Electrification advances inexorably among all car
manufacturers. And there are many who are taking advantage of their prevalence
to take a look at their history in order to bring past models that gave them
success to the present. Hyundai is not one of the manufacturers with the
longest tradition, but to its credit, there are a couple of jewels that its
faithful adore. Do you remember what own development model you grew up with in
Europe? Yes, it was the Pony...
Before the Hyundai Pony, the South Korean house was already present on our continent. However, it was with him that they established themselves as a manufacturer with their own development technology. Then other models would come and their range would grow to where they are today. Well, to show what they are capable of in the Asian house, they would be about to hit the table. It would be to put the Hyundai N Vision 74 into production. Do you remember him?
How is the Hyundai N Vision 74…?
If you do a bit of memory you will remember that we already talked about the Hyundai N Vision 74 a year ago. Then the firm presented a conceptual model that sported a design halfway between the retro and the futuristic. Of course, all its angles reminded us of the mythical Pony that we have talked about and that it was the work of Giorgetto Giugiaro. However, between the N Vision 74 and the original Pony there were a series of changes that could not go unnoticed...
In the first place, due to a more aggressive front that included the Pixel LED optics embedded in the grill. Below, in the bumper, it had a very generous air intake. Already in the side view it stood out for elements in the purest style of video games. Faired sports wheels, supplementation in the wheel arches and a very generous air intake in front of the rear step. In addition to the large spoiler that crowns the trunk lid.
Yes, in the rear the front Pixel LED optics were replicated on a black trim with a pixel effect. But the most interesting thing is the spoiler with the N logo under its wing on the right side and a little below the Hyundai name in the optical style. Already in the lower area, the bumper has an aggressive diffuser to channel the air and next to it, in a central position, the third brake light with a triangular shape. Overall, aggressiveness and a lot of sensationalism...
Could the N Vision 74 really go into production…?
Well for now we are going to leave it at no... Yes because the rumor about its launch comes through Money Today and this medium has not indicated where they got the information from. They have simply limited themselves to indicating that the firm will make an announcement in this regard on May 27. It seems that the day chosen is that of "Pony Day" that will be held in the design studio they have in Seoul and that will bring together a large part of the sector's media...
The fact is that if the N Vision 74 reaches production, it will not do so like the concept version. And it is not about its aesthetics, but also about its elaborate and complex electric powertrain that was fueled by hydrogen. What perhaps could be maintained would be the two electric motors powered by a large lithium ion battery. If so, it would become the pinnacle of the Hyundai range but until next May 27, it is better not to get your hopes up...
Not…?
