Judges recognised the range for its quality and breadth of choice, with several award-winning models.

Hyundai has been named EV Brand of the Year at the 2025 Electrifying.com Awards. The awards are held annually to recognise and celebrate the latest developments in a rapidly moving market.

As one of the leading automotive buying guides in the UK, Electrifying.com knows a thing or two about what makes a great EV. Read on to see what made Hyundai stand out.

Quality and choice

The Hyundai EV range offers something for everyone, from hatchbacks and saloons to SUVs. Based on this alone, judges deemed the brand worthy of winning the title.

Across the range, quality is also both impressive and consistent. From cutting-edge design to the latest connectivity and driving technology, each Hyundai EV lives to please.

Commenting on the award, Founder and CEO of Electrifying.com, Ginny Buckley, said:

“We believe Hyundai is the only brand that offers a range of high-quality electric cars that appeal to buyers across the entire market spectrum. There’s an EV for everyone in Hyundai’s line-up – from the great value-for-money INSTER to its forthcoming seven-seat SUV, along with cars that appeal to both family and business drivers alike.

Topping its range is the brilliantly fun IONIQ 5 N, which has refined the concept of performance car driving in the electric era. Hyundai’s leadership in electric cars shines through when you look at the breadth of its model line-up, and it’s a worthy winner of our EV Brand of the Year.”
