Hyundai is testing a smaller electric SUV — could it be the IONIQ 4? [Video]

A disguised Hyundai SUV has been spotted out testing, giving us an early look at what’s thought to be the IONIQ 4, or possibly the IONIQ 1.

After opening orders for the IONIQ 3 in the UK and Europe, Hyundai appears to be testing another compact electric vehicle.

The IONIQ 3 is Hyundai’s first compact EV under the IONIQ brand, designed and produced for Europe.

While the IONIQ 3 brings a new “Aero Hatch” design to the brand, the camouflaged vehicle spotted driving in South Korea has a more upright design, closer to a traditional SUV.

During its CEO Investor Day in August, Hyundai Motor revealed plans to launch 100 new or refreshed vehicles between now and 2030, including 58 in North America, 49 in South Korea, 41 in Europe, and 26 in India.

Alongside the recently launched IONIQ 3 and new Tucson, Hyundai will introduce a new electric A-SUV for India, a global B-SUV, and another B-SUV for Europe.

Hyundai has yet to confirm it, but the new B-segment SUV is expected to arrive as the IONIQ 4. A disguised prototype was spotted driving in South Korea that’s thought to be either the IONIQ 4 or possibly the IONIQ 1.

The video from ShortsCar offers an early look at Hyundai’s electric SUV. Unlike the IONIQ 3, the vehicle has a boxy, SUV-like design.

It’s hard to determine an exact size from the video, but the SUV looks nearly identical to the prototype caught testing in March.
