Initium was unveiled at the Clearly Committed: Upright Belief event held at Hyundai Motorstudio Goyang on October 31, 2024. In November, it was unveiled for the first time in North America at the 2024 LA Auto Show. Initium means beginning/first in Latin and carries the meaning of a pioneer in opening a hydrogen society. Hyundai reflects the company's new design language, Art of Steel, and emphasizes the natural elasticity of steel, the strength and beauty of the material, and the pure yet strong nature of hydrogen, he explained. A lamp design that embodies the symbol of Hyundai Motor Group's hydrogen value chain business brand, HTWO, was applied.
