Prophecy follows suit with an iconic silhouette of perfect proportions that have been inspired by an aerodynamic design. Image: Hyundai
Leveraging the extended wheelbase and shorter overhang, Hyundai’s designers have achieved the Ultimate Automotive Form, thanks to a new EV architecture defined by pristine surfaces and pure volume in combination with aesthetic harmony and functionality. Image: Hyundai
The pixel lamp lights, which were first seen on the ‘45’, take a step forward. Image: Hyundai
This progressive lighting technology is integrated into the headlamp, tail lamp and spoiler, calling to mind the abundant energy contained in the vehicle’s battery cells. Image: Hyundai
The propeller shapes embedded in the vehicle’s wheel not only affirm this trait, they also compel air to be drawn in and flow down the side of the body like water over a stone. Image: Hyundai
A wide air intake that is installed below the bumper takes fresh air to cool the batteries more effectively, delivering an even more eco-friendly EV to customers. Image: Hyundai
Prophecy also utilises autonomous driving technology. Image: Hyundai
Instead of a steering wheel, joysticks provide a completely new yet reassuringly familiar and intuitive driving experience. Image: Hyundai
By offering two joysticks that can pivot left and right, one in the centre console and another on the door trim, drivers are able to control the vehicle from a position of comfort. Image: Hyundai
In a comfortably reclined position, all that the passengers see is the horizontal pillar-to-pillar display and the wing-shaped dashboard. Image: Hyundai
In this mode, the dashboard swivels, allowing for a spacious interior and seat position from which passengers are able to enjoy content shown on the display.
The flow of clean air over the interior’s wool-based felt carpet is inspired by the flow of water in nature. Image: Hyundai
