Resemblance with the Hyundai Pony (Sold in Canada not in US)

Not a bad resemblance for sure

looks like a competitor to the Tesla cybertruck...
I must be in the minority that doesn't like the styling. I would much prefer something more mainstream looking, even if its an EV

Reminds me of this awful ad:


A wireframe head with a Hyundai Excel inside, caption reads “Update your files”, and Hyundai’s thrilling lineup showcased underneath.

Who would go to their car to sleep? Is this actually a positive feature that people are in need of?
Exterior looks very sharp. Could pass as a hot-hatch. But headlight design is lacking.
Ultra minimalistic interior is a bore and looks like a child's play toy. One of the worst environments I've seen in recent years.
Don't trust any Hyundai's reliability. See far too many burning on the side of the freeway.

That's literally the same official 0-60 time as the electric G80. Which is funny because the G80 is quoted as having some 70 more HP.

I guess the Ioniq and G80 having will have the same range numbers and battery size from the specs we've been shown, and probably use the same motors.

as discussed before, g80 is likely a lot heavier with fancier seats, interior, amenities. not the same cars at all.
