Hyundai teases I-oniq concept for Geneva

Hyundai has decided to drop a little gift ahead of the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. Yes, we said Geneva, which means this teaser comes a full three months before the curtains drop on its official debut.

In any case, the Korean automaker says the I-oniq "will preview the next evolution of the brand's 'fluidic sculpture' form language," and that its two strong arched curves create "a playful contrast between the sharp character lines and soft but muscular features." Who are we to argue?

Based on this image alone, it's hard to say whether this is a hatchback, a shooting brake, a crossover of sorts or even a four-door coupe in the vein of the Mercedes-Benz CLS.

Rüsselsheim, December 14th 2011

Hyundai has given a first glimpse of its new i-oniq concept car, which will preview the next evolution of the brand's 'fluidic sculpture' form language.

Describing the i-oniq, Thomas Bürkle, Hyundai's European Chief Designer, said, "Two strong arched curves define the silhouette of i-oniq, creating a playful contrast between the sharp character lines and soft but muscular features."

The i-oniq concept was designed and developed at the company's European R&D centre in Rüsselsheim, Germany. More information about i-oniq will be revealed ahead of its world premiere at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show.
