- Swappable batteries
- Flat Floor
- 3W and 4W concepts
Hyundai in collaboration with TVS Motor has taken off wraps from their micromobility concepts at the recently held Auto Expo 2025. Both the 3W and 4W versions offer unique advancements compared to the current microcar and three-wheelers being sold currently.
About the Hyundai-TVS Micromobility Concept
The two concepts- in three-wheeled and four-wheeled avatars aim to address the issue of last mile transportation in India. Being fully electric vehicles, they get a flat floor while the swappable batteries are housed under the driver seat. Interestingly, Hyundai claims that the body can be raised if required to drive through flooded roads in case of emergency. Another unique feature is a rear hatch type design which fully opens up and gives uninterrupted access for wheelchair users which can then be secured after folding up the seats.
Hyundai has also given it a diagonally sloping windshield and three-point seatbelts to increase crash safety. On the inside, there is a panel behind the driver’s seat which can be used to mount various accessories like fans, cupholders and storage spaces for passenger convenience.
At the front however, while the 3W gets a conventional handlebar with a phone mount, the 4W gets a proper steering wheel and even a second seat at the front. Both concepts get a slim digital instrument cluster panel with inbuilt navigation.
These have been designed by Hyundai in collaboration with TVS and while launch seems far away, they will be produced by the latter given it’s experience in the three-wheeler space. Police, Ambulance and Public Transport versions of the same are being evaluated
