LOL!

It doesn't look very Disney to me, but if it actually has what's in the description, it would be pretty cool!

The exclusive Hyundai Ioniq 5 Disney100 Platinum Concept car at the New York Car Show featured Gravity Gold Matte exterior color, Disney-inspired wheels, Disney100 Platinum Edition exterior badging, Disney100 logo embossed on front seat headrests and center console, Disney100 logo on the floormats, lamp screens with Disney sparkle animations across headlights and taillights, moon roof etching details with a touch of pixie dust, Disney-themed intro on the interior screen upon turning the car on which features iconic Disney music, the Disney100 logo and pixie dust; and interior synchronized light show featuring changing light modes. Features on the actual production model may vary, the company said in a statement.

Maybe I'll just play Disney music in my Tesla and call it a draw, though.

Yeah, I can get some Disney seat covers and mats and play Disney music in the car I have. As limited as the supply of these will be, they will be way overpriced for what you get.

I don't see it. Certainly not on the outside, and on the inside all that stuff seems a little meh. I would have expected something like this:

Interesting given the current quality issues Hyundai/KIA are having with both their gasoline and electric cars. A big of a risk on Disney's part being associated with a product with issues.
In Hyundai's defense, a part of their problem is dealers that don't care about customer service. My son had a Hyundai Kona electric that was subject to a battery recall. The dealer just didn't seem prepared to do the recall repairs. Car sat for over a month in the dealer's service department.....while my son drove a Hyundai provided loaner car........ My son finally contacted Hyundai directly and they immediately offered to buy it back at full price under the lemon law. That process took another two months because the DEALER would not let the Hyundai Lemon Law arbitrator on their lot to inspect the car and process the buy back. Hyundai bought the car back finally, and laid out over $10,000 for the rental car until the issue was settled.

Last time we flew from SeaTac to Orange County that plane was right next our gate. We just got the Eskimo plane. The Las Vegas flight got the Disney plane. I had to verify with the gate agent that we were on the correct plane. It didn't make sense to me to put the Vegas crowd on the Disney plane.

Aircraft movements are an art form to some degree. There's generally a lot more to scheduling aircraft than they'd just like to get one airplane to frequent a particular airport. Same goes with pilot and flight attendant scheduling.

That's the other thing - there's always this fiction that air crews work with each other regularly. I've heard form airline pilots and employees that the get mixed and matched all the time. Pilots and co-pilots may never have met each other before being assigned to a specific flight.

I'd love to have a "Disney themed" car

Of course, I need a work truck too.
