Recall that the premium brand belongs to Hyundai and is represented on the Russian market by three sedans. But in the near future in the brand’s line-up there should appear new spectacular crossovers of the 2020 model year and everyone is interested in when the new items can be purchased at car dealerships in Russia.
For the first time, the concept of the GV80 model was introduced back in 2018. At the moment, the car passes the stage of road tests and periodically appears in the camera lenses, hiding behind camouflage film.

At the moment, the company has focused on the technical part of future electric SUVs, so the models that are being tested are almost no different from their counterparts on the internal combustion engine and they are not even hidden with camouflage film. At the same time, it is obvious that cars are absolutely environmentally friendly, because they do not have exhaust pipes.
Since the tests of new products are held in Scandinavia, where the average temperature is -10ºС, it can be assumed that the cars will be fully prepared for the harsh conditions of the Russian winters, which promises them special popularity in the domestic market, because it is no secret that many electric cars are bad enough survive operation in conditions of subzero temperatures.
BMW iNEXT
Another electrocross of 2020 from BMW will be the iNEXT model, which so far has been shown only in teaser video format.

The model, which was shown in New York, interested experts and guests of the auto show with such elements as:
- unusual placement of the spare wheel;
- spectacular design of the front and head optics;
- R20 wheels
- powerful V6 under the hood.
The presented concept is made in the author’s design and you can understand how a production car will look like by visually discarding all that is unnecessary.

It is possible that there will be other changes that the manufacturer will talk about closer to the premiere of the new product.
The closest competitor to the model will be the Hyundai HDC-2 Grandmaster.

- 350-400 km of movement without recharging.
UAZ Patriot (3170)

The network has regular photos of the possible design of a domestic SUV in 2020, which are very reminiscent of the prototype Mercedes SUV.
If the new reincarnation of the Patriot is destined to materialize. Then we will see a really big car with a bright futuristic design, a spectacular body kit, an impressive ground clearance and a top speed of 190 km / h.
