Hyundai provides an official preview of the highly anticipated Ioniq 5 and unveiled the first design elements and technologies of the electric crossover,. After the digital debut in February, it will be possible to pre-reserve the 800-volt electric vehicle before it celebrates its market launch in Europe in summer 2021.

Hyundai presented the Electric Global Modular Platform, or E-GMP for short, at a digital event. The platform should form the basis for the Group’s future electric cars and is distinguished by its efficiency.

Hyundai announced it will offer ten electrified vehicles in the US by the end of 2022. The list includes four conventional hybrids, two plug-in hybrids, as well as three battery-electric cars and the fuel cell Nexo.

Hyundai is making Ioniq its own sub-brand for future battery electric vehicles based on the new Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) with 800-volt technology. The first model will be the Ioniq 5 based on the Hyundai 45 concept car next year, with two further Ioniq models already announced.
