Hyundai today confirmed it will introduce on the market its first three-row electric SUV will be launched before the end of the year, as a 2025 model.
Recall that the automaker announced the development of a larger Ioniq SUV at the time it introduced the Ioniq sub-brand in 2020. That presentation features the Ioniq 5 and 7 SUVs, and the Ioniq 6 car, all electric models and all to come in the near-future. The Ioniq 5 and 6 are already on the road, which would logically mean this newly promised three-row model will be known as the Ioniq 7 when it debuts.
