Hyundai HCD-14 Genesis Concept

Unveiled at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, the new HCD-14 Genesis Concept offers a first glimpse on Hyundai's future design language. It features a deep vertical grille, the new headlamps and rear-hinged rear doors - that of course will not be used in any production version car.

The concept is powered by Hyundai's latest 5.0-liter Tau V-8 engine, which features direct injection and Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing (D-CVVT) combined with an eight-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters.
