Hyundai put joysticks instead of a steering wheel in its new electric concept car, which looks like a mashup between a Porsche and a Tesla

Hyundai has a new concept car out, which the automaker is calling the Prophecy.
Concept cars often show an exaggerated version of where an automaker wants to go in the future, hence this one's name it's a preview of Hyundai EVs to come.
With sweeping lines and smooth curves, the Prophecy's design feels almost like a mashup of the Tesla Model 3 and Porsche 911.
On the inside, the car is built more for relaxing than driving. The driver is meant to lean back and control the car using a pair of joysticks, while an autonomous driving system does the rest.

Hyundai has a new electric concept car called the Prophecy, which, as its name suggests, offers a sneak peek at what the brand's future EVs may look like.

If the car is anything to go by, the future looks pretty darn good.

Hyundai debuted the concept on Tuesday, showing it off with a video presentation after the Geneva International Motor Show was canceled amid coronavirus concerns . It's electric and autonomous, but like most concept cars, it's just an exaggerated idea of what the future will look like not a solidified production model.

But with its looks echoing part Tesla Model 3 and part Porsche 911, the Prophecy sports a sleek, fastback shape, pixelated headlights, and a clear-acrylic spoiler out back.Hyundai might have gone a bit far with the language in its press release describing the Prophecy as "sensuous," "voluptuous," and fostering "an emotional connection between humans and automobiles" but the Prophecy is, at least, stunning.

The car's interior may prove a bit more controversial than the exterior, however, since Hyundai has done away with a steering wheel in favor of a pair of joysticks. Hyundai said in using the joysticks, the driver can "control the vehicle from a position of comfort," while autonomous technology pilots the car.
