The Hyundai N Vision 74 Will RUIN the Sports Car Market 

THIS CAR IS SO FREAKING COOL

I wish the car industry would realize the vastness of demand there could be for modern cars made to look like 80s and 90s cars.

this car screams 80s cyberpunk and I absolutley love it, the boxiness and angular designs of that decade need to make a return.

my 05 santa fe has 265k miles and is still running strong.....if they can keep that reliability and improve...I will keep cheering them on.

I seriously wanna know who tf hurt Hyundai for them to go this hard on their new cars.

I really love the design, it's so special compared to 90% of cars on the road.

I am an entrepreneur and I have a car dealership that stores 50 cars at most. The cars range from early 2000's cheap boxes to newer, 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-classes. I've had 7 used Ioniq 5's in my dealership in the past year and a half, with all of them being sold within 2 weeks of arrival. They are popular, people like them for their looks and comfort, as well as the warranty that is considered one of the most trustworthy and reliable ones in Finland. I have never purchased a new car, because as a car dealer, I understand better than anyone what the realistic values of these cars are. And as for a car that I enjoy driving as an enthusiast, I've just been sticking to my R33 Skyline and '86 Grand National already for the past 8- and 5-years. Meanwhile my daily driver is a Nissan Cube. It's not because I couldn't afford more, I totally could buy a brand new AMG if I wanted to, but I just don't care nor see value in doing so. *BUT* ... If Hyundai were to make the NV74 a reality... I would buy one new, without a doubt. I haven't been as excited about a new car since the debut of the R35 GT-R (which I couldn't afford to buy at the time). I'm really hoping Hyundai will make this car a reality. As long as someone of my height, at 191cm can fit inside and drive it comfortably, I would buy one in a heartbeat.

This is perhaps one of the coolest concepts of the past 20 years. I hope it's also the kickstarter of a paradigm shift, away from those streamlined and happy faced eggs on wheels towards more distinctive characterization for each manufacturer and model.

Retro vibes are definitely becoming more popular in a lot of art so I can see this happening.

I’m not a car guy at all, but the second I saw this video when it came out, I decided I wanted one. Might be one of the dopest cars I have seen in a very long time. Hopefully you get to go and film some content on it!

The Pony Coupe concept not only inspired the Vision 74, but it went on to live in the Delorean DMC 12 as well. The guy who designed the Delorean, Giorgetto Giugiaro, also designed the Pony Coupe, when he found out that Hyundai wasn't moving forward with the Pony Coupe, the designer decided to use the same design for the DMC 12. Bottom line, if you like the DMC 12, thank Hyundai's partnership with Giorgetto Giugiaro just as much as John Delorean.

This will never happen but I would 100% buy a N74 with a manual transmission and the 3.3L. N division cares about driving dynamics and actual motorsport.

My first car was an 85 hyundai excel and if you asked me back then if id spend $60k on an electric hyundai in a few decades id laugh and say the company would be out of business by then. Well as a mechanic, I've watched hyundai over the years start to make cars that id put on a pedestal with honda and toyota when it came it reliability and value so of course I had to buy an Ioniq 5. Ive had this this thing for about 5 months and I absolutely love this car! My biggest complaint about the car is the giant emblem on the hood that I cant remove because it's recessed into the metal. Aside from the amazing reviews and performance of the car I was sold on the DeLorean-esqe styling and I think the Ioniq 6 is going to be a flop for its looks. The Io5 is no sports car in the suspension department but it has more than enough power for your average person and the awd stystem is amazing to hoon in the snow. Its hands down my favorite street vehicle I've ever owned and im super happy with spending $60k on a car from a company that couldnt make a car that lasted more than 50k miles just a few decades ago. The only thing thatd make me get rid of it at this point is if this concept car becomes a reality. Well done Hyundai! Keep up the good work!

It brings back that classic Trueno AE86, Supra, and Mitsu Starion vibe of the 80's. All the fans of these cars are in positions financially to delve into purchasing these .

In Germany, Hyundai is completely established in the car scene today. Especially the I30N is extremely popular with enthusiasts and is taking away a lot of sales for the Golf GTI 😄

Well, I’ll say this. As someone who owned a 2003 Tiburon, it was actually a pretty solid tuner platform. I was running a roots blower system with a liquid intercooler, engine management, bored out lower intake manifold and a CAI. I dyno tuned it to 270 whp on the stock internals with zero issues. It was one of the funner cars I’ve owned. I used to refer to mine as the “Korean Ferrari.” 😁

Honestly what drew me to this car was the styling. I love 80s JDM and Euro sports cars(i have a 944), the "boxy" straight cut lines has a appeal for me. To see that in a modern car looks awesome and a good throw back imho. Hyundai make this happen!

