Hyundai Spy Shots Cars

Hyundai unveiled the new-generation Kona back in 2017, and it remained pretty much unchanged ever since. A new generation has been spotted out in the wild for quite some time now: for example, back in February, it was seen testing in Sweden. Today, the car was caught testing out in the wild once again, but this time, we also get a good look of the interior.

Hyundai has big plans for its Ioniq electric sub-brand: it will launch 23 new electric models by 2025. It all started with the launch of the Ioniq 5, and will continue with the Ioniq 6, but also an N version of the recently launched electric hatch. In fact, the next Ioniq 5 N was caught testing a few times before, but today the electric hatch has been spied testing closer to Nürburgring.

Hyundai is using the Ioniq moniker for quite a few years now. But, until recently, it was only used for one model. Now, Ioniq has become Hyundai’s sub-electric brand and the plan is to include a total of 23 electric models by 2025. While the first model launched under this new nomenclature was the Ioniq 5, the next few months will also see the launch of the Ioniq 6. The model has been caught playing in the snow before, and today, it is out for some more testing on the German roads.

It was just a few days ago that Hyundai teased a picture of its upcoming three-row Palisade. While we got nothing more aside from snippets of the front end and the side profile, this picture leaked by brettdaviscars gives us an idea of what the rest of it looks like.

Hyundai announced the Ioniq 5 back in February 2021, and in early 2022, we got the first proof that the company will also launch an N version for the electric hatch. In fact, this shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone, as Hyundai plans to have 23 new electric models by 2025.

Today our spy photographers caught the next Ioniq N out for a new testing session, this time wearing a different camouflage that reveals more details.

Despite being not even two years old, the Palisade is about to receive its first facelift. Hyundai started testing the facelift version back in February when we spied the first prototype out in the snow. Now, our spy photographers managed to spot another Palisade Facelift prototype out for some testing session in the cold weather of Northern Europe.

Its been almost a year since Hyundai announced the Ioniq 5 for the first time, and less than two months since, it was put on sale. But, it can never be too soon to offer you more good news when it comes to the Ioniq 5.

We already knew that Hyundai has big plans for the future. By 2025, the company wants to have 23 EVs in its lineup, and it looks like one of these 23 electric cars will be an N version of the Ioniq 5.

The Hyundai Kona has been spotted testing for the first time, and it appears to have grown in size. Spotted in Sweden during its winter testing, the Kona prototype is heavily camouflaged, suggesting a new generation under the skin. It might as well be true since the current Kona has been around since 2017.

Placed above the Santa Fe, the Palisade is a very new model in Hyundai’s lineup. It debuted at the 2018 Los Angeles Auto Show and went on sale in 2019, so it is basically not even two years old. But, it looks like the SUV is about to get its first facelift version as the first prototype was caught out for a testing session. It is not the usual light camouflage we see on facelift prototypes either. In fact, most of the body of this Palisade is hidden, meaning we should expect some major updates.

Back in 2021, Hyundai sold a total of 19,614 examples of the Accent, which was up from the 15,975 copies sold back in 2020, but way under from what it used to be. For example, back in 2017, a total of 58,955 Accents were sold. So, after only five years on the market, Hyundai is thinking to replace the fifth-generation Accent with a new one, that hopefully will be better.

Tesla enjoyed its supremacy in the electric car market for quite a while. But, things will change in the future as more and more automakers are starting to add electric cars to their lineup. Hyundai, for example, started by offering the Ioniq 5, and will continue with a series of other models using the same "Ioniq" nomenclature. Right now, we know that the Ioniq 6 will follow, but Hyundai plans to transform the "Ioniq" into a sub-brand in the near future.

The Hyundai Accent, or Verna, as it is known in some parts of the world. is now in its fifth generation. A sixth-generation is around the corner, and, these spy shots show the South Korean automaker has already begun testing it.

The prototype caught testing is heavily camouflaged, but we can still decipher what the new Accent will look like

Our spy photographers caught the upcoming Hyundai Ioniq 6 out for a new testing session of the streets of Germany. It looks like Hyundai engineers are busy testing the prototype in normal road conditions, before sending it to Scandinavia for winter testing under extreme cold conditions.

Hyundai has a fairly long lineup of sedans and SUVs. With that covered, the company now plans to enter the pickup truck market, too. Back in 2015, Hyundai revealed the Santa Cruz truck concept at the Detroit Auto Show. Not a lot is known about the production model yet, but it will be based on the new Tucson SUV and will have a unibody construction. The truck has been spotted a few times over the years during its test runs, but we’re yet to see it without camouflage. The production is set to begin this year, and Hyundai could debut it sometime next year with deliveries starting soon after.

The rumors about a hot version of the Elantra are finally confirmed. A camouflaged Elantra with a significantly more aggressive body kit has been seen out doing tests. Similar to the European i30, the performance theme does not end with the N Line, but instead it continues with a full-blown performance version in the form of the Elantra N. Here is everything we know so far about the latest addition to Hyundai’s performance lineup.

The 2020 Hyundai i10 N is a higher performance version of the company’s third-generation hatchback. Set to be unveiled at the 2019 Frankfurt Motor Show, the tiny i10 will spawn a more powerful variant in 2020. At least that’s what the recent spy shots suggest. Our paparazzi spotted a slightly beefed-up i10 testing on public roads and we have reasons to believe that it will sport an "N" badge.

This will be the first time the i10 spawns a higher performance version. Although it’s been around since 2007, the i10 was never more than just a mundane city car with small engines rated at well below 100 horsepower. This could change with the third-generation model. Let’s find out more about it in my speculative review below.
