Hyundai says its latest BEV is the marque’s most aerodynamic model and draws inspiration from its Prophecy concept.
Hyundai Motor Company has revealed key design features of its new Ioniq 6, which it describes as an “Electrified Streamliner” because of its aerodynamic sculpting and use of sustainable materials.
The second model from Ioniq, the marque’s dedicated battery electric vehicle brand, has been inspired by Hyundai’s Prophecy EV Concept.
The Ioniq 6 has a low drag coefficient of just 0.21, assisted by its low nose, active air flaps at the front, wheel gap reducers and optional slim digital side mirrors.
An elliptical wing-inspired spoiler with winglet, slight boat-tail structure, and separation traps on both sides of the rear bumper also assist in the model’s aerodynamic performance.
Dual-colour ambient lighting illuminates the interior and offers 64 different colours and six dual-colour themes, while the touchscreen dashboard integrates a 12-inch full-touch infotainment display and 12-inch digital cluster.
Sustainable materials used on the exterior include recycled pigment paint from end-of-life tyres to the cladding and bamboo charcoal pigment paint to the body.
The car’s interior is also trimmed in a range of sustainable materials, including bio paint derived from vegetable oils and recycled fishing net carpet.
Full specifications of the Ioniq 6 will be released in July when the car makes its world premiere.
