The concept of Ioniq 7. (Doc. Hyundai)

Hyundai plans to launch Ioniq 7 this year, which is an electric SUV designed to redefine flagship electric vehicle standards.

Citing Rushlane's website, Tuesday, January 23, Hyundai Ioniq 7 was recently caught on camera being tested by the road wrapped in camouflage, but there are many interesting things to see.

As is the case with the back of the car, where this one embanks LED back lights that are connected both from the right and left stretching to the top, creating a striking visual design. This design option adds futuristic and dynamic elements to the overall aesthetics of Ioniq 7.

Meanwhile at the front, the SUV carries vertical stacked lights and is decorated with pixel-shaped LEDs. These LED Pixels not only contribute to lighting but also form LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL) which provides a distinctive and high-tech display on Ioniq 7.

Although the interior details are not fully disclosed, its expectations lead to designs inspired by the Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 models. Where it will be equipped with a 12.3-inch double screen on the front dashboard, coupled with modern aesthetics and functionality, highly anticipated.

In addition, the Hyundai logo is likely to be replaced with a distinctive four-point emblem, consistent with the latest brand design language.

Speaking of specifications, it is estimated that we will share a powertrain with Kia EV9, including a dual motorcycle layout with a total system output of 380 bhp and a large battery capacity of up to 100 kWh. The claimed EV9 range is 350 miles (563 km), and with an Ioniq 7 aerodynamic design, it is expected to push for further electric vehicle range limits.

In terms of features, Ioniq 7 is expected to use a level three autonomous driving apparatus, use of recycled materials in its interior, third row seats, and Hyundai's latest operating system, as seen in Kona EV.

Given that Hyundai Indonesia has presented Ioniq 5 and 6, of course, its presence in Indonesia is also eagerly awaited in the country.
