Hyundai unveils official images and details of new H350 cargo van, which was unveiled at the Hannover Motor Show

This is the Hyundai H350 panel van, which was previewed earlier in the month and has now been fully unveiled to the public. At the moment Hyundai aren't confirming whether or not it will be coming to the UK.

The H350 the South Korean manufacturer’s first LCV developed specifically for Europe and is based on a flexible platform designed to support three body styles: cargo van, minibus and flatbed truck. It sits alongside Hyundai's smaller iLoad van and will take the fight directly to the Ford Transit and Mercedes Sprinter.

As you can see, the exterior styling borrows from Hyundai’s design language, featuring a hexagonal grille that flows seamlessly into wraparound headlights. There are LED daytime running lights as well, plus sculpted flanks designed to segment the van’s high-rising side panels.

Inside, the three-seat layout is paired to a multifunction, four-spoke steering wheel and large centre console that again serves to emphasise the car-like pretensions.

It’s not about style over substance though, with Hyundai claiming excellent cabin and cargo storage – the H350 has a payload of up to 1.4 tonnes and towing capacity of 2.5 tonnes.
