PETALING JAYA: Hyundai Ioniq has won the 2016 Good Design awards, in recognition of successful application of its design philosophy.
The company received the design award for the Ioniq, two consecutive years in 2015 and this year, which is the first in the world to offer three distinct electrified powertrains on a single, dedicated vehicle platform – the Ioniq Hybrid, Plug-in Hybrid and Electric.
The Ioniq will attract an entirely new group of eco-oriented buyers in the US market as the world’s first dedicated vehicle platform with three electrified eco-friendly powertrain choices.
Ioniq meets the needs of a large and growing group of buyers needing a highly efficient, low-emissions vehicle without compromise to their demand on aerodynamic design as well as vehicle performance.
