These mean the four dots on the steering wheel of the Hyundai IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 6

Four cubes have meaning

Models like the Hyundai IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 6 have a steering wheel that lacks a Hyundai logo. In fact, Hyundai uses four square, illuminated cubes. Those four cubes have meaning, according to research conducted by AutoRAI.nl.

Morse code

Indeed, in Morse code, you write the letter H in four short blocks. So there is an H of Hyundai, but in Morse code. Hyundai also believes that a logo does not need to be on a steering wheel, because if you have bought a Hyundai, when you drive the car you will know it is a Hyundai. By applying the H in Morse Code, a letter “H” still appears in a playful way.

Morse code: H

Hyundai gives cubes a function

Hyundai also gives the illuminated cubes a function. They give an indication of charging status, change color when you switch driving modes and also warn in dangerous situations.

Steering wheel for more Hyundai models

Hyundai is expected to use the Morse code steering wheel in several future models. So it doesn’t stop with the IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 6.
