Hyundai Porter to undergo major redesign for 2027

Hyundai is preparing a significant overhaul of its Porter commercial vehicle, known as the H-100 in certain markets, for a 2027 release. After 22 years of the current generation, the fifth-generation model will move away from the traditional cab-over design in favor of a more elongated front end.

Spy shots from high-altitude testing in Europe reveal a prototype with a more squared-off aesthetic, featuring rectangular headlights, a more inclined windshield, and vertical windows. This new configuration shifts the front axle forward, allowing the cabin to be positioned slightly further back. This design change aims to improve safety by providing a better impact absorption structure to meet European standards, while maintaining the existing cargo capacity.

The upcoming model is expected to include electric powertrain options and may feature four-wheel drive capabilities.
