About the 10th generation Sonata design behind the design of the award-winning pragmatism

[ Chexun Wang reported ] of the 10th generation of Beijing Hyundai Sonata, may be listed between April and May 2020. One highlight of the car, is full of innovative design mdash; mdash; has won the iF Design Award in Germany. Here to introduce you to design the car.

ldquo; aesthetics rdquo; and ldquo; practical rdquo; the integration of the design world has always been a problem, automotive design as well.

In modern automotive design, good work put in the beginning of the design of the vehicle ldquo; aesthetics rdquo; and ldquo; practical rdquo; side by side as the focus. As the first based on the new i-GMP platform to build models, the tenth generation who not only has a new Sonata platform brings sporty GT coupe and long engine compartment of both visual sense, also added to every design practical elements, relentless quest production car body ldquo; US rdquo; and ldquo; with rdquo; optimal balance between.

so that each line presence that is significant

ldquo; form follows function rdquo; in fact, the theory of the 19th century modernist design Louis division middot; Sullivan proposed, probably means ldquo; practical basis, to design a useful element rdquo ;.

As the first built by the i-GMP vehicle platform, because of the low center of gravity design allows the body to become more visually ldquo; rdquo ;, together with the low-lying so that the vehicle to increase the length of the hood after the engine design shift, the tenth generation Sonata first meet today’s consumer ldquo; young, sports rdquo; requirements, have a GT sports car déjà vu.

In addition to creating a visual effect, the lower body can make the vehicle becomes more stable in motion, after the shift of the engine can also serve to optimize the vehicle body weight the role of the former in the drive to make high-speedWhen cornering reduce Tuitou possible.

In addition, under the effect of the tenth generation Sonata i-GMP platform, length and width of the vehicle body can be improved, respectively, 4955 and 1860 mm wheelbase extended to 2,890 mm. Apart from changes in the data, also will change driving space, leg room front / rear has also become one of the best at the same level.

and the tenth generation Sonata in the pursuit of high color values, while full consideration of the practicability. Aerofin taillight design was prominent in the upper half of the processing upturned group of lamps, thus forming a natural tail. The top of the luggage compartment, in the left and right sides of each designer and installation of six, a total of 12 different angle of the spoiler fin. These two seemingly just to create a sporty design, in fact, played a role in improving the air flow field, eliminating unnecessary eddy currents.

Then there is the practical design of the car body are those details. First, the flat surface of the hood you’ll find some strong three-dimensional ldquo; rdquo ;, these folds ldquo; creases rdquo; in addition to enhance the three-dimensional body of another identity, that is ldquo; spoiler gatekeepers rdquo ;. As the position of the body in contact with the first wind, these ldquo; folds rdquo; initial drainage can wind, the wind will have been guided to the rear irregular, other aerodynamic components referred handling. And with these ldquo; folds rdquo; means there are a lot of work, such as the front spoiler cooling holes at the eyebrow, the three cooling holes spoiler effect, good-looking, a spoiler, a tire heat, this is the only appear in the performance of the car body design even appeared in a B-class sedan above, which is also seen from the side of the tenth generation Sonata own power reserve is very deep.

In the tenth generation Sonata collaboration these designs and components, the optimum drag coefficient down to the same level position, speed and fuel economy of the vehicle plays a greatly improved role.

so that each structure can make the best use

Appearance is a designer in the design of the car to create a vehicle ldquo; face rdquo ;, and car ldquo; lining rdquo; engineers to complete the return, but not the ordinary people of Automotive Engineers imagine ldquo; no feelings of Polytechnic male rdquo ;, not only dealing with the manufacture of machinery and the United States. The tenth generation Sonata engineer described the structure of the car on the integration of practical and beautiful.

Many people feel that is shaped like the tenth generation Sonata left / right fender poles of a shark, however ldquo; shark rdquo; body bears many design engineers, after the restructuring, the when a pedestrian and the left / right fender contact occurs, the steel structure according to engineer will expect the track deformation, thus protecting pedestrians.

It’s like Breuer chair, as though from outright advocates of hand function, but extreme to ldquo; emphasis on structure (Breuer’s design theory) rdquo; after work but showing a very beautiful shape.

In addition to changing the design of practical, but also to optimize the navigation experience play a role. For example, right when most people do not tilt steering body will increase tire grip, making the car easy to turn. Tenth generation Sonata and adjusting the scale and structure of the rear bumper and the rear axle to optimize the car body at the time of the tilt steering, allow the car to get a better angle of tilt steering, to obtain stronger with soil fertility.

There is also ldquo; low lying rdquo; Effect on body manipulation, low will lead engineers to design chassis of the vehicle suspension with shorter, less larger suspension will mix, lower-profile tires, together with many other factors, such that the tenth generation Sonata rear rolling down the center, against the background ldquo; low lying rdquo; visual effects while, at the bend optimizes Road collaboration when front and rear wheels to improve handling experience and safety factor of the vehicle.

ldquo; aesthetics rdquo; and ldquo; Applicability rdquo; seemingly mutually contradictory relationship, but needs twoIn one things but always indispensable, after successful integration will become a classic masterpiece. Like a great artist William middot; Morris said: ldquo; decoration should not be construed as an additional element, but rather an inherent definition of object attributes, to show their functions and characteristics of the user thing. rdquo; Hyundai is like deep pass their way, let aesthetics and practicality on mutual integration early in the design, I believe that the introduction of this concept tenth generation Sonata will meet the majority of consumer tastes, with strength in the future market won applause.