Whenever I see a pic of this thing I immediately hear 80's Synthwave music in my head.. Lovely 80's throwback design, imo.

What they could do is what they did with the Stinger, 4cyl turbo as the base engine and the 6cyl as the up level engine.

Even if they just put the engine from the Veloster N in it people would buy it just looks so cool and they definitely have to have a wheel option to put the turbo fans on

I own a 1981 DeLorean.... and I want the N74...love the styling and appearance of the concepts version. I hope Hyundai doesn't change a thing appearance wise.

If they ever made AWD versions of the veloster and elantra N I think it would make them serious contenders

Honestly, if they released it as is it'd easily be the coolest thing they've ever made. Love the retro yet futuristic feeling it's giving me.

I work at Hyundai started out with a mustang now I own a genesis coupe lol and have fallen in love with the brand Hyundai has really been coming up

My second car was a 3.8 Genesis coupe. It had the predecessor to the engine in the Kia stinger, putting out just over 300hp and driving it was an amazing experience. Ever since Hyundai branched Genesis off into its own brand, they’ve been missing a rwd sports car. When I saw the N Vision concept I was immediately sold, I hope that can come out with this car and eventually (at the very least) revive the Genesis Coupe 🥰

I hope we can option turbofans with it. Those wheels are sick

A wacky retro spiritual successor to the stinger would be nice. The Stinger is awesome, honestly one of the best cars in it's class with that hatch fastback design.

The design looks like a combo of a mid '80s AE86 and '90's 240SX with modern styling touches. I love it! Not crazy about the design of the Elantra but the '24 N model has a great new face lift! My older brother bought a new Hyundai Pony, seeing a Pony for the first time I thought it was a new Chevette lol! Really cool to see how far they've come!!👍👍

It looks futuristic while proudly inheriting something from the past. The most handsome and muscle looking electric car ever.

Given the recent news of the Ionic 5n and over 600 bhp from the electric motors in that, I suspect you're right about an electric powertrain for a production version of this. Either way, would be absolutely awesome to see these for sale!

As an ex-Hyundai salesman I think If it were to come it will probably be the 77.4 kWh AWD drivetrain to keep it affordable. v6 phev for Europe is 99% not happening

I have always wanted a "modern" delorean cyberpunk type car and this scratches that itch. If they come out with a manual inline 6 hybrid or v8 hybrid, I'm 100% in. I love the idea of electric motor assisted accelerations, going full ev for a bit if I really want to, but still having the sound and feel of a sizable engine with a stick would be the dream. The chances of all that are basically zero but imagine if they did.

Id wager if this concept gets to mass production it will be the defining car of this generation. Everyone will have one

I absolutely love this car. Powertrain options aside I really hope if they build it they stick to the styling in the concept Like a love child between a DeLorean and a Pantera.

This car is a banger. I remember seeing it over a year or so ago and falling in love with it. As a guy that was in his late teens in the 80’s, this car ticked a lot of boxes for me. A little 80’s 200sx, a dash of 80’s Supra, a splash of Delorean and a few 90’s cues here and there. Just a brilliant looking almost Pininfarina styled car. But with enough of its own styling to be its own thing. As an old dude, I figured my age group would obviously be drawn to this car. To see so many young guys (and gals) drawn to this car, makes me smile. I’m glad blatantly 80’s styling cues can resonate with so many. Especially after being so under appreciated for so long. The 80’s was a crazy era. Everything was being pushed to the boundaries just before the dawn of the mass adoption of the internet. It was a zenith. It was “maximum” and “extreme” everything. Just happy to see the love for this car. It’ll be amazing if they build it. I think they will.

I was thinking about this car on my way home from work last night after seeing it online a year or so ago and now this video pops up in the recommended nice

The N74 makes me think s13 hatchback/mk3 Supra if either of the bodies were slightly larger and modernized with todays tech. I personally love this design. Hope it is built

What needs to happen is companies not only put out what they want but what we want with votes and designs submitted and that way we can really get what we wanted

I have a 2017 hyundai elantra. I really enjoy it and don't usually go for any hype trains. I am not rich (obviously lol) but I honestly would try to find a way to get an n74 if they made it for a reasonable price. I actually think this is one of the nicest looking cars out there. I just wish they'd make an ICE version,if at all.

