Hyundai’s Prius-Fighting Ioniq EV/Hybrid Caught Undisguised!

 

 

 

 

 

 
-Hyundai’s Ioniq, the brand’s upcoming hybrid/EV entry, has been caught undisguised during a video shoot. The Ioniq is scheduled to make its official debut next month in Korea, but you get to see it now.

Hyundai just recently rolled out a teaser image of the Ioniq, at which time the Korean automaker announced that the new model would be a dedicated green model, sold as an EV (Hyundai’s first), as well as a plug-in hybrid and a conventional hybrid.

From the spy pictures, we can see that although the Ioniq has a clipped tail like a hatchback, the new Hyundai actually appears to be a notchback sedan. The characteristic Hyundai hexagon grille features horizontal bands and flows into the headlamps, which have C-shaped daytime running lamps. Vertical fog lamps, rendered in LEDs, punctuate the lower corners of the otherwise smooth front fascia.

We’ll learn much more about the Ioniq, which is being readied to take on the Toyota Prius as well as the Nissan Leaf and friends, once it’s officially unveiled next month.
