Hyundai reveals a rendering of its all-new IONIQ model which is set to debut early next year.
A new rendering of Hyundai Motor’s all-new IONIQ alternative-fuel compact vehicle has been released, ahead of its official launch in early 2016.
Hyundai Motor has confirmed that the IONIQ will offer a choice of three efficient and ultra-low-emission powertrains: full electric, plug-in gasoline / electric hybrid, or gasoline / electric hybrid.
Looking at the renderings it will have a sleek coupe-esque design, which is said to reduce wind resistance and assist the efficient management of airflow around the exterior.
At the front, the signature hexagonal grille can be seen which incorporates active ‘flaps’ that can direct airflow over the car. The grille is topped by a gloss-black element that extends outwards to meet new headlamps featuring integrated ‘C’-position lights.
Following a world premiere in Korea in January, the IONIQ is due to be shown during March 2016 at the Geneva Motor Show and the New York Auto Show.
