Luc Donckerwolke has announced that he will be stepping down as Hyundai Motor Group's chief designer, effective today (April 29). He has worked with Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis and has worked on cars like the G80, G90, GV80, Palisade, and Kona.
According to reports, Hyundai will not name a new design chief for the whole group, as the design for the Hyundai and Genesis brands will continue to be led by Sang Yup Lee. Karim Habib, on the other hand, who joined the Korean company last year, will still lead the Kia brand. This is an interesting move, maybe it means that the 3 brands are going to work more separately from each other as far as design goes.
