The Motor Show returns to Barcelona. From May 11 to 21, the Fira de Barcelona pavilions in Montjuïc will become the showcase where car manufacturers will show the public their latest models, trends and innovations, especially in the field of electrification. Hyundai’s electrification offering is one of the most complete on the market, being the only manufacturer to offer all five electrified technologies in the range: 48V, electric hybrid, plug-in hybrid, 100% electric and combustion cell. The protagonist of the Hyundai universe that the manufacturer will deploy in Barcelona is the new Hyundai Kona which will make its official debut in Spain to the general public at the motor show. A vehicle that strives for groundbreaking design and a state-of-the-art technology package. The new Kona will be available in petrol, hybrid and 100% electric versions. With its robust and dynamic design and larger dimensions, the new Kona retains its iconic character. Designed for all types of customers with an active lifestyle, it offers the latest technologies and practical features that ensure a safe, connected and comfortable experience. Together with the new Kona, the entire electrified range will be present, where the new Ioniq 6 stands out, a bastion of the new mobility era and recently, as in 2022 Ioniq 5, awarded as the car of the year in the world, electric car in the world and best design in the world. Ioniq 6 shows that the electrification of our roads is already a reality with a range of up to 614 km and a charging time of less than 20 minutes to 80%, removing the main barriers to electric mobility. Ioniq 6 is committed to a breakthrough design and state-of-the-art technology package that brings the experience of driving a 100% electric vehicle closer to the level of comfort and habitability typical of the premium segments. Interior Based on the model’s larger dimensions and a universal EV-derived architecture, Hyundai Motor has succeeded in designing a larger interior “living space” that encompasses a fuller range of lifestyles. The driver-facing front row is accentuated by a floating horizontal C-pad with two integrated 12.3-inch widescreen displays that confirm the Kona’s high-tech character. As part of the Kona’s new layout, the electronic shift selector has been moved from the center console to just behind the steering wheel, providing more storage space thanks to this new dashboard design. The layout also emphasizes Kona’s larger and more spacious interior, providing versatile and comfortable space for the driver and passengers. The new model takes connectivity to the next level with continuous Over-the-Air (OTA) software updates, helping owners save costs and keep their cars running on the latest software, delivering an upgradable experience. For added convenience, the Kona can be locked, unlocked and started via the digital key, using Near Field Communication (NFC) from smartphones or smartwatches, ensuring a high level of security. Inside, dual 12.3-inch widescreen displays are integrated into the audio-video navigation system (AVN) to provide drivers with an immersive digital experience.
