Hyundai’s range of new models — which includes the 2023 Hyundai Creta subcompact SUV, the 2023 Hyundai Tucson compact SUV, the 2023 Hyundai Staria van, and the recently launched 2023 Hyundai Stargazer MPV — can be experienced by visitors at the Night of Lights event.

They shall also be entitled to a Hyundai golf umbrella at the end of their ride. Moreover, for those who have been wanting to own a Hyundai, a limited edition Camelbak Water Bottle awaits upon placing a reservation on-site.

Situated towards the exit, Hyundai Motor Philippines has set up a customer lounge with a display area and redemption booth. Inside, the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 can be found supplying electricity to the brand’s signature Café through its Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function. All goers will have the chance to not just see and learn more about this multi-awarded all-electric vehicle, but also receive a free freshly brewed beverage straight from it.

The 2023 Hyundai Ioniq’s V2L allows users to store and convert energy to power various equipment, such as coffee machines, microwaves, electric bikes, and other devices. Designed to enhance the owners' convenience on and off the road, the vehicle can act as a 3.6kW power source for camping, emergencies, or relief efforts.

The Ioniq 5 is designed with an eco-friendly solar roof that may collect energy and transmit it to the vehicle's battery to prevent battery discharge when driving long distances.

Inside, the Hyundai Ioniq 5's interior is designed in a “Living Space” style, with the adjustable center console known as the Universal Island serving as its focal point. It is designed to provide more flexible space inside. Its exceptionally long wheelbase gives passengers more legroom for a more comfortable ride. Furthermore, the Ioniq 5 has electronically adjustable front seats whose thickness was reduced by 30% to provide additional space for the passengers in the second row.

The car’s seats, headliner, door trim, floor, and armrest were all made from eco-friendly materials such as recycled PET bottles, bio PET yarns, and wool yarns, eco-processed leather, and bio paint with plant extracts to demonstrate Hyundai's commitment to promoting sustainable development. The cabin also has a unique ceiling that is supported by only a single, enormous glass panel.

If more cargo space is needed, the second-row seats can be slid forward and folded. The Ioniq 5's standard 531-liter cargo space may be increased to approximately 1,600 liters if the seats are fully folded. The Ioniq 5 also has a front trunk with a maximum load capacity of 57 liters.

A 12-inch touchscreen infotainment display and a 12-inch digital gauge cluster are both included in the Ioniq 5's large, customizable dual cockpit. The interior ambiance can be set to be Soft, Delicate, or Exuberant using the Jong-e Graphic User Interface (GUI) of the Ioniq 5's infotainment system.

The Ioniq 5 also has a premium Bose sound system with eight speakers and a subwoofer for upgraded music streaming inside. The Augmented Reality Head-up Display (AR HUD), another cutting-edge interior feature, turns the windshield into a screen to show essential vehicle information, navigational information, and even the vehicle's surroundings.

Meanwhile, the 2023 Hyundai Stargazer, introduced in the early part of November, is a seven-seater MPV that is futuristic in every angle, from its exterior styling all the way to its cutting-edge driver assistance system.

With the 2023 Hyundai Stargazer, Hyundai Motor Philippines, Inc. is ushering in a new era in the local MPV market with futuristic styling, advanced driver assistance systems, and superior spaciousness and comfort. The Stargazer’s styling is easily its most obvious highlight. Influenced by Hyundai's “pioneering spirit,” a horizontal LED strip that runs across the fascia, a single-curved silhouette, and H-signature taillamp complete the Stargazer's visual identity.

A 4.2-inch TFT-LCD instrument cluster featuring a digital tachometer, speedometer, and fuel indicator are included with the 2022 Hyundai Stargazer. Additionally, the car has an eight-inch touchscreen display with wireless phone projection for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Six chargers, including a wireless power charger, are present, along with two device holders.

The Stargazer also comes standard with Hyundai SmartSense, the brand's driver assistance system that ensures passenger and pedestrian safety. Hyundai SmartSense includes Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) and Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) — among many others.

Aside from a generous amount for passenger room, the 2022 Hyundai Stargazer offers loads of space for various objects — a total of 31 storage spaces are integrated into the dashboard, center console, seats, and door trims. These include the ledge under the front air vents, a movable cup holder guide for different beverage container sizes, the front row seat back table and pockets, and the luggage board that can be opened to better organize trunk items.

The 2022 Hyundai Stargazer is powered by a 1.5-liter Smartstream engine mated to Intelligent Variable Transmission (iVT). The engine, Hyundai’s Smartstream unit, is the carmaker’s next-generation powertrain line created for improved airflow, effective combustion, and lower emissions that help manage fuel consumption. It delivers 115ps of power and 144 Nm of torque, while the iVT is one of Hyundai's flagship proprietary technologies and is designed to shift gears more quickly and smoothly while achieving better fuel efficiency.

“This is our first Christmas as Hyundai Motor Philippines and we want to celebrate it with our Filipino customers by putting smiles on their faces and bringing them quality time, which is to us the most precious commodity. After all, we are constantly finding ways to live up to our vision of ‘Progress for Humanity’.

"This means redefining mobility and doing the right thing for humanity whether they be through breakthrough innovations or meaningful partnerships,” said HMPH President Dongwook Lee.

“We are excited to join this initiative of SM. The MOA Concert Grounds has been turned into the happiest place in the Philippines and we can’t wait for everyone to come by there and have a magical evening with us and our cars”.
