Hyundai Motor's IONIQ 5 and STARIA Win GOOD DESIGN Awards

  • Hyundai sweeps awards in five different categories, with its newly introduced dedicated BEV and MPV models to be honored in the transportation category
  • Awards reflect competitiveness of Hyundai’s #design identity in the global market

SEOUL, January 10, 2022 #Hyundai Motor Company announced it has received multiple accolades at 2021 GOOD #design Awards, with its #ioniq5 and #STARIA models both selected as winners in the transportation category. #Hyundai Motor also triumphed across several other categories, including interactive media, household, mobile applications and graphic #design.

“We are greatly honored to be recognized by GOOD #design Awards for these very important vehicles and innovations,” said SangYup Lee, Executive Vice President and Head of #Hyundai Global #design Center. “This honor speaks to the outstanding work of our #design dream team, who put their passion and heart into this project and also our R&D center engineers who made this achievement together. It also reflects the competitiveness of Hyundai’s #design identity in the global marketplace.”

IONIQ 5 is #Hyundai Motor’s midsize crossover utility vehicle built on a dedicated battery electric vehicle (BEV) platform. Its progressive #design explores a new #ev typology that has been well received by consumers around the world. Hyundai’s signature Parametric Pixels on the vehicle’s exterior lightings provide a distinct, modern style while representing IONIQ 5’s timeless #design value.

A ‘Living Space’ theme runs throughout IONIQ 5’s interior, most notably embodied by the Universal Island, a moveable center console, and flat floor where the batteries are stored. Many of its interior touchpoints, such as seats, headliner, door trim, floor and armrest, are made of eco-friendly materials, reflecting Hyundai’s commitment to a more clean and sustainable future for all.

STARIA, Hyundai’s multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) lineup, boasts a strikingly futuristic and mysterious exterior that evokes a spaceship. A single stroke running from front to rear is reminiscent of the curve of light that illuminates the Earth’s horizon at sunrise when viewed from space.

The cruise ship-inspired interior of #STARIA delivers a unique atmosphere that focuses on the driver’s convenience and passengers’ comfort. The lowered beltlines and panoramic side windows improve overall visibility and create a feeling of openness. This sense of spaciousness, inspired by traditional Korean ‘hanok’ architecture, allows passengers to feel as if the outside scenes are an extension of the vehicle interior.
