Hyundai Motor Company has once again demonstrated its prowess in innovative design by clinching six top honours at the 2023 Good Design Awards in the US.
The accolades, including four in the transportation category and two in the interactive media category, highlight Hyundai’s consistent commitment to cutting-edge design.

In the transportation category, Hyundai Motor achieved the honour of having four products selected: the N Vision 74, IONIQ 6, Grandeur (Azera), and Kona.
The N Vision 74, a high-performance hydrogen hybrid “rolling lab,” secured a grand-slam by winning all four major global design awards (iF, IDEA, Red Dot, Good Design).
The IONIQ 6 distinguished itself with a sleek exterior and stylish interior design, boasting the lowest aerodynamic drag coefficient (Cd) of 0.21 among all Hyundai Motor vehicles.