With the electrification of cars in the near future, I would love to see this Hyundai be the first to offer a light weight affordable electric sports car, they have all of the parts they just need to make it fun and sharp⚡️

The 80s look is super futuristic, lets go BACK to the future ❤

I want one so bad. I wouldn’t even mind a hybrid system. I usually don’t like hybrids, but lately, car makers have made hybrids cool; like the Koenigsegg Gemera

I'd love to see a company build a simple rwd sports car that is as minimalist as possible... with the idea being to sell all the upgrades/mods after(suspension, wheels, brakes...etc) the main idea being you personalize it after. Sure, have some packages with the stuff done, but the main volume of them should be the base, with heavy encouragement of aftermarket mods.

I always said retrofuturism is the next level of design and I Was mocked for it. This is proof. I know I want to take used cars and resdesign them with these new looks, interiors, and even power plants like hydrogen for family cars.

This is one of the best looking new cars I’ve seen in so long. I’m personally not that into the curved, alien tech look of the modern supercars or even the faceted, “stealth fighter” look of Lamborghinis of the last 25 years. For all the talk of DeLoreans, there’s something about the face of this car that puts me in the mind of a Ferrari 308 of Magnum, P.I. vintage. I love this thing.

The styling is AWESOME! I REALLY hope they dont screw it up and change the styling or put a weak powertrain in it. They can always offer with a couple powertrain options. But a turbo6 would be great to keep the weight down with high output and good handling. I would+will buy one if they get it right

In my opinion we need more cars Like n vision 74 i love that thing so mutch háve that old school wibe perfect

I would buy this in a heartbeat. Been looking for a late 80’s / anime / cyberpunk styled car and this checks all the boxes for me. Now Hyundai needs to team up with CDPR and do a trim package and they’d sell that like crazy. This would be the first Hyundai I’d buy. Oh and make sure a 6’2 guy can fit in it. ❤

It also resembles another very famous car... A childhood car that everyone loves... At least this concept will go past 88mph.

I really dig the Korean car scene. I think they are the ones that are really trying hard. Stinger, Veloster N, Elantra N, and even the Kona N. I have a Genesis Coupe 3.8, lightly modified, and I've had only minor issues, and put 138k on it. Looking to possibly get a Elantra N next, but waiting on the new model with the face-lift. Kudos to Hyundai /Kia.

I’ve loved Hyundai since 2004. The local dealer treated us good and didn’t rip us off. We’ve owned two Elantras. Both were good deals. The only reason we don’t own one now is size and capacity. Which the Palisade has solved. Due to prices, I have to wait a year and a half until my other vehicle is paid off. Then it’ll be time to start shopping.

Man imagine that thing with a inline 6 turbo, manual transmission and being RWD 😍 It can't get any better

Love the redemption story of Hyundai, seeing them going hard on WRC with the i20 and TCR with the Elantra, i30 and Veloster and winning titles while competing with the big dogs really shows how passionate and willing to stay with the enthusiast dreamers they are. Would love to see the N74 with a twin turbo V6

As a child of the 80's, I'm looking at that car and thinking "Oh yeah. I've SO gotta get me one of those !". It's styling is almost like what a designer in the 80's would have come up with if asked what he thought sports cars would look like in 40 years time. It's gloriously retro, but still modern....... I frigging love it. If they keep the styling just as it is, and give it power and handling to match it's looks, I can see it being a huge hit. How I'm seeing it, most youngsters can't afford to buy a new sports car, and pay to insure/maintain it, so why build a car styled to appeal to them? The folks sports car manufacturers should be focusing on are the original 80's car nuts. We've moved up in our careers, we've had to earn enough to raise our families, then suddenly, our income is still the same, but the kids have grown up and moved out, so without the expense of taking care of the sprogs we notice we're sitting on a spot of extra cash....... "Now I think about it, we also don't need to drive a bloody mini van anymore, do we?"........ "And what do you know. Hyundai appear to now do a really cool retro sports coupe that brings back all those memories of a misspent and carefree youth". If Hyundai build this car, THAT's the demographic who'll be buying it, and that's why, with that styling, it'll be a hit ! :D

I would definitely buy, I drive a z31 so I'm stuck in the 80's and I would love if they leaned into it full stop. Digidash and gauges with retro styling interface!

I would absolutely love to see it with an inline-6. With the long hood and boxy body it would fit super well in the engine bay. Realistically, if they took the N models' inline-4 and mounted it longitudinally that would be amazing when paired with the electric motors!

