SRK has been the brand ambassador for Hyundai Motor India for a long time which is why we often see him with Hyundai cars
Bollywood Badshaah, Shahrukh Khan, was spotted in his new Hyundai Ioniq 5 for the first time ever. Note that the Ioniq 5 is the flagship electric vehicle from the Korean auto giant in our market. In fact, it has done exceedingly well across various international markets. SRK is one of the biggest movie stars in the world. He owns a slew of ostentatious automobiles. However, it is still relatively new for celebs to opt for electric cars. Still, the fact that he uses the Ioniq 5 highlights the shift in the automotive industry. Here are the details.
Shahrukh Khan Seen in his Hyundai Ioniq 5
The specifics of this case stem from Cars For You on YouTube. This channel features content around our beloved celebrities and their opulent automobiles. On this occasion, the video captures the legendary SRK in his brand-new EV. As per the information in the video, the EV is spotted coming out of Shahrukh Khan’s famous home called Mannat. To confirm its owner, the EV carries the 0555 numberplate, something we have seen on all cars of SRK. Apart from that, it was also reported that he was travelling in his Rolls Royce Cullinan in a convoy.
Hyundai Ioniq 5
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 uses the Korean carmaker’s E-GMP architecture which also underpins other Hyundai and Kia EVs. It comes with a 72.6 kWh battery pack in a single configuration. This results in a power and torque output of 217 hp and 350 Nm, respectively. To juice up the battery, a 350 kW DC fast charging system is supported which can recharge it from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes. However, most people will use the relatively easily available 150 kW DC fast charger. One key feature of this EV is its V2L (Vehicle-to-Load) functionality which can power or charge external electrical appliances. It has an ARAI-rated range of a healthy 631 km on a single charge. It retails for Rs 46.05 lakh, ex-showroom.
