Three-row passenger SUVs are big business in North America. As one of the most popular segments behind pickup trucks, just about every manufacturer either sells one today or is rushing to get one to market. At Hyundai, the Palisade is that vehicle, but it will soon be joined by an all-electric Ioniq 7.
Based on the Kia EV9, which also utilizes the enlarged E-GMP platform, the Hyundai Ioniq 7 will anchor the automaker's electric SUV lineup as its third-row crossover. Looking at the spy photos, the new SUV looks similar to its Kia cousin and the renderings we saw last year. The body and roofline are similar to the EV9, but judging from the coverings over the front and rear fascias, the front and rear will have a different design.
