Key Ideas
  • Hyundai's N Vision 74 retro-styled hydrogen-powered concept car is set for production, with a road-ready trial version coming this year and sales planned for mid-2026.
  • The production run is expected to include 200 units over two years, costing around 500 million won and offering 600kW of power with a sub-three-second 0-100km/h sprint.
  • The hydrogen supercar utilizes a fuel cell to convert hydrogen into electricity, producing only water emissions, while featuring a throwback design to the 1974 Hyundai Pony Coupe concept.
Hyundai's N Vision 74 concept, a hydrogen-powered supercar with a retro design, is transitioning from concept to production. According to Korean newspaper Hankyung, a road-ready trial version will be manufactured later this year, paving the way for public sales by mid-2026. Contrary to earlier reports of a limited production of 100 units, Hyundai now aims to produce 200 of these unique supercars over a two-year period starting in 2026. With an estimated price tag of 500 million won (approximately A$550,000), the N Vision 74 will compete with luxury sports cars like Ferrari and Porsche. What sets this supercar apart is its hydrogen-based powertrain that can generate up to 600kW, offering a thrilling acceleration of under three seconds in the 0-100km/h sprint. By converting hydrogen into electricity through a fuel cell, the N Vision 74 maintains eco-friendliness, emitting only water. The design of the car pays homage to Hyundai's 1974 Pony Coupe concept, fusing retro aesthetics with futuristic technology. The ambitious project signals Hyundai's foray into the supercar realm and the hydrogen-powered vehicle market, showcasing innovation and performance in a single package.
