Hyundai has just unveiled a teaser for its upcoming Hyundai Ioniq 9, a fully electric 7-seater SUV that promises to combine space, comfort, and cutting-edge design. This new flagship model represents Hyundai’s continued commitment to electrification and serves as the latest evolution in their growing Ioniq lineup.
Officially slated for a November debut, Hyundai has shared early glimpses of the Ioniq 9, hinting at the brand’s first foray into the large electric SUV market. The car is gonna have much in common with the Kia EV9, which is based on the same e-GMP large platform we already appreciated.

Ioniq 9 is the next chapter of the family lineup

The “9” designation not only marks the model’s flagship status but also represents Hyundai’s entry into the premium, larger SUV segment within its electric lineup. Like the IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 6, the IONIQ 9 will be built on Hyundai’s innovative Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), which has already set new standards for spacious, comfortable interiors in the EV market.

This advanced platform allows for a flat cabin floor and extended wheelbase, creating ample room for passengers, including a third row, while also enhancing the driving experience through a low center of gravity.

Aerodynamic design and elegance

The IONIQ 9 features Hyundai’s signature “Aerosthetic” design philosophy, which blends aerodynamic efficiency with a modern, streamlined aesthetic. Drawing inspiration from luxury yachts, the IONIQ 9 boasts a gracefully curved roofline and a long wheelbase that emphasizes a spacious, welcoming cabin. Sketches reveal sleek side lines, inspired by the flowing shapes of the traditional Korean Hanbok, and an interior that promises to be as comforting as it is spacious.
