Hyundai is leading the charge in hybrid and electric vehicles (EVs) with a range of innovative and award-winning models. With range life at an all-time high and charging times shorter than ever, Hyundai EVs are designed to fit your driving needs. Whether you're looking for a hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or fully electric vehicle, Castlegar Hyundai can help you find the perfect match for your driving lifestyle.
Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) have an electric powertrain and motor that is powered by a large battery. These vehicles are 100 percent non-emitting. You “fuel” them by plugging into a wall outlet or any of the convenient EV charging stations to charge up the battery.
Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) use a battery and gas engine to optimize fuel efficiency and performance. They don't need to be plugged in because the regenerative braking system and the gas engine recharge the battery pack while you’re on the go.
Plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) have larger electric motors and battery capacity than HEVs, allowing them to be used for a greater range and distance. Once the electric range is depleted on a PHEV, the car will operate like a regular hybrid until it is plugged in again.
Hyundai's alternative engine lineup is perfect for BC drivers seeking powerful, efficient, eco-friendly vehicles.
Charging your Hyundai EV doesn’t need to be complicated.
Level 1 charger (1.4 kW) which is the standard household outlet, takes approximately 48 hours for a full charge.
Level 2 charger (7.2 kW) can provide a full charge in between 7 to 10 hours.
Level 3 charger (minimum 50 kW) can provide up to 80% charge in between 1 to 2 hours.
Models using the e-GMP platform (IONIQ 5 & 6) can charge from 10-80% in 18 minutes using a Level 3 charger with 350 kW. Charging times are estimates based on manufacturer testing charging output and vary by model depending on the current state of charge. Consult your Owner’s manual for more information on charging.
Did you know that purchasing an electric vehicle could make you eligible for various provincial government incentives? The CleanBC Go Electric rebate program offers rebates on eligible passenger vehicles up to $4,000 on an income-tested basis.
