About the Hyundai 45 Concept

Concept car 45 puts a twist on an icon of Hyundai: the 1974 Pony Coupe Concept, which early on defined the design DNA of the smart mobility provider. 45 takes its name from the 45-degree angles of the front and rear window lines which form a monocoque-style body. The modernized fastback is characterized by its clean lines and minimalistic structure.

With this concept car, Hyundai rethinks existing technologies by utilizing side cameras instead of traditional wing mirrors. Additionally, its interior is a unique living space capable of transforming to accommodate a range of passenger lifestyle demands.
