• Hyundai’s hydrogen-electric sports car concept from 2022 may be built
• The concept was mentioned in an investor slide outlining Hyundai’s plan to launch 21 EVs by 2030
• The concept’s design was inspired by Hyundai’s Pony Coupe concept of 1974

Hyundai in an investor presentation held on Wednesday confirmed plans to launch 21 electric vehicles by 2030.

The EVs will range from affordable offerings to luxury and high-performance vehicles, and one of them may turn out to be a production version of Hyundai’s N Vision 74 concept from 2022.

In a corresponding slideshow outlining the information announced during the presentation, Hyundai noted the N Vision 74 on a page mentioning the plans for 21 new EVs by 2030.

It’s not a confirmation that the N Vision 74 concept is headed for production, though it suggests Hyundai is at least planning a vehicle like it.

Hyundai said during the presentation that some of the new EVs will be from the Hyundai N performance division, further emphasizing that we may see a production version of the N Vision 74 concept. The automaker also said some of the new EVs will be from Genesis’ recently established Magma performance division. A production version of the GV60 Magma concept shown earlier this year was specifically mentioned.

The N Vision 74 concept was rolled out in 2022 as a celebration of the original Giugiaro-designed Hyundai Pony Coupe concept of 1974, hence the “74” in its name. It also served as a testbed for electrification technology and as a sign of Hyundai’s commitment to develop an electrified sports car.

The concept is powered by a pair of electric motors at the rear axle delivering a combined 670 hp. Those motors drew energy from both a T-shape battery in the center of the vehicle and a hydrogen fuel cell stack mounted at the front. The hydrogen storage tanks for the fuel cell are mounted at the rear. The fuel cell is used as the basic power source and energy stored in the battery is called on for high-load situations.

Whether such a configuration will feature in any production version of the N Vision 74 concept is unclear, though there are rumors the somewhat complex powertrain will be used for a limited run of 100 examples of the sports car due around 2026.
