Hyundai unveiled today the first images of the large IONIQ 9 SUV, and we’ve never seen anything like it!
The Hyundai IONIQ 9 is a fully electric three-row SUV that marks a new milestone in the Korean brand’s commitment to electrification.
While IONIQ certainly refers to Hyundai’s electric range, the “9” symbolizes the largest category of vehicles from the manufacturer. The profile confirms that we are indeed dealing with a road giant. The model aims to stand out with a spacious and comfortable interior thanks to the in-house E-GMP global electric modular platform.
According to Hyundai, the design is “Aerosthetic,” a unique blend of aerodynamic performance and aesthetic appeal. A beautiful promise, but we quickly learn that the model draws inspiration from the sleek exteriors and spacious comfortable interiors of boats. The last manufacturer to try this on us was SsangYong with the Rodius, and it wasn’t really a success… Unless we consider that remembering it 20 years after its launch is a success!
Classic or shocking, impossible to know…
The very slightly curved roofline combined with an elongated wheelbase inevitably reminds one of the silhouette of an estate car, which has the advantage of offering maximum space for all passengers, including those in the third row. The visuals of the headlights bring to mind the IONIQ 5, promising a unique lighting signature.
Starting October 30, Hyundai Motor will regularly publish teasers on its social media until the world premiere of the IONIQ 9 in November. So let’s wait to learn a bit more, but we are already eager to see more!
