Hyundai IONIQ 9 Spied in Nevada

Posted on October 6, 2024 By rehan.rafique No Comments on Hyundai IONIQ 9 Spied in Nevada

During 2024 CEO Investor Day, Hyundai finally unveiled the name of its large electric SUV, to be named IONIQ 9 and set to be revealed at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show in November. A new set of IONIQ 9 spy pictures with less camouflage was spied by our follower @_vofking_ in Nevada.

The IONIQ 9 has already undergone test production at Hyundai’s Asan plant in South Korea, with final quality checks currently underway. The vehicle is expected to be produced at Hyundai’s new Meta Plant in Georgia, USA, scheduled for completion by the end of this year. Local production is deemed essential to meet the high demand for large electric SUVs in the U.S. market.

Why IONIQ 9?

The Hyundai IONIQ brand has been at the forefront of the company’s electric vehicle innovation. Offering a range of models designed to cater to various consumer needs and preferences. However, the naming convention of these models has taken a significant turn. The decision to transition from the “7” to the “9” is more than just a numerical jump. It is a strategic move that aligns with the vehicle’s stature and Hyundai’s future aspirations.

The IONIQ 9 will be Hyundai’s largest electric SUV, a beacon of luxury, space, and cutting-edge technology. In this context, the number ‘9’ is more representative of its flagship status, distinguishing it as the pinnacle of Hyundai’s electric offerings. This change addresses a logical progression in Hyundai’s lineup. The number ‘7’ could potentially be reserved for a smaller vehicle, ensuring a clear and intuitive hierarchy within the brand.

This move to rename the IONIQ 9 is a testament to the company’s commitment to innovation and excellence. This model will set new benchmarks in terms of performance, comfort, and sustainability. Initially set to debut at Busan Motor Show the past June, Hyundai now aims to offer the convenience of electric mobility with the luxury and spaciousness that one would expect from a large SUV.

The Impact on Hyundai’s Electric Vehicle Strategy

The strategic name change from IONIQ 7 to IONIQ 9 is a bold move by Hyundai, reflecting its commitment to innovation and leadership in the electric vehicle industry.
