The Electric Luxury City Car: A New Vehicle Typology
The #mintconcept respects city life and the challenges it dispatches on a regular basis. The lightweight runabout reimagines the iconic shape of the city car, tailored to the needs of modern lifestyle. Mint is both highly maneuverable and exhilarating to drive.
“The #mintconcept disconnects the physical dimensions of the vehicle from its positioning as a premium product, calquing the city car of the past to today,” said Luc Donckerwolke, Executive Vice President and Chief Design Officer of Hyundai Motor Group. “The #mintconcept is a designer’s Occam’s razor that challenged us to visualize a scaled-down interpretation of our signature aesthetic.”
The #mintconcept represents a holistic collaboration among #genesis design studios located around the world, led by #genesis Global Advanced Design in Germany, #genesis Design Team in the U.S., and the Namyang Design Center in South Korea.
