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.

Hey thanks for this! Very interesting and enlightening!
 
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
