 350 kW charging capability. Hyundai Motor Group's 800V e-GMP platform enables the IONIQ 6 to charge from 10% to 80% in approximately 18 minutes — a best-in-class performance that makes long-distance EV travel genuinely practical.

Hyundai Motor North America's VP of product planning Olabisi Boyle emphasized that the 800V investment was driven directly by customer research showing that fast charging speed and high range (361 miles for the IONIQ 6) were the top priorities. The Electrify America partnership, she noted, provides customers with convenient and complimentary access to the fastest charging available — especially on long-distance trips.