My plan is to make my silver '98 Pontiac Firebird fully electric.. at least dual motor.. smashin around fully electric with the t-tops off.. cant wait.. im definitely lovin this Vision N..my daily driver is currently a 2023 ioniq 5

That retro look though.. I'm not even into cars but damn that nostalgic look is definitely an ice breaker for the current trend~

Theyre probably going to swap the hydrogen system with a 2-3 cyl generator. Using a small diesel would actually be a better move but i do hope we at least get the chassis out. Ill haplyli put whatever motor config i want in it if not satisfied

Depending on how far the battery only range is and the performance you might not need to use the hydrogen fuel cell. Hydrogen stations are popping up but the biggest barrier is the lack of any vehicles beyond the Mirai basically using it in the US. This concept is so amazing it takes the past and brings it to the future with new technology that makes it even more awesome.

A sport focused range-extender hybrid system would be the absolute best!

I want one styled like this with a engine.

Korea really did hit it off with hitting us car enthusiasts with what we always wanted for years now, and in a way that won't get immediately phased out due to being a gasser!

Both Hyundai and Kia have really come a long way in terms of performance and design language. I really love the mean look of the Kia K5. Imagine a hot hatch version of it with the same running lights/front design. That would be sick.

I’ll freaking buy this car I love that style.way cool,your idea for the turbo 6 with/without the EV would be awesome.

Well, the hybrid system you described is the most plausible imo, simply because that's how current Hyundai hybrids work. The engine is linked to the EV pack that's linked to the gearbox. They go EV at low speed or when the gas pedal is released (except if you're in sport mode), and when you ask for power, they use both the EV pack and the engine together to pull harder. Works pretty well, especially from a standstill. The EV's torque compensates for the low rev range lack of juice from the ICE, so the car jumps forward just like an electric one, and when the revs go up, you've got more power than the ICE alone. With a big engine and a competent EV pack, that could be a pretty snappy car. Also, on top.of regen braking, the combustion engine charges the EV battery constantly when you're not accelerating hard, so the next acceleration can always use the EV engine too.

i hope this car goes in production, tbh idc if they only make 500 or if they make 5000 if it happens i can die happy. 😅

I would have never thought that the same company responsible for the S'Coupe would be where they are today. I know they don't care, but I'm kinda proud of them.

I actually reached out to Hyundai to see if if they want to make it reality when i see this concept car for the first time i was sold! would love to have this car as a Electic or hybrid version

Love the retro styling, there are way too many silver egg shaped blobs on the road today.

I feel personally attacked 🤣🤣 I owned a 2006 Tiburon GT for many years and loved it to death!

They finally broke the balance made by bigger car companies, and im all for it!

I think the 74 is absolutely amazing!!! I would love to drive it with a straight six or straight six with electric motor assistance. Some form of an electrical powerplant implemented with an regular motor would do great with it's futuristic appearance. Who knows, if it becomes truly successful we could even see a limited production line with something crazy. I don't have the cash but I'm salivating over this one.

Lol cannot wait to see the production version vs what they showed. I hope that it’s similar but I will not be surprised if it looks significantly different. The cost will also be EXTREMELY interesting to see what they target

It doesn't even need to have crazy performance... even if it only had 250-300hp, if it looks this cool, inside and out, this Hyundai will much loved and wanted.

This is easily the dopest car concept I have ever seen from any company since I been alive (I was born in 98) . Imagine that car with an RB or 2J in it 😮

Looks absolutely mind-blowing. Also a big fan of the Ioniq 5 styling.

We need it but it has to have tuning potential. Make it with what ever but make it compatable for swapping! If we could buy one and swap an LS to it, it would be AWESOME

I would love to ser this produced. I think today's styling had become too algorithmic toward what mass sells or what shape gets the best range /milage.

Its financial success is largely dependent on the power unit in my opinion, but the looks are stunning either way.

