TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2017 Chevy Volt offers excellent fuel efficiency, and refined driving, improving on its predecessor in every way that counts.

The 2017 Hyundai Ioniq is a small hatchback that comes as a hybrid, a plug-in hybrid, or an all-electric model; it's an important new player in the world of high-efficiency cars.

TCC Likes

Electric range of 53 miles
Quiet, smooth power
Crisper shape, better looking

Hybrid, electric, plug-in lineup
Approachable design
Beats Prius in fuel economy

TCC Dislikes

Styling too much like Chevy Cruze
Fifth seat barely usable
Slow 3.6-kw charger

Styling bland to some
Rear-seat head room tight
Battery hurts Electric's cargo space
