Hyundai is heating up the summer with its Getaway Summer Sales Event, offering enticing deals on a selection of its vehicles, including electric models. The campaign is designed to attract bargain hunters with significant savings and attractive financing options.
Hyundai’s Strategic Move in the Electric Vehicle Market
Known for delivering more value than its competitors, Hyundai aims to achieve its sixth consecutive year of record sales in the United States by 2026. The company has poured billions into expanding production and enhancing its supply chain in Alabama and Georgia, allowing these savings to be transferred to customers.
With a diverse lineup featuring 18 models priced under $50,000 and 8 models below $30,000, Hyundai is making its vehicles more accessible. The summer sales event introduces 0% APR financing on select models, a retail cash bonus up to $10,000, and flexible leasing terms.
Significant discounts are available on Hyundai’s electric vehicles, notably the 2026 IONIQ 9 with up to $10,000 in Retail Bonus Cash, and the 2026 IONIQ 5 with up to $7,000 off.
Both the IONIQ 9 and IONIQ 5 are offered with 0% APR financing for up to 72 months, a further discount of $3,000 for the IONIQ 9, $1,000 for the IONIQ 5, and no payments for 90 days.
Leasing options for the 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 5 SE Standard Range RWD start at $269 per month for 24 months with $3,999 due at signing. However, the IONIQ 5 SE RWD may offer a better value at $279 per month, providing an EPA-estimated range of up to 318 miles compared to the Standard Range’s 245 miles.
The IONIQ 5, with its size comparable to the Tucson but offering a longer wheelbase than the three-row Palisade, provides ample interior space. For those needing more room, the three-row IONIQ 9 is an option, built alongside the IONIQ 5 at Hyundai’s Metaplant near Savannah, GA, boasting 163.4 cubic feet of passenger space, surpassing the Ford Explorer.
Leasing for the 2026 IONIQ 9 S RWD, with an EPA-estimated range of 335 miles, is available at $369 per month, which is more economical than the Palisade Hybrid and the Kia EV9.
Following the expiration of the federal EV tax credit in September, Hyundai reduced the IONIQ 5’s price by as much as $9,800 on certain trims. This move aligns with Hyundai’s affordability commitment and long-term strategy.
Hyundai’s electric models are drawing new customers, with the IONIQ 5 achieving a 69.8% conquest rate last year, and the IONIQ 9 reaching 64.3%. Through the first half of 2026, the IONIQ 5 has ranked among the top-selling electric vehicles in the U.S., excluding Tesla.
With competitive lease rates, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 remains a cost-effective alternative to rivals such as the Tesla Model Y, Chevy Equinox EV, and Toyota bZ. However, high demand has led to inventory shortages, as seen at Burlington Hyundai, where customers are placed on a waitlist.
The Getaway Summer Sales event continues through Labor Day on August 3, 2026. For more details on local offers and test drives, interested buyers are encouraged to explore further.
