Hyundai’s 350bhp Sports Coupe Concept HND-9 to be revealed at South Korea’s Seoul Motor Show
Hyundai today unveiled images of its smashing 365bhp HND-9 Sports Coupe concept, which it will reveal to the world just weeks from today.It is the ninth concept model developed by Hyundai’s Research and Development Centre in Namyang, South Korea, and features sophisticated details with its premium looks.
As the fastest-growing car manufacturer in the world, Hyundai has huge ambitions for growth in the lucrative sports car market.
And the pictures prove Hyundai’s designers are going for a cross between what looks like an Aston Martin and a Mercedes – with butterfly doors inspired by fantasy films.
Coated with a glossy silver paint, the dual-twin exhaust looks futuristic on this rear-wheel drive car, which is expected to have performance rivalling that of a Ferrari.
Powered by a 3.3-litre engine, it will not be the most eco-friendly car on the planet, so it seems Hyundai are simply trying to grab headlines with a supercar which they say is brimming full of ‘cutting-edge technologies’.
In the very least, it looks mildly stylish, but is unlikely to ever hit the production line.
