- Hyundai is offering EV drivers a 10% discount on all IONNA charging sessions through September 30, and IONNA is automatically stacking an additional 10% off for a combined 20% discount.
- The discount is applied automatically when drivers use Hyundai in-app charging or Plug & Charge through the MyHyundai with Bluelink app, with no action required beyond plugging in.
- Eligible models include the Hyundai IONIQ 5 (2022+), IONIQ 5 N (2025+), IONIQ 9 (2026+), and Kona Electric (2025+), plus the Genesis GV60 (2026+) and Genesis Electrified GV70 (2026+).
- IONNA CEO Seth Cutler framed the partnership as delivering not just "seamless charging" but "meaningful benefits for EV drivers."
- Hyundai noted that as in-app charging continues rolling out to new models, more EVs will become eligible for IONNA discount programs going forward.
- The timing arrives with US gas prices averaging over $4.00 per gallon, giving EV owners an additional layer of fuel-cost savings on top of the inherent price gap.
Why it matters: For eligible Hyundai and Genesis owners — currently six model lines from 2022 onward — every IONNA charging session through September 30 automatically costs 20% less with no extra steps, cutting out-of-pocket fueling costs during a stretch when US gas averages above $4.00 a gallon. The deeper story is structural: Hyundai is signaling that as in-app charging expands to more models, this kind of automaker-network discount is likely to become a repeatable lever for attracting and retaining EV buyers.
