Body PASSENGER CAREngine ElectricTransmission Automatic (AM6)

The 2019 Hyundai Ioniq Electric is a compact passenger car that runs on a single electric motor paired with an AM6 automatic transmission, delivering a smooth, zero‑emission driving experience; its modest battery range is typical for the series, yet it remains a practical choice for urban commuting. Despite the vehicle’s overall reliability, the model year recorded six owner complaints, predominantly centered on the electrical system and vehicle speed control, and it received a single recall, underscoring the importance of monitoring these components in this generation.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the spark plugs every 97,500 mi; coolant every 30,000 mi. The big-interval services (every 30,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

Owner complaints about the 2019 Hyundai Ioniq top in one area — the electrical system,vehicle speed control, 1 of 6 reports (17%), well ahead of the next concern. That matters, because the electrical system,vehicle speed control are also the target of recall 21V-944 on this vehicle — so the single most useful check before buying or servicing one is confirming it was actually performed. 1 of the reports describe a crash and 0 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the electrical system,vehicle speed control pattern above. These are tallies of what owners actually reported to the federal government, not an editorial score — and higher-selling models naturally rack up more reports.
