Ionic 5 also differentiated its design. Ioniq 5’s headlamps, taillights, and wheels will be equipped with’parametric pixels’, a key design element of the IONIQ brand.

Parametric pixels are the differentiated design elements of IONIQ 5, designed by embodying pixels, the smallest unit of an image. It contains the meaning of passing through generations by fusion of analog and digital.

For the first time in Hyundai Motors, a clamshell hood that covers the entire upper part is applied to the front, and the parting line that meets faces and faces to be divided into lines is minimized to create a sophisticated yet high-tech impression.

The interior has a differentiated interior design by increasing the use of space with an optimized space design and adding the theme of’living space’. One of the features of the IONIC 5 is the flat floor (flat floor). With the application of E-GMP, indoor tunnels can be eliminated.

In addition, an electronic shift lever (SBW) was placed around the steering wheel to remove the gear bar, and a console that can move back and forth,’Universal Island’ and a slim cockpit (dashboard component module in the driver’s seat) were applied.

Eco-friendly materials and eco-friendly construction methods are also adopted. Some of the actual leather seats and door armrests are made of crushed and processed recycled transparent PET bottles. Bio-materials extracted from sugar cane were used for the doors, dashboard, ceiling and floor.

Ioniq 5 is expected to be released in Korea as early as April. Hyundai Motor Company will sequentially launch Ioniq 5 in the Korean and US markets, starting with Europe at the end of next month.
