Hyundai Motor Company has revealed the initial interior details for the Ioniq 9 – its first all-electric three-row SUV. Based on Hyundai’s advanced Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), the SUV features a spacious cabin with a flat floor across all three rows and an “aerosthetic” silhouette that gives way to an “interior tailored to relaxation”.
Other highlights of the Ioniq 9 interior are soft touch materials and elliptical design elements, such as the door trim and door handle. The SUV can seat seven occupants comfortably as its cabin delivers the versatility to accommodate different needs and situations, enabling each passenger to use the space flexibly.
Ioniq 9 signifies Hyundai Motor’s entry into the large electric vehicle sector, following the success of the Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6. Hyundai states that the new SUV is “set to revolutionize the EV experience” with its “spacious and comfortable interior”.
“Ioniq 9 offers the ultimate lounge-like environment,” said Simon Loasby, senior vice president and head of Hyundai Design Center. “Its nature-inspired, lounge-like interior reflects our progressive approach of how we envision the technology, customer-centric design and tranquility, coming together seamlessly in the future of mobility.”
More detailed information of the SUV will be revealed at Ioniq 9’s world debut in Los Angeles, California, later this month.
