Verified for the 2025 U.S.-market IONIQ 6 regenerative-braking paddle system.
Know what kind of control to look for.
This original category diagram is an orientation aid, not a picture of your exact trim. Use the written labels and your vehicle manual to identify the real control.
Step by step.
- 01
Choose a safe stopping situation, release the accelerator and allow the IONIQ 6 to coast.
- 02
Pull and hold the left paddle for more than 0.5 seconds.
- 03
Keep the paddle held for maximum regeneration and cover the brake pedal throughout the stop.
- 04
Release above 1.8 mph to return to the previous regenerative level, or release after stopping to maintain the stationary state.
Important limits
- Maximum paddle regeneration may not stop the vehicle on slopes, slippery surfaces or under adverse tire, wheel or load conditions.
- The service brake remains the driver's primary means of ensuring a complete stop.
Quick checks.
- ✓If regeneration returns to its prior level, the paddle was released while the vehicle was above approximately 1.8 mph.
- ✓If the requested stopping force changes unexpectedly, use the brake pedal rather than repeatedly pulling the paddle.
