Concept 45.

45 – electric concept car.

Unveiled to an overfill crowd at the 2019 Frankfurt Motor Show, Hyundai’s latest concept model is a look at the future of electric mobility. Simply named 45, this new electric design concept pays homage to one of the most iconic vehicles in Hyundai’s history. The progressive 45 puts a twist on a 45-year-old icon, the Hyundai Pony Coupe Concept, to introduce an entirely new in-car experience for the self-driving vehicles of tomorrow. 45 foreshadows a new era of Hyundai’s automotive design focused on electrification, autonomous technologies and intelligent design.

Precise. Bold. Dynamic.

The iconic front-end design with the kinetic cube lamps evokes analogue emotions, while at the same time applying cutting-edge technologies to take Hyundai’s lighting architecture to the next level.
Clean minimalistic lines.

The 45 strips away complexity, celebrating clean lines and minimalistic structure – the iconic character defined by the monocoque-style body and aerodynamic design inspired by planes from the 1920s.
A modern living space.

Inside, the minimalist cabin is fitted with an inviting fusion of wood, fabric and leather, creating a warm atmosphere that is both relaxing and spacious.
Reimaging the in-car experience.

In the 45, Hyundai is reimaging the in-car experience in a self-driven vehicle. The interior becomes a unique living space capable of transforming to accommodate a range of passenger lifestyle demands.

Pony

An icon from the past.

The Hyundai Forty-Five launched at the IAA 2019, pays homage to our heritage, the first challenger spirit, 45 years ago in 1974. And this same challenger spirit still lives in us today and will inspire the next 45 and a new era of electric car design.

Pony Coupe.

Designed by Italian designer Giogetto Giugiaro for the 1974 Turin Motor Show, the Hyundai Pony Coupe concept was meant to be pure and timeliness, and it became the icon for the brand. From its pure mass and geometric lines, akin to Origami, this distinctive sporty character was born.