5:17 No wonder it looks so damn good. They completely killed it with all the complex gimmickery! Just put a big, responsive N/A engine in it (maybe the V6 you mentioned is it? Idk anything about Hyundais) or a turbocharged 4 popper and be done with it. I've been saying for over a decade now why they don't just "remaster" or remake old amazing cars (like a 2nd gen CRX Si) with the new improvements that we've made over the years (not talking about the gimmicks like touch controls and massive displays). I mean just imagine a CRX Si with a modern K series engine from the factory, power steering, LED/HID projectors, (and LED bulbs all around and inside), a key fob with the buttons to lock/unlock it and set the alarm (I have this on mine but had to do a lot of work and it's aftermarket), keeping the interior subtle but just make it a much nicer place with better materials, a nice soft touch dash and A/C vents like in the new civics, power windows, an even better suspension, a much more rigid body and the performance, increased ride quality, and much reduced NVH that it brings (alongside the corrosion resistance that modern zinc plated metal used now). I haven't even mentioned clear coated paint instead of single stage. The list goes on and on. Doesn't have to be a CRX, that's just my example cuz it's my favorite car and I'd buy one, but just insert your fave' old 80's or 90's car there in its place and imagine it. Would be nice if they made them slightly different so as to not detract from the original masterpiece, while also not veering off too far to where it's just not a successor anymore and it's just something completely different. The Honda CR-Z is a great example of a car where you can see the similarities to the CRX but they veered waaay too far and it was something completely different. It was like a CRX and a Prius had a baby.

I really feel like if this happens, it's gonna be an EV. Especially with cars like the supposed future STI possibly being an EV, I feel like it's the direction these higher performance sports cars are going towards in the future. Beautiful looking car though! Cyberpunk style has my attention!

I could see them making a few just because it did make a big wave. However it definitely would be a very limited production like you said, and the prices would be wild for one I imagine.

I own a Veloster Turbo, most fun car I’ve ever driven, when you really gas it and let the DCT do it’s thing it’s magical

I am not a Hyundai fan but man I like the styling of this. I also like the Ioniq 5 style-wise. It would be a cool car to engine swap and wide body.

As a lifelong Toyota family we all either work for or own Hyundais now lol. That’s a company not afraid to take big chances. Wish other companies were like this. That’s what made Toyota great in the 90s-00s. Also they are a very hands on company. They send all their dealers to their Korean race track to hoon it up.

This car straight up reminds me of the old Audi Quattro and the Quattro concept from the early 2010’s. And I’m here for it. I hope they make it

If they came out with that car, looking like that, even with the 4 cylinder turbo, I’d buy one for sure. I love the styling. I’m looking at 1 of 4 cars for my next toy, a McLaren 570, Merc AMG GT S, R8 or an Ariel Atom 4, but I’d add this to the list as a candidate just because it’s different and would be cool to have. Now If it had 600+ HP out of it, even better!!!

If this car is brought into production, I’ll buy it for sure. I’m a student now, but I’ll have a well paying engineering job in just a few years

Video opens with a Nissan ad throwing shade on the cybertruck. 1:29 video uses a Hyundai to also throw shade on the cybertruck. Now that's what we call as synergy!

I'm really excited for the 74. Like you said though, the concern is going to be the power plant. I wonder what price point it would go at as well. The Ioniq 6 N concept is the only electric car that's been an immediate yes for me as far as styling. Hyundai is doing a lot of cool stuff right now.

I like the hybrid idea. If you're doing some kind of E-boost a lighter smaller engine could be an advantage. Give it an efficient and performance mode. Don't make it a plugin because of parasitic weight. Lightness.

1:43 bro dont diss the tiburon! the tiburon is still so rad after 15-16 years I will drive these till they break

Honestly this would be the only new car I would ever buy , I love cars from the 80s and 90s the rawness and the look is what cars are meant to be , there is literally no new car worth buying in my own opinion but this thing is fuxking gorgeous. EDIT: didnt know it was electric 😂😢

More cars need to have retro designs I’d love to see a car built with 50s and 60s styling with the fins and stuff

I bought a 2015 Genesis when they first came out. Loved that car inside and out. Still love the design

Honestly, I love Hyundai. They're on such a dope upward climb thanks to their business moves, and I can only hope more and more that they continue in this direction. I'm curious why other mfrs haven't tackled designs like this yet as though... What's the reason? Too expensive to build and manufacture compared to how niche it might be? Cuz as beautiful as it is I can still see how it might not exactly turn a profit, unless they make the price ridiculous which at that point almost no one will buy it... Either way, when I see things like the Vision 74, I just picture myself some day buying a used one from someone and that alone makes me happy lol.

I'm in such a weird spot. I love my 90s JDM cars and that old school styling but this future cyberpunk design also looks so sporty and cool. The in-between is just not there for me and it has to be either antique or futuristic. One day I want to have both kinds of cars in my garage so I can see the decades of differences side by side.

80s sport compact cars are legit classics an desirable as could be now

What i think is weird is Kia has got a couple of very cool looking vehicles. The new ev is pretty slick and their stinger keeps getting better imo. Haven't driven either but I see them at the lot (I deliver parts) and they're some of the best looking vehicles of the dealers I visit
