This Hyundai UTV is a futuristic electric side-by-side concept designed by Roman Ignatowski, imagined with a tough, no-frills modular design and a body of clean lines and minimalist styling that still looks fashionable. It is an independent designer project rather than official Hyundai concept art, but it captures what a recreational electric utility vehicle from the brand could become.
What is the Hyundai electric UTV concept?
"I find Hyundai's modern design language and approach to concept cars exciting, bold and non-trivial. Inspired by their style and recent concepts, I created my own project, a vision of how a side-by-side / recreational electric utility vehicle of that brand could look like," Roman Ignatowski says of his project. As autoevolution notes, the open, Jeep-like four-door layout uses slit-style light strips and a cyberpunk-tinged aesthetic while keeping the silhouette rugged and simple.
How modular is this side-by-side?
There are several modularity choices available, allowing for flexible vehicle configuration. Depending on the requirements and kind of activity, everything down to the roof, hood, and internal space can be controlled down to the last detail. As UTV Driver reports, the hood and roof can even be specced with solar panels to top up the battery, reinforcing the vehicle's go-anywhere, self-sufficient intent.
What can this electric UTV do?
One day the UTV could be a beach buggy, and the next it might be an open Jeep climbing a mountain. If necessary, all of the seats, aside from the one used for driving, can be folded and stored out of the way to transport freight. That flexibility is exactly what makes a modern electric UTV so appealing for both work and recreation.
