At the same time, it unveiled its electric concept car "Installoid" and introduced an eco-friendly lineup that leads to hydrogen-electric vehicles, electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, and high-performance N-electric vehicles to announce the completion of its sustainable future and unlimited possibilities for customers' lives.
"We will continue to innovate future mobility based on Hyundai Motor's DNA," Hyundai Motor CEO Jose Munoz said in a statement. "We will lead the era of electricity with high quality and customer-oriented product lineups."
Hyundai Motor has set up an exhibition space of 2,600 square meters (about 787 pyeong), the largest area among brands participating in the Seoul Mobility Show, and attracted the attention of audiences who visited the site by composing a variety of exhibition and experience contents that allow easy hydrogen and fun electric vehicles to experience under the two main themes of hydrogen vision and electric vehicles.
■ The substance of hydrogen vision, eco-friendly hydrogen electric vehicle model 'Dior New Nexo' is unveiled for the first time in the world
Hyundai Motor has solidified its brand as a leader in hydrogen energy vision beyond car manufacturers by unveiling the new hydrogen electric vehicle Dior New Nexo for the first time in the world at the Seoul Mobility Show.
The All New Nexo, which was unveiled on the same day, is an eco-friendly hydrogen electric vehicle model that proves the reality of hydrogen vision with a complete change model introduced in seven years since its launch in March 2018.
Based on the hydrogen electric vehicle concept car "Incium" introduced in October last year, Hyundai Motor embodied a new approach that reveals the physical properties of the material as it is by reflecting Hyundai's new design language "Art of Steel."
The All New Nexo has a strong image like a sport utility vehicle (SUV) and has a unique design of a hydrogen electric vehicle.
The front daytime running lamp (DRL) and the rear combi lamp are molecular formula (H2) for hydrogen, and "HTWO lamp," which embodies Hyundai Motor Group's hydrogen business brand "HTWO" symbol containing the axis of hydrogen and humanity, has been applied to complete a bold and sophisticated impression in harmony with the three-dimensional bumper.
The side contours created by bold straight lines harmonize with the cross-section of the arch structure surrounding the side and rear to highlight the identity of the hard and solid D-all New Nexo.
The interior is applied with a soft and rich padding pattern to deliver warmth and comfort like a living space, and a driver-centered panoramic curved display and a digital side mirror (DSM) integrated on the side of the crash pad are applied to increase practicality and openness.
It is then equipped with indoor and outdoor V2L and 100WC type charging ports to strengthen connectivity with various devices, and applied "Audio by Bang & Olufsen Premium Sound" for the first time as a Hyundai brand.
As a representative of eco-friendly models, D-all New Nexo actively used eco-friendly materials such as ▲ recycled plastic applied to exterior bumpers and cladding for the first time in Hyundai, and ▲ bio-process leather ▲ bio polyurethane leather ▲ bio paint ▲ bio plastic ▲ recycled PET fabric ▲ linen fabric.
In addition, based on the 80mm extended rear overhang compared to the existing model, it has secured 510ℓ (based on VDA) of luggage space that can store up to four golf bags, and has applied a fastening platform that can utilize luggage space to suit preference by attaching various accessories.
The All New Nexo has made remarkable progress in terms of power performance, beyond its unique design and excellent practicality.
Hyundai applied a two-stage motor system equipped with two inverters to the D-Ol New Nexo to increase efficiency by 90%, and based on this, it achieved a maximum motor output of 150 kW.
This is a 1.3% improvement in system efficiency and 25% improvement in motor output compared to the existing model, with one inverter operating for daily driving and two inverters operating for high-speed driving to achieve optimal motor output for driving situations.
Based on this wide performance improvement, the All New Nexo achieved an acceleration performance of 7.8 seconds from 0km/h to 100km/h, and is expected to be able to drive more than 700km with a short charging time of only about 5 minutes. ※ Based on 18-inch tires and based on Hyundai Motor Research Institute's measurements, the exact mileage per charge will be disclosed later.)
Hyundai Motor has implemented a hydrogen electric vehicle-specific information display function that can easily check information related to hydrogen energy such as ▲ hydrogen charging station real-time information ▲ hydrogen energy flow ▲ customized driving distance ▲ V2L usage information.
In addition, ▲ Wireless Software Update (OTA) ▲ Dual Smartphone Wireless Charging ▲ Hyundai Digital Key 2 ▲ Digital Center Mirror (DCM) ▲ Digital Side Mirror (DSM) ▲ Built-in Cam 2 Plus ▲ In-Vehicle Fingerprint Certification System ▲ Remote Smart Parking Assistance 2 (RSPA 2) ▲ All Seats High-Heating and Ventilation Features were reflected.
