SEOUL, December 9, 2020
ย โ€” Hyundai Motor Company today revealed a teaser video (https://www.youtube.com/HyundaiWorldwide) for the upcoming IONIQ 5, the first dedicated EV in the new IONIQ lineup brand launching in early 2021.

Based on Hyundaiโ€™s โ€˜45โ€™ EV concept, IONIQ 5 will be the first car mated with the recently revealed Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), a dedicated battery electric vehicle (BEV) architecture.

The 30-second video, titled โ€˜The New Horizon of EV,โ€™ takes inspiration from the all-new IONIQ 5โ€™s yet-to-be-revealed design details, showing pixels and dots converging in a white space representative of a new era of EV.

The teaser aims to build anticipation and spark curiosity about IONIQ 5 by emphasizing three โ€˜extrasโ€™ to be offered by the all-new model. โ€˜Extra Power for Lifeโ€™ calls attention to IONIQ 5โ€™s vehicle-to-load (V2L) bi-directional charging capability. โ€˜Extra Time for Youโ€™ highlights its fast-charging capability. โ€˜Extraordinary Experiencesโ€™ hints at the BEVโ€™s soon-to-be-announced array of features.

The videoโ€™s release follows Hyundaiโ€™s announcement, made in August 2020, that it will launch a dedicated BEV lineup brand IONIQ in its bid to become one of the worldโ€™s top EV manufacturers. Under IONIQ, Hyundai will launch a range of EVs, including IONIQ 5, a midsize CUV in early 2021; IONIQ 6, a sedan; followed by IONIQ 7, a large SUV.

To facilitate its EV plans, Hyundai Motor Group recently unveiled E-GMP, the architecture that will underpin all of its new dedicated BEVs. The platform offers increased development flexibility, powerful driving performance, increased driving range, strengthened safety features, and more interior space for occupants and luggage.
