Hyundai has revealed two sketches of its coming Hyundai Ioniq. Unfortunately, there isn’t something here that we haven’t seen already. Ignoring the fact that the Ioniq was recently fully uncovered by several spyshots, here are a few dramatised sketches of it anyway, from Hyundai.
In its latest release, the Korean car maker once again confirmed that a total of three powertrain options will be available for the Ioniq – full electric (EV), hybrid electric (HEV) and plug-in hybrid (PHEV). No mention was made of this, but several reports have suggested that a 1.6 litre four-pot petrol will feature in its hybrids.
As spied before, the Toyota Prius-fighter features a relatively conventional look for a modern and electrified vehicle. As visible in the sketches and from the spyshots we showed you earlier, the Ioniq features Hyundai’s signature hexagonal front grille, a slim headlight design and air inlets on either side of the bumper fitted with discrete LED daytime running lights.
While not fully visible here, we’ve seen that the rear of the vehicle features a split rear windscreen, horizontal tail lights and a number plate recess mounted low in the bumper, inside a gloss black surround.
We’ve also seen the inside of the vehicle in good detail. A hexagonal centre panel houses the air vents and infotainment display screen alongside a sporty three-spoke flat-bottomed steering wheel. The new instrument cluster features a battery charge readout, while other highlights of the interior include a high-gloss black gear lever and a sleek array of air conditioning controls on the centre console.
Hyundai has confirmed that its new Ioniq will be launched in Korea later this month, and that it is already available for pre-order in selected markets. Following its global debut, the Ioniq will also be previewed at the coming Geneva Motor Show and the New York Auto Show after that.

No identity even with foreign designer. Better hire bangla
Foreign designers once they join an Asian company like Hyundai or Kia, follow no rules. They just design according to their own whims and fancies, or the whims and fancies of their employers. It’s different when they join companies like Bentley or BMW where they take their legacy and design principles very very seriously.