Hyundai Motor has expanded the hot stamping and ultra-high-tensile steel sheets compared to the previous ones to increase the body stiffness of the D-Ol New Nexo and protect passenger rooms, and has improved collision safety performance by applying multiple skeleton structures.
Also ▲ 9 airbags ▲ Forward Collision Prevention Assist 2 (FCA2, Vehicle/Pedestrian/Bicycle Rider/Crossroads/Front-facing/Crossroads/Side-facing Vehicles) ▲ Lane Departure Prevention Assistant (LKA) ▲ Lane Maintenance Assistant 2 (LFA2) ▲ Highway Driving Assistant 2 (HDA 2) ▲ Forward/Lateral/Rear Parking Distance Warning (PDW-F/S/R) ▲ Pedal Misoperation Safety Assistant (PMSA) ▲ Surround View Monitor (SVM) ▲ Front Rear-facing Monitor (RVM) ▲ Front-facing Monitor (RVM).
In addition, the driver's condition monitoring system (ICC) was applied to check the driver's condition and face direction with a built-in camera on the instrument panel to inform the driver of forward gaze or rest with a warning sound.
Hyundai Motor will launch a "pre-notification service" that guides vehicle information, sales schedule, exhibition and test drive-related information from today to the 14th (Mon), marking the world's first disclosure of the D-Ol New Nexo, and will also provide customers with a 100,000 won discount on down payment when signing a contract later along with related information.
The advance notification service can be applied through QR codes at the Seoul Mobility Show site, and more details can be found on Hyundai Motor's official website (www.hyundai.com ).
"We will move forward with customers to make a future where everyone moves freely in clean air," said Chung Yoo-seok, vice president of Hyundai Motor's domestic business division, while introducing the D-Ol New Nexo. "We ask for your interest and support in the journey of creating a sustainable future with Hyundai Motor in the future."
■ The New Ioniq 6 & The New Ioniq 6 N Line Design for the first time in the world
Hyundai also unveiled the designs of the New Ioniq 6 and the New Ioniq 6 N Line for the first time in the world.
The New Ioniq 6 is a partial change model of the Ioniq 6, which was released in September 2022, and has been newly created with a silhouette that maximizes the sleek image with more attractive curves and beautiful proportion while inheriting the concept of "Electrified Streamliner," a new design type of Hyundai Motor's electrification era.
Simon Rothby, executive director of Hyundai Motor's Hyundai Design Center, introduced the design of the New Ioniq 6 and said, "The Ioniq 6 started as an 'Electrified Streamliner' and has now expanded into a model lineup with different personalities. We refined the design details of the Ioniq 6 in a more refined and progressive direction under the evolved design concept of 'Pure Flow, Refined'."
Based on the evolved concept of "Pure flow (Refined), Ioniq 6 focused on more sophisticated and natural connections to body flow.
To this end, Hyundai Motor raised the starting point of the front-line hood of The New Ioniq 6, improved the existing hood with a shark-shaped long hood reminiscent of a shark's nose, creating the impression of running through the air, and eliminated existing protruding spoilers and extended Duck Tail spoilers to complete a sleek side outline while maintaining aerodynamic performance.
The headlamp has been reborn as a new and future-oriented image by dividing it into a sleek daytime running lamp (DRL) and a main lamp, and the black garnish stretched to the bottom of the door gives the body a slimmer feel.
The New Ioniq 6N Line, which was released together, inherited the design DNA of the Rolling Lab and RN22e, which were released in 2022, adding a sporty sense.
The bumper design with garnish reminiscent of wings transforms the impression of The New Ioniq 6 N Line into sporty and aggressive, and the side sills emphasized by a single line wrap around the lower body and visually lower the posture.
The built-in design of The New Ioniq 6 maintains the concept of "My own place of rest" and has been improved with a focus on a more comfortable and intuitive user experience.
The layout of the center console components has been refined to enhance user utilization and convenience, and in the case of door trim materials, the IMG (In-Mold Grain) method (2), which is used to produce high-end interior materials, has been introduced to increase the sense of luxury. [2: IMG method: It is a technology that attaches embossed skin to the surface of injection products injected through vacuum molding, and is mainly used to produce high-quality interior materials
Meanwhile, Hyundai Motor revealed the teaser of the 'Ionic 6N' through a surprise session of the Seoul Mobility Show, hinting at the birth of a true high-performance sedan electric vehicle, and unveiled the real product of the Insteroid, which was introduced on the 1st (Tuesday) of this month for the first time.
Insteroid is a concept car produced by Hyundai Motor's European Design Center and a project model that reflects a variety of fun elements in a unique game-inspired design based on a small SUeV that leads Hyundai Motor's conversion to electricity and an Inster (domestic name Casper Electric).
Hyundai Motor plans to show the development potential of the Instor through the Instoroid and convey Hyundai's sincerity to the public to lead the new electric mobility environment with creative and innovative challenges.
