Hyundai IONIQ 5, The First Electric Car Produced in Indonesia, Redefines Indonesia’s Future Mobility

Radarcirebon.com, JAKARTA - PT Hyundai Motors Indonesia introduced IONIQ 5, the newest mid-size electric car from Hyundai, at the 2022 Indonesia International Motor Show (IIMS), which will be held from 31 March to 10 April 2022. The presence of the IONIQ 5 is a breakthrough and historical leap in the country\'s automotive industry for being the first Battery Electric Vehicle
(BEV) to be mass-produced at the Hyundai Motor manufacturing plant in Cikarang, West Java, Indonesia. The IONIQ 5 offers a futuristic design equipped with environmentally friendly
materials and the first electric car built on the Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), a platform with many advantages designed by the Hyundai Motor Group specifically for the BEV
model.

 

SungJong Ha, President Director of PT Hyundai Motors Indonesia, said, \"We are delighted
because today we have embarked on a new pride as part of the evolution of the Indonesian automotive industry. Through IONIQ 5, Hyundai proves its commitment to build future mobility, therefore Indonesia can become one of the world\'s most important players. The IONIQ 5 has all the advantages Indonesians have always wanted, such as timeless designs and cutting-edge
technology, to maximum comfort. This is the most suitable electric car and the pride of the Indonesian people.\"

 

Ha further added, \"The IONIQ 5 offers a sustainable lifestyle and unlimited experiences. This
electric car carries elements that elevate the electric vehicle ecosystem in Indonesia to a higher
level, one of which is through the presence of E-GMP, which makes customers get the best
comfort and technology support that makes their adventures more valuable and meaningful.”

 

E-GMP, Pioneer of Future EV Development

 

Designed exclusively for BEVs, E-GMP provides various benefits including increased
development flexibility, powerful driving performance, increased driving range, strengthened
safety features, and more interior space for occupants and luggage.
E-GMP reduces complexity through modularization and standardization, allowing rapid and
flexible development of products that can be used across most vehicle segments, such as sedans,
SUVs, and others. Moreover, flexible development can satisfy various customer needs for vehicle
performance.

This platform is engineered to offer improved cornering performance and driving stability at high
speed. This is due to optimal weight distribution between front and rear, a design that enables a
low center of gravity thanks to its low-mounted battery pack, and the adoption of electric motors
located in the space previously occupied by an engine. The platform secures battery safety
through a battery support structure made of ultra-high-strength steel. Also, the hot-stamped
steel components surround this structure for additional rigidity. Collision energy can be absorbed
efficiently thanks to energy-absorbent sections of the body and chassis, effective energy load
paths, and a central section of the battery pack tightly bound to the vehicle body.
Moreover, by strengthening the structure of the load support section, located in front of the
dashboard, engineers have been able to minimize collision energy to the power electric system
and battery. E-GMP maximizes interior space through its long wheelbase, short front and rear
overhangs, and slim cockpit module. With the battery pack mounted beneath the floor, the EGMP creates a flat floor for the cabin. This provides more legroom for passengers while enabling various arrangements for the front and rear seats.
