    I think it's the lovechild of a Lancia Delta Integrale and the DeLorean! :)

    So the Lancia Delta, DeLorean DMC 12, and the IONIQ 5 do share some design DNA. Giorgetto Giugiaro designed the original Hyundai Pony Coupe which was the inspiration for the IONIQ 5 design. Giugiaro went on to design the Lancia Delta as well as the iconic DeLorean DMC 12.

    Hyundai has a new page up now paying tribute to the Hyundai Pony Concept, with some quotes from Giugiaro himself.

    Loved the Delorean, see attached photo. Could not believe I saw one in Sudbury. Actually put deposit on Ioniq 5 based on 80's looks
