現代明年預計推出純電動SUV，其原型車日前在南韓首爾隔壁的城南市被拍到
這款SUV的規格跟名稱還不得而知
尺寸跟KIA的中小型SUV Niro差不多，比起現代自己剛發表的新車Ioniq稍大
而車輪看起來跟Ioniq一樣
另外去年年底現代宣布在2020年之前要推出14款新能源車
分別是五款HEV(混合動力車)、四款PHEV(插電式混合動力車)、四款BEV(電動車)、
一款FCV(燃料電池車)
現代真的是越來越厲害了，這些車款在價格上應該會比歐洲大廠推的新能源車價格更親民
國外的電動車、充電基礎設施都在快速發展中
但台灣好像是另外一個世界一樣沒消沒息...

Hyundai moves quick with new all-electric long-range SUV, prototype
spotted ahead of next year’s launch
While Hyundai is one of the biggest automakers still pushing for fuel
cell hydrogen and they admitted that they “are only making electric
plug-ins until hydrogen fuel cell vehicles take hold”, the EV market is
still going to take those new electric cars until the Korean automaker
realizes that battery-powered vehicles make more sense.
The IONIQ Electric is a great entry in the all-electric space for Hyundai
and despite its view of EVs, the company is now quickly moving forward
with a longer range all-electric SUV. A prototype was spotted for the
first time and the vehicle is expected to hit the market as soon as next
year.
It might seem like a quick turnaround, but the IONIQ also came out of
nowhere for a lot of industry watchers. The company has been working on a
new all-electric platform with a 64 kWh battery pack that could bring the
range of midsize vehicles using the platform to just over 200 miles –
that’s up from ~100 miles with the IONIQ’s 28 kWh battery pack.
The first prototype has been spotted this week in a parking lot in
Seongnam-si.
It was heavily camouflaged and therefore, it’s hard to distinguish any
specific design feature, but Korea’s ETNews claims that it was able to
confirm that the prototype is the new all-electric SUV that Hyundai plans
to launch next year:
It appears to be a small to midsize SUV. The person who took the picture
told ETNews:
“By chance, I saw SUV model that looked to be either a PHEV (Plug-in
Hybrid Electric Vehicle) or an electric vehicle being charged at a
parking lot of an E-Mart that is located in Seongnam-si. Size of this
vehicle is about Kia Motors’ SUV called ‘Niro’ and is slightly bigger
than ‘IONIQ Electric’ and its wheels were looked to be same as the ones
on IONIQ.”
Hyundai refused to release any detail about the vehicle program other
than the fact that it exists:
“Although it is true that we are developing SUV electric vehicle with a
goal of releasing in 2018, we cannot disclose any information such as
name and specifications of new models due to confidentiality.
Late last year, Hyundai CEO Dave Zuchowski, who has since been ousted,
confirmed that the company is planning to release five hybrids (HEV),
four plug-in hybrids (PHEV), four electric vehicles (BEV) and one fuel
cell vehicle (FCV) by 2020.
If the launch is planned for 2018 and it happens in a similar way as the
IONIQ launch, the new electric SUV is likely to only be available in
South Korea and maybe Europe in 2018 since Hyundai is only gradually
launching different HEV, PHEV, and BEV versions of the IONIQ in the US a
few quarters after the original launch of the new model.
