The new Nexo sports Hyundai's 'Art of Steel’ design language
Visually, the all-new Nexo is largely identical to the Initium concept, sporting a range of futuristic, boxy design characteristics. The fascia of the SUV gets many squarish styling elements, such as the upper clusters, air dam, and block-pattern lamps on the bumper. The upper clusters house slit-like lamps and are separated by a contrasting black panel with four block-pattern lights. The bonnet of the new Nexo sports two prominent lines running the entire length, while the front bumper has D-shaped openings on either end. Hyundai has stated that it has employed a three-coat painting process for the vehicle, resulting in an effect where the body color shifts depending on the angle of the light.

The rear end of the SUV gets block-pattern tail lamps
In profile, the SUV has an unconventional silhouette, with its roofline running flat till the C-Pillar and then coming to a rather abrupt slope. The SUV uses heavy cladding around the wheel arches and towards the lower end of the profile, and has a few horizontal creases. Another interesting design detail is the prominent lines on both ends of the C-pillar that extend towards the lower end of the SUV. The rear end of the SUV gets block-pattern tail lamps that are similar to the units on the Initium concept.
