Hyundai rolled out the Staria Camper Concept at the CMT trade fair in Stuttgart earlier this year, right after showing the electric Staria people carrier at the Brussels Motor Show. Built on the same platform as that fully electric MPV, this one-off study shows how the van could shift into a premium recreational vehicle aimed first at European buyers who want daily practicality mixed with longer trips away from the grid.
Khyzyl Saleem took one look at Hyundai’s boxy Santa Fe and decided the three-row people mover needed a completely different life. The result is a widebody two-door prerunner that looks ready to hammer through the Baja 1000 rather than sit in a school pickup line. Hyundai USA liked the idea enough to post the renders on its own channels and ask fans which model should get the same treatment next.
Hyundai just shared new technical details on its China-only electric fastback, and the numbers stand out right away. The Ioniq V carries two relatively small lithium iron phosphate battery packs yet posts some of the strongest official range claims in its segment. Deliveries start later this year in China, giving buyers there a fresh option built around efficiency rather than sheer battery size.
The Hyundai Staria Electric Camper Concept has finally arrived in Europe, and it is destined to change the way people think about road vacations and extended stays in the great outdoors. It was unveiled at the CMT trade expo in Stuttgart earlier this month, and it put on an excellent display, constructed on the same newly announced Staria Electric people carrier platform.
Hyundai just released a teaser for its Crater concept, a compact SUV built to shred through some extremely difficult country terrain. The sketches shared online have all the makings of a serious vehicle, with proportions that scream “take me offroad” and an attitude that indicates it can handle whatever the great outdoors throws at it. Short overhangs will come in help when squeezing through tight spaces, and the broad fenders are perfectly sized to hug the chunky tires that appear to be designed to chunk through sand.
