- The Hyundai N Vision 74 concept will become a low-volume production car sometime in 2026, per a report by Korea's ETNews.
- The Korean news outlet claims Hyundai has confirmed plans to build 100 copies of the N Vision 74, with 70 going to customers and the rest reserved for racing.
- The production N Vision 74 is said to make 800 horsepower combined from its rear-drive hybrid powertrain, which pairs a hydrogen fuel-cell with electric motors.
It appears our dreams are closer to coming true. That's if the recent news out of Korea turns out to be accurate, which is that Hyundai has confirmed plans to build and sell versions of the universally loved N Vision 74 concept.
The report, published yesterday by ETNews, claims the company will build a limited number of the sports-car concept that was inspired by the 1974 Hyundai Pony Coupe. Word has it that Hyundai will make 100 total copies, however, only 70 of those will be sold to public customers. The other 30 are said to be reserved for racing. Production is expected to start sometime in the first half of 2026.
Among the other interesting information detailed in the report is that the production version of the N Vision 74 will have 800 horsepower combined. That's 120 ponies more than the rolling test lab that we had the privilege of driving on track. That prototype paired a hydrogen fuel-cell with two electric motors, with each 335-hp unit powering a rear wheel.
If Hyundai does, in fact, build the N Vision 74, it will be bittersweet. That's because not only will it be next to impossible for most enthusiasts to get their hands on one, but they also most likely won't be able to afford it. Hyundai is said to view it in supercar terms, and its complex high-performance powertrain reflects that—so too will its price tag.
Regardless, we can all agree that a world with 100 ultra-expensive N Vision 74s roaming around—be it on public roads or closed racetracks—is better than a world with next to none.
