Hyundai has been relatively successful in the electric vehicle game so far with its Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 models, and now the Korean carmaker has its sights set on the flagship SUV space.
As one of 23 electric models that the firm plans to launch by 2030, the new Ioniq 9 offers seating for seven in a flat-floor interior with swivelling relaxation seats and a slidable Universal Island 2.0 console to enhance the passenger experience.
The console, which has two large storage trays, can be moved by up to 190mm, allowing passengers in the second row to access it easily.
The Relaxation Seats feature Hyundais first Dynamic Body Care system, which includes a Dynamic Touch Massage function designed to stimulate blood flow and circulation on long drives.
Cabin tech includes a voice-activated AI assistant, which is similar to a home virtual assistant, and front occupants can interact with a panoramic curved display, featuring dual 12-inch displays and an optional Bose 14-speaker surround sound system.
