Autonomous car designs to be non-aggressive: Hyundai
…
The head of design for Hyundai says that autonomous and electric vehicles will likely adapt a non-aggressive design philosophy to suit their inherent nature going forward, with only the second-generation of these vehicles likely to deviate from the path.
Hyundai has confirmed it is working on a two-seater hybrid sports car that will sit at the very top of its expanding performance range.
Using the Consumer Electric Show (CES) in Las Vegas this week as a showcase for its future technologies such as fuel cell and autonomous driving, the South Korean brand was quick to point out that while it powers ahead in that direction of future transportation, it is also foraying into the serious sports car world.
Kia has handed down a series of shadowy teasers for its expected Niro EV, first reported in February last year.
Based on the petrol-electric Niro hybrid SUV revealed a full year before reports of an all-electric model surfaced, next week's unveiling is described as a concept - although the preview images suggest we can expect a design very similar to the existing Niro.
Images of what appear to be the next-generation 2018 Kia Cerato and/or Cee'd have surfaced online, showing the new small hatch parked without disguise on a South Korean street.
These photos, posted to South Korean online community MotorGraph just before Christmas, were sent to CarAdvice by the keen KDM fans behind the Kia GT Australia facebook page.
