Fluid
Finally this is a Geneva's first among the scarcely spread concepts in the Pal Expo. The Hyundai on the turning table is hard to boil down. Is it big, high, compact, too massive, sleek, shooting brake or coupe? Nevertheless, the I-ioniq is a fluidly modeled sculpture without transitions between glass and metal panels. With this approach it is possible to pull the trick with the shooting brake center section and coupe greenhouse, hence the tent like roof. Muscled bone lines and crisp edges. I like the carved out quarter panel at the front and the family of details.

one more nice square...Hyundai also displayed the car in BJ and i was surprised...looks like they will change their products...the c-pillar is the hottest edge.

Clearly one of the most interesting cars of show, although the choice of color & trim made it more difficult to appreciate. Elegant in many places and a clear break away from the rather busy mainstream Hyundai language. Like - especially high rear 3/4. (Would've voted for cameras in the glazing though - area looks kinda empty here).
Cool job by Formfreund Tom.
