[Hyundai](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hyundai-nine) unveils a look at its new [NINE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/917-tribute-shifter) concept sedan that boasts a [futuristic design language](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meta-turismo) and sleek aesthetic. It is true to the design language of the South Korean brand and is inspired by its own Grandeut concept that stemmed back in the 80s.

The car is powered by an electric drivetrain and also has an aerodynamic design that focuses on reducing the drag coefficient in order to extend its overall range. The NINE has headlights that wrap around the car along with taillights that emphasize its futuristic look of it. Its aerodynamic appeal can be seen in the way that it has no visible hinges on the exterior of the design including the side mirrors that opt for pop-out cameras instead.
