New York Preview: Hyundai’s Concept Genesis V8, RWD
March 19, 2007 7:57PM by Michael Savio
Hyundai has dropped a few teaser sketches of its Concept Genesis that it will debut at the 2007 New York Auto Show. The Concept Genesis previews Hyundai’s large, V8-powered, rear-wheel drive sedan that we’ve seen plenty of spy shots. The new sedan, which we have called “Equus”, will mark two firsts for Hyundai in the U.S. — V8-power and rear-wheel drive.
The Concept Genesis will sit above Hyundai’s current range-topping Azera. While derivative, with its Camry-like grille, Hofmiester kink and Bangle-like rear, the Concept Genesis has a classy appearance.
No word on displacement and output figures of what’s under the hood, but we’ll let you know as soon as we find out.
