In terms of exterior, the new car's front face is simple and grand, with multiple horizontal lines enriching the visual layering. The headlight assembly is composed of four rectangular elements inside, and the bottom adopts an active open-close intake grille. The side of the body features a floating roof and hidden door handles. The two-tone 20-inch wheels are very stylish, and the rear is accented by a smoked black through light strip, while the black lower guard below echoes the front of the car. The new car offers 7 exterior color options: Twilight Mountain Purple, Pearl White, Pearl Black, Dawn White, Cyber Silver, Turquoise Blue, and Camouflage Gray.

Dada Review: The Beijing Hyundai ELEXIO is Beijing Hyundai's first compact SUV under a pure electric platform. Its exterior design has extremely high recognizability. The cabin will be equipped with a 27-inch integrated curved screen, paddle shifters behind the steering wheel, and HUD head-up display as standard across the lineup. For intelligent driving, it adopts the "Haomo.AI" assisted driving solution, and by 2026 it will achieve L2+ level urban automatic assisted driving functions. Judging from information from various sources, the new car's price may be in the 100,000-150,000 yuan range, forming a competitive relationship with the Geely Galaxy E5. In comparison, the Beijing Hyundai ELEXIO has a stronger sense of technology, while the Galaxy E5 pays more attention to practicality. The ELEXIO also has certain advantages in space and range, and it is believed that it will have good sales performance.
