Hyundai announced today that it will unveil a new concept at the Geneva Motor Show - the Hyundai HED-6. The Hyundai HED-6 is a compact SUV which was styled at the company’s European Design headquarters in Russelsheim, Germany. The Hyundai HED-6 is powered by a 1.6-litre GDi turbocharged engine that develops 175 hp and comes equipped with LED daytime running lights.
The Hyundai HED-6 also comes with a three-dimensional, sculpted Lexan plastic rear window and a special Ice Blue exterior paint.
The Hyundai HED-6 aims for a muscular design and everyday utility and is developed to work well in a both urban and off-road environment.
The company will also display at the show, besides the Hyundai HED-6, the new three-door i20 and the i30 blue equipped with the stop-start technology.

HED-6 concept car
Hyundai’s European design team has combined muscular design with everyday utility to create a car which will fit comfortably in an urban or out-of-town environment. The dramatic exterior look is enhanced by the hexagonal grille, angular style lines and piercing back-swept front headlamps,
with the bold look completed by 21-inch, mirror-polished alloy wheels.
The three-dimensional, sculpted shape of the rear window is achieved using “Lexan” high-performance plastics instead of regular glass. To emphasise the dynamic flowing lines, the designers have developed a special ‘Ice Blue’ exterior paint, with an advanced pigment effect for a brilliant shine.
Equipped with LED daytime running lights and powered by a 175hp, 1.6-litre GDi turbocharged engine, HED-6 gives a clear indication of the
direction Hyundai will take with its next generation of Hyundai SUVs.
Allan Rushforth, Vice President at Hyundai Motor Europe said, “The HED-6 brings an entirely new look to Hyundai’s SUV line-up. It fuses a robust exterior with a fresh and elegant interior, making for an eye-catching package, while its latest-generation power train highlights Hyundai’s clean-technology expertise.”
