Reportedly, the production version will not be much different from the Hyundai Seven Concept. Gotcha Cars also made a rendering as a guide to imagine how the original Ioniq 7 would look like.
The front looks like a blend of several Hyundai models. There is a touch of Palisade to the design of the headlights and Staria to the LEDs that extend from end to end under the logo.
For the door, Seven Concept describes the Ioniq 7 with a suicide door model. So, other people can see into the cabin better. However, the production version is believed to use the traditional door model.

As for platforms, such as the Ioniq 5, it is believed that the Ioniq 7 will also rely on the Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) and have an 800 volt architecture.

The Ioniq 7 production car will reportedly use a 100 kilowatt-hour battery with an estimated range of around 300 miles (483 kilometers).
An electric motor will drive each shaft. In total, the combined output is estimated at 308 horsepower (230 kilowatts).
