Hyundai ix25 Exterior

The new Hyundai ix25 is based on the Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 by Hyundai. It looks a part of the family of other SUVs from Hyundai. The Tucson or the Santa Fe have a resemblance to the ix25 . A large chrome front grille is first to catch the eye and has a neatly integrated set of headlamps. LEDs with  projector lamps do the duty here. The length of this new SUV is 4270mm, while its width is 1780mm with a height of 1622mm. The side profile is more like an SUV than a crossover, which is the case with the Santa Fe and Tucson.

From the rear, it has tail lamps similar to the Santa Fe. The license plate is located on the rear bumper rather than the centre. This makes it look taller. The tail lamps are sleek, like all the new Fluidic 2.0 designed vehicles. They are the wrap around type.
