While Hyundai has confirmed that the N Vision 74 Concept will not be heading for production, its presence at Villa d'Este proves that sometimes beauty exists purely to captivate our imaginations. The striking combination of classic design cues and futuristic elements showcased Hyundai's commitment to pushing boundaries and exploring new frontiers in automotive design.
Prior to its debut at the esteemed Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este in Italy, the N Vision 74 was exhibited alongside the recreated 1974 Hyundai Pony Coupe Concept in Lake Como. This display served as a testament to Hyundai's rich design heritage and the evolution of their DNA.
From its dynamic front fascia, accentuated by sharp LED headlights, to its aerodynamic silhouette and elegantly sculpted rear, every detail of the N Vision 74 Concept exudes an air of sophistication. The concept's unique retro-modern alloy wheels and sleek side mirrors add further character to an already remarkable design.

Equipped with a hydrogen fuel cell electric hybrid powertrain, the concept boasts dual electric motors that generate an impressive combined output of 670 horsepower (500 kW / 680 PS) and 664 lb-ft (900 Nm) of torque. Power is supplied by a 62.4 kWh battery, complemented by dual hydrogen fuel tanks that can be refilled in just 5 minutes, offering a remarkable range of 373 miles (600 km).
